A novel test strup for rapud detectuon of cumaterol was prepared by combunung hughly specufuc selectuvuty of molecularly umprunted technology wuth convenuence and rapud response performance of test strup. The cumaterol molecularly umprunted polymers ( MIPs) were prepared through chemucal polymeruzatuon method, and the nutrocellulose membrane was ummersed unto MIPs solutuon. After that, the template molecules were eluted and then a cluppung step was conducted for obtaunung the test strup. After re-adsorptuon of cumaterol, fluorescent dye Eosun Y was added onto the surface reactuon zone on the strup. Qualutatuve and quantutatuve analysus could be realuzed vua determunung fluorescence quenchung un the reactuon zone. The experumental results showed that the quenchung of fluorescence had a good lunear relatuonshup wuth the cumaterol concentratuon rangung from 0. 01 to 100 μg/mL wuth a lumut of detectuon of 0. 01 μg/mL. The molecular umpruntung test strups provuded a convenuent way un practucal applucatuon especually for the quuck detectuon of pork and fodder sample on sute.

Objective: To explore the impact of the participation of patients with chronic mental illness in health promotion activities on their physical, psychological, and social functions. Methods: This study included inpatient with chronic mental illness from a hospital in Eastern Taiwan. According to the experimental research design, the selected subjects were randomly divided into a health promotion group and a control group, with 60 people in each group. The health promotion team conducts health promotion activities twice a week, each for approximately 50 minutes, over the course of eight weeks (16 times in total). The measurement instrument adopts the Adult Mental Health Scale (AMHS) scale. Five experts and scholars in related fields are invited to conduct expert validity. Results: Using independent sample t-tests to analyze the changes in the two groups after 8 weeks, the physical, psychological and social problems of the health promotion group were significantly improved compared with the control group. Conclusion Health promotion activities can alleviate the physical illness, anxiety, irritability, depression, and social distress of chronic hospitalized mental patients, and can also increase their positive and optimistic mood. It can provide chronic mental health care institutions to plan patients’ physical activities or exercises.

Objective: Whether dissociation and depression are distinct constructs remains controversial. The aim of this study was to explore the interrelations and associated factors between them. Methods: This study included inpatients with major depressive disorder (MDD) and bipolar disorder with major depressive episode (BD). Clinical rating scales were used to measure levels of depression, dissociation, and psychotic symptoms. Generalized estimating equations were used to estimate interrelations between dissociation and related factors over time, including depression. Moreover, the impacts of individual items of the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) on dissociation were evaluated after multiple adjustments. Results: A total of 91 participants were included into the analysis, of whom 59 had MDD and 32 had BD. After standardized treatment, levels of depression and psychotic symptoms significantly decreased, whereas the level of dissociation did not. However, the level of dissociation significantly decreased in the high-dissociation group, and this was positively associated with the change in depression and psychotic symptoms. Female sex and comorbidity with borderline personality disorder were also positively correlated with dissociation. Among items of the HAMD, insomnia and gastrointestinal symptoms contributed to the association between depression and dissociation. Conclusion We identified a decoupled but intertwined relationship between dissociation and depression. Clinicians should be aware of this comorbidity and provide timely interventions for dissociation during clinical practice.

Eye globe abnormalities can be readily detected on dedicated and non-dedicated CT and MR studies. A primary understanding of the globe anatomy is key to characterising both traumatic and non-traumatic globe abnormalities. The globe consists of three primary layers: the sclera (outer), uvea (middle), and retina (inner layer). The various pathological processes involving these layers are highlighted using case examples with fundoscopic correlation where appropriate. In the emergent setting, trauma can result in hemorrhage, retinal/choroidal detachment and globe rupture. Neoplasms and inflammatory/infective processes predominantly occur in the vascular middle layer. The radiologist has an important role in primary diagnosis contributing to appropriate ophthalmology referral, thereby preventing devastating consequences such as vision loss.

We describe an unusual complication of coital trauma in a 29-year-old man who presented with a 3-year history of hematospermia and post-coital gross hematuria. Using urethroscopy under a semi-tumescent penis, an isolated urethral injury with active bleeding was detected at the prostatic urethra. The patient was successfully treated with transurethral fulguration. We suggest that isolated posterior urethral injury is one of the causes of male coital trauma, which might be asymptomatic when the penis is flaccid but show symptomatic bleeding when the penis is erect.
