Objective:
To explore the dynamic developmental trajectories of college students class belongingness during their college years and its longitudinal predictive effects on depressive symptoms, so as to provide targeted insights for precise campus psychological interventions.
Methods:
In October 2021 (T1), a total of 4 720 college students from a university in Shandong Province were selected by cluster sampling method and followed up for 3 years. Surveys were conducted annually (T2: October 2022, T3: October 2023, T4: October 2024). The Class Belongingness Scale and Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) were used to assess students class belongingness and depressive symptoms. Latent growth mixture modeling was employed to identify trajectories of class belonging, and multinomial Logistic regression analysis was used to examine the predictive effects of these trajectory classes on depressive symptoms.
Results:
Mean scores of class belongingness across T1-T4 were (73.24±11.95, 74.76±12.25, 75.25±12.38, 77.64±11.63), and the scores of depressive symptoms were [1.00 (0, 5.00), 0 (0, 3.00), 0 (0, 2.00), 0 (0, 2.00)]. The developmental trajectories of class belongingness were categorized into three types: the high-starting ascending group ( 56.61 %), the low-starting descending group (11.91%), and the medium-starting stable group (31.48%). Multinomial Logistic regression analysis showed that, compared to the medium-starting stable group, the high-starting ascending group had a lower probability of developing mild depressive symptoms ( OR=0.27, 95%CI =0.15-0.47) and moderate or above depressive symptoms ( OR=0.29, 95% CI = 0.14-0.60) (both P <0.05). Conversely, the low-starting descending group had a higher probability of developing mild depressive symptoms ( OR=2.31, 95%CI =1.65-3.22) and moderate or above depressive symptoms ( OR=7.49, 95%CI = 3.82-14.69) (both P <0.05).
Conclusion
Declining trajectory of class belongingness is a risk factor for depressive symptoms, while sustained upward trend may mitigate such risks.

OBJECTIVE To provide guidance for the individualized use of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) in patients with epilepsy or bipolar affective disorder.METHODS Clinical data of patients with epilepsy or bipolar affective disorder who received AEDs treatment and underwent therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) at Xi’an International Medical Center Hospital from January 2023 to December 2025 were retrospectively collected. The baseline information, characteristics of AEDs utilization, implementation status of TDM and laboratory parameters were summarized. Spearman correlation analysis, univariate analysis and multivariate linear regression analysis were performed to identify the independent influencing factors for blood concentrations of AEDs.RESULTS A total of 1 572 patients were enrolled, including 660 males and 912 females. The majority were aged ≥60 years (30.15%); 71.76% of patients were on monotherapy with AEDs, with valproic acid being the most commonly prescribed (51.97%); combination therapy was predominantly a two-drug regimen (26.21%), while three-drug regimens were rare (2.04%). A total of 2 901 blood samples for TDM were collected, with the highest number of samples for valproic acid and levetiracetam (1 987 and 684 samples, respectively). TDM for all five drugs was primarily conducted once; among which, the blood concentrations attainment rates exceeded 50% for patients taking valproic acid and levetiracetam, while the median blood concentrations for patients taking lamotrigine, oxcarbazepine, and carbamazepine were all below the lower limit of the therapeutic reference range. Based on the results of Spearman correlation analysis, univariate analysis, and multivariate linear regression analysis, patient gender, platelet count (PLT), alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), and total bilirubin (TBil) were found to be independent factors influencing blood concentration of valproic acid (unstandardized coefficients were -6.770 7, -0.078 6, -0.099 4, 0.083 2, -0.578 9, P <0.05), while age and creatinine (CRE) were found to be independent factors influencing blood concentration of levetiracetam (unstandardized coefficients were 0.108 7, 0.047 8, P <0.05).CONCLUSIONS Female gender and elevated AST levels are risk factors for increased blood concentration of valproic acid, while elevated PLT, ALT and TBil levels are associated with decreased blood concentration of valproic acid. Patients of advanced age and those with renal insufficiency bear a relatively high risk of in vivo levetiracetam accumulation.

OBJECTIVE To construct three-class (insufficient, normal, excessive) and two-class (insufficient, normal) models for predicting plasma concentration of valproic acid (VPA), and compare the performance of these two models, with the aim of providing a reference for formulating clinical medication strategies. METHODS The clinical data of 480 patients who received VPA treatment and underwent blood concentration test at the Xi’an International Medical Center Hospital were collected from November 2022 to September 2024 (a total of 695 sets of data). In this study, predictive models were constructed for target variables of three-class and two-class models. Feature ranking and selection were carried out using XGBoost scores. Twelve different machine learning algorithms were used for training and validation, and the performance of the models was evaluated using three indexes: accuracy, F1 score, and the area under the working characteristic curve of the subject (AUC). RESULTS XGBoost feature importance scores revealed that in the three-class model, the importance ranking of kidney disease and electrolyte disorders was higher. However, in the two-class model, the importance ranking of these features significantly decreased, suggesting a close association with the excessive blood concentration of VPA. In the three-class model, Random Forest method performed best, with F1 score of 0.704 0 and AUC of 0.519 3 on the test set; while in the two-class model, CatBoost method performed optimally, with F1 score of 0.785 7 and AUC of 0.819 5 on the test set. CONCLUSIONS The constructed three-class model has the ability to predict excessive VPA blood concentration, but its prediction and model generalization abilities are poor; the constructed two-class model can only perform classification prediction for insufficient and normal blood concentration cases, but its model performance is stronger.

Myocardial infarction is a serious type of myocardial ischemic disease. Traditional treatments can only alleviate clinical symptoms and cannot repair damaged myocardium. In this review, the application progress of chitosan-based composite scaffolds in myocardial repair and regeneration after myocardial infarction was reviewed. Combining chitosan with polymers, such as natural proteins and natural polysaccharides can mimic the properties of natural myocardial tissue, reducing ventricular wall stress while increasing biological activity and promoting the retention, repair or regeneration of myocardial cells. Combining chitosan with synthetic polymers and nanomaterials can promote the repair and regeneration of myocardial cells, improve the electrophysiological function of the infarcted area and resynchronise cardiac contraction.

Objective:To evaluate the early efficacy and safety of the exclusively transnasal endoscopic approach and the combined transconjunctival-endoscopic approach in the resection of benign orbital apex lesions.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 51 patients who underwent transnasal endoscopic resection of benign lesions in the orbital apex at Peking University Third Hospital from May 2021 to December 2024. The study population was composed of 17 males and 34 females, with the age of (39.4±12.4) years (range: 4 to 65 years). Pathology diagnoses were identified as orbital cavernous hemangioma (OCH, n=38), schwannoma ( n=8), solitary fibrous tumor ( n=1), mucocele ( n=1), optic nerve sheath meningioma ( n=1), pseudotumor ( n=1), and organized hematoma ( n=1). Two surgical approaches were compared as the exclusively transnasal endoscopic resection ( n=27) and the combined transconjunctival-endoscopic approach (combined approach, n=24). Preoperative and postoperative evaluations were conducted for the best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), visual field, intraocular pressure (IOP), and exophthalmos before and after surgery. Demographic characteristics, tumor features, and postoperative complications were analyzed between the two surgical groups. Differences in Orbital Resection by Intranasal Technique (ORBIT) stage between the two surgical approaches were analyzed. SPSS 27.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Results:Among the 51 patients, 3 schwannomas underwent intracapsular resection (1 via exclusively transnasal endoscopic approach, and 2 via combined approach), and the remaining 48 patients underwent complete tumor resection. Significant postoperative improvements were observed in BCVA, visual field, IOP and exophthalmos ( t value was 2.96, 4.34, 4.85, and 4.63, respectively, all P<0.05). The combined approach required longer operative time but showed comparable intraoperative blood loss. Tumors resected via the combined approach were larger in volume, though not statistically significant. Postoperative complications (e.g., diplopia, mydriasis) were more frequent in the combined approach group but resolved within a short-term period. There was no significant difference in ORBIT stage between the two groups ( P=0.178). Conclusions:Both exclusively transnasal and combined transconjunctival-endoscopic approaches prove safe and effective for benign orbital apex lesions resection. The combined approach ensures complete tumor removal.

Objective:To evaluate the early efficacy and safety of transnasal endoscopic surgical resection of orbital cavernous hemangioma (OCH) at orbital resection by intranasal technique (ORBIT) stage Ⅲ.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 20 patients (20 eyes) who underwent nasal endoscopic surgery to remove ORBIT stage Ⅲ OCH at the Third Hospital of Peking University from July 2021 to July 2024. The cohort were included 10 males and 10 females, aged from 25 to 59 years, with a mean follow-up time of (5.10±4.51) months. Preoperative symptoms included visual field defects in 19 patients (95%), decreased visual acuity in 18 patients (90%), exophthalmos in 2 patients (10%), diplopia in 2 patients (10%), headache in 2 patients (10%), ocular pain in 2 patients (10%), and color vision abnormalities in 1 patient (5%). Data on patient demographics, medical history, imaging data, surgical approach, and postoperative outcomes were collected. Pre-and post-surgical outcomes including best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), visual field, proptosis, and intraocular pressure were compared. Surgical approaches included transnasal endoscopic OCH resection (12 cases, 60%) and transnasal endoscopic combined conjunctival approach OCH resection (8 cases, 40%). The results of the postoperative 2-week review were used as the postoperative short-term efficacy data, and those at 3 months were used for postoperative therapeutic efficacy analysis. SPSS 26.0 statistical software was applied for statistical analysis.Results:In 20 patients, all OCH were completely resected, and the BCVA, visual field, and exophthalmos were significantly improved post-operatively. The differences were statistically significant before and after surgery ( t values were 3.169, 5.127, and 3.350, respectively, all P<0.05). There were no serious complications in the short term after surgery. The short-term complications after endoscopic surgery alone were mainly new-onset diplopia in 1 case (1/12), and the short-term complications after combined approach were new-onset diplopia in 5 cases (5/8) and pupil dilation in 2 cases (2/8). All short-term complications recovered within 3 months, and no serious or permanent complications occurred in the long-term follow. Conclusion:The endoscopic transnasal surgery is a safe and effective approach for complete resection of ORBIT stage Ⅲ OCH, with promising early results.

Objective:Middle ear cholesteatoma is a common otolaryngological disease, and traditional diagnostic methods have certain limitations. This study aims to construct a computer-aided diagnosis model for middle ear cholesteatoma based on integrated convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to improve diagnostic accuracy and efficiency.Methods:Firstly, Data were collected from patients who visited the Department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery at the First People′s Hospital of Yinchuan between January 2020 and December 2021. 8 000 temporal bone CT images were collected, including 5 000 images diagnosed pathologically as middle ear cholesteatoma and 3 000 normal images. A five-fold cross-validation method was used to divide the dataset into training and testing sets. Next, a transfer learning approach was used to initialize model parameters, and the AlexNet, GoogleNet, and ResNet networks were pre-trained to extract deep features from the images. Then, the Softmax classification algorithm was applied to classify the features, resulting in three independent classifiers. These classifiers were combined using an ensemble learning method with a weighted voting approach to obtain the final diagnostic results. Finally, the model was evaluated by comparing the ensemble classifier with individual classifiers to assess its accuracy, precision, sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic time, and a comparison with low-mid-and high-experience physician groups was conducted to comprehensively evaluate the model′s diagnostic performance.Results:The experimental results showed that the model achieved an accuracy of 88.8%(178/200), precision of 92.9%,(112/120) sensitivity of 89.8%(108/120), and specificity of 88.1%(70/80). The average diagnostic time for individual patient temporal bone CT images was reduced to 2-3 seconds. Compared to the diagnostic results from low-mid-and high-experience physician groups, the model demonstrated significant advantages and effectively assisted clinicians in making rapid and accurate middle ear cholesteatoma diagnoses.Conclusion:The proposed middle ear cholesteatoma diagnostic model based on integrated convolutional neural networks exhibits high recognition accuracy and rapid diagnostic speed, significantly improving clinical diagnostic efficiency, especially in early screening and auxiliary diagnosis, making it of considerable value in clinical practice.
