Objective: To identify research priorities on physical and mental comorbidity among children and adolescents in Zhejiang Province, so as to provide a theoretical base for improving their physical and mental health. Methods: In May 2025, 77 experts in the fields of health and education from 11 cities in Zhejiang Province were selected by convenient sampling method to participate in the first round of expert consultation. In June, 2025, snowball sampling was used to expand to 194 experts for the second round of consultation, and it was convenient to select 21 students from primary schools to high schools in Zhejiang Province and 29 parents to empower the evaluation criteria. It applied the Child Health and Nutrition Research Initiative (CHNRI) method in a structured process, which encompassed the definition of the research field, generation of research ideas, scoring, and quantitative ranking of priorities. Research ideas were evaluated against 6 predefined criteria: effectiveness, safety, answerability, feasibility, sustainability, and scientific significance. Results: After 2 rounds of structured consultations, 81 research ideas on physical and mental comorbidity among children and adolescents were established and classified into 7 subthemes: epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors, optimization of primary service systems and policies, comprehensive intervention strategies for physical and mental comorbidity, biological mechanisms and clinical research, the impact of education and environment on physical and mental health, special populations and social support, and digital and technology driven disease prevention and intervention. The top 10 research priorities primarily centered on the subdomain of "epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors" (5 items). The top 3 research priorities were "the association between outdoor activity duration and the incidence of common diseases (including mental disorders) among children and adolescents" "the impact of outdoor activity duration on the physical and mental health of adolescents" "comprehensive intervention strategies for myopia, obesity, and their comorbidities among children and adolescents". Conclusion The framework of priority issues in the field of psychosomatic comorbidity of children and adolescents in Zhejiang Province based on CHNRI method provides a reference for optimizing the allocation of provincial research resources.

ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy of ovarian tissue cryopreservation and autologous transplantation in preserving fertility and ovarian endocrine function in patients with cervical cancer. MethodsA 26-year-old patient with stage ⅡA1 cervical cancer underwent ovarian tissue harvesting and cryopreservation during cancer surgery. Following complete remission of the cancer， autologous ovarian tissue transplantation was performed. Follow-up monitoring included assessment of menopausal symptoms， hormone levels， and follicular development. ResultsSix months after transplantation， follicle-stimulating hormone levels decreased to 6.60 U/L， and estradiol levels increased from ＜10.00 ng/L to 89.00 ng/L. At 10 months after transplantation， ultrasound monitoring confirmed follicular development and physiological ovulation in the transplanted ovarian tissue. By 15 months after transplantation， follicle-stimulating hormone levels remained stable at 7.24 U/L， and estradiol levels further increased to 368.00 ng/L. Over 2 years after transplantation， the patient successfully gave birth to a healthy baby through assisted reproductive technology. ConclusionThe restoration of endocrine and ovulation functions in the transplanted cryopreserved ovarian tissue， followed by successful pregnancy， demonstrates the clinical success of ovarian tissue transplantation.

Modified electro-convulsive therapy (MECT) is one of the most potent treatments for major depressive disorder (MDD). However, it remains a second-line option due to significant side effects, such as transient memory loss. The relationship between therapeutic efficacy and cognitive impairment warrants further investigation to develop improved treatment regimens. In this review, we examine recent evidence from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies aiming to identify structural and functional brain changes specifically associated with both the antidepressant effects and the amnesic outcomes of MECT. MECT induces widespread alterations across multiple brain systems. Increases in gray matter volume (GMV) have been observed in the prefrontal, temporal, and parietal cortices, as well as in subcortical regions such as the hippocampus (HP), amygdala, and striatum. Strengthening of myelination has also been reported along the dorsolateral prefrontal-limbic pathways. Functional changes include increased spontaneous neural activity in prefrontal areas, reorganization of intrinsic connectivity within the default mode network (DMN), and altered functional connectivity (FC) among the DMN, salience network (SN), and central executive network (CEN). Correlational studies have identified structural and functional alterations linked to antidepressant efficacy, including right hippocampal volume enlargement, prefrontal cortical thickening, reduced iron deposition in the striatum, decreased FC within certain DMN nodes, and enhanced effective connectivity from the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) to the right angular gyrus. In contrast, the amnesic effects have been associated with increased volumes in the left hippocampus and bilateral dentate gyrus; enhanced FC in the left angular gyrus and left posterior cingulate cortex (PCC); increased FC between the right ventral anterior insula and DLPFC; and reduced FC in the left thalamus and bilateral precuneus. Changes in the hippocampus appear to correlate with both antidepressant efficacy and memory impairment. Clinical studies have found no significant correlation between the severity of memory impairment and the reduction in depressive symptoms, suggesting that the therapeutic and adverse effects may arise from distinct regional or subregional mechanisms. Supporting this hypothesis, recent findings show that increased right hippocampal volume is significantly associated with reduced depression scores, whereas increased volume in the left dentate gyrus correlates with declines in delayed recall performance. Additionally, enhanced connectivity between the anterior hippocampus and middle occipital gyrus (MOG) has been linked to mood improvement, while decreased FC between the mid-hippocampus and angular gyrus has been associated with impairments in memory integration. In conclusion, current evidence suggests that the antidepressant and memory-impairing effects of MECT may localize to distinct hippocampal subregions. These effects likely result from differential modulation of local neural activity and functional connectivity, leading to divergent behavioral outcomes. Given that both effects may originate in deep and spatially constrained structures such as the hippocampus, small-sample studies and conventional methodologies may fail to differentiate them effectively. Future research should employ large-scale, longitudinal designs utilizing high-field MRI and multimodal neuroimaging to characterize MECT-induced structure-function coupling in the hippocampus and its integration at the network level. Additionally, multiscale analyses spanning molecular, circuit, and network dimensions would be beneficial.

Objective To investigate the association of digit ratio with single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP)at three loci(rs17576,rs3918249,rs9509)of matrix metallopeptidase 9(MMP-9)gene.Methods A total of 804 Ningxia Han youths(399 males and 405 females)were used as the study subjects.A digital camera was used to take frontal photographs of the hands,and image analysis software was used to mark the anatomical points and measure the lengths of each finger of both hands(2D,3D,4D,5D);Multiplexed PCR was used to detect the three polymorphic sites of the MMP-9 gene,SPSS 25.0 and R Studio software were used for data analysis and plotting.Results The 2D/3D(P＜0.05)and 2D/4D(left,P＜0.01,right,P＜0.05)of both hands,2D/5D(P＜0.01),3D/5D,4D/5D(P＜0.05)of the right hand,and 3D/4D(P＜0.05)of the left hand in female youths of Ningxia Han were significantly higher than those in males,Differences in genotypes and allele frequencies at all 3 loci of the MMP-9 gene were not statistically significant between genders(P＞0.05).Right hand 2D/4D was significantly associated with genotypes at the rs17576 and rs3918249 loci in male youths(P＜0.05).Conclusion MMP-9 gene SNPs(rs17576 and rs3918249)may be associated with the formation of 2D/4D of Ningxia Han male youths.

ObjectiveTo retrospectively analyze the association between novel coronavirus (“SARS-CoV-2”) infection and clinical symptoms in inpatients with severe acute respiratory infection (SARI) in Pudong New Area, Shanghai, so as to provide evidence for improving clinical diagnostic ability. MethodsFrom January 13 to March 2, 2023, respiratory tract specimens of 456 inpatients with SARI were collected from 8 sentinel institutions, SARS-CoV-2 was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR. Whole genome sequencing and sequence analyses were performed to samples with a cycle threshold (Ct) value of <35. At the same time, demographic information, clinical characteristics and underlying disease condition of the cases were collected, and the association between age, symptoms and nucleic acid positive rates was evaluated by χ² test and Spearman correlation analysis. ResultsA total of 456 cases were included, the median (P₂₅, P₇₅) age was 70 (69, 85) years old, of which 200 cases were novel coronavirus nucleic acid positive for SARS-CoV-2, with a positive rate of 43.86%. The positive rate was the highest in the 80-year-old group (56.82%), and the positive rate increased significantly with age (r=0.15, P=0.002). The proportion of oppression in chest, sore throat and expectoration in novel coronavirus nucleic acid positive cases was significantly higher than that in negative cases (all P<0.05). The 33 viruses sequenced successfully were all Omicron subvariants, with BF.7 (51.52%) and BA.5.2 (42.42%) being the predominant ones. ConclusionA positive correlation was observed between advanced age and the risk of SARS-CoV-2 positivity in patients with SARI. The symptoms of expectoration, oppression in chest and sore throat are more common in positive cases, which can be used as a prompt indicator for key screening and clinical identification of elderly SARI cases.

Objective To observe the ultrasonic manifestations of abdominal pregnancy.Methods Ultrasonic and clinical data of 18 pregnant woman with abdominal pregnancy diagnosed by operation and pathology were retrospectively analyzed.Results Among 15 cases in first trimester,no preoperative ultrasonic diagnosis of abdominal pregnancy was obtained.Ultrasound showed no gestational sac in uterine cavity but mass in pelvic cavity,which located in the adnexal region in 8 cases,in the front and the post of uterus each in 2 cases,while in the adnexal region and the front of uterus in 1 case,in the post of the cervix in 1 case,and closed to uterine wall in 1 case,without obvious tubal echo around mass in all 15 cases.There were 2 cases of abdominal pregnancy in the second trimester,which were first diagnosed with ultrasound at 13+6 weeks and 21 weeks,with gestational sac located on the left side of uterus and behind the uterus,respectively.One case of abdominal pregnancy in the third trimester was first diagnosed with ultrasound at 35 4 weeks,with gestational sac located on the right side of uterus.Ultrasonic manifestations of the above three cases all showed gestational sac located outside the uterus without myometrium wrapping around the gestational sac nor placenta implanted in uterus,while echoes of fluid accumulation were detected around fetus.The ultrasonic diagnosis rate of abdominal pregnancy was 16.67％(3/18).Conclusion In the first trimester,if the ectopic pregnancy mass was large or the gestational sac located adjacent to the cervix,anterior or posterior to uterus and on the uterine wall,also no fallopian tube-like echo around the mass,the possibility of abdominal pregnancy should be considered.Ultrasonic manifestations of abdominal pregnancy in the second and third trimester present as gestational sac outside uterine cavity without wrapping uterine muscle layer around,no placenta implantation in uterine cavity,as well as echoes of fluid accumulation around fetus.Transabdominal combined with transvaginal ultrasound could improve diagnostic rate of abdominal pregnancy.

Objective To explore the prognostic value of plasma sST2 in the population of coronary heart disease(CHD)complicated with chronic kidney disease(CKD).Methods A total of 326 elderly patients with CHD or CKD undergoing physical examination in the Second Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from April 2021 to July 2022 were continuously enrolled,and according to whether having CHD or CKD,they were divided into a CHD-CKD comorbidity group(n=117),a CHD group(n=124),and a CKD group(n=85).Their baseline data were compared,and the plasma concentration of sST2 was detected using chemiluminescence assay.Multiple linear regression analysis was used to identify the relevant factors of sST2.Kaplan-Meier survival curve and Cox proportional hazards regression analyses were applied to determine the impact of plasma sST2 on all-cause mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE).Results There were significant differences among the three groups in terms of age,sST2 and NT-proBNP levels,Log(NT-proBNP),eGFR,ratios of hyperuricemia,cerebral infarction,tumors,and using anti-platelet drugs and statins,PR interval,LVEF,and TC,TG,HDL-C and Hb levels(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the sST2 level was positively correlated with logNT-proBNP and negatively with Hb level in the comorbidity group(t=2.266,P=0.025;t=-2.235,P=0.021).Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis indicated that during a median fol-low-up of 31.5(22.0,32.2)months,the comorbidity group had a lower survival rate than the two single-disease groups(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),and higher incidence of MACEs than the CKD group(P＜0.01).ROC curve analysis suggests that the AUC value of sST2 in predicting all-cause mor-tality in the comorbid group was 0.692.Cox proportional hazards regression model revealed that after adjustment for cofounders,sST2 was still an independent risk factor for all-cause mortality in the comorbid patients(HR=4.461,95％CI:1.640-8.399,P=0.024),although this prognos-tic value may be influenced by NT-proBNP.Conclusion sST2 can independently predict the risk of mortality in elderly patients with CHD-CKD comorbidity.
