Objective Mycoplasma pneumoniae is one of the main pathogens of community-acquired pneumonia in children and teenagers , which may cause mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia ( MPP) .Atelectasis is one of the most common manifestations of MPP.The aim of the article was to evaluate the diagnostic and therapeutic value of fiberoptic bronchoscopy ( FB) in children with MPP associated with atelectasis . Methods Retrospective analysis were made on clinical data and FB records of 99 cases of hospitalized children with MPP associated with atelectasis from August 2010 to December 2012 . Results The positive rate of MP-DNA was 92.9%(92/99) in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), and the positive rate of MP-Ab-IgM in serum was 68.7%(68/99).All pa-tients showed obviously bronchial mucosa congestive edema during FB examination .The results are as follows:bronchial phlegm bloc-king in 31 cases (31.3%), lumen inflammatory stenosis in 22 cases (22.2%),mucosal ulcer change in 7 cases(7.1%) and mucous nodular change in 3 cases (3.0%).4 weeks after being treated with bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), only 3 cases remained in atelec-tasis, the partial and complete re-expansion rate reaching 96.5%(82 of 85). Conclusion The positive rate of BALF MP-DNA de-tection technology for the diagnosis of MP infection is higher than that of serum MP-Ab-IgM examination .Early interventional therapy by FB can shorten the course of disease and promote the lung re-expansion in children with MPP associated with atelectasis .

Objective:To establish a rat model of erectile dysfunction caused by the injury of the cavernous nerve. Methods:Rats topographical anatomy were done for identifing the cavernous nerve and major pelvic ganglion and pelvic nerve and hypogastric nerve .Polygraph intracavernous pressure of the models were detected continuously and evaluated. Results:Erectile process was controlled by erectile nerve. Major pelvic ganglion includes two inflows,they are called pelvic nerve and hypogastric nerve. The largest outflow is cavernous nerve. The injury of the cavernous nerve will lead to erectile dysfunction. Conclusion:Rat can be an ideal animal model for studying the erectile dysfunction caused by cavernous nerve injury. The neuvological mechanism of erectile dysfunction can be evaluated with determination of intracavernous pressure.

Objective To explore the feasibility of intravoxel incoherent motion DWI (IVIM-DWI) in differential diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH).Methods A total of 407 patients with clinically-suspected HCC or FNH underwent conventional and dynamic enhanced MRI and IVIM-DWI,60 patients (40 cases of HCC,20 cases of FNH) were enrolled.Parameters of ADC,slow apparent diffusion coefficient (D),fast apparent diffusion coefficient (D*) and fraction of fast apparent diffusion coefficient (f) were obtained by monoexponential model and biexponential model respectively.Results The values of ADC,D,D* and f in FNH group were (1.60±-0.25) × 10-3mm2/s,(1.12±0.17)×10-3mm2/s,(44.89±18.23)× 10-3 mm2/s and (34.80 ± 9.68)％,and those in HCC group were (1.32 ± 0.21) × 10-3 mm2/s,(0.82±-0.21) × 10-3mm2/s,(49.82±20.11) × 10 3mm2/s and (28.72±13.84) ％,respectively.Significant inter-group differences were observed in ADC and D (both P＜0.001),however,there were no significant differences in D* and f (both P＞0.05).The areas under the ROC curve of D were 0.90,and taking D=0.96 × 10-3 mm2/s as cut-off value,the sensitivity and specificity of D in diagnosis of HCC were 84.44％ and 90.02％.Conclusion IVIM-DWI is useful to distinguish FNH from HCC,and the D value in biexponential model has the best diagnostic efficacy for differentiations.

Objective: To explore the longitudinal relationship between upward social comparison and online aggressive behavior among college students, in order to provide an empirical evidence for educators to carry out mental health promotion for college students. Methods: From December 2021 to March 2022, 539 college students from one university in Inner Mongolia were recruited to complete the Upward Social Comparison Questionnaire (USCQ) and Online Aggressive Behavior Scale (OABS) in a 4 month follow-up study. The structural equation model was used to conduct cross-lagged analysis. Results: The mean scores of upward social comparison for college students tracked at baseline (T1) and 4 months follow-up (T2) were (2.77±0.93, 2.70±1.00) points, and the mean scores of online aggressive behavior were (1.06±0.13, 1.05±0.11) points. There were positive relations between upward social comparison and online aggressive behavior of college students at both cross-sectional levels ( r=0.14-0.19, P <0.05). In the autoregression, T1 upward social comparison could positively predict T2 upward social comparison ( β =0.66), and T1 online aggressive behavior could positively predict T2 online aggressive behavior ( β =0.47)( P <0.01); In the cross-lagged regression, T1 upward social comparison could positively predict T2 online aggressive behavior ( β=0.10, P <0.01), whereas T1 online aggressive behavior could not predict T2 upward social comparison ( β=0.04, P >0.05). Conclusion Upward social comparison is the cause of online aggressive behavior among college students. The probability of online aggressive behavior among college students should be reduced by guiding students to correctly view the gap between themselves and others.

Background: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional bowel disorder (FBD). Objectives: To assess the therapeutic effects of paeoniflorin (PF) on IBS in rats.Method: Sixty male Sprague–Dawley rats were randomly divided into normal, model, positive drug, low-dose PF, medium-dose PF and high-dose PF groups (n = 10). After gavage for 2 consecutive weeks, the effect of PF on abdominal pain symptoms was assessed based on the abdominal withdrawal reflex (AWR) score, fecal water content and pathological changes in colon tissues. D-lactate, interleukin-1β (IL-1β), transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and phosphorylated nuclear factor kappa B (p-NF-κB) p65 was detected by Western blotting. The abundance and diversity changes of intestinal flora were explored using 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing.Result: In PF groups, the mucosal morphology of colon tissues was intact, and the glands were arranged neatly and structured clearly, without obvious inflammatory cell infiltration.Compared with the model group, PF groups had significantly elevated pain threshold, and mRNA and protein levels of zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) and occludin, decreased AWR score at 20 mmHg pressure, fecal water content, mRNA levels of IL-1β, TGF-β, and TNF-α, protein level of p-NF-κB p65 and level of serum D-lactate, and reduced levels of serum IL-1β, TGF-β, and TNF-α (p < 0.05, p < 0.01). PF groups had higher abundance of Lactobacillus, Akkermansia, Alistipes, and Bacteroides, but lower abundance of Desulfovibrio, Parasutterella, and Enterococcus than those of the model group. Conclusions PF exerts therapeutic effects on IBS in rats probably by regulating the intestinal flora, and then up-regulating the expressions of ZO-1 and occludin in colon tissue while down-regulating the levels of IL-1β, TGF-β, TNF-α, D-lactate and p-NF-κB p65.

Objective To evaluate the value of 3.0T magnetic resonance multi-b value diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in evaluating the efficacy of chemotherapy for patients with central lung squamous cell carcinoma and atelectasis. Methods Twenty patients with lung squamous cell carcinoma were examined by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (including T1WI, T2WI and multi-b value DWI) before chemotherapy, 2 cycles of chemotherapy and 4 cycles of chemotherapy. The images, the tumor volume and changes of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) were analyzed. Results In the patients with central lung cancer and atelectasis, the tumor and atelectasis could be distinguished on MRI examination before radiotherapy. It was more easily identified on T2WI images after radiotherapy. In the 20 patients, the ADC values in the effective group (partial remission or complete remission) and the invalid group were increased, but the differences of ADC values in the effective group before chemotherapy, 2 cycles and 4 cycles of chemotherapy were statistically significant [b=800 s/mm2:(1.09 ± 0.52) × 10-6 mm2/s, (1.22 ± 0.59) × 10-6 mm2/s, (1.24 ± 0.52) × 10-6 mm2/s, F = 31.19, P < 0.001]. There was no significant difference in ADC values between before and after chemotherapy (b = 800 s/mm2: (1.10 ± 0.49) × 10-6 mm2/s, (1.16 ± 0.60) × 10-6 mm2/s, (1.20 ± 0.72) × 10-6 mm2/s, F=2.86, P=0.089]. When b=800 s/mm2, the ADC curve slope in the effective group was more stable, better linearity. Conclusions The MRI technique can accurately distinguish the tumor from atelectasis before and after chemotherapy. The change of ADC value after chemotherapy is earlier than that of morphological change. The change rate of b value can better evaluate the curative effect of chemotherapy.

Trauma and surgery sometimes cause erectile dysfunction because of injury to pelvic nerves and cavernous nerves of the penis. The ideal treatment is to make the injured nerves regenerate themselves and erectile function recover completely. This paper reviews the recent advances in the studies of erigentes regeneration and plerosis following injury in order to find the best method to enhance erigentes regeneration.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the genetic etiology of a fetus with Cornelia de Lange syndrome type 1. METHODS: Clinical data of the fetus was collected. Genomic DNA was extracted from amniotic fluid and peripheral blood samples of the parents and subjected to low-depth copy number variant sequencing, whole exome sequencing (WES) and Sanger sequencing. Pathogenicity of the candidate variant was predicted based on the guidelines of American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG). Minigene assay was used to assess the effect of the variant on mRNA splicing. RESULTS: WES revealed that the fetus has harbored a heterozygous c.5808+5gG>A variant in the intron of the NIPBL gene, which was predicted to affect the mRNA splicing. The same variant was not detected in either parent. The variant was not recorded in ExAC, 1000G and dbSNP databases. Comprehensive analysis showed that the variant was deleterious and may result in skipping of exon 31 during mRNA splicing. CONCLUSION The fetus was diagnosed with Cornelia de Lange syndrome type 1. Splicing variant identified by WES may be verified by minigene assay in vitro, which can provide more evidence for the prediction of its pathogenicity.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between childhood abuse experience and suicide attitude among male prisoners, and the mediating effect of impact of event and thought suppression.Methods:Totally 370 male prisoners were tested by personal report of childhood abuse(PRCA), impact of event scale(IES), white bear suppression inventory(WBSI) and suicide attitude inventory(SAI). SPSS 22.0 was used for correlation analysis, regression analysis and other statistical analysis.Results:The scores of PRCA, IES, WBSI and SAI were (2.60±0.62), (2.69±0.62), (2.83±0.79), (3.06±0.61), respectively.There were significant differences in the scores of PRCA, IES and WBSI among different suicide attitude groups( F=42.69, 51.06, 78.76, all P<0.01). After controlling age variables, positive correlation was observed between PRCA, IES, WBSI and SAI ( r=0.38-0.76, all P<0.01). Impact of event and thought suppression played a mediating role in the relationship between childhood abuse experience and suicide attitude among male prisoners.The mediating effect included three paths: one was the single mediating effect of impact of event, the other was the single mediating effect of thought suppression and the third was the chain mediating effect of impact of event and thought suppression, and the effect values were 0.29, 0.23 and 0.05, respectively. Conclusion:Childhood abuse experience not only directly influences male prisoners' suicide attitude, but also indirectly influences their suicide attitude through the mediating effects of impact of event and thought suppression.
