Abstract
As a systematic psychological intervention method, bibliotherapy possesses advantages such as low cost, high accessibility, and significant efficacy. The paper systematically reviews the recent research progress of bibliotherapy in the field of adolescent mental health intervention including covering preventive, therapeutic, developmental, personalized, and comprehensive approaches. It discusses the effectiveness and key influencing factors of these interventions. Findings indicate that bibliotherapy can effectively reduce the risk of depressive and anxiety symptoms in adolescents, and improve their emotional regulation skills and social adaptability. Different types of interventions demonstrate varied effects across different populations. Personalized and comprehensive intervention models can further enhance the outcomes, to provide theoretical basis and practical guidance for the development of localized bibliotherapy intervention programs.

AIM: To compare the effectiveness of foldable capsular body(FCB)with traditional scleral buckling(SB)in the treatment of experimental retinal detachment animal models.METHODS: After successfully establishing rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD)animal models, 24 New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into three groups(RRD models group, SB group, and FCB group), with 8 rabbits in each group. The FCB and SB groups underwent SB and FCB surgeries for the RRD animal models, while the RRD models group only consists of RRD models without any surgical intervention during the follow-up period. The follow-up duration was 3 mo. Wide-field neonatal fundus imaging system and ophthalmic B-ultrasound were used to assess the fundus conditions before and after surgery. The Icare® TONOVET Plus tonometer was utilized to evaluate intraocular pressure changes before and after surgery. The Eaton and Draize scoring systems were selected to monitor postoperative inflammatory reactions.RESULTS: The retinal reattachment rates in the FCB and SB groups were 87.5% and 75.0%, respectively, with no statistically significant difference between the groups(P>0.05). The intraocular pressure in both the FCB and SB groups increased postoperatively compared to preoperative levels(P<0.01), and there were no significant differences in intraocular pressure at any time points during the follow-up period between the groups(P>0.05). The intraocular pressure in the RRD models group remained at a low level throughout the follow-up period. The average surgical time for the FCB group was 16.87±2.29 min, which was shorter than 46.25±4.74 min in the SB group(t=-15.166, P<0.001). According to the Eaton and Draize scoring systems, the FCB group had lower grades of conjunctival hyperemia and edema in the early postoperative period compared to the SB group, indicating milder inflammatory reactions(P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Both FCB and SB are effective in treating experimental RRD. Compared to SB, FCB is simpler to operate, and also has a shorter surgical time and milder postoperative inflammatory reactions.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of dengue fever in Shenzhen City in 2024, so as to provide insights into formulation of the preventive and control measures for dengue fever. Methods The epidemiological data of dengue cases reported in Shenzhen City in 2024 were extracted from the China Disease Prevention and Control Information System and field epidemiological survey data of dengue fever in Shenzhen City, and the temporal, regional and population distributions of dengue fever cases, source of acquire dengue virus infections, disease diagnosis and treatment and outbreaks were analyzed. The dengue virus nucleic acid was tested and the serotypes of dengue virus were characterized using real-time quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) assay, and the dengue virus gene was sequenced using next-generation sequencing (NGS). In addition, the surveillance on the density of Aedes albopictus was performed using Breteau index (BI) and mosquito oviposition index (MOI). Results A total of 1 735 dengue fever cases were reported in Shenzhen City in 2024, including 952 local cases and 783 imported cases. Most imported dengue fever cases acquired infections from eight cities of Foshan, Guangzhou, Zhongshan, Jiangmen, Dongguan, Zhaoqing, Huizhou, and Zhuhai in the Pearl River Delta region (664 cases, 84.8% of total imported cases) into Baoan, Longgang, and Nanshan districts. The epidemic exhibited an early onset and rapid progression, peaking during the period between September and November (1 632 cases, 94.1% of total cases), and dengue fever cases were distributed across 73 subdistricts in 10 districts, with most cases reported in densely populated central and western regions. The dengue fever cases had a male-to-female ratio of 1.9∶1.0, and a median age of 37 (21) years, with a higher median age among local cases than among imported cases [40 (20) years vs. 33(15) years; Z = -10.30, P < 0.05]. Housework, unemployment, workers, and business service were predominant occupations (1 405 cases, 81.0% of total cases), and there was a significant difference in the constituent ratio of occupations between local and imported cases (χ2 = 92.30, P < 0.05). Among the 1 735 dengue fever cases, the median duration from onset to definitive diagnosis was 3.3 (2.9) days, and 1 686 cases (97.2%) were identified in healthcare facilities, with a low rate of hospitalization and isolation seen in 1 701 inpatients with available epidemiological data (485 cases, 28.5% of total inpatients). A total of 29 outbreaks of dengue fever occurred in Shenzhen City across 2024, which primarily in construction sites (27 outbreaks, 93.1% of total). Dengue virus type I was the dominant serotype causing dengue fever in Shenzhen City in 2024. Sequencing showed that the genomes of dengue virus from multiple dengue fever cases in Shenzhen City shared a high sequence homology with those from cities neighboring Shenzhen City, and there might be intra-city transmission of dengue virus among multiple construction sites in Shenzhen City. The Aedes albopictus density was significantly higher in Shenzhen City in 2024 than in 2023, peaking from May to September. The annual MOI values ranged from 0.9 to 14.0, and the BI values ranged from 0.6 to 6.0. Conclusions The overall epidemic of dengue fever was severe in Shenzhen City in 2024, which was greatly affected by case importation from neighboring cities, construction sites-centered local transmission, and the effectives of routine mosquito vector control was not satisfactory. Integrated dengue fever control measures should be implemented, focusing on regional joint prevention and control mechanisms, capacity building for mosquito vector control, addressing challenges in epidemic containment at construction sites, and strengthening case detection and management systems.

Objective:To explore the differences in dynamic spontaneous brain activity in individuals with subjective cognitive decline (SCD) and its correlation with spatial navigation ability in SCD subjects.Methods:A total of 72 SCD subjects(SCD group) and 67 normal controls (NC group) matched for age, gender and education level were recruited from September 2020 to February 2023 at the Affiliated Drum Tower Hospital, Medical School of Nanjing University. All participants underwent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) examinations, spatial navigation tests and cognitive function assessments. The rs-fMRI time series were segmented using a sliding time window method, and statistical analyses were carried out using SPSS 26.0 software to compare the differences in the dynamic amplitude of low frequency fluctuation (dALFF) between the two groups. Correlation analysis was conducted between dALFF values in different brain regions and scale scores and spatial navigation tests.Results:Compared with the NC group, the dALFF variability in the right precuneus(0.119±0.021, 0.130±0.031) and left cuneus(0.143±0.034, 0.156±0.032) in SCD group decreased ( t=-3.41, -3.12, P<0.05, FDR corrected), and the dALFF variability in the right middle occipital gyrus(0.146±0.023, 0.137±0.020) and right angular gyrus(0.148±0.025, 0.139±0.026) increased ( t=4.51, 3.36, both P<0.05, FDR corrected). The temporal variability of dALFF in the right precuneus in SCD group was negatively correlated with egocentric spatial navigation ( r=-0.341, P=0.025), delayed allocentric spatial navigation ( r=-0.286, P=0.035) and memory function ( r=-0.332, P=0.009). The temporal variability of dALFF in the left middle occipital gyrus was positively correlated with language function ( r=0.339, P=0.015) and visuospatial function ( r=0.343, P=0.008) in SCD group. Conclusions:The temporal variability of dALFF in the right precuneus and the left middle occipital gyrus may be the neurobiological basis of cognitive decline and spatial navigation impairment in SCD subjects, and it can be used as a potential imaging marker for early identification of SCD patients.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of triamcinolone acetonide-saline submucosal injection for prevention of esophageal stricture after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for extensive superficial esophageal neoplasms.Methods:A total of 75 patients who underwent ESD for superficial esophageal neoplasms involving larger than 2/3 of the esophageal circumference at the Department of Gastroenterology, Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital from January 2018 to December 2020 were enrolled. Patients were randomly assigned to triamcinolone acetonide-saline submucosal injection group (group A, n=25), triamcinolone acetonide injections immediately after ESD group (group B, n=25) and the control group undergoing only ESD (group C, n=25). Serial gastroscopy was performed to assess wound healing and esophageal stricture. Endoscopic balloon dilatation (EBD) was performed when patients experienced esophageal stricture. The completion of ESD, time of operation, the amount of triamcinolone acetonide, the incidences of esophageal stricture and the time of EBD treatment of the three groups were compared. Results:All ESD procedures were successfully performed without complications such as intraoperative perforation, massive bleeding or postoperative delayed perforation. The operation time of group A, B and C were 72.87±12.99 min, 94.15±14.22 min and 74.08±11.86 min, respectively, with significant difference ( F=20.925, P<0.001). In pairwise comparison the above indicator in group A and group C was significantly shorter than that of group B (LSD- t=5.759, P<0.001; LSD- t=5.432, P<0.001), but there was no difference between group A and group C (LSD- t=0.327, P=0.745). There was no significant difference in the amount of triamcinolone acetonide between group A and group B (125±15 mg VS 133±19 mg, t=1.673, P=0.101). The rates of wound healing under endoscopy after 1 month of group A, B and C were 76% (19/25), 84% (21/25), and 76% (19/25), respectively, with no significant difference ( χ2=0.636, P=0.728). The esophageal stricture rates were 52% (13/25) in both group A and B, and 84% (21/25) in group C, with significant difference among the three groups ( χ2=7.295, P=0.026), and group A and B showed a significantly lower stricture rate than that of group C ( P=0.015; P=0.015). The median time of EBD treatment of group A, B and C were 4 (range 0 to 9), 5 (range 0 to 13) and 9 (range 0 to 16), respectively, with significant difference ( H=17.58, P<0.001). In pairwise comparison the above indicator in group A and B was significantly less than that of group C ( H=23.96, P<0.001; H=19.00, P=0.002), but there was no significant difference between group A and group B ( H=4.96, P=0.407). Esophageal stricture was observed in all patients with circumferential mucosa resected in the three groups. But the times of EBD treatment were 6.90±1.10 in group A, 10.13±2.42 in group B and 15.29±0.76 in group C with significant difference ( F=57.754, P<0.001). In pairwise comparison the above indicator in group A was less than that in group B (LSD- t=4.294, P<0.001) and this indicator in group B was less than that in group C (LSD- t=6.294, P<0.001). Median EBD times in patients with non-circumferential mucosal defects in the three groups were 0 (range 0 to 9), 0 (range 0 to 6) and 8 (range 0 to10), respectively, with significant difference ( H=19.72, P<0.001). In pairwise comparison, the EBD time in group A and B was less than that in group C ( H=17.93, P<0.001; H=16.62, P<0.001), but there was no statistical difference between group A and B ( H=1.31, P=0.779). Conclusion:Triamcinolone acetonide-saline submucosal injection ESD can safely and effectively prevent esophageal stricture after ESD for large-area superficial esophageal neoplasms, reduce the operation time and time of EBD treatment in patients with circumferential mucosa defect compared with local injections of triamcinolone acetonide after ESD.
9.The mechanisms and salvage treatment strategies underlying positive relapse following CD19 CAR-T cell therapy in B-acute lymphoblastic leukemia
Chinese Journal of Hematology 2024;45(10):970-976
Approximately 50% of patients suffering from relapsed/refractory B-acute lymphoblastic leukemia (R/R B-ALL), experience relapse within one year, with around 60% of these relapses being antigen-positive, despite the transformative impact of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy. The mechanisms underlying relapse are primarily associated with tumor heterogeneity, CAR-T cell dysfunction, subopimal in vivo expansion and persistence, and an inhibitory immune microenvironment. This review aims to investigate salvage strategies designed to enhance outcomes for patients undergoing relapse or disease progression following the CAR-T cell therapy. These strategies include a second CAR-T cell infusion that targets either the same antigen or an alternative target, the administration of immune checkpoint inhibitors, and the utilization of novel targeted therapies including monoclonal antibodies, antibody-conjugated drugs and small molecule compounds aimed at mitigating CD19-positive relapse or overcoming CAR-T cell resistance. Nevertheless, achieving improved long-term survival for these patients continues be challenging.
