BackgroundIn recent years, the incidence of non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) behaviors among adolescents has been increasing annually. Self-esteem and alexithymia are strongly associated with NSSI behaviors, and alienation is closely linked to both self-esteem and alexithymia. However, there is limited research on the relationship between alienation and NSSI behaviors among adolescents in China. ObjectiveTo analyze the relationship between alienation and NSSI behaviors among adolescents, and to explore the factors influencing NSSI behaviors in this population, so as to provide insights for the prevention and treatment of NSSI behaviors in adolescents. MethodsAdolescents admitted to the Department of Psychiatry and Psychology at the 923rd Hospital of the Joint Logistics Support Force of the Chinese People's Liberation Army from September 1, 2021 to March 1, 2023, who met the diagnostic criteria for NSSI in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fifth edition (DSM-5), were selected as the study group (n=60). Concurrently, middle school students from Nanning were recruited as the control group (n=60). Participants were assessed using Adolescent Self Harm Scale (ASHS), Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES), Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS) and Adolescent Students′ Alienation Scale (ASAS). Pearson correlation analysis was employed to examine the relationships between scale scores in the study group, and Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the influencing factors of NSSI behaviors among adolescents. ResultsThe RSES score of the study group was significantly lower than that of the control group (t=-7.033, P<0.01). The TAS and ASAS scores of the study group were significantly higher than those of the control group (t=5.591, 8.124, P<0.01). The ASHS score was negatively correlated with RSES score (r=-0.410, P<0.01) and positively correlated with ASAS score (r=0.555, P<0.01). The RSES scores of the study group were negatively correlated with TAS and ASAS scores (r=-0.317, -0.590, P<0.05 or 0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that being female (OR=0.714, 95% CI: 0.042~0.709) was a protective factor for NSSI behaviors among adolescents, while high alienation (OR=1.028, 95% CI: 1.013~1.043) and residing in rural areas (OR=6.692, 95% CI: 2.038~21.967) were risk factors for NSSI behaviors among adolescents. ConclusionAlienation was positively correlated with NSSI behaviors in adolescents. Female adolescents had a lower risk of NSSI behaviors, while those with higher levels of alienation or residing in rural areas were more prone to NSSI behaviors.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between the duration of folic acid supplementation,gesta-tional diabetes mellitus(GDM)and adverse perinatal outcomes based on generalized linear mixed model.Meth-ods:Clinical data was collected of 759 pairs of mothers and children who delivered at the First Affiliated Hospital of Hebei North University from January 2021 to December 2022.The adverse perinatal outcomes of this study in-cluded cesarean section,premature birth,macrosomia,low birth weight(LBW),large for gestational age(LGA),and small for gestational age infant(SGA).Generalized linear mixed model was used to analyze the impact of GDM and supplementation with folic acid for a duration of ≥3 months on the risk of adverse perinatal outcomes.A stratified analysis of the duration of folic acid supplementation was conducted to determine whether it was a con-founding factor or influencing factor of GDM and adverse birth outcomes.Results:A total of 748 patients(98.55%)received folic acid supplementation before and during pregnancy,with a total of 743 patients(97.89%)receiving folic acid supplementation during pregnancy and 496 patients(65.35%)receiving folic acid supplementation before pregnancy.77 mothers were diagnosed with GDM,with an incidence rate of 10.14%.Compared with those who received folic acid supplementation before pregnancy for<3 months,those who re-ceived folic acid supplementation before pregnancy for ≥ 3 months were associated with an increased risk of GDM.The adjusted RR(aRR)was 1.72(95%CI 1.17-2.53).The GDM patients who received folic acid sup-plementation for≥3 months before pregnancy was associated with a reduced risk of SGA,with an aRR of 0.40(95%CI 0.18-0.89).In the subgroup of pregnant women who received folic acid supplementation for≥3 months,GDM was associated with an increased risk of cesarean section(aRR 1.36,95%CI 1.06-1.75))and macrosomia(aRR2.11,95%CI 1.06-4.20),but both aRR were lower than fixed effect RR of 1.53(95%CI 1.01-2.34)and 2.43(95%CI 12.7-4.66),respectively.and the above differences were statistically signifi-cant(P<0.01).Conclusions:Supplementing folic acid for≥3 months before pregnancy increases the risk of GDM,but reduces the risk of SGA birth in patients with GDM.Supplementing folic acid during pregnancy for≥3 months has a reducing effect on the risk of adverse perinataloutcomes of cesarean section and macrosomia in women with GDM.

Objective:To identify the risk factors affecting the healing of defective bony nonunion.Methods:The studies reporting the risk factors for healing of defective bony nonunion between January 2000 and March 2022 were retrieved by computer from the VIP, Wanfangdata, CNKI, Web of Science, PubMed, and Medline databases. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) was used to evaluate the quality of the included studies. the RevMan 5.3 software was used to perform a meta-analysis of the general factors, injuries and surgical-related factors affecting the healing of defective bony nonunion.Results:Included in this Meta analysis were 17 studies with 1,236 patients. The NOS score of the included studies was from 5 to 8. The meta-analysis showed the following: age ( MD=-4.27, 95% CI: -8.29 to 2.91, P < 0.01), smoking ( OR=3.56, 95% CI: 2.81 to 6.32, P < 0.01), soft tissue defect ( OR=3.54, 95% CI: 2.21 to 5.69, P < 0.01), combined ipsilateral fibular fracture ( OR=4.18, 95% CI: 1.24 to 14.03, P=0.02), venous thrombosis ( OR=4.27, 95% CI: 1.05 to 17.44, P=0.04), and postoperative infection ( OR=2.96, 95% CI: 1.97 to 4.47, P < 0.01) were significant risk factors for the healing of defective bone nonunion. Minor bone defect ( SMD=-0.67, 95% CI: -1.25 to -0.10, P=0.02), proximal to distal bone transport ( OR=-0.42, 95% CI: 0.22 to 0.77, P < 0.01), short-term external fixation ( MD=-3.92, 95% CI: -7.10 to -0.73, P=0.02), and autologous bone grafting ( OR=0.39, 95% CI: 0.16 to 0.95, P=0.04) were protective factors for the healing of defective bony nonunion. Conclusions:High age (senility), smoking, soft tissue defect, ipsilateral fibular fracture, venous thrombosis, and postoperative infection are risk factors affecting the healing of defective bony nonunion. Minor bone defect, proximal to distal bone transport, short-term external fixation, and autologous bone grafting are protective factors affecting the healing of defective bony nonunion. Surgeons can predict early the prognosis of patients with defective bony nonunion based on the above factors.
