Objective:To describe functional disability rate of anxiety disorders in Chinese community adults and explore related risk factors of functional disability.Methods:To conduct in-depth data analysis on China Mental Health Survey(CMHS).The diagnostic tool for anxiety disorders was the Composite International Diagnostic Inter-view-3.0,according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders,Fourth Edition(DSM-Ⅳ).The World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule,2nd edition,was the functional disability assessment standard for anxiety disorders.Weighted 12-month functional disability rate of DSM-Ⅳ anxiety disorder with co-morbidities and only anxiety disorder in population and those in patients,as well as days of partial disability were calculated.The effects of anxiety disorders comorbid other mental disorders and physical diseases and demographic factors on the severity and occurrence of functional disability were analyzed by multiple linear regression and logis-tic regression.Results:The functional disability rate of anxiety disorder with comorbidities in population was 1.7％,and 42.2％in patients,in which constituent rate of grade-four disability was the highest as 84.1％.The functional disability rate of only anxiety disorder in population was 0.3％,and 17.8％in patients.The medians of days of partial disability days in the past 30 days were from 0 to 14.42.Multiple linear regression showed a positive association between comorbid anxiety disorder with other mental disorders and physical diseases(β=0.24),comor-bid other mental disorders and physical diseases(β=0.21),physical diseases(β=0.18),comorbid anxiety disor-der and physical diseases(β=0.15),comorbid anxiety disorder with other mental disorders(β=0.08),other men-tal disorders(β=0.07),only anxiety disorder(β=0.06),lower education level(β=0.12),lower economic status(β=0.08),older age(β=0.06),non-marital status(β=0.06),male(β=0.02)and the severity of functional dis-ability.Logistic regression showed that comorbid anxiety with other mental disorders and physical diseases(OR=64.07),comorbid anxiety disorders with other mental disorders(OR=36.75),comorbid other mental disorders with physical diseases(OR=20.60),comorbid anxiety with physical diseases(OR=18.88),anxiety disorder(OR=9.20),other mental disorders(OR=6.65),physical diseases(OR=4.00),65 years old and over(OR=4.40),50 to 64 years old(OR=2.33),low economic status(OR=2.10),illiterate and below primary school educational level(OR=1.89),middle economic status(OR=1.70),elementary school educational level(OR=1.59),non-marital status(OR=1.47),male(OR=1.16)were the risk factors of the occurrence of functional disability.Conclusion:Comorbidity of anxiety disorders and other mental disorders,and physical diseases increases severity and occurrence of functional disability.Comorbidity,male,gender,older age,lower economic and educa-tional level and non-marital are risk factors of anxiety disorder functional disability.

Objective:To describe and analyze suicide risk of patients with schizophrenia,major depressive disorder,and bipolar disorder.Methods:A total of 2 016 patients with schizophrenia,903 patients with major de-pressive disorder,and 381 patients with bipolar disorder from inpatients,clinics,or communities who met the diag-nostic criteria of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,Fifth Edition were recruited.All patients were interviewed by psychiatrists using the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview to diagnose mental disor-ders and assess suicide risk,as well as Clinical-Rated Dimensions of Psychosis Symptom Severity(CRDPSS)to as-sess symptoms.Differences and risk factors of suicide risk among three types of mental disorders were explored u-sing multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results:In the past one month,37 patients with schizophrenia(1.8％),516 patients with major depressive disorder(57.1％),and 102 patients with bipolar disorder(26.8％)had suicide risk.Compared with patients with schizophrenia,suicide risk in patients with major depressive disorder(OR=36.50)and bipolar disorder(OR=20.10)increased.Female(OR=1.87),smoking(OR=1.76),family history of suicide(OR=5.09),higher score of CRDPSS hallucination(OR=1.80),and higher score of CRDPSS depression(OR=1.54)were risk factors of suicide risk of patients.Conclusions:Suicide risk of patients with ma-jor depressive disorder and bipolar disorder is higher than that of patients with schizophrenia.In clinical practice,it is important to regularly assess suicide risk of patients.Patients who experience symptoms of hallucination and de-pression should be paid more attention to.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics and related socio-demographic factors of schizo-phrenia patients with different ages of onset.Methods:Totally 2 016 patients with schizophrenia aged 15 to 70 were selected according to the diagnostic criteria for schizophrenia in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,Fifth Edition.All of the patients were interviewed by psychiatrists using the Mini International Neuropsy-chiatric Interview to diagnose schizophrenia,Clinical-Rated Dimensions of Psychosis Symptom Severity(CRDPSS)and the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale(PANSS)to assess symptoms.The cut-off points were 18 and 25 years old for three age groups,i.e.early onset(EOS),youth onset(YOS)and adult onset(AOS).Statistical analy-ses were performed by analysis of variance Pearson correlation analysis,and multivariate linear regression.Results:The early-onset patients had the highest total PANSS score(73.8±28.0)and CRDPSS score(11.7±5.4).Fe-male gender,high education level,Han ethnicity,early onset age,and slower onset of illness were negatively corre-lated with the total and dimension score of PANSS scale and CRDPSS scale(standardized regression coefficient:0.04-0.47),and income level and smoking were negatively correlated with those score(standardized regression coefficient:-0.04--0.14).Conclusion:Early-onset schizophrenia patients have more severe symptoms,and fe-male,high education level,early-onset disease,and chronic onset are the risk factors of symptom severity in patients with schizophrenia.

Objective:To explore and compare the image quality and radiation dose between the spiral scanning and the axial scanning for skull phantom based on specific conditions.Methods:The position of the orbitomeatal base line(OBL)of the skull phantom was marked,and the different angles of elevation of skull were adjusted.The angles between OBL and bed surface were respectively set as 90°,100°,110° and 120°.The axial scanning and spiral scanning were respective adopted to conduct 24 times of image acquisition when the computed tomography dose index(CTDIvol)of fixed volume were respectively 40,50 and 60 mGy.The cross section of axial scanning was vertical to OBL,and the images of spiral scanning used the reconstructed technique of image quality enhancement(IQE)of removing spiral artifacts to conduct reconstruction along the OBL direction.The CT value(HU)and standard deviation(SD)of the bilateral cerebellum,temporal lobe,frontal lobe and parietal lobe of the phantom were measured,and the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)of each lobe of the phantom was calculated.The CTDIvol and dose-length product(DLP)were recorded,and the effective dose(ED)of lens was calculated.Results:The differences of the SNR values of cerebellum and occipital lobe(R),cerebellum and occipital lobe(L),temporal lobe(R),temporal lobe(L),frontal lobe(R),frontal lobe(L),parietal lobe(R)and parietal lobe(L)between two kinds of scanning models were significant(F=6.48,5.83,7.00,6.20,7.30,8.26,5.72,5.83,P<0.05),respectively.There was significant difference in lens DLP between the two kinds of scanning models(F=10.96,P<0.05).The spiral scanning and IQE reconstructed technique were used to conduct image acquisition and processing.The SNR value of spiral scanning imaging was better than that of axial scanning,and the reconstructions of coronal and sagittal positions could be conducted,and the radiation doses of lens were similar,but the DLP value of spiral scanning was slightly higher than that of axial scanning at the same CTDIvol.Conclusion:Using the IQE reconstruction technique of spiral scanning can obtain satisfactory CT sectional images of skull under the situations that machine cannot change scanning angle or the scanning of axial position is unable to conduct cooperation.

Objective:To investigate the effects of inhibition of Wnt/ β-catenin signaling pathway on paraquat (PQ)-induced transition of human lung fibroblast cell line MRC-5 and related molecular mechanisms.Methods:The MRC-5 cells were divided into three groups. Control group: without drug treatment; PQ group: the cells were treated by PQ (50 μmol/L) for 72 hours to establish cell transition model; PQ+DKK1 group: the cells were treated with PQ (50 μmol/L) and DKK1 (10 ng/mL) for 72 hours. Then, the cells were collected, and the transition related signatures including α-SMA, Vimentin and Collagen I were detected by immunofluorescence and Western blot (WB); Meanwhile, the expression levels of Wnt pathway-related molecules including β-catenin, Cyclin D1 and WISP1 were determined by WB, immunofluorescence and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT-PCR) during the transition; In addition, the inhibitor of Wnt/β-catenin pathway Dickkopf-1 (DKK1) was applied to block the signaling. Then the expression changes of β-catenin, cyclin D1 and WISP1 were detected by WB to verify the inhibitory effect, and the transition marker molecules including α-SMA, Vimentin and Collagen I were also determined by WB.Results:After 72 hours, compared with the Control group, the expression levels of α-SMA, Vimentin and Collagen I of MRC-5 cells in PQ group were increased significantly ( P<0.05); The expression levels of β-catenin, Cyclin D1 and WISP1 of MRC-5 cells in PQ group were significantly up-regulated ( P<0.05); DKK1 could inhibit the high expression of α-SMA, Vimentin and Collagen I of MRC-5 cells during PQ-induced transition ( P<0.05). Conclusions:DKK1 could inhibit PQ-induced transition of lung fibroblasts by interference with Wnt/β-catenin signaling, which was expected to further inhibit pulmonary fibrosis caused by PQ.

Objective:To investigate the effect of different additional filters on the image quality and radiation dose in abdominaldigital radiography (DR).Methods:Retrospective analysis was performed on 10 cases of abdominal DR from December 2020 to January 2021 in Fuxing Hospital, and the average mAs was calculated. Using automatic exposure control (AEC) technology, a polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) slab of the corresponding thickness (18 cm) at the same output of above mAs was confirmed and used as the attenuator to simulate the abdomen. The phantom of CDRAD 2.0 and 17 slices of 10 mm thick PMMA plates (total thickness 18 cm) were placed on the bed. The additional filters were selected as no additional filter, 2 mmAl, 0.1 mmCu+ 1 mmAl, 0.1 mmCu+ 2 mmAl respectively. The AEC levels were selected at -2, -1, 0, 1, and 2 respectively. The images were collected and analyzed by using CDRAD 2.0 software to obtain the image quality factor (IQF inv). The incident air kinetic energy on the surface of the PPMA was measured for each exposure, and PCXMC software was used to estimate the organ dose and effective dose, and a comparative analysis was made. Results:The skin incident doses at no additional filter, 2 mmAl, 0.1 mmCu+ 1 mmAl, 0.1 mmCu+ 2 mm Al were (0.546 1±0.200 8), (0.376 2±0.133 8 ), (0.285 3±0.100 1) and (0.289 9±0.099 2) mGy, respectively. The estimated effective doses were (79.63±29.24)×10 -3, (71.05±25.56)×10 -3, (63.58±22.18)×10 -3 and (67.64±23.11)×10 -3 mSv, respectively. The gonadal doses were (0.058 1±0.020 8), (0.050 0±0.018 0), (0.044 8±0.015 6) and (0.047 7±0.016 3) mGy.The IQF inv values were 4.70±0.61, 4.80±0.84, 4.60±0.55, 4.60±0.60, respectively. There were linear correlations between the effective dose and the skin incident dose under different additional filtration, and the effective doses increased with the increase of the incident doses. The dose was lowest at the addition filtration of 0.1 mmCu+ 1 mmAl. There was no significant difference in the IQF inv between groups( P>0.05). Conclusions:The optimal additional filtration for abdominal DR was 0.1 mmCu+ 1 mmAl with the image quality meeting the requirements of clinical diagnosis, the radiation dose reduced reasonably, and the objective of the optimization of radiographic parameters achieved.

BACKGROUND: Severe hand-foot-and-mouth disease (HFMD) is a life-threatening contagious disease among young children and infants. Although enterovirus A71 has been well acknowledged to be the dominant cause of severe HFMD, there still remain other unidentified risk factors for severe HFMD. Previous studies mainly focused on identifying the individual-level risk factors from a clinical perspective, while rare studies aimed to clarify the association between regional-level risk factors and severe HFMD, which may be more important from a public health perspective. METHODS: We retrieved the clinical HFMD counts between 2008 and 2014 from the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, which were used to calculated the case-severity rate in 143 prefectural-level cities in mainland China. For each of those 143 cities, we further obtained city-specific characteristics from the China City Statistical Yearbook (social and economic variables) and the national meteorological monitoring system (meteorological variables). A Poisson regression model was then used to estimate the associations between city-specific characteristics (reduced by the principal component analysis to avoid multicollinearity) and the case-severity rate of HFMD. The above analysis was further stratified by age and gender to examine potential modifying effects and vulnerable sub-populations. RESULTS: We found that the case-severity rate of HFMD varied dramatically between cities, ranging from 0 to 8.09%. Cities with high case-severity rates were mainly clustered in Central China. By relating the case-severity rate to city-specific characteristics, we found that both the principal component characterized by a high level of social and economic development (RR = 0.823, 95%CI 0.739, 0.916) and another that characterized by warm and humid climate (RR = 0.771, 95%CI 0.619, 0.960) were negatively associated with the case-severity rate of HFMD. These estimations were consistent across age and gender sub-populations. CONCLUSION Except for the type of infected pathogen, the case-severity rate of HFMD was closely related to city development and meteorological factor. These findings suggest that social and environmental factors may also play an important role in the progress of severe HFMD.

Objectives:To investigate the risk factors for acute liver injury (ALI) in patients after resuscitation from cardiac arrest and their influence on prognosis.Methods:The clinical data of patients after cardiopulmonary resuscitation in our department from January 2015 to January 2018 were analyzed. According to whether ALI occurred, the selected patients were divided into the ALI group and non-ALI group. The basic situation of the two groups of patients and the occurrence of shock and cardiac insufficiency after cardiac arrest were investigated. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the effect of ALI on the 1-year survival of patients. The 28-day mortality and neurological recovery were observed in patients in the ALI group. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for ALI.Results::There were 54 patients in the ALI group and 158 patients in the non-ALI group. The patients in the ALI group needed a longer time to recover spontaneous circulation [19 (10-27) min, P=0.015], and the overall condition (SOFA score, acidosis, and lactic acid) were more serious. The incidences of shock and heart failure after cardiac arrest in the ALI and non-ALI groups were 74% and 55%, and 89% and 70%, respectively. The 1-year cumulative survival rate of patients in the non-ALI group was significantly higher than that of the ALI group ( P=0.043). The longer the duration of ALI, the higher the incidence of poor prognosis. The time to resume spontaneous circulation ( OR=3.762; 95% CI: 2.347-5.098) and heart failure ( OR=4.272; 95% CI: 2.943-5.932) after cardiac arrest were associated with ALI in patients after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (both P<0.05). Conclusions:The time to resume spontaneous circulation after cardiac arrest and heart failure after cardiopulmonary resuscitation are risk factors for ALI, and the occurrence of ALI increases patient’s mortality.

Objective To study the effect of xuebijing on the expression of Caspase-3 in lung tissues and inflammatory factors in serum in acute respiratory distress syndrome rat model with paraquat poisoning. Methods Selecting 50 healthy rats and dividing into 5 groups randomly, Control group, Paraquat group, Low-dose xuebijing group(LD), Middle-dose xuebijing group(MD), High-dose xuebijing group(HD). Using 25 mg/kg paraquat solution to establish the animal model. 14 μmol/kg, 28 μmol/kg, 56μmol/kg xuebijing solution were injected into the abdominal cavity in LD, MD and HD group respectively, and the same dose of normal saline was injected into Control and Paraquat group. The expression levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in plasma were detected by ELISA after 24 hours, Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression levels of caspase-3 in the right lung tissue, and TUNEL method was used to detect apoptosis in the right lung tissue. Results The expression levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in plasma were significantly increased after paraquat poisoning, and expression of Caspase-3 protein was also significantly increased in lung tissue(P<0.01). After different dose of xuebijing treatment, the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in plasma and the protein expression of Caspase-3 in lung tissue were much lower than those in Paraquat group, but still higher than those in Control group(P<0.05), the apoptosis levels in MD and HD groupwere much lower than those in Paraquat group(P<0.05). Conclusions Xuebijing can significantly reduce the level of inflammatory factors in plasma, suppress the Caspase-3 protein expression and apoptosis in lung tissue in acute respiratory distress syndrome rat model with paraquat poisoning.
