Objective To explore the mediating effects of rumination and its subtypes on the relationship between negative life events and depressive symptoms in treatment-naive depressed patients.Methods Sixty-two treatment-naive depressed patients completed the center for epidemiologic studies depression scale (CESD),rumination response scale (RRS),and life event scale (LES).Results ① The scores of CESD were positively correlated with total score of RRS,brooding score of RRS,and negative LES score (NLES) in depressed patients (r=0.66,P＜ 0.01;r =0.50,P＜ 0.01;r =0.51,P＜ 0.01).The total score of RRS and brooding score of RRS were positively correlated with NLES(r=0.45,P＜0.01;r=0.47,P＜0.01).② The total score of RRS played a mediating role between NLES and CESD (indirect effect=0.12,95％ CI =0.04 ～ 0.23).③The brooding of RRS played a mediating role between NLES and CESD (indirect effect =0.07,95％ CI=0.02～0.15).Conclusion The RRS and the brooding of RRS exert mediation effects on the relationship between NLES and CESD in patients with depression.

Objective:To explore the prevalence of sleep problems among residents in the city of Ruian during the outbreak of novel coronavirus pneumonia(COVID-19),and to investigate whether the presence of sleep prob-lems was related to the infection of COVID-19.Methods:Totally 4 810 community residents(1116 residents tested positive for COVID-19 and 3 694 residents tested negative for COVID-19)were chosen by stratified convenience sampling.All participants were assessed with the Sleep Self-Rating Scale(SRSS,total score ≥23 SRSS screen-pos-itive),Generalized Anxiety Scale(GAD-7,total score ≥5 GAD-7 screen-positive)and 9-item Patient Health Ques-tionnaire(PHQ-9,total score ≥5 PHQ-9 screen-positive).Results:The screen-positive rates of SRSS,GAD-7 and PHQ-9 were 30.5％,33.7％and 27.2％,respectively.Logistic regression analysis showed that the infection of CO-VID-19 was significantly associated with the SRSS screen-positive(OR=1.73,95％CI:1.48-2.03),after con-trolling for the confounding variables of gender,age group,GAD-7 screen-positive and PHQ-9 screen-positive.Conclusion:The prevalence of sleep problems was higher in the residents tested positive for COVID-19 than in those tested negative for COVID-19.The occurrence of sleep problems may be directly associated with the infection of COVID-19.

To systematically evaluate the expression of lymphovascular invasion (LVI) in predicting the clinical prognosis of patients after radical cystectomy.Methods The relevant search strategy,including and excluding criteria for the relevant literature were developed by two independent researchers.The study of tumor prognosis in the patients with LVI following radical cystectomy cancer were searched by computerized PubMed,EMBASE,Web of Science,Cochrane library,China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI),Wanfang and VIP citation database.The search period was setted from the beginning of establishment of library until May 2017,and the search language was English and Chinese.The methodological quality of the included studies was assessed by the NOS.Besides,the relationship between LVI and the clinical outcome in patients following radical cystectomy was calculated by RevMan 5.3 and Stata 12.0 software.Results A total of 18 related clinical studies were included,published from 2008 to 2017.There were 12 354 patients with bladder cancer,of which 4 272 cases of LVI,with a proportion rate 34.6％.The results showed that the patients with LVI in pathological sections had a lower overall survival rate (HR =1.26,95％ CI 1.16-1.38,P ＜0.001),recurrence-free survival (HR =1.27,95％ CI 1.06-1.52,P ＜0.001),cancer-specific survival rate (HR =1.30,95％CI 1.18-1.42,P ＜0.001).Egger's publication bias analysis showed no significant publication bias in terms of overall survival(P =0.636),recurrence-free survival (P =0.077),and cancer-specific survival (P =0.342).Conclusions LVI had a significant poor outcome in patients with radical resection of bladder cancer.It can be used as an independent risk factor to evaluate the postoperative prognosis of those patients,but more randomized controlled studies are still needed to make a further conformity in our completion.

Objective: To explore the clinical effects of retroperitoneal laparoscopic ureterolithotomy (RPLU) and flexible-ureteroscopic holmium laser lithotripsy (f-UHLL) for complicated upper ureteral calculi. Methods: A total of 45 cases of complicated upper ureteral calculi between March 2014 and January 2016 in Department of Urology, Affiliated Jiangyin Hospital of Southeast University Medical College were retrospectively analyzed, there were 32 males and 13 females, ranging from 27 to 45 years with an average age of (34.1±9.5) years. Of the 45 patients, 28 had ureteral distortion and 17 had concurrent ureteral stones in the lower or middle ipsilateral ureter. In those patients, 20 cases underwent f-UHLL, and 25 cases received RPLU. The stone size, operation time, hospital stay, stone clearance rates and postoperative fever rates between the two groups were compared with t test and χ²test. Results: The operation was successfully performed in all patients, no complications with leakage of urine or ureteral perforation occurred, and no significant difference in renal function between the two methods were founded in postoperative period. There was no significant difference in operation time((78.4±8.5) minuetes vs.(73.3±11.3) minuetes, t=0.61, P=0.67), time of double J tube removed ((33.8±3.4)days vs. (37.6±8.9) d, t=2.37, P=0.08) and ipsilateral renal glomerular filtration rates ((41.3±7.6)ml/minuetes vs.(40.5±7.1) ml/min, t=0.78, P=1.27) between the two groups. However, the hospitalization time ((5.9±1.7)days vs. (4.2±1.6) days, t=1.92, P=0.04), postoperative fever rates (4% vs.30%, χ²=5.72, P=0.03) and calculus clearance rates (100% vs. 75%, χ²=7.03, P=0.01) in RPLU were significantly higher than f-UHLL. Besides, 5 patients in the f-UHLL group had postoperative stone residue and were treated with extracorpore shock wave lithotripsy. Conclusions Both RPLU and f-UHLL are safety and validity for complex upper ureteral calculi. RPLU can improve the rate of calculus removal and reduce the rate of postoperative fever.

Objective To examine the effect of posterior reduction in atlantoaxial dislocation (AAD) associated with basilar invagination(BI) using Xuanwu occipital?cervical fusion system in single stage. Methods Thirty?seven AAD accompanied with BI cases treated at Department of Neurosurgery, Xuanwu Hospital,Capital Medical Universiy and the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University were retrospective analyzed. There were 15 males and 22 females with age of (42.3 ± 12.3)years (range: 18-69 years). All the cases had congenital osseous abnormalities, such as assimilation of atlas and abnormal cervical fusion. Anterior tissue was released through posterior route followed by cage implantation into facet joint and occipital?cervical fixation with cantilever technique. The clinical results were evaluated using Japanese Orthopedic Association scale(JOA) and the main radiological measurements including anterior atlantodental interval (ADI),the distance of odontoid tip above Chamberlain line,clivus?canal angle(CCA) and the length of syrinx were collected. The preoperative and postoperative JOA score and radiological measurements were compared by paired t?test. Results The mean JOA score of the patients increased from 10.5 to 14.4 at the one?year follow?up(t=14.3,P=0.00).Complete reduction of AAD and BI was achieved in 34 patients.The mean clivus?canal angle improved from (118.0±6.5)degrees preoperative to (143.7±5.0)degrees postoperative(t=6.2,P=0.00).Shrinkage of the syrinx was observed 1 week after surgery in 24 patients,and 6 months in 31 patients.Twenty?eight patients achieved bone fusion 6 months after surgery. All the patients achieved bone fusion 12 months after surgery. One?side vertebral artery occlusion was diagnosed in 1 case postoperatively for transient dizziness,and relieved in 2 weeks.Two patients developed moderate neck pain after surgery, and relieved in 1 month. No implant failure, spacer subsidence or infection was observed. Conclusions The treatment of AAD associated with BI using Xuanwu occipital?cervical fusion system from posterior approach in single stage is effective and safe. Cage implantation intraarticularly and fixation with cantilever technique achieve complete reduction in most cases.

Objective:To explore the clinical effect of using great toe fibular flaps of both feet on reconstruction of pulp defects of two neighbouring digits.Methods:A total of 14 digit pulp defects in 7 cases were repaired in Zhoukou Huaihai Hospital using great toe fibular flaps of both feet from August 2020 to January 2023. Of the 7 cases, there were 4 males and 3 females, with an average of 28 years old, ranging from 19 to 45 years old. Meanwhile, there were 4 cases in left hand and 3 cases in right hand. There were 3 cases of digit pulp defects in index and middle fingers, 2 in middle and ring fingers, and 2 in thumb and index fingers. The area of soft tissue defect in 1.2 cm×1.5 cm-3.0 cm×2.5 cm, and flap was 1.5 cm ×1.8 cm-3.2 cm×2.8 cm. Furthermore, 1 case underwent emergency surgery and 5 were repaired in elective surgery. The donor site of the flap was closed directly, and an intermediate-thickness skin graft was prepared from the medial plantar area for transfer in the case of high suture tension at the wound edge. After surgery, patients received postoperative by outpatient clinic and WeChat to observe the appearance, sensation, functional recovery and flap contracture of digits, as well as the movement of the great toes of both feet.Results:After the surgery, all flaps in the 7 cases survived smoothly and the donor sites healed. All patients entered scheduled follow-ups postoperatively for 6 months to 2 years, with an average of 9 months. The flap showed an aesthetic appearance and excellent sensation, with a TPD of 3-6 mm, and satisfactory digit function. The donor site of the great toe fibular flap left linear scars only, without abnormality in range of motion and gait in walking. In addition, there were 5 in excellent and 2 in good according to the Evaluation Trial Standards of Upper Limb Partial Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association.Conclusion:Application of great toe fibular flaps of both feet is an ideal option for the simultaneous repair of pulp defects of two neighbouring digits, which can achieve good reconstructive results.

BackgroundThe persistently high prevalence of insomnia seriously affects the quality of life of all populations. Studies showed that state-trait anxiety， resilience and neuroticism are related to the occurrence of insomnia， while the research on the relationship among the four factors in college students is still insufficient. ObjectiveTo discuss the impact of neuroticism on insomnia among college students， and to examine the mediating role of state-trait anxiety and resilience in the relationship between neuroticism and insomnia， thus providing references for the intervention of insomnia in college students. MethodsFrom September to December 2020， simple random sampling techniques were utilized to select 1 416 students in a university in Sichuan province， and all subjects were assessed using State-Trait Anxiety Inventory （STAI）， Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale （CD-RISC）， Chinese Big Five Personality Inventory-15 （CBF-PI-15） and Insomnia Severity Index （ISI）. Then Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to examine the correlation among the above four scales， and the mediating role of STAI and CD-RISC in the relationship between CBF-PI-15 neuroticism dimension and ISI was verified by Process macro mediation analysis. ResultsInsomnia was reported in 241/1 416 （17.02%） college students. The prevalence rate of insomnia in male students was higher than that in female students， with statistical difference （χ²=16.417， P<0.01）. Total ISI score was positively correlated with CBF-PI-15 neuroticism dimension and total STAI score （r=0.127， 0.563， P<0.01）， and negatively correlated with total CD-RISC score （r=-0.149， P<0.01）. State-trait anxiety and resilience of college students had a chain mediation effect on the relationship between neuroticism and insomnia （indirect effect size was -0.011）， and the size of direct effect of neuroticism on insomnia was 0.120， accounting for 75.00% of the total effect. ConclusionState-trait anxiety and resilience of college students exert a chain mediation effect on the relationship between neuroticism and insomnia， so the neuroticism causes an impact on insomnia both directly and indirectly through the chain mediating effect of state-trait anxiety and resilience.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of free superficial circumflex iliac artery perforator flap (SCIAPF) in reconstruction of soft tissue defects of hand and foot in children.Methods:From August 2021 to August 2023, free SCIAPFs were used to reconstruct soft tissue defects of hands and feet in 8 children at the Department of Hand and Foot Surgery, Zhoukou Huaihai Hospital. There were 6 boys and 2 girls aged between 2 and 7 years old. The sites of soft tissue defect were: 1 of metacarpophalangeal joint in the functional area of left thumb, 2 of dorsal right hand, 1 of dorsal left foot, 2 of medial malleolus of right foot, and 2 of right forefoot, and all were accompanied with tendon and bone exposure. The size of soft tissue defects ranged from 2.5 cm×3.0 cm to 6.0 cm×3.5 cm. After emergency debridement, the children received flap transfers, the flaps sized from 3.0 cm×3.5 cm to 7.0 cm×4.0 cm. Donor sites were closed by running intradermal suture. All children were included in the scheduled postoperative follow-up by visit of outpatient clinic, WeChat interviews and home visits to observe the appearance, colour, texture and sensation of the flaps, the functional recovery of the affected hands and feet, as well as the healing of donor sites.Results:After surgery, all 8 flaps survived beside 1 had a partial necrosis at the edge and healed with a scab after dressing change. Flap donor sites healed in one stage. Scheduled postoperative follow-up lasted from 7 to 22 months, with an average of 10 months. The flaps presented a slightly bloated appearance, soft texture with a restored protective sensation and satisfactory functional recovery of hands and feet. Linear scars were left at the donor sites. According to the Evaluation Trial Standards of Upper Limb Partial Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association, 1 child was of excellent and 2 children of good in hand function of the 3 children with hand injury. The Maryland Foot Score revealed 3 children were of excellent and 2 of good in foot function of the 5 children with foot injury.Conclusion:Free SCIAPF is an ideal option for reconstruction of soft tissue defects of hand and foot in children, with concealed donor site, convenient flap harvesting, fewer complications and satisfactory reconstructive effect.
