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.

Objective: To investigate the association between metabolic dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and bone mineral density among children and adolescents, so as to provide evidence for the early prevention and intervention of bone health in this population. Methods: In September 2022, a method combining convenience sampling with cluster sampling was used to select 5 089 children and adolescents aged 6-18 years in 9 schools from kindergarten to senior high school in Tongzhou District, Beijing, for physical measurements, ultrasound measurements, blood biochemical index testing, and questionnaire surveys. Participants were categorized into three groups: the normal control group ( n =1 515), the metabolic abnormality group (MA, n = 3 007 ), and the MASLD group ( n =567). Multivariable linear regression model was applied to examine the association between MASLD and bone speed of sound (SOS), while multivariable Logistic regression model was used to assess the association between MASLD and low bone mineral density. Subgroup analysis was conducted by sex and age groups. Results: Compared with the normal control group, the MASLD group showed significantly lower SOS values ( β =-6.31, 95% CI =-9.63 to -2.99), lower SOS Z scores ( β = -0.21, 95% CI =-0.32 to -0.10), and higher susceptibility to low bone mineral density( OR =1.56, 95% CI =1.25-1.96)（all P <0.05）. No significant differences in SOS or odds of low bone density were observed between the MA and normal control groups (all P > 0.05). In sex stratified analyses, males with MASLD exhibited significantly lower SOS Z scores ( β =-0.35, 95% CI =-0.49 to -0.20 , P <0.05), whereas no significant difference was observed in females with MASLD ( β =-0.03, 95% CI =-0.21-0.15; P >0.05). When hepatic steatosis grade (0, 1, 2, and 3) was treated as a continuous variable, each one grade increase was associated with a 31% higher odds of low bone mineral density ( OR =1.31, 95% CI =1.13 to 1.53, P <0.05). Conclusions MASLD is significantly associated with low bone mineral density among children and adolescents, with a stronger association in males. Moreover, children and adolescents with hepatic steatosis have a higher risk of impaired bone health compared with those with metabolic abnormalities alone.

OBJECTIVE: The self-defined multidisciplinary (endocrinology, vascular surgery, and orthopedics) scoring system (EMO scoring system for short) was designed. The feasibility of the EMO scoring system to guide the proximal tibial transverse transport (TTT) for diabetic foot wounds was preliminarily explored. METHODS: Based on the current commonly used clinical criteria for diabetic foot judgment, expert consensus, guidelines, and related research progress in the treatment of diabetic foot wounds, combined with clinical experience, a set of EMO scoring systems including endocrinology, vascular surgery, and orthopedics was formulated. The criteria for selecting conservative treatment, TTT after baseline improvement, and TTT based on scoring results was proposed. A total of 56 patients with diabetic foot wounds who were admitted between September 2017 and July 2022 and met the selection criteria was taken as the study subjects. Among them, 28 patients were treated with TTT and 28 patients were treated conservatively. The patients were graded according to the EMO scoring system, the corresponding treatment methods were selected, and the actual treatment methods and results of the patients were compared. RESULTS: The EMO scoring system was formed through literature retrieval and clinical experiences. The system included three criteria, namely endocrinology (E), macrovascular disease (M), and orthopedics (O), which were divided into multiple subtypes according to the relevant evaluation items, and finally the diabetic foot wound was divided into 8 types, which correspondingly selected TTT, TTT after baseline improvement, and conservative treatment. All 56 patients were followed up 12 months after treatment. Among them, the wound healing rate of the TTT group was 85.71% (24/28), which was higher than that of the conservative treatment group [53.57% (15/28)]. At 12 week after treatment, CT angiography showed that there were more small blood vessels in the wound and ipsilateral limb in TTT group than in the conservative treatment group. Based on the EMO scoring system, 14 of the 56 patients needed conservative treatment, 29 patients needed TTT, and 13 patients needed TTT after baseline improvement. Compared with the clinical data of the patients, the wound healing rate of the patients judged to be TTT was 75.86% (22/29), of which 21 cases were actually treated with TTT, and the healing rate was 90.48%; 8 patients were treated conservatively, and the healing rate was 37.50%. The wound healing rate of the patients judged to be conservative treatment was 92.86% (13/14), of which 1 case was actually treated with TTT, and the healing rate was 100%; 13 cases were treated conservatively, and the healing rate was 92.31%; 1 case experienced minor amputation. The wound healing rate of the patients judged to TTT after baseline improvement was only 30.77% (4/13), of which 6 cases were actually treated with TTT, and the healing rate was 66.67%; 7 cases were treated conservatively, and the healing rate was 0. CONCLUSION EMO scoring system can comprehensively evaluate the diabetic foot wounds, and make personalized judgment on whether TTT treatment is feasible, so as to improve the level of diabetic foot wound treatment and the prognosis of patients.

Objective This study aimed to investigate the antimicrobial resistance profiles of bacterial strains isolated from pediatric intensive care units(PICU)in China for better antimicrobial therapy.Methods Clinical isolates were collected from 17 institutions,including tertiary care children's hospitals and pediatric department of tertiary general hospitals in China from January 1,2020 to December 31,2022.Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was carried out according to a unified protocol using Kirby-Bauer method or automated systems.Results were interpreted according to the breakpoints released by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)in 2020.Results A total of 10 688 isolates were collected,including gram-positive organisms(39.2％)and gram-negative organisms(60.8％).The top three organisms were S.aureus(13.6％,1 453/10 688),A.baumannii(10.0％,1 067/10 688),and coagulase-negative Staphylococcus(9.9％,1 058/10 688).Multi-drug resistant organisms(MDROs)were very common in children.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA),carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales(CRE),carbapenem-resistant E.coli,carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae(CRKP),carbapenem-resistant A.baumannii(CRAB),and carbapenem-resistant P.aeruginosa(CRPA)was 41.1％,19.4％,8.8％,30.9％,67.4％,and 28.8％,respectively.Overall,more than 50％of Enterobacteriales isolates were resistant to cephalosporins,while nearly 25％of Enterobacteriales isolates were resistant to carbapenems.MDROs were highly resistant to commonly used antibiotics.More than 80％of CRE and CRAB strains were resistant to all beta-lactam antibiotics.CRE and CRAB showed low resistance rates to tigecycline and polymyxin.CRPA showed lower resistance rates to piperacillin,beta-lactamase inhibitor combinations than the resistance rates to third and fourth generation cephalosporins.All of the Staphylococcus and Enterococcus isolates were susceptible to vancomycin and tigecycline.None of PRSP strains isolated from meningitis and nonmeningitis samples were resistant to rifampicin,vancomycin,or linezolid.The prevalence of β-lactamase-negative ampicillin-resistant(BLNAR)strains was 43.3％in Haemophilus influenzae.Conclusions MDROs were prevalent in PICU.It is necessary to establish an effective multidisciplinary team(MDT)to control the antimicrobial resistance.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness of generative artificial intelligence (GAI) -empowered interprofessional collaborative learning model in nursing psychology practical teaching for undergraduate nursing students.Methods:From November to December 2024, 109 second-year nursing students from the Xiangya School of Nursing, Central South University were selected as research subjects using convenience sampling. Two classes were randomly divided into an experimental group (55 students) and a control group (54 students) using a random draw method. Control group received a traditional teaching model based primarily on case discussion and scenario simulation teaching, while experimental group used the GAI-empowered interprofessional collaborative learning model on the basis of control group. The teaching effectiveness was evaluated using the Psychological Nursing Practice Competency Assessment Scale, Caring Ability Inventory (CAI), Readiness for Interprofessional Learning Scale (RIPLS), and Satisfaction Survey Questionnaire.Results:After teaching, experimental group's practical course assessment scores, CAI total scores, and scores in each dimension were all higher than those of control group, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.01). The RIPLS score of nursing students in experimental group after teaching was higher than that before teaching, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). 90.9% of nursing students supported the introduction of GAI into the classroom, and 90.9% of nursing students recognized the auxiliary role of GAI in achieving learning objectives, and the teaching satisfaction was 96.4%. Conclusions:This study validates the effectiveness of GAI-empowered interprofessional collaborative learning model in nursing psychology practical teaching for undergraduate nursing students, providing new ideas for nursing education reform.

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:To compare the dosimetric parameters under different incremental modes between intensity-modulated radiation therapy(IMRT)and volume rotation intensity-modulated therapy(VMAT)for the target area of large volume brain metastases(BMs),and to explore the better way of treating BMs based on hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy(HSRT)of linear accelerator.Methods:A total of 30 BMs patients who underwent IMRT at The 971th Hospital of Navy of the CPLA from 2020 to 2023 were selected.In the treatment planning system(TPS),three types of IMRT plans and VMAT plans were designed,which included uniformity plan(Planuniformity)of target area dose,uniform increased plan(Planuniform increased-dose)and incremental plan(Planincremental)within target area.In the inside of the target area,the target area of high dose(GTVh)was set,and Planuniform increased-dose and Planincremental were designed to aim at GTVh.The differences of the doses of three types of treatment plans included Planuniformity,Planuniform increased-dose and Planincremental,which were respectively designed by using IMRT and VMAT,were analyzed.The mean dose(Dmean)of the target area,the 50%and 2%exposed doses(D50%and D2%)of the target area were observed and compared.The conformity index(CI),homogeneity index(HI),gradient index(GI),and the volume percentage(V10 Gy-V40 Gy)that normal brain tissue received 10 Gy-40 Gy also were observed and compared.Results:Compared with Planuniformity of IMRT,the Dmean of GTV of Planuniform increased-dose and Planincremental of IMRT increased by 10.13%and 17.9%,with statistically significant differences(t=13.680,12.771,P＜0.05).D50%increased by 8.9%and 10.8%,with statistically significant differences(t=15.190,9.929,P＜0.05).D2%increased by 15.2%and 46.4%,with statistically significant differences(t=52.320,8.746,P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in normal brain tissue V10 Gy-V40 Gy among Planuniformity,Planuniform increased-dose and Planincremental of IMRT(P＞0.05).Compared with Planuniformity of VMAT,the Dmean of GTV of Planuniform increased-dose and Planincremental of VMAT increased by 10.53%and 21.23%,with statistically significant differences(t=18.641,15.461,P＜0.05),and D50%increased by 9.1%and 13.4%,with statistically significant differences(t=11.382,10.952,P＜0.05),and D2%increased by 16.4%and 48.8%,with statistically significant differences(t=56.471,8.685,P＜0.05),respectively.There were no statistically significant differences in normal brain tissue V10 Gy-V40 Gy among Planuniformity,Planuniform increased-dose and Planincremental of VMAT(P＞0.05).The normal brain tissue V20 Gy,V30 Gy and V40 Gy of Planuniform increased-dose and Planincremental of IMRT were respectively less than those of VMAT,and the differences of them between IMRT and VMAT were significant(tPlan uniform increased-dose=2.112,2.215,2.444,tPlan incremental=2.323,2.939,3.145,P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant difference in D2%,Dmean,and D50%between IMRT and VMAT(P＞0.05).Conclusion:On the premise of ensuring the safety of normal brain tissue at the edge of the target area,the synchronously increasing of the central dose of the target area will not significantly increase the dose for normal brain tissue.Both IMRT and VMAT can meet the requirements of increment in the inside of the target area,and VMAT has slightly better increment and higher efficiency within target area.The incremental of VMAT target area is slightly better,which also has better efficiency,while the enhancement effect of the dose of target area of Planincremental is better than that of the Planuniform increased-dose.The Plan incremental of VMAT is more suitable for HSRT treatment for BMs.
