Objective To investigate the effects of different marriage modes of parents on mental health of Mosuo middle school students.Methods Basic information questionnaire and symptom checklist-90 (SCL-90)were adopted to compare and to analyze 226 Mosuo students' mental health condition with regard to different marriage modes of parents.Results (1) In the comparison between the students from Monogamous Marriage families and the students from the Walking marriage families,the mean scores of somatization and depression were higher in the former group than in the latter group(0.73 ± 0.59 vs 0.58 ± 0.46,P＜ 0.05 ;0.87 ±0.65 vs 0.70 ±0.52,P＜ 0.05).(2)Among the students fromWalking marriage families,the mean scores of interpersonal sensitivity,depression,anxiety and phobic anxiety were higher in girls than those in boys (1.10 ± 0.76 vs 0.80 ±0.47,P＜0.05;0.83 ±0.54 vs 0.58 ±0.48,P＜0.05;0.99 ±0.71 vs 0.62 ±0.48,P＜0.05;0.99 ±0.77 vs 0.55 ± 0.53,P＜ 0.05).(3) Among the students from Walking-Marriage families,some students had closer relationship with their fathers,and some were closer to maternal uncles,the mean scores of somatization,obsessivecompulsive factor and hostility were higher in the former sub-group than in the latter sub-group (0.69 ± 0.52 vs 0.43 ±0.34,P＜0.05;1.22 ±0.46 vs 1.01 ±0.59,P＜0.05;0.94±0.66 vs0.65 ±0.57,P＜0.05).Conclusion The mental health status of Mosuo students are different regarding the marriage modes of their parents.In the Walking-Marriage families,the mental health of Mosuo students has relationship with their gender and the male whom the students are closer to.

Objective To probe timely diagnosis and surgical intervention of traumatic diaphragmatic rupture(TDR). Methods The clinical data of 161 patients with TDR treated surgically in our department during the past 17 years were analyzed retrospectively in respects of diagnostic methods,accuracy of preoperative judgment of TDR,incidence of diaphragmatic hernia,surgical procedures and outcome,etc. Results There were 139 males and 22 females at a mean age of 32.4 years(9-84 years),with average ISS of 27.8 points(13-66 points).Of all patients,65.2%had shock at admission.For these 161 patients,36 suffered from blunt injuries and 125 from penetrating injuries.For diaphragmatic injury.preoperative diagnostic rate was 88.9%for blunt injuries and 78.4%for penetrating injuries (P＞0.01).The incidence of diaphragmatic hernia was 94.4%in blunt injuries and 14.4%in penetrating injuries(P＜0.05).In this series,thoracotomy was performed in 30 patients,laparotomy in 106,thoracotomy plus laparotomy in 18 and combined thoraco-laparotomy in 7,with overall fatality rate of 10.6%and a mean ISS of 41.6 points.The mortality rate was 22.2%in blunt injuries and 7.2%in penetrating injuries(P＜0.01).The main causes for death were hemorrhagic shock and septic complications; Conclusions Blunt diaphragmatic injury can be diagnosed by radiographic signs of diaphragmatic hernia.According to"offside sign",which implies a thoracic wound with positive physical or radiological signs in the abdomen or in the thorax,penetrating diaphragmatic injury can be recognized.To deal with diaphragmatic hernia,it is important to judge the vitality of viscera.Penetrating injury has a relatively good prognosis.

COVID-19 associated Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) caused by peripheral nerve damage after SARS-CoV-2 infection is one of the most common COVID-19 related nervous system inflammatory diseases, with high incidence of respiratory failure and mortality. Positive SARS-CoV-2 RNA in cerebrospinal fluid of COVID-19 associated GBS patients has been rarely reported. This paper reports 4 patients with COVID-19 associated GBS in China who developed neurological symptoms 4-15 days after fever and were confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection. All patients presented with progressive weakness of both lower limbs, 3 patients with autonomic dysfunction such as defecation and urination disorders, and 1 patient with polycranial neuritis and Miller-Fisher syndrome such as bilateral facial palsy, dysphagia, diplopia and ataxia. Nerve conduction velocity and F wave were abnormal in 3 patients, and motor conduction pathway was abnormal in 1 patient. Anti-ganglioside antibodies were tested in 3 patients, and GD1a-IgG was positive in 1 patient. All 4 patients underwent metagenomic next-generation sequencing examination in blood and cerebrospinal fluid. SARS-CoV-2 RNA was positive in blood and cerebrospinal fluid of 3 patients, and SARS-CoV-2 RNA was positive in cerebrospinal fluid of 1 patient.

Objective To study the process of single stent and double-stent thrombectomy at the Y-shaped bifurcation of the ideal internal carotid artery by finite element simulation, analyze the stent-thrombus-vessel interaction during the thrombectomy process based on the simulation results, and provide guidance for improving the effect of stent thrombectomy at the bifurcation. Methods The CAD software was used to build the model and the finite element analysis software was used to simulate the process of single stent and double-stent thrombectomy. Results Thrombectomy was unsuccessful in single stent model and successful in double-stent model, and the maximum stress of thrombus during embolus retrieval was twice that of single stent, the maximum strain was 1.12 times that of single stent, and the maximum contact pressure on the surface of vessel was approximately twice that of single stent. Conclusions Double Solitaire stents can effectively prevent thrombus displacement at the bifurcation and successfully retrieve the thrombus, but there is a risk of fracture due to the high stress level in the middle section of the thrombus. The contact pressure of the vessel on the anterior artery side is higher during thrombectomy, and the risk of vessel damage is greater. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize the design of the stent-retriever to improve its flexibility.

Objective:To evaluate the expression level of hsa-miR-422a in hypertrophic scars and to identify the target genes of hsa-miR-422a along with their biological functions using bioinformatics approaches.Methods:From June 2020 to December 2020, tissue samples of 3 hypertrophic scar and 3 normal skin were collected from patients (3 males, 3 females, aged 20-42 years) in Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Shanghai Ninth People′s Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine. Primary fibroblasts were isolated and cultured. Real-time quantitative PCR was performed to quantify the expression of hsa-miR-422a. To construct a ceRNA network, starbase and Target Scandata bases were utilized to predict genes as well as long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) that may sponge hsa-miR-422a. GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses were conducted on the target genes of hsa-miR-422a; protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks were constructed to identify the hub genes whose functions were predicted by functional enrichment analyses. The expression of hub genes was validated through real-time quantitative PCR in hypertrophic scars.Results:The expression of hsa-miR-422a was significantly lower in the hypertrophic scar tissue samples and fibroblasts compared to that in the normal skin ( P<0.05). 133 target genes as well as 1033 lncRNAs were predicted by starBase and TargetScandata bases and used to construct an hsa-miR-422a-centered ceRNA network. PPI networks of the target genes revealed 10 hub genes, including MAPK1, GRB2, and IGF1R, which were discovered to be related to protein serine/threonine/tyrosine kinase activity, ubiquitin protein ligase binding, fibroblast growth factor receptor signaling pathway, muscle cell proliferation, and many others; besides, they may be involved in FoxO, mTOR, Toll-like receptor, Ras, MAPK, PI3K-Akt signaling pathways and signaling pathways regulating pluripotency of stem cells. Three hub genes (MAPK1, GRB2, and IGF1R) were significantly upregulated in hypertrophic scars ( P<0.05). Conclusions:hsa-miR-422a is significantly downregulated in the hypertrophic scars and may target hub genes such as MAPK1 in ceRNA networks, ultimately modulating hypertrophic scar formation.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) develops on the mucosal epithelium of the oral cavity. It accounts for approximately 90% of oral malignancies and impairs appearance, pronunciation, swallowing, and flavor perception. In 2020, 377,713 OSCC cases were reported globally. According to the Global Cancer Observatory (GCO), the incidence of OSCC will rise by approximately 40% by 2040, accompanied by a growth in mortality. Persistent exposure to various risk factors, including tobacco, alcohol, betel quid (BQ), and human papillomavirus (HPV), will lead to the development of oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs), which are oral mucosal lesions with an increased risk of developing into OSCC. Complex and multifactorial, the oncogenesis process involves genetic alteration, epigenetic modification, and a dysregulated tumor microenvironment. Although various therapeutic interventions, such as chemotherapy, radiation, immunotherapy, and nanomedicine, have been proposed to prevent or treat OSCC and OPMDs, understanding the mechanism of malignancies will facilitate the identification of therapeutic and prognostic factors, thereby improving the efficacy of treatment for OSCC patients. This review summarizes the mechanisms involved in OSCC. Moreover, the current therapeutic interventions and prognostic methods for OSCC and OPMDs are discussed to facilitate comprehension and provide several prospective outlooks for the fields.
