Objective:To establish a liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for accurate determination of plasma Lyso-GL-3 concentration.Method:Solid phase extraction technology was used to process plasma samples, and under positive ion mode and multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) conditions, LC-MS/MS was used to determine the concentration of Lyso-GL-3. The linear range, detection and quantification limits, accuracy, precision, matrix effect, carrier effect of the method, and plasma sample stability were validated. And the accuracy of Lyso-GL-3 positive patients was compared by combining enzymatic and genetic testing results.Result:Lyso-GL-3 had good linearity in the range of 1.25-400 nmol/L. The detection limit and quantification limit were 0.15 nmol/L and 0.50 nmol/L, respectively. The spiked recovery rate was 88.78%-108.96%. The coefficient of variation ( CV) for intra batch precision, inter batch precision, and matrix effect were all less than 15%, the result of carrier effect was 0.55%. Plasma samples could be stably stored for 30 days under refrigeration conditions. The clinical conformity of the patient was 100%. Conclusion:The established LC-MS/MS detection method for plasma Lyso-GL-3 concentration takes 2.5 minutes, which is simple, fast, accurate, and reliable.

BackgroundAs a high prevalence disorder， schizophrenia has caused significant burden to family and society due to the impairment of occupational and social function. Currently， the dominant vocational training model in China follows a paternalistic， clinician-led decision-making approach. Although it improves patients' social function to some extent， it undermines their autonomy and treatment adherence. Therefore， it is urgently necessary to explore a new intervention method to enhance treatment compliance and social function in patients. ObjectiveTo explore the impact of shared decision-making oriented vocational training on social function in hospitalized schizophrenia patients， so as to provide references for rehabilitation interventions. MethodsA total of 68 patients diagnosed with schizophrenia according to the International Classification of Diseases， tenth edition （ICD-10） criteria were consecutively enrolled from January to June 2024 at The Third People's Hospital of Wenjiang Distric， Chengdu. Participants were randomly allocated into the research group （n=34） and the control group （n=34） using a random number table method. Both groups received routine rehabilitation training， while the research group received shared decision-making oriented vocational training for 12 weeks， 2 times a week for 2 hours each time. Before and at the 4^th and 12^th week of intervention， two groups were evaluated by General Self-Efficacy Scale （GSES）， Stigma Scale for Mental Illness （SSMI）， Scale of Social function of Psychosis Inpatients （SSFPI） and Inpatient Psychiatric Rehabilitation Outcome Scale （IPROS）. ResultsA total of 63 participants completed the study， with 30 cases in the research group and 33 cases in the control group. Repeated measures ANOVA revealed statistically significant time effects and interaction effects in both groups for GSES， SSMI， SSFPI and IPROS scores （F=20.451， 16.022； 26.193， 12.944； 23.957， 5.023； 11.776， 3.985， P<0.05 or 0.01）， while no significant group effects were observed （F=0.188， 0.742， 1.878， 0.474， P>0.05）. At the 12^th week of intervention， there were statistically significant differences in GSES， SSMI， SSFPI and IPROS scores between the two groups. ConclusionShared decision-making oriented vocational training may help to improve social function in patients with schizophrenia. ［Funded by 2023 Chengdu Medical Research Project （number， 2023468）］

Objective:To explore the predictive value of cervical length(CL)measured at 16-24 weeks of ges-tation for spontaneous preterm birth in twin pregnancies.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 1001 twin pregnancy cases,including 569 cases in the spontaneous preterm birth group and 432 cases in the term birth group.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were used to identify factors associated with spon-taneous preterm birth.The predictive value of CL for spontaneous preterm birth was analyzed by the receiver op-erating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results:At 16-24 weeks of pregnancy,the CL in the spontaneous preterm birth group(3.460±0.866 cm)was significantly shorter than that in the term birth group(3.711±0.589 cm),and the difference was statistically significant(P=0.005).There were statistically significant differences in the cervical fun-neling and its morphology between the term birth group and the spontaneous preterm birth group(P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that monochorionicity(aOR 0.161,95％ CI 0.074-0.351) and CL at 16-24 weeks of pregnancy(aOR 0.655,95％ CI 0.496-0.864) were influencing factors for spontaneous preterm birth(P <0.05).ROC curve analysis indicated that a CL cutoff of 3.045 cm at 16-24 weeks of pregnancy predicted spontaneous preterm birth before 34 weeks,with a sensitivity of 90.2％ ,specificity of 64.9％ ,and an area under the curve of 0.650.Conclusions:Measurement of CL at 16-24 weeks of pregnancy is a potential predictor of spontaneous preterm birth in twin pregnancies.In addition,when establishing a prediction model for spontaneous preterm birth,future research should also consider cervical funnel morphology.
