ObjectiveTo develop an emotion management course and evaluate its effectiveness in improving emotion regulation, coping strategies, and anxiety and depression among first-year university students, so as to provide a basis for colleges to optimize mental health education courses. MethodsUsing a multi-stage cluster random sampling method, five classes of first-year students (n=169) from a university were randomly selected as participants, with three classes assigned to the experimental group (n=102) and two classes to the control group (n=67). The experimental group attended both the standard mental health education course and the emotion management course developed in this study, while the control group only attended the standard mental health education course. Pre- and post-intervention assessments were conducted using the Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ), Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ), Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), and Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS). ResultsBefore the intervention, there were no significant differences between the experimental group and the control group in ERQ, SCSQ, SDS, and SAS scores (P>0.05). After the intervention, the experimental group demonstrated greater improvements than the control group in the ERQ expression inhibition subscale (14.42±5.05, 16.12±5.65), SCSQ positive coping tendency (1.97±0.51, 1.80±0.49) and negative coping tendency (1.26±0.55, 1.47±0.50), as well as in SDS (50.26±11.48, 53.86±8.21) and SAS (43.96±11.97, 47.59±9.50) scores (t value: 2.039, 2.144, 2.572; Z value: -2.214, -2.486; P<0.05). Compared with pre-intervention scores, the experimental group also showed improvements in the ERQ cognitive reappraisal subscale (32.19±5.76, 30.92±6.18), SCSQ positive coping tendency (1.97±0.51, 1.83±0.48), and SDS scores (50.26±11.48, 50.75±11.59) (t value: -2.654, -3.027; Z value: -2.100, P<0.05). ConclusionThe emotion management course effectively enhances students’ use of cognitive reappraisal strategies while reducing reliance on expressive suppression. It also contributes to improvements in coping strategies for life events and alleviates symptoms of depression and anxiety. Universities should consider integrating emotion management education into their curricula to enhance the mental well-being of first-year students.

Rheumatoid arthritis （RA） is an autoimmune disease characterized primarily by erosive arthritis， with a high prevalence and disability rate. Although significant progress has been made in the treatment of RA in recent years， challenges such as suboptimal efficacy， drug resistance， severe side effects， and high costs of long-term treatment remain， especially for patients in the early stages of RA， as well as those with RA complications， comorbidities， and severe conditions. Hosted by the China-Japan Friendship Hospital and organized by the Youth Committee of the China Association of Chinese Medicine， the 27^th session of the Clinical Dominant Disease Series （Rheumatoid Arthritis） Youth Salon invited nearly 20 experts and scholars from traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， western medicine， and interdisciplinary fields to actively discuss the clinical needs of modern medicine and the advantageous stages and aspects of TCM in RA. Experts at the salon agreed that TCM has unique advantages in the treatment of RA， especially during the early stage， periods of low to moderate disease activity， remission phase， and in addressing complications and comorbidities. TCM can achieve both prevention and treatment by regulating the immune system and restoring immune homeostasis. The integrated approach of traditional Chinese and western medicine demonstrates significant advantages in active RA， refractory cases， and stages with severe complications， by rapidly controlling disease progression， alleviating symptoms， enhancing the quality of life， and facilitating recovery. Given the frequent occurrence of multiple comorbidities in RA， TCM shows potential in regulating immunity， alleviating symptoms， and improving physical constitution， which provides new insights into the comprehensive treatment of RA with comorbidities. However， high-quality clinical studies on integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine in RA are still lacking. It is necessary to establish large-scale clinical cohorts and biological databases to provide a scientific basis for the development of precision-targeted therapies and clinical treatment protocols. In the future， individualized treatment strategies integrating traditional Chinese and western medicine are expected to become an important direction for improving the quality of life in RA patients.

Objective:To compare image quality and diagnostic parameters of whole-brain CT perfusion scans under different scanning conditions and assess the utility of deep learning image reconstruction algorithm (DLIR) in reducing tube current during low-dose scans.Methods:Method A total of 105 patients with suspected acute ischemic stroke (AIS) were prospectively enrolled in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from March, 2022 to March, 203 and their baseline information was recorded. All patients underwent head non-contrast CT and CT perfusion (CTP) examinations. CTP scanning was performed at 80 kV in two groups with the tube current of 150 mA (regular dose) and 100 mA (low dose), respectively. The CTP images of 150 mA group were reconstructed using filtered back-projection algorithm as well as adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction-V (ASIR-V) at 40% and 80% strength levels, which were denoted as groups A-C. The CTP images of 100 mA group were reconstructed using ASIR-V80%, DLIR-M, and DLIR-H, which were denoted as groups D-F. Clinical baseline characteristics and radiation doses were compared between the two groups under different scanning conditions. Furthermore, we assessed the subjective and objective image quality, conventional perfusion parameters, and abnormal perfusion parameters of AIS patients across the six groups of reconstructed CTP images.Results:Under the scanning conditions of 150 mA and 100 mA, 47 and 48 patients were diagnosed with AIS, respectively. There were no significant differences in the baseline characteristics between the two groups. However, there was a significant difference in the mean effective radiation dose (5.71 mSv vs. 3.80 mSv, t = 2 768.30, P < 0.001). The standard deviation (SD) of noise, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) of gray matter (GM) and white matter (WM) were significantly different among the six groups of reconstructed images ( F = 40.58-212.13, P < 0.001). In GM, the SD values in groups C, D, and F were lower than those in other groups ( P < 0.05), and the SNR values in groups C and F were higher than those in other groups ( P < 0.05). In WM, the SD and SNR values in groups C and F were significantly different from those in other groups ( P < 0.05). Additionally, CNR values in groups C and F were higher than those in other groups ( P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in subjective scores among groups B, C, and F ( P > 0.05). Regarding perfusion parameters in the brain GM, groups D and E had lower cerebral blood volume (CBV) values compared to groups A to C ( P < 0.05), and group F had lower CBV values than group B ( P < 0.05). In the brain WM, group D had consistently lower mean transit time (MTT) values compared to the other groups ( P < 0.05). Notably, there were no significant differences in AIS lesion detection rates and relevant diagnostic parameters across the six image groups. Conclusions:Low-tube current CTP scan combined with the DLIR-H algorithm can enhance image quality without affecting perfusion parameters such as CBV and MTT, while reducing radiation dose by 30%. This algorithm can be routinely applied in brain CTP examinations.

Objective:To explore the genetic causes of cerebellar hypoplasia (CH) diagnosed by prenatal ultrasound.Methods:This retrospective study involved 32 fetuses with CH diagnosed by prenatal ultrasound in Wuxi Maternal and Child Health Hospital from January 2014 to December 2022. Prenatal ultrasound findings and genetic testing results for amniotic fluid were collected and analyzed. The correlation between fetal CH and genetic abnormality was analyzed. A descriptive statistical method was used for data analysis.Results:(1) General data: The 32 mothers were (28.0±4.9) years old, ranging from 18 to 37 years old; the gestational age at amniocentesis was (24.2±4.0) weeks, ranging from 18 +3 weeks to 37 +2 weeks. Apart from one case lost to follow-up, the other 31 cases terminated the pregnancies, including 30 terminated before 28 weeks of gestation and one at 33 weeks of gestation due to unmarried status. (2) Ultrasonic features: Among the 32 cases, 30(93.8%) were complicated by intracranial or extracranial abnormalities including cardiac abnormalities (15 cases), dilated lateral ventricles (ten cases), and abnormalities in limbs (eight cases) and face (nine cases). Two CH cases (6.2%) were isolated. (3) Genetic testing: Among the 32 cases, 13 cases (40.6%) had normal results of amniotic fluid karyotype analysis and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array. Among the 19 cases with abnormal amniotic fluid test results (59.4%), 16 cases have abnormal results in amniotic fluid karyotype analysis and SNP array detection [nine cases were numerical abnormalities, including five cases of trisomy-18, three of trisomy-21, and one of trisomy-13; seven cases were chromosomal structural abnormalities, including four cases of terminal deletion of chromosome 5 (Cri-du-Chat syndrome) and three cases of reciprocal translocation of chromosomes]. There was no abnormality in karyotype analysis of amniotic fluid in three cases. Still, their SNP array test results showed copy number variations (CNV) [one of 6q terminal deletion, one of 6q terminal deletion with 5p15.33 duplication, and one of 6q terminal deletion with 15q26.3 duplication; all variations were of unknown significance]. (4) Of the 19 cases with abnormal SNP array results, 17 were accompanied by abnormal intracranial/extracranial ultrasound findings. Among them, ten cases showed cardiac malformation, seven showed lateral ventricular widening, and seven showed limb abnormality. Conclusions:Numerical abnormalities, CDCS, and 6q terminal deletion are the most common genetic causes of CH diagnosed by prenatal ultrasound. Chromosome microarray analysis should be recommended for fetuses with ultrasound-diagnosed CH to evaluate fetal prognosis accurately.
