Methods: The students in junior high school, high school and vocational high school were recruited from Haidian District using the stratified cluster random sampling method in October of 2019, and subjects' demographic features and use of e-cigarettes were collected using the Questionnaire for Survey on Tobacco Prevalence among Adolescents in China in 2019. The factors affecting e-cigarette use were identified among adolescents using the multivariable logistic regression analysis. Results: A total of 658 adolescents were investigated, including 315 junior high school students ( 47.87% ), 221 high school students ( 33.59% ), and 122 vocational high school students ( 18.54% ), and there were 261 boys ( 39.66% ), and 397 girls ( 60.34% ). There were 605 students that had heard of electronic cigarettes ( 91.95% ), 63 students that had used e-cigarettes (9.57%), and 23 students with current use of e-cigarettes ( 3.50% ), and there were 39 students that had never used electronic cigarettes but had a tendency of use in the future ( 6.55% ). Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified parental smoking ( OR=2.408, 95%CI: 1.179-4.916 ), close friends' smoking ( OR=3.597, 95%CI: 1.715-7.544 ) and cigarette smoking ( OR=23.029, 95%CI: 11.092-47.812 ) as factors affecting e-cigarette use among adolescents. Conclusions The prevalence of electronic cigarette uses is 9.57% among adolescents in Haidian District, Beijing. Parental smoking, peer smoking and use of cigarettes may facilitate the use of e-cigarettes among adolescents.

Objective To investigate the alterations of regional spontaneous activity in patients with classical trigeminal neuralgia (CTN) during resting state.Methods Twenty-seven patients with CTN (CTN group) and 27 healthy subjects (control group) were recruited and underwent a rest-state functional MRI.The regional homogeneity (ReHo) analysis was used to compare the differences of regional synchronization of spontaneous brain activity.And correlation tests were performed between ReHo values in the abnormal brain areas and clinical metrics (visual analogue scale and disease duration) of the disease.Results Compared with control group (P＜0.05,Gaussian random field correction),ReHo increased in bilateral primary somatosensory cortex (S1) and primary motor cortex (M1),right supplementary motor area (SMA),inferotemporal cortex and cerebellum,left thalamus,limbic lobe,parahippocampa gyrus,middle and superior temporal gyrus in CTN group;ReHo decreased in bilateral insula,prefrontal cortex and orbitofrontal cortex,right frontal medial cortex and superior temporal gyrus,left anterior cingulate area,supramarginal gyrus and cerebellum in CTN group.ReHo values in right frontal medial cortex was negatively correlated with the course of disease (r=-0.45,P=0.03).The ReHo values of left primary sensorimotor cortex were positively correlated with the visual analogue scale scores (r=0.46,P=0.02).Conclusion CTN patients has abnormal functional homogeneity of spontaneous brain activity in regions involved in the pain processing,which can help understanding mechanism of CTN.

Objective To investigate changes in expressions of activation antigens CD69 and HLA-DR in CD3+T lymphocytes in peripheral blood and skin lesions in patients with psoriasis vulgaris. Methods Peripheral blood samples were obtained from 20 patients with psoriasis vulgaris and 20 healthy controls, and skin specimens from the lesions of 15 out of the 20 patients and 10 healthy controls. Flow cytometry was performed to quantify the expressions of CD69 and HLA-DR in peripheral blood CD3+T cells, and an immunohistochemical study to measure the expression of HLA-DR in skin specimens. Statistical analysis was carried out by a two-sample t-test and Pearson correlation analysis with the SPSS 19.0 software. Results Compared with the healthy controls, the patients with psoriasis vulgaris showed increased expression rates of CD69 (4.70%± 1.90%vs. 1.56%± 0.95%, t=6.629, P<0.01)and HLA-DR (8.97%± 1.79% vs. 3.02% ± 1.15%, t= 6.204, P< 0.01)in peripheral blood. Pearson correlation analysis revealed that the percentage of CD3+HLA-DR+cells in peripheral blood was positively correlated with the psoriasis area and severity index (PASI)score (r=0.5626, P<0.05). The expression rate of HLA-DR was significantly higher in the dermis (64.87%± 17.31%vs. 19.80%± 5.69%, t=7.916, P<0.01), but lower in the epidermis(11.80%± 5.55%vs. 27.40%± 8.61%, t=5.479, P<0.01)in the psoriatic specimens compared with the control specimens. Immunohistochemically, HLA-DR was widely expressed in the dermis of psoriatic lesions, but mainly distributed around blood vessels in the control skin. Conclusions There is an aberrant activation of CD3+T cells in peripheral blood and inflammatory cells in skin lesions in patients with psoriasis vulgaris, and the percentage of CD3 +HLA-DR+ cells in peripheral blood is correlated with the severity of psoriasis vulagaris.

Objective: To apply eye-tracking technology to measure the fixation duration of children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) towards emotional faces, so as to provide potential objective indicators for the diagnosis and intervention of ASD. Methods: Case-control studies related to emotional faces in ASD children and adolescents aged 3-18 years were searched in PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI and Wanfang, with a search period spanning from the inception of the databases to April 1, 2024. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) was employed to assess the quality of the retrieved articles, and a Meta analysis was conducted by Stata 17.0 software. Results: A total of 18 articles were included, encompassing 361 participants in the ASD group and 413 in the control group. All studies scored ≥6 on the NOS, indicating high research quality. Compared to the control group, the ASD group demonstrated significantly shorter fixation duration ( P <0.01) towards specific emotional faces, including happy faces under the paradigm of self-made and same ethnicity emotional faces ( SMD =-1.05, -1.16), neutral faces in domestic literature ( SMD = -1.00), angry and sad faces under clinical diagnosis criteria ( SMD =-1.73, -1.29), and fearful faces under Chinese Classification and Diagnostic Criteria of Mental Disorders, Version 3 (CCMD-Ⅲ) ( SMD =-1.51). Conclusion Children and adolescents with ASD exhibit abnormal eye tracking indicators towards certain emotional faces, which may serve as early warning indicators for the diagnosis of ASD.

Objective:To explore the relationship between myopic refraction and near work in children and adolescents with different genetic risks.Methods:From September to December 2016, Nankai District and Hongqiao District of Tianjin were taken as the study sites. Using the method of stratified cluster random sampling, 533 children and adolescents aged 6-14 years from one primary school and one junior middle school in each of the two districts were included as the study subjects. Refraction measurements by an auto-kerato-refractor and questionnaire survey about near work were conducted. 11 single nucleotide polymorphisms in the selected myopia susceptibility genes were detected, and the genetic risk of each individual was scored. After grouping by genetic risk score, the relationship between myopia and near work was analyzed by the multivariate logistic regression, and the relationship between near work and refraction was analyzed by the multivariate linear regression.Results:The age of 553 subjects was (9.8±2.5) years, including 295 boys (53.3%). The overall detection rate of myopia was 62.0%. The spherical equivalent refraction (SER) was (-1.30±1.85) D. The results of the multivariate logistic regression showed that in the low risk group of GRS, compared with those with continuous near work time less than half an hour, those with continuous near work time no less than half an hour had a higher risk of myopia [ OR ( 95%CI) = 2.64 (1.07, 6.52)]. In the moderate risk group of GRS, the risk of myopia increased with the increase of daily computer use [ OR ( 95%CI) = 2.14 (1.03, 4.77)]. In the high risk group of GRS, the risk of myopia increased with the increase of the total daily reading and writing time [ OR ( 95%CI) = 1.27 (1.01, 1.59)]. The results of the multivariate linear regression showed that in the low risk group of GRS, with increase of 1 hour in the total daily reading and writing time and mobile phone time, the SER decreased by 0.18 D (95% CI:-0.30, -0.07) and 0.95 D (95% CI:-1.51, -0.39), respectively. In the moderate risk group of GRS, with increase of 1 hour in the total daily reading and writing time and computer use time, the SER decreased by 0.25 D (95% CI:-0.31, -0.18) and 0.57 D (95% CI:-0.97, -0.18), respectively. In the high risk group of GRS, with increase of 1 hour in the daily total reading and writing time, the SER decreased by 0.33 D (95% CI:-0.43, -0.22). Conclusion:Continuous near work time no less than half an hour, daily computer use time, the total daily reading and writing time, and daily mobile phone use time were associated with myopic refraction in children and adolescents.
