Objective: To explore the impact of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) on health risk behaviors (HRBs) among college students and the mediating role of psychological symptoms, so as to provide a basis for developing intervention strategies. Methods: From March to April 2023, a convenience cluster sample of 1 801 students from 12 universities in Nanning, Liuzhou, Guilin, Wuzhou of Guangxi completed an online survey. A self designed questionnaire, Adverse Childhood Experiences-International Questionnaire (ACE-IQ) and Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90) were used for evaluation tools. Binary Logistic regression, structural equation modeling (SEM) and Bootstrap methods were used to analyze the associations and mediating effects. Results: Overall, 71.2% of college students experienced at least one type of ACE, with emotional neglect (40.3%) and emotional abuse ( 25.2 %) having the highest detection rates. The top three HRBs were unhealthy diet (77.8%), physical inactivity (54.1%), and smoking/alcohol use (18.5%). Logistic regression showed that poor family functioning, abuse, and extra familial violence were each associated with an increased risk of smoking/alcohol use ( OR =1.14, 1.11, 1.18) and deliberate self harm ( OR =1.26, 1.19,1.30) (all P <0.05). Experience of abuse increased the risk of high risk sexual behavior and family dysfunction increaded the risk of physical inactivity, respectively ( OR = 1.07 , 1.04, both P <0.05). Mediation analysis revealed that anxiety ( β =0.20) and depression ( β = 0.09 ) partially mediated the pathway from poor family functioning to deliberate self harm; paranoia ( β =0.02) partially mediated the pathway from abuse to high risk sexual behavior; and obsessive-compulsive symptoms ( β =0.26) and depression ( β =0.10) partially mediated the pathway from extra familial violence to deliberate self harm (all P <0.05). Conclusion Psychological symptoms play a mediating role in the association between ACEs and HRBs, and mental health interventions may reduce the risk of HRBs among college students.

BACKGROUND:Apoptosis plays an important role in secondary brain injury.Therefore,to explore the pathophysiological mechanism of promoting nerve cell survival after traumatic brain injury provides a new direction and theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of traumatic brain injury. OBJECTIVE:To explore the expression changes of Lnx1 molecule in mammalian cortical neurons after brain injury and the possible mechanism involved in secondary brain injury. METHODS:Eighty adult SD rats were divided into 20 male and 20 female mice in sham operation group and 20 male and 20 female mice in traumatic brain injury group.The traumatic brain injury rat model was established by heavy falling method.At 6,12,24,48,and 72 hours after brain injury,the expression of related molecules in damaged cortical neurons was analyzed by RT-qPCR,western blot assay,and immunofluorescence staining. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The brain tissue of traumatic brain injury group was bleeding and obvious tissue injury could be observed.Water content of brain tissue increased after traumatic brain injury.(2)Compared with the sham operation group,the expression of Lnx1 in cortical neurons after traumatic brain injury increased significantly at 24 hours after injury.(3)After traumatic brain injury,the expression of PBK and BCR protein decreased,and the pro-survival factor ctgf increased.(4)These findings suggest that after traumatic brain injury,the expression of Lnx1 is up-regulated in neurons,which may be due to the decrease of the expression of its target molecules PBK and BCR,and further promote the expression of living factor ctgf,which has a protective effect on the damaged neurons.

Objective:To analyze the clinical manifestations and fundus multimodal imaging features of patients with acute Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) syndrome, and provide a reference for early diagnosis of VKH syndrome.Methods:Retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data and related examinations including spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA), and indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) of patients diagnosed with acute VKH syndrome in the Ophthalmology Department of the Beijing Friendship Hospital from January 2017 to December 2022.Results:A total of 17 patients (34 eyes) with acute VKH syndrome were included. SD-OCT showed exudative retinal detachment in all 34 eyes with punctate hyperreflective signals; 26 eyes had choroidal folds, and 14 patients (28 eyes) had " septum-like" structures under the neuroepithelium. FFA early images showed late retinal fluorescence pooling in a multi-lake pattern in all 34 eyes. ICGA was performed in 15 patients (30 eyes), with early images showing hyperfluorescence of choroidal vessels in all 30 eyes; 26 eyes had scattered hypofluorescent lesions in the fundus. Mid-to-late images showed blurred boundaries of choroidal vessels in 28 eyes.Conclusions:Patients with acute VKH syndrome have characteristic manifestations in SD-OCT, FFA, and ICGA. Fundus multimodal imaging can provide important references for the diagnosis of VKH syndrome.

Objective:To evaluate clinical outcomes of occlusion-guided vascularized folded fibula flap reconstruction with delayed implant restoration for mandibular defects after benign tumor resection.Methods:A total of 12 patients with benign mandibular tumors underwent free folded fibula flap reconstruction at the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical University between January 2020 and December 2023, including 7 males and 5 females, aged 21-52 years. Six months after mandibular reconstruction, the internal fixation titanium plates were removed, and dental implants were placed using a preoperatively fabricated occlusal guide, followed by second-stage implant surgery and prosthetic restoration. Mandibular CT scans were obtained 6 months after reconstruction to compare the fitting accuracy between the preoperative virtual design and the actual reconstructed mandible. The implant stability quotient (ISQ) was measured 3 months after implant placement. Masticatory efficiency and Enneking lower limb function scores were evaluated at the following time points: before tumor surgery (T1), before implant placement (T2), 6 months (T3) and 9 months (T4) after implant crown restoration. One-way repeated measures ANOVA was used to analyze the masticatory efficiency and lower limb function scores.Results:The free folded fibula grafts were successfully performed via an intraoral approach in all 12 patients, with a 100% of survival rate. Mandibular defects included Brown class I in 6 cases, class II in 2 cases, and class III in 4 cases. A total of 42 implants were placed with successful osseointegration. The ISQ measured at 3 months post-placement was 64.10±4.18. At 6 months postoperatively, morphological analysis comparing the preoperative virtual surgical design with the actual postoperative reconstructed mandible revealed a reconstruction accuracy of 84.27%±4.23%. Significant differences were observed in Enneking scores and masticatory efficiency across all four time points (all P<0.001). Masticatory function showed significant improvement at T4 compared that at T2 [(88.06±3.66)% vs. (65.44±3.82)%, P<0.05]. Conclusion:Occlusal function-guided mandibular reconstruction with vascularized folded fibula flap after removal of benign mandibular tumors is a reliable method, which is associated with minimal donor-site morbidity and enables patients to restore precise occlusion and to achieve favorable masticatory efficiency.

Objective:To analyze the efficacy of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) combined with main splenic artery embolization in the treatment of patients with portal hypertension upper gastrointestinal bleeding complicated with extensive portal vein thrombosis (PVT).Methods:This study was a prospective, single-center, open-label, single-arm clinical trial. In the first phase, 81 patients with portal hypertension upper gastrointestinal bleeding who were admitted to Beijing Shijitan Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2018 to December 2018 were consecutively enrolled, including 57 males and 24 females, with the age of (51.3±10.4) years. During TIPS surgery, the pressure of the portal vein before and after the balloon blocking the splenic artery was measured to clarify the contribution of the splenic artery to portal hypertension. In the second stage, from January 2019 to December 2022, 104 patients with portal hypertension upper gastrointestinal bleeding complicated with extensive PVT were re-enrolled, including 71 males and 33 females, with the age of (50.9±12.5) years. TIPS combined with main splenic artery embolization was performed, and portal vein pressure was measured before and after embolization. Follow up on the postoperative esophageal and gastric varices of the patients in the second stage.Results:The portal vein pressures before and after the first stage of balloon occlusion of the splenic artery were (35.2±8.4) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) and (24.2±6.3) mmHg, respectively. The pressure after occlusion was lower than that before occlusion, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=10.54, P<0.001). The portal vein pressures before and after the second stage embolization were (36.1±9.5) mmHg and (21.1±4.7) mmHg respectively. The pressure after embolization was lower than that before embolization, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=13.47, P<0.001). In the second stage, among the 104 patients, the proportion of those whose varicose veins disappeared or improved 6 months after the operation was 43.3%(45/104) and 51.0%(53/104), respectively. There were no patients with aggravation or rebleeding due to rupture. One year later, 8 patients (7.7%) had aggravated or ruptured esophageal and gastric varices with bleeding. Two years later, 12 patients (11.5%) had aggravated or bleeding. Conclusion:TIPS combined with main splenic artery embolization can effectively reduce the portal vein pressure in patients with portal hypertension upper gastrointestinal bleeding complicated with extensive PVT, improve the degree of esophageal and gastric varices, and reduce the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding.

[Purpose]To analyze the cost-effectiveness and cost-utility conducted on the lung can-cer screening project in urban areas of Anhui Province,and to provide suggestions for the formu-lation of lung cancer screening policies in Anhui Province.[Methods]A Markov decision model for low-dose computed tomography(LDCT)lung cancer screening intervention was established based on on-site survey data and literature data.The development of the population under different interventions was simulated,using saved life years(LYS)and quality-adjusted life years(QALY)as effectiveness indicators,to conduct cost-effectiveness and cost-utility analyses of different screening strategies.Cost data were discounted at a 3％discount rate.[Results]The screening schemes of once a year,once every two years,once every three years,and once every five years all meet the cost-effectiveness principle for saving one LYS or QALY.Among them,the best screening strategy in terms of cost-effectiveness and cost-utility was the LDCT lung cancer screening strategy once every two years,with costs of 72 441.54 CNY and 71 050.24 CNY,respectively.[Conclusion]The LDCT lung cancer screening program demonstrates good cost-effectiveness,with strategies of dif-ferent screening frequencies being viable options.The optimal screening strategy is screening once every two years.

Objective This study aims to investigate the current status and determinants of compassion fatigue symptoms among orthopedic nurses,and to analyze the interrelationships among these determinants to provide references for targeted intervention development.Methods From May to June 2024,a convenience sampling method was employed to recruit orthopedic nurses from 20 tertiary hospitals across 14 provinces and cities in China.The survey instruments encompassed the general demographic information sheet,the Compassion Fatigue Scale,the Social Support Rating Scale,the Nurses' Psychological Capital Questionnaire,and the Professional Identity Questionnaire.The data were analyzed using univariate analysis,Spearman correlation analysis,and multiple linear regression analysis.A structured equation model was also developed.Results Totally 1 397 valid questionnaires were collected,and the effective response rate was 96.94％(1 397/1 441).The average score of compassion fatigue symptoms was 47.41±12.16.The multiple linear regression analysis indicated that professional identity,social support,psychological capital,length of service,and frequency of night shifts per week were independent determinants of compassion fatigue symptoms(P＜0.05).The path analysis demonstrated a good fit with the specified indicators.Psychological capital exhibited a direct mediating effect on compassion fatigue symptoms(β=-0.15,P＜0.05).Furthermore,professional identity(β=1.46,P＜0.001;β=-0.38,P＜0.001)and social support(β=0.14,P＜0.001;β=-0.99,P＜0.001)served as mediators in the relationship between psychological capital and compassion fatigue symptoms.Conclusion The compassion fatigue symptoms among orthopedic nurses are relatively severe.It is imperative for nursing managers to address associated factors of compassion fatigue symptoms among orthopedic nurses and implement effective preventive strategies to mitigate its level.

Objective:To investigate the effects of lactulose and oral rehydration salt powder (Ⅲ) on bowel preparation for colonoscopy and their impact on the detection rate of lesions.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted with 120 patients who underwent colonoscopy at The Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from January 2023 to April 2024. The patients were randomly divided into a control group and an experimental group, with 60 patients in each group. The control group received Hengkang Zhengqing and simethicone for bowel preparation, while the experimental group received lactulose, oral rehydration salt powder (Ⅲ), and simethicone for bowel preparation. The Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (referred to as the Boston scale) was used to assess bowel cleanliness, the Bubble scale was used to assess the presence of gas in the bowel, and a self-designed questionnaire was used to evaluate patient satisfaction after colonoscopy. The Boston scale scores, Bubble scale scores, patient satisfaction, lesion detection rates, and the incidence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups. Results:The total score on the Boston scale in the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group [(7.23 ± 1.30) vs. (5.44 ± 1.17), t = 7.92, P < 0.001]. The Bubble scale score in the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group [(2.60 ± 0.15) vs. (2.21 ± 0.10), t = 16.75, P < 0.001]. The rates of acceptable taste and tolerance in the experimental group were 96.6% (58/60) and 95.0% (57/60), respectively, both of which were higher than those in the control group at 86.6% (52/60) and 81.6% (49/60) ( χ2 = 3.92, 5.17, P = 0.048, 0.023). The detection rate of colonic polyps in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group [31.67% (19/60) vs. 15.00% (9/60), χ2 = 4.65, P = 0.031]. The incidence of adverse reactions in the experimental group was significantly lower than that in the control group [3.33% (2/60) vs. 13.33% (8/60), χ2 = 3.92, P = 0.048]. The patient satisfaction rate after examination in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group [96.67% (58/60) vs. 85.00% (52/60), χ2 = 4.90, P = 0.027]. Conclusions:The intestinal preparation for colonoscopy using the lactulose and oral rehydration salt powder (Ⅲ) regimen can significantly improve the quality of bowel preparation and the detection rate of lesions. Additionally, it offers better taste, higher patient tolerance, and greater satisfaction, along with fewer adverse reactions compared with the Hengkang Zhengqing and simethicone regimen.
