Objective:
To explore the relationship between parenting styles and depressive symptoms in adolescents with nightmare disorder, so as to provide a scientific basis for formulating effective family intervention measures and psychological counseling.
Methods:
From January 2023 to August 2024, 90 adolescents diagnosed with nightmare disorder and admitted to Hangzhou Seventh Peoples Hospital, along with 176 healthy controls from the urban areas of Hangzhou, were recruited as participants in the study. All participants were assessed using the Nightmare Experience Questionnaire (NEQ), Family Relationship Questionnaire (FRQ), and Plutchik-van Praag Selfreport Depression Scale (PVP). The ttest and Chisquare test were conducted to compare two groups. Pearson correlation and stepwise multiple linear regression were employed to explore the correlations between PVP and NEQ or FRQ. The Process model was used to testing the mediating effects among NEQ/FRQ/PVP.
Results:
The nightmare disorder group had higher scores in nightmare frequency, the four factors of NEQ (physical effect, negative emotion, meaning interpretation, horrible stimulation), and PVP than the healthy control group (24.86±18.89, 10.12±3.67, 19.01±3.51, 17.02±3.31, 15.14±3.26, 14.02±4.38; 2.34±1.04, 6.49±2.18, 17.63±4.76, 13.91±4.24, 12.40±4.49, 9.39±3.28)(t=15.79, 10.11, 2.43, 6.09, 5.14, 27.46, P<0.05). The nightmare disorder group reported significantly lower scores in FRQ general attachment and maternal encouragement than the healthy control group (7.22±2.81, 16.39±3.28) (t=-5.53, -4.95). In contrast, they exhibited significantly higher scores in maternal abuse, maternal dominance, paternal freedom release, and paternal dominance than the healthy control group (8.23±1.80, 13.11±3.73, 18.36±3.37, 12.04±3.29; 6.07±1.85, 8.48±3.80, 15.15±2.51, 9.47±3.03) (t=6.70, 8.96, 5.90, 7.04, P<0.01). The results of Pearson correlation analysis showed that, in the nightmare disorder group, the PVP score was positively correlated with negative emotion, nightmare frequency, maternal abuse, and maternal dominance score (r=0.14, 0.63, 0.26, 0.51, P<0.05). The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that when using FRQ score to predict NEQ score, the adjusted R2 in the nightmare disorder group was 0.01-0.59. Mother abuse could prediced physical effect (β=0.33); maternal dominance significantly predicted negative emotion, horrible stimulation, and nightmare frequency (β=0.29, 0.30, 0.79); paternal freedom release could predict negative emotion (β=0.26), paternal dominance predicted both negative emotion and nightmare frequency (β=0.22, 0.45) (P<0.05). Mediation analysis further revealed that, in the nightmare disorder group, PVP scores served as a mediating variable between FRQ and NEQ.
Conclusion
Abusive, controlling, and neglectful family upbringing styles as well as depression maybe are key factors that may contribute to the development of nightmare disorder among adolescents.

A method for determination and targeted screening of diflorasone components in health products using ultra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time of flight mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-TOF/MS)was established.Four representative diflorasone and esters(diflorasone,diflorasone diacetate,diflorasone-17-propionate,and diflorasone-21-propionate)were selected to optimize the pretreatment conditions,and 10 mL of extraction solvent dosage,15 min of extraction time and 5 g of salting-out agent as the optimal conditions were selected by response surface methodology.The results showed that the four analytes exhibited good linearity within the concentration range of 2.0?100 μg/L with the chromatographic peak area,and the correlation coefficients(R2)were all greater than 0.9990,while the results of recovery and relative standard deviation could satisfy the requirements of determination.The common characteristic ions of diflorasone and esters werem/z121 andm/z335,and their specific structures were obtained by analyzing the cleavage pathway based on the optimized determination conditions.A targeted screening method for other esters of diflorasone based on characteristic ions guidance strategy was established.This method had many advantages such as high efficiency,high sensitivity and good reproducibility,and could be used for targeted screening of diflorasone and esters in health products.The developed characteristic ion guided strategy could be employed to construct mass spectral databases for various glucocorticoids,enabling comprehensive targeted screening across a broad range of compounds.

Osteoporotic fractures(OPF) refer to the fractures caused by minor violence in the state of osteoporosis, seriously threatening the life and health of elderly patients. Drug and surgical therapies have limitations such as single targets, diverse adverse reactions, and poor prognosis. Kidney-tonifying traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) has good potential in the treatment of OPF. TCM can promote the healing of OPF by promoting angiogenesis in the early stage of bone healing, promoting osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in the stage of bone repair, maintaining the balance of osteogenic and osteoclastic system in the stage of bone remodeling, and regulating the oxidative stress responses throughout the process of OPF healing. TCM can alleviate the pathological state of osteoporosis and promote fracture healing in OPF patients via multiple pathways and targets, demonstrating the advantages and potential of biphasic regulation.

OBJECTIVE:
Previous studies have shown that insomnia is closely related to erectile dysfunction(ED). However, the causal relationship between them is still unclear. Mendelian randomization (MR) provides a new method for studying the relationship between the two, and the theory of heart-kidney interaction in TCM provides a new idea for exploring the causal relationship between them.
METHODS:
Based on the statistical data collected by genome-wide association studies (GWAS), the causal relationship between insomnia and ED was discussed by MR. Inverse variance weighted (IVW) is the main analysis method, and weighted median (WME), simple mode (SM), weighted mode (WM) and MR Egger method were the supplementary analysis to evaluate the causal effect. MR-Egger intercept test, Cochran Q test and leave-one-out method were used in sensitivity analysis to verify the reliability of MR results.
RESULTS:
Thirty-nine SNPs significantly related to insomnia were finally included for MR analysis. The results of IVW method in MR analysis showed that insomnia had a significant causal relationship with the increased risk of ED (OR = 3.111,95% CI= 1.566-6.181,P=1.193×10-3). The results obtained by MR-Egger method, WME method, WM method and SM method were consistent with IVW method in the direction of effect. The sensitivity results suggested that the results of this study were robust.
CONCLUSION
Our study reveals the causal relationship between insomnia and ED, which provides a new basis for future clinical practice and prevention and treatment of ED.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of induction therapy with first-line chidamide plus chemotherapy and sequential chidamide maintenance therapy for peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) to provide evidence for clinical medication.Methods:The relevant literature in the databases of Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMbase, Web of Science, Chinese Biomedical Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure Database, Wanfang, and VIP from December 2014 to November 2023 were retrieved. Meta-analysis and comparison were conducted on the objective response rate (ORR), complete remission (CR) rate, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) of patients receiving induction therapy with first-line chidamide plus chemotherapy and sequential chidamide maintenance therapy (chidamide combined with chemotherapy group) and those receiving chemotherapy alone (control group). A systematic descriptive analysis was performed on the occurrence of adverse events.Results:A total of 5 relevant literature on the induction therapy with first-line chidamide plus CHOP/CHOP-like regimens and sequential chidamide maintenance therapy for PTCL was included, including 350 initial-treated PTCL patients. Among them, there were 176 cases in the chidamide combined with chemotherapy group and 174 cases in the control group. The CR rate of the chidamide combined with chemotherapy group was higher than that of the control group [59.6% (90/151) (95% CI: 51.9%-67.5%) vs. 41.6% (62/149) (95% CI: 27.8%-51.7%)], and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.01); the ORR of the chidamide combined with chemotherapy group was 83.4% (126/151) (95% CI: 73.3%-94.1%), while the control group was 69.1% (103/149) (95% CI: 58.4%-79.2%), and the difference was not statistically significant ( P = 0.051). The 2-year PFS rate of the chidamide combined with chemotherapy group was higher than that of the control group [60.2% (106/176) (95% CI: 47.1%-74.6%) vs. 31.6% (55/174) (95% CI: 17.8%-45.7%)], and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.01); the 2-year OS rate of the chidamide combined with chemotherapy group was higher than that of the control group [83.2% (114/137) (95% CI: 66.8%-100.0%) vs. 53.4% (93/174) (95% CI: 42.1%-67.9%)], and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.01). There was no statistically significant difference between the chidamide combined with chemotherapy group and the control group in the incidence of grade 3-4 neutropenia [60.6% (20/33) and 57.6% (19/33)], anemia [17.9% (20/112) and 16.0% (17/106)] and thrombocytopenia [22.3% (25/112) and 22.6% (24/106)] (all P > 0.05); during the maintenance therapy with chidamide, the incidence of grade 3-4 neutropenia, anemia and thrombocytopenia was 28.1% (9/32), 12.5% (4/32) and 15.6% (5/32), respectively; the hematological adverse events mostly occured within 6 weeks of initial administration and were relieved after symptomatic treatment. Conclusions:Compared with only receiving chemotherapy, the first-line combination therapy with chidamide and CHOP/CHOP-like regimens can improve the CR rate of PTCL patients, and the maintenance therapy with chidamide alone after remission can improve PFS and OS and the hematological adverse reactions are tolerable.
