Objective:To explore the occupational adaptability of psychiatric medical caregivers from the perspective of a composite ecosystem.Methods:Using purposive sampling combining with snowball sampling and based on ecosystem theory, an interview outline was set up to conduct semi-structured interviews with psychiatric medical caregivers from October to December 2023. The Colaizzi 7-step analysis method was used to extract the themes.Results:Totally 15 psychiatric medical caregivers aged 44-61 years, 4 males and 11 females. There were three themes in the study: microsystems-changes in cognition, emotion, and physical and mental health; mid-level system-support and difficulties for families, hospitals, and nursing staff institutions; the macro system-social psychological support system was lacking.Conclusions:Psychiatric medical caregivers lack professional knowledge, have more negative emotions in their emotional experiences, and have a serious lack of mental health support systems. There are biases and misunderstandings towards them in society. It is recommended that managers pay attention to the physical and mental health of psychiatric caregivers and improve their work adaptability.

Objective:To explore the mediating role of anxiety/depression emotions between sleep quality and cognitive function in adolescents with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD).Methods:A cross-sectional study design was adopted, involving 204 ADHD adolescents aged 12-18 who were treated between January 2021 and November 2023.All participants were assessed using the Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI)for sleep quality, the self-rating anxiety scale(SAS) and self-rating depression scale(SDS) for emotional states.Four cognitive information processing processes(planning, simultaneous processing, attention, and successive processing) were evaluated by the Das-Naglieri cognitive assessment system(DN: CAS). Data were statistically analyzed using SPSS 23.0 and Zstats software, including descriptive statistics, Spearman correlation analysis, and mediation effect analysis.Results:Among ADHD adolescents, girls exhibited significantly higher rates of sleep disturbance(71.59%(63/88) vs 43.97%(51/116), χ2=15.490, P<0.001)and depressive emotion(47.73%(42/88) vs 33.62%(39/116), χ2=4.159, P=0.041)compared to boys.High school students had a significantly higher rate of sleep disturbance than middle school students(64.84%(59/91) vs 48.67%(55/113), χ2=5.341, P=0.021). Spearman correlation analysis revealed that sleep quality(8.00(6.00, 11.00)) in ADHD adolescents was significantly and positively correlated with anxiety(38.00(32.00, 46.00); r=0.504, P<0.01) and depression(46.00(39.00, 54.00); r=0.427, P<0.01). And sleep quality, anxiety and depression were significantly and negatively correlated with the DN: CAS total score(109.5(91.25, 123.75); r=-0.158--0.237, P<0.05). Mediation analysis indicated that anxiety mediated the relationship between sleep quality and attention function(indirect effect β=-0.159, Bootstrap 95% CI=-0.287--0.046). Conclusion:ADHD adolescents exhibit complex interactions among sleep quality, emotion, and cognitive function, sleep quality indirectly affects attention function through anxiety.

Objective:To explore the feasibility, safety, and effectiveness of a novel suture instrument for closure of full thickness defects of the gastric wall under gastroscopy.Methods:Ten pigs were used as experimental animals. Perforation model (30 mm in long diameter) was created in the stomach of each pig. The perforations were then closed by the novel suture instrument under gastroscopy. The completion time and efficacy of each perforation repair were recorded. The pigs were euthanized 14 days after the procedure. The healing condition was observed under gastroscopy. A postmortem examination was performed to observe the abdominal infection and healing condition of perforation. Ascites sample was taken for bacterial culture.The stomach biopsy were taken for histopathologic examination.Results:All gastric perforation models in the 10 pigs were established successfully. Endoscopic closure for the stomach perforation was technically successful in all 10 pigs. The procedure time was 34.10±10.32 minutes. All animals survived. Gastroscopy and necropsy showed that the perforation healed well with local adhesion. One pig developed abdominal infection. Ascites culture were negative in 9 cases, 1 bacterial infection was caused by Arcanobacterium pyogenes and Escherichiacoli. The pathology results showed that the muscular layer of the gastric wall defect in the entire group was well repaired. Conclusion:The novel suture instrument is safe and effective in repairing full-thickness gastric wall defects under ordinary single clamp gastroscopy, providing an experimental basis for further clinical research.

Objective:To explore the impact of sleep disturbances on the symptoms and functional impairment outcomes in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and their path analysis.Methods:A cross-sectional study was made.Two hundred and seventy-eight ADHD children aged 6-12 years were selected from the Center for Cognition and Sleep, the People′s Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from January 2022 to March 2023.The Swanson, Nolan and Pelham Rating Scale Ⅳ was used to evaluate the core symptoms of ADHD (namely, attention deficit and hyperactivity).The sleep disturbance scale for children was used to assess sleep disturbances [including disorders in initiating and maintaining sleep(DIMS), sleep breathing disorders, sleep-wake transition disorders (SWTD), disorders of arousal, disorders of excessive somnolence (DOES) and nocturnal hyperhidrosis].The Weiss Functional Impairment Rating Scale-Parent Report (WFIRS-P) was used to assess functional impairment (in family, learning and school, life skills, self-concept, social activities, and risky activities).The descriptive statistical analysis, t test, multivariate linear regression and path analysis were used for statistical analysis. Results:Compared with those without sleep disturbances, ADHD children with sleep disturbances had significantly more serious functional impairment in family [(0.87±0.42) scores vs.(0.63±0.45) scores, P<0.001], learning and school [(0.75±0.37) scores vs.(0.62±0.35) scores, P=0.011], life skills [(1.30±0.37) scores vs.(1.08±0.30) scores, P<0.001], self-concept [(1.20±0.57) scores vs.(0.92±0.49) scores, P<0.001], social activities [(0.88±0.44) scores vs.(0.67±0.42) scores, P<0.001] and risky activities [(0.28±0.24) scores vs.(0.21±0.21) scores, P=0.043].The results of multivariate linear regression analysis showed that after adjusting for gender, age, total intelligence quotient, and core symptoms of ADHD, the regression coefficients of DOES in domains of family ( B=0.02, P=0.042) and life skills ( B=0.03, P<0.001) and the regression coefficient of DIMS in self-concept were still statistically significant ( B=0.02, P=0.013).The path analysis results showed that DOES ( β=0.170, P=0.004), attention deficit ( β=0.223, P<0.001) and hyperactivity ( β=0.385, P<0.001) directly affected WFIRS-P.DOES indirectly affected WFIRS-P through attention deficit ( β=0.270, P<0.001), and SWTD indirectly affected WFIRS-P through hyperactivity ( β=0.199, P=0.004). Conclusions:Severer sleep disturbances are associated with severer functional impairment in children with ADHD, and sleep phenotypes can directly or indirectly affect functional impairment outcomes in different domains in children with ADHD through core symptoms of ADHD.

Objective:To analyze the relationships among sense of coherence, social avoidance and distress, and severity of depressive symptoms in adolescent patients with depression.Methods:A total of 98 adolescent patients with depression hospitalized at the Affiliated Mental Health Center of Zhejiang University School of Medicine (Hangzhou Seventh People's Hospital) from June 2023 to January 2024 were selected by convenience sampling. The Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D), the Sense of Coherence Scale-13 (SOC-13), and the Social Avoidance and Distress Scale (SADS) were used for assessment. Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to examine the correlations among severity of depressive symptoms, sense of coherence, and social avoidance and distress. A structural equation model was established using AMOS 23.0 software, and the mediating effect was verified by the percentile Bootstrap method with the PROCESS macro.Results:The CES-D total score of the 98 patients was (22.36±1.75) ; the SOC-13 total score was (55.02±3.38), with the highest dimension score in manageability (mean 4.38±0.52 per item). The SADS total score was (19.40±1.39), including a score of (10.26±0.98) for social avoidance and (9.14±1.01) for social distress. Pearson correlation analysis indicated that CES-D total score was negatively correlated with SOC-13 total score and positively correlated with SADS total score ( P<0.05). Mediation analysis showed that social avoidance and distress partially mediated the relationship between sense of coherence and severity of depressive symptoms in adolescents with depression, with a mediation effect value of -0.333, accounting for 62.95% of the total effect (-0.333/-0.529) . Conclusions:Adolescent patients with depression had a generally low level of sense of coherence and a high level of social avoidance and distress. Sense of coherence was negatively correlated with social avoidance and distress.

Objective:
To explore the associations of moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) and sedentary behavior (SB) among primary and secondary school students and their parents, so as to provide a scientific basis for formulating targeted physical activity promotion strategies for children and adolescents.
Methods:
From 2021 to 2022, basic information and 24 h movement behaviors of 2 484 pairs of students and their parents were collected from five primary and secondary schools in Haizhu District, Guangzhou City, with a convenient sampling combining with cluster sampling method. Component regression models were constructed to analyze the relationship between parental MVPA, SB and primary and secondary school students MVPA and SB, and a component isochronous substitution model was used to explore the effects of mutual substitution between parental MVPA, residual components (time use components other than SB during the 24 h period), and SB on the behavioral activities of MVPA and SB in primary and secondary school students.
Results:
Parental MVPA and SB of students in grade 1 to 3 were positively correlated with both students MVPA and SB ( β=0.06, 0.12, P <0.01). The component isochronous substitution model showed that substituting 10 and 20 minutes of MVPA for SB by parents in grade 1 to 3 was associated with an increase in MVPA of students, and substituting 10 and 20 minutes of residual ingredients for SB was associated with a decrease in SB of students, with mean changes of 0.8 (95% CI =0.4-1.2) and 1.4 (95% CI =0.7-2.2) and -1.4 (95% CI =-1.7 to -1.1) and -2.9 (95% CI =-3.4 to -2.3)( P <0.05). No statistically significant associations were observed between parents of students in grades 4 to 6 and 7 to 9 and students physical activity and sedentary behaviour ( P >0.05).
Conclusions
Parents of students in grades 1 to 3 increases MVPA and decrease SB are beneficial to increase MVPA and decrease SB of students. Parents could promote physical activity among primary and secondary school students, and the intervention gateway should be advanced, with the low grades as the optimal intervention period.
