Objective:
To explore the core features of trait aggression in children and adolescents, so as to provide a theoretical basis for behavioral interventions targeting the central psychological characteristics of aggression in children and adolescents.
Methods:
From March to May 2020, a simple random convenience sampling method was employed to recruit 39 165 students from grades 4 to 12 in Sichuan, Chongqing, Guizhou, and Shandong. Data were collected via online questionnaires, with all participants completing the Chinese Version of the Aggression Questionnaire. Psychometric network analysis was utilized for data processing.
Results:
Trait aggression among Chinese children and adolescents was at a moderately low level. The core nodes of the network structure included physical aggression [if someone intentionally causes trouble for me, I will hit them severely (AGG6); if someone hits me, I will retaliate (AGG11)] and self aggression [When I am very irritable, I think of hurting myself (AGG5); when I am in a bad mood, I engage in behaviors that harm my health, such as overeating (AGG25)]. Across grade levels, core nodes primarily originated from the anger dimension [When I m angry, I feel like a powder magazine that could explode at any moment (AGG13); I can t control my temper (AGG18); I am prone to getting angry when I see things that are not pleasing to the eye (AGG23); I will get angry for no reason (AGG27)]. Except for grades 7 and 9, core nodes in other grades included the verbal aggression dimension [I am prone to arguments with people (AGG22)]. Before grade 8, core nodes incorporated the self aggression dimension (AGG 5, AGG 25); after grade 8, core nodes included the physical aggression dimension [AGG 6, AGG 11, I fight slightly more than others (AGG16), and if people around me make things difficult for me to a certain extent, I will fight with them (AGG26)]. No statistically significant differences were found in the trait aggression network structures across grades, genders, or within gender comparisons of different grades.
Conclusion
These findings broaden our understanding of aggression in children and adolescents, suggesting that behavioral interventions can effectively reduce aggressive behaviors in this population.

Objective:To verify the predictive value of the Second Revision of the International Staging System (R2-ISS) in newly diagnosed patients with multiple myeloma (MM) who underwent first-line autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in a new drug era in China.Methods:This multicenter retrospective cohort study enrolled patients with newly diagnosed MM from three centers in China (Beijing Chao-Yang Hospital, Capital Medical University; the First Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University, and the Second Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University) from June 2008 to June 2018. A total of 401 newly diagnosed patients with MM who were candidates for ASCT were enrolled in this cohort, all received proteasome inhibitor and/or immunomodulator-based induction chemotherapy followed by ASCT. Baseline and follow-up data were collected. The patients were regrouped using R2-ISS. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the survival curve and two survival curves were compared using the log-rank test. Cox regression analysis were performed to analyze the relationship between risk factors and survival.Results:The median age of the patients was 53 years (range 25-69 years) and 59.5% (240 cases) were men. Newly diagnosed patients with renal impairment accounted for 11.5% (46 cases). According to Revised-International Staging System (R-ISS), 74 patients (18.5 %) were diagnosed with stage Ⅰ, 259 patients (64.6%) with stage Ⅱ, and 68 patients (17.0%) with stage Ⅲ. According to the R2-ISS, the distribution of patients in each group was as follows: 50 patients (12.5%) in stage Ⅰ, 95 patients (23.7%) in stage Ⅱ, 206 patients (51.4%) in stage Ⅲ, and 50 patients (12.5%) in stage Ⅳ. The median follow-up time was 35.9 months (range, 6-119 months). According to the R2-ISS stage, the median PFS in each group was: 75.3 months for stage Ⅰ; 62.0 months for stage Ⅱ, 39.2 months for stage Ⅲ, and 30.3 months for stage Ⅳ; and the median OS was not reached, 86.6 months, 71.6 months, and 38.5 months, respectively. There were statistically significant differences in PFS and OS between different groups (both P<0.001). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that stages Ⅲ and Ⅳ of the R2-ISS were independent prognostic factors for PFS ( HR=2.37, 95% CI 1.30-4.30; HR=4.50, 95% CI 2.35-9.01) and OS ( HR=4.20, 95% CI 1.50-11.80; HR=9.53, 95% CI 3.21-28.29). Conclusions:The R2-ISS has significant predictive value for PFS and OS for transplant-eligible patients with MM in the new drug era. However, the universality of the R2-ISS still needs to be further verified in different populations.

Objective To investigate the application prospect of the most extensive genome engineering pig internationally in preclinical xenotransplantation. Methods Porcine endogenous retrovirus (PERV) knockout combined with 3 major heterologous antigen gene knockouts and 9 humanized genes for inhibition of complement activation, regulation of coagulation disorders, anti-inflammatory and anti-phagocytosis were transferred into a pig (PERV-KO/3-KO/9-TG) as a donor, and the heart, liver and kidney were obtained and transplanted to 3 Rhesus macaque recipients respectively to establish a preclinical research model of pig-to-Rhesus macaque xenotransplantation. The functional status of xenografts after blood flow reconstruction was observed and the survival of recipients was summarized. The hemodynamics of xenografts were monitored. The change of hematological indexes of each recipient was compared. The histopathological manifestation of xenografts was observed. Results After the blood flow was reconstructed, all xenografts showed ruddy color, soft texture and good perfusion. The transplant heart, liver and kidney showed full arterial and venous blood flow and good perfusion at 1 d after operation. The postoperative survival time of heart, liver, and kidney transplant recipients was 7, 26, and 1 d, respectively. The levels of creatine kinase, creatine kinase isoenzyme, and lactate dehydrogenase increased in heart transplant recipient at 1 d after operation, and gradually recovered to near normal levels at 6 d after operation. All indexes increased sharply at 7 d after operation. The level of aspartate aminotransferase increased in liver transplant recipients at 2 d after operation, and the alanine aminotransferase basically returned to normal at 10 d after operation, but the total bilirubin continued to increase. Both aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase increased at 12 d after operation, and reached a peak at 15 d after operation. The kidney transplant recipient developed mild proteinuria at 1 d after operation, and died of sudden severe arrhythmia. Histopathology showed that the tissue structure of cardiac and renal xenografts was close to normal, and liver xenografts presented with patchy necrosis, the liver tissue structure was disordered, accompanied by inflammatory damage, interstitial hemorrhage and thrombotic microangiopathy. Conclusions PERV-KO/3-KO/9-TG pig shows advantages in overcoming hyperacute rejection, mitigating humoral rejection and coagulation dysregulation. However, whether it can be used as potential donor for clinical xenotransplantation needs further evaluation.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics, prevention and treatment of multi-drug resistant organisms (MDROs) infection early after renal transplantation from donation after citizen's death. Methods Clinical data of 166 patients undergoing allogeneic renal transplantation and regular follow-up in Xijing Hospital from November 2011 to September 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. General conditions were statistically compared between the recipients undergoing renal transplantation from donation after cardiac death (DCD) and their counterparts receiving living related donor renal transplantation. The incidence of MDROs infection, onset time, course of diseases, complications, infection site and etiological type were observed. The therapeutic methods and clinical prognosis were summarized. Results The incidence of MDROs infection early after renal transplantation in the recipients undergoing DCD renal transplantation was 14%, significantly higher than 2% in those receiving living related donor renal transplantation, and 13% and 2% for the incidence of delayed graft function with statistical significance (both P<0.05). The incidence of renal graft loss was 8%and 2%, and 5% and 1% for the mortality rate without statistical significance between two groups (both P>0.05). MDROs infection occurred in 11 patients after DCD renal transplantation. The most common infection site was urinary system(n=6) and the most prevalent pathogenic bacterium was Escherichia coli (n=4). All patients infected with MDROs were treated with a sufficient dosage of effective antibiotics according to the outcomes of bacterial culture and drug sensitivity test. Eight patients obtained favorable clinical prognosis, one underwent nephrectomy and two died. Conclusions The incidence of MDROs infection early after DCD renal transplantation is higher than that after living related-donor renal transplantation. Strict donor screening, early detection, intimate monitoring and timely treatment can effectively reduce the risk of MDROs and enhance clinical prognosis.

Objective To discuss the optimal operation mode and operation path in minimally invasive technique for living donor nephrectomy.Methods From September 2013 to August 2015, 68 living donor nephrectomy was retrospectively reviewed. Thirty-one patients were performed with robotic-assisted laparoscopic living donor nephrectomy(robotic group), twenty-nine patients underwent totally retroperitoneal laparoscopic living donor nephrectomy(non hand assisted group),and eight patients were performed with hand assisted retroperitoneal laparoscopic living donor nephrectomy(hand assisted group). Operation time, warm ischemia time, intraoperative hemorrhage volume, hospitalization time, complications and preoperative and postoperative serum creatinine value of the recipients between the two groups were compared.Results The operations of three groups were all performed successfully. Intraoperative hemorrhage volume in the three groups were(39±15)ml,(62±37)ml and(53±19)ml, and there were significant differences between these groups(P<0.05). But hospitalization time ,operation time, warm ischemia time and complications occurred rate in the three groups had no significant difference(P>0.05). In robotic group,2 donors occurred with splenic injury during operation and 1 donor was detected with hemorrhage after operation. In non-hand assisted group, 1 donor occurred with urinary tract infection, 1 donor occurred with external iliac vein thrombosis. In hand assisted group 1 donor was detected with wound fat liquefaction after operation. All the donors were followed up for more than 9 months, no hypertension, proteinuria and renal dysfunction complications were detected. The blood creatinine in three groups of recipients after operation of 5th day and 28th day were(118±26)μmol/L, (130±33)μmol/L,(128±41)μmol/L and(114±17)μmol/L,(116±34)μmol/L,(115±29)μmol/L, respectively, and there was no statistical difference(P>0.05).Conclusions Minimally invasive technique for living donor nephrectomy is beneficial to patients' recovery. Surgery doctors should combine personal experience and the hospital's hardware conditions and other factors. The principle is to ensure the donor's safety and to balance the interests of the donor and the recipient, to choose their own most skilled way of surgery.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment regimen for patients with chronic diarrhea after renal transplantation.Methods The clinical data of 353 patients with chronic diarrhea who underwent renal allograft transplantation at Department of Urology of Xijing Hospital from January 2007 to June 2014 with regular follow-up were analyzed retrospectively.The occurrence of chronic diarrhea after renal transplantation was observed,including incidence,time of occurrence,course of disease and complications. The changes in general conditions and auxiliary examination indexes (body mass index,anemia and other auxiliary examination indexes),treatment and prognosis of the patients with chronic diarrhea were recorded. Results Fifteen cases (4.2%) of 353 renal transplant recipients had chronic diarrhea. The time of symptomatic and etiological treatment was (15 ±7 ) d.Two patients died during diarrhea (died from gastrointestinal hemorrhage and sudden death caused by severe hypokalemia respectively)and other patients were recovered.Among the 13 patients,5 cases had good prognosis,2 cases died (both died from pulmonary infection),5 cases suffered from renal allograft dysfunction and 1 case suffered from renal allograft insufficiency during the follow-up.Conclusions The etiology of chronic diarrhea after renal transplantation is complex and the patients should receive symptomatic and etiological treatment.The patients with chronic diarrhea after renal transplantation combined with severe complications have poor prognosis.

Aim To investigate the effect and mecha-nism of quercetin combined with cisplatin on prolifera-tion and apoptosis of human osteosarcoma cell line MG-63 . Methods MG-63 cells were treated with quercetin alone or combined with cisplatin. Cellular morphologic changes were observed under inverted phase contrast microscope. The effects of proliferation inhibition were assayed by CCK-8 method. The combination effect was judged through Chou-Talaly analysis. The apoptosis ra-tios of cells were analyzed by flow cytometry. The gene expression of Bcl-2 and caspase-3 was detected by RT-PCR assay. The protein expression of Bcl-2 and caspase-3 was measured by Western blot assay. Re-sults Quercetin alone or combined with cisplatin could inhibit the proliferation, but induce the apoptosis of MG-63 cells. Combination of quercetin and cisplatin revealed a synergistic effect on cell proliferation and apoptosis as it reduced the expression of Bcl-2 but en-hanced that of caspase-3 at both gene and protein lev-els. Conclusion Synergistic effect of quercetin com-bined with cisplatin on cell proliferation and apoptosis of MG-63 cells is possibly due to reduction of Bcl-2 and enhancement of caspase-3 expression.
