Objective:
To explore the impact of cognitive emotion regulation strategies on fear of negative evaluation among college students using a random forest algorithm in order to provide empirical evidence to support mental health improvements.
Methods:
In March 2024, a convenience sampling method was used to conduct an online survey with 5 750 college students from three universities in Wuhan, Hubei Province. A least squares regression model was employed to analyze whether cognitive emotion regulation strategies significantly influenced fear of negative evaluation. A random forest model was also constructed to identify predictors and rank the importance of various factors affecting fear of negative evaluation.
Results:
The least squares regression model indicated that cognitive emotion regulation strategies significantly impacted fear of negative evaluation among college students ( β=4.25, 95%CI=3.81-4.68, P <0.05). Family support, including mild impairment ( β=-2.71, 95%CI =-3.36 to -2.06, P <0.05) and severe impairment in the domain ( β=-1.64, 95%CI =-2.27 to -1.01, P <0.05), were associated with increased fear. The random forest model further revealed that cognitive emotion regulation strategies, family support index, and academic ranking were the main factors affecting the fear of negative evaluation among college students.
Conclusions
Cognitive emotion regulation strategies are key factors influencing fear of negative evaluation among college students. Universities should provide enhanced mental health resources, offer training to strengthen cognitive emotion regulation strategies, and offer additional support to students with low family support.

Objective:To assess the changes of cardiac output (CO)-related indices in healthy term reproductive age pregnant women during labor.Methods:A prospective longitudinal study was conducted, involving 208 pregnant women at term who were at an reproductive age and admitted to the labor ward of Tianjin Central Hospital of Obstetrics and Gynecology from October 2020 to March 2021. The internal diameter of the aortic root, velocity-time integral of aortic valve flow, and heart rate were obtained through transthoracic echocardiography during uterine contractions period and the intervals between contractions in the latent phase, active phase, and the second stage of labor, as well as at one hour after delivery. Stroke volume (SV), CO, and cardiac index (CI) were then calculated. Comparisons among groups were performed using t-test, analysis of variance, or Wilcoxon test. CO-related indices during contractions periods and intervals between contractions were compared using paired t-test, those in each stage of labor using repeated measurement analysis of variance. Results:(1) CO-related indices in contractions periods vs intervals between contractions during labor: In the latent phase, maternal heart rate [79(72 -84) vs 76(70 -85) bpm, Z=-2.03, P<0.05], SV [(77.9±13.4) vs (71.1±12.8) ml, t=-13.98, P<0.05], CO [(6.1 ±1.2) vs (5.5 ±1.1) L/min, t=-14.19, P<0.05], and CI [(3.5 ±0.7) vs (3.1 ±0.6) L/(min·m 2), t=-14.29, P<0.05] during contractions were higher than those during the intervals. These parameters during contractions in the active phase and the second stage of labor were all higher than those during the intervals in the same stage (all P<0.05). (2) CO-related indices in each period of labor: Heart rate, CO, and CI during the intervals between contractions gradually increased along with labor progression and reached the peak at the second stage followed by a decrease at one hour after delivery, and a similar trend was also observed for these parameters during contractions in the whole labor (all P<0.05). No significant changes in the maternal SV during intervals between contractions were observed during the labor( P=0.366), while the figure during contractions showed a decreased trend along with the course of labor and declined to a nadir in the second stage (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Cardiac output related indices change significantly in healthy term reproductive age pregnant women during labor, especially in the second stage of labor. Therefore, correct monitoring and management of hemodynamic changes during labor are of great importance in the stability of cardiovascular function throughout labor.

Objective:To investigate the detection rate and related factors of thyroid nodules in people with abnormal lipid metabolism.Methods:From September 4, 2016 to February 1, 2017, community residents living in Lanzhou City, Longnan City, Dingxi City and Linxia City of Gansu Province for more than 5 years were selected as the respondents. General data were recorded, venous blood was collected, blood lipid related biochemical indexes were detected, and thyroid ultrasound was performed. By comparing the general data and biochemical indexes, the detection of abnormal lipid metabolism and thyroid nodules were analyzed, and the risk factors of thyroid nodules in people with abnormal lipid metabolism were analyzed by logistic regression.Results:Two thousand and fifty-nine residents were included in this study (1 049 males and 1 010 females). The total detection rate of thyroid nodules was 23.17% (477/2 059). The detection rate of thyroid nodules in people with abnormal lipid metabolism [34.16%(151/442)] was significantly higher than that in people with normal lipid metabolism [20.16% (326/1 617) , P < 0.01], and the detection rate of thyroid nodules of women [43.37% (85/196) ] was higher than that of men [26.83% (66/246) , P < 0.01]. Among the people with abnormal lipid metabolism, the highest detection rate of thyroid nodules was in mixed hyperlipidemia [57.14% (16/28)], followed by hypertriglyceridemia [34.59% (92/266)]. The detection rates of thyroid nodules in the groups with elevated total cholesterol (TC) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels [35.16% (32/91), 34.85% (23/66)] were higher than those in the marginal elevated group [27.04%(86/318), 30.42% (73/240)] and the normal groups [21.76% (359/1 650), 21.73% (381/1 753), P < 0.05]. The results of logistic regression analysis showed that the risk factors of thyroid nodules in people with abnormal lipid metabolism were increased age, elevated fasting blood glucose (FPG), elevated blood glucose 2 hours (2 h PG) after oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) load and elevated glycosylated hemoglobin [HbA1c, odds ratio ( OR)=1.065, 1.387, 1.866, 1.384, P < 0.05]. Conclusions:The prevalence of TN is higher in populations with abnormal lipid metabolism. The control of blood sugar and blood lipid levels may play a role in the prevention of thyroid nodules.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy of internal fixation of lateral and medial borders for displaced scapular body fractures via the minimally invasive approach. METHODS: The internal fixation of lateral and medial borders via minimally invasive approach was applied in surgical treatment of 23 patients with scapular body comminuted fractures from January 2014 to June 2018. The lateral approach was made straightly orienting over the lateral border of scapula. The dissection was taken down to the deltoid fascia. The deltoid was retracted cephalically, revealing the external rotators. Blunt dissection was used down to the lateral border between infraspinatus and teres minor, exposing the fracture site. The medial incision was done along the medial border of the scapula over site of the fracture. Dissections were taken down to the fascia and the periosteum. A subperiosteal dissection was then performed to elevate the infraspinatus to the degree necessary to visualize the fracture. The medial and lateral borders of scapula body were fixed with plates and screws in a frame-like way. RESULTS One patient developed the delayed healing of the incisions due to liquefactive fat necrosis. The other 22 patients showed no complications of the incisions. The glenopolar angle (GPA) of fractured scapula was increased from preoperative (25±12) degrees to postoperative (41±5) degrees (P<0.01). The healing time of fractures healed was 3-8 months, with an average time of (4.4±1.3) months. CONCLUSIONS The lateral-medial combined fixation through minimally invasive surgical approach for the scapula body fractures allows visualization of fracture reduction without extensive muscular or subcutaneous flaps, and is associated with successful fracture healing and high functional scores of the shoulder.
