Objective: To analyze the current status and influencing factors of psychological crisis among college students, so as to provide a scientific basis for the formulation of psychological crisis intervention plans in colleges and universities. Methods: From September to December 2024, 645 college students from a medical undergraduate university in Heilongjiang Province were selected with a convenience sampling method. A convergent mixed analysis design was used. Quantitative analysis was conducted using College Students Psychological Crisis Screening Scale, Emotion Regulation Questionnaire, Short-Egna Minnen av Barndoms Uppfostran and Perceived School Climate Scale. Binary Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the related factors of psychological crisis among college students. Qualitative research was conducted on 15 college students with psychological crisis identified in the quantitative analysis by a purposive sampling method. The interview data were organized and analyzed using the thematic framework analysis method. Results: Among the surveyed college students, 92 (14.3%) had psychological crisis. Binary Logistic regression analysis results showed that positive parenting style ( OR=0.97,95%CI =0.95-0.99), negative parenting style ( OR=1.01,95%CI =1.00-1.02), cognitive reappraisal ( OR=0.88, 95%CI =0.83-0.92), expressive suppression ( OR=1.08, 95%CI =1.02-1.15), and perceived campus atmosphere ( OR=0.97, 95%CI =0.95-0.98) were all related factors of psychological crisis among college students ( P <0.05). The qualitative analysis results showed that there were three themes for the influencing factors of college students psychological crisis, including differential impact of emotion regulation strategies on psychological state, shaping of psychological state of college students by family and bidirectional effect of perceived campus atmosphere on psychological state. Mixed analysis results showed that the influencing factors of college students psychological crisis were consistent in terms of emotion regulation strategies, and were expansive in terms of parenting style and perceived campus atmosphere. Conclusion Schools and mental health service departments can reduce the risk of psychological crisis by optimizing cognitive reappraisal and reducing expressive suppression, improve the level of psychological crisis by strengthening positive family interaction and blocking negative parenting style, and maintain the mental health level of college students by building a supportive campus environment and alleviating high pressure.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the association of HOTAIR gene rs920778 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) with breast cancer susceptibility and response to HER2-targeted therapy in a Chinese population. METHODS: TaqMan probe-based real-time quantitative PCR was used for genotyping of the rs920778 locus (chr12:54,376,218) in peripheral blood genomic DNA from 287 breast cancer patients and 260 healthy individuals from northern Anhui Province. The genotype (GG, GT and TT) and allele (G/T) distribution frequencies were compared between the two groups to evaluate their association with breast cancer risk. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to assess the relationship between SNP at this locus and aggressive clinicopathological features (including tumor size, lymph node metastasis, ER/PR/HER2 status, and molecular subtypes) of breast cancer. For the HER2-positive subgroup, the association between rs920778 genotype and responses to dual-targeted therapy (trastuzumab [6 mg/kg q3w]+pertuzumab [420 mg q3w] + docetaxel [75 mg/m²]) was analyzed. The primary endpoints included pathological complete response rate (pCR), objective response rate (ORR), and progression-free survival (PFS). RESULTS: The TT genotype of rs920778 was associated with a significantly increased breast cancer susceptibility (OR=1.54, 95% CI: 1.09-2.19; P=0.017), an advanced tumor stage (P<0.001), lymph node metastasis (P<0.001), and the triple-negative subtype (P<0.001). In HER2-positive patients, TT genotype carriers had a markedly reduced objective response rate to dual HER2-targeted therapy (33.3% vs 89.3%, P=0.001) and a lower pathological complete response rate after neoadjuvant therapy (P=0.018). CONCLUSIONS The TT genotype of HOTAIR rs920778 serves as an independent risk factor for breast cancer susceptibility and aggressive progression in Chinese population and may predict the resistance to HER2-targeted therapies, suggesting its potential as a prognostic biomarker for precision oncology.

Although cisplatin is a widely used chemotherapeutic agent, it is severely toxic and causes irreversible hearing loss, restricting its application in clinical settings. This study aimed to determine the molecular mechanism underlying cisplatin-induced ototoxicity. Here, we established in vitro and in vivo ototoxicity models of cisplatin-induced hair cell loss, and our results showed that reducing STING levels decreased inflammatory factor expression and hair cell death. In addition, we found that cisplatin-induced mitochondrial dysfunction was accompanied by cytosolic DNA, which may act as a critical linker between the cyclic GMP-AMP synthesis-stimulator of interferon genes (cGAS-STING) pathway and the pathogenesis of cisplatin-induced hearing loss. H-151, a specific inhibitor of STING, reduced hair cell damage and ameliorated the hearing loss caused by cisplatin in vivo. This study underscores the role of cGAS-STING in cisplatin ototoxicity and presents H-151 as a promising therapeutic for hearing loss.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Organoid models are used to study kidney physiology, such as the assessment of nephrotoxicity and underlying disease processes. Personalized human pluripotent stem cell-derived kidney organoids are ideal models for compound toxicity studies, but there is a need to accelerate basic and translational research in the field. Here, we developed an automated continuous imaging setup with the "read-on-ski" law of control to maximize temporal resolution with minimum culture plate vibration. High-accuracy performance was achieved: organoid screening and imaging were performed at a spatial resolution of 1.1 μm for the entire multi-well plate under 3 min. We used the in-house developed multi-well spinning device and cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity model to evaluate the toxicity in kidney organoids using this system. The acquired images were processed via machine learning-based classification and segmentation algorithms, and the toxicity in kidney organoids was determined with 95% accuracy. The results obtained by the automated "read-on-ski" imaging device, combined with label-free and non-invasive algorithms for detection, were verified using conventional biological procedures. Taking advantage of the close-to-in vivo-kidney organoid model, this new development opens the door for further application of scaled-up screening using organoids in basic research and drug discovery.

Objective:To summarize the experience of 15 cases of balloon endovascular occlusion assisted aortic replacement.Methods:15 patients who needed reoperation after aortic surgery underwent endovascular balloon occlusion assisted aortic replacement by DSA guidance in the hybrid OR. Main inclusion criteria: The target vessel to be blocked cannot be directly blocked. Based on the last CTA before the operation, the diameter of the target vessel was measured, and the appropriate diameter balloon and the appropriate diameter balloon and the amount of contrast agent were selected. The vascular approach was selected according to the CTA.During the operation, the balloon was filled and fixed well, the distal invasive blood pressure waveform showed advection, and the pressure close to hydrostatic pressure as the complete blocking standard.Results:All 15 cases of balloon endovascular occlusion assisted aortic surgery were successful. After the operation, 14 target vessels normally without damage, and there was no vascular complication. One case after surgical three-branch stent surgery underwent the second thoracoabdominal aortic replacement operation. After the stent was blocked by the balloon, the new tissue in the stent fell off, and the celiac trunk and superior mesenteric artery were embolized for reoperation.Conclusion:Balloon endovascular occlusion technology expands the indications of aortic surgery and simplifies the operation, that is a safe and effective occlusion method. Whether the target vessel is suitable for balloon occlusion should be judged before the operation to avoid related complications.

Objective To investigate the safety and short-term outcomes of laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection with pelvic peritoneum closure (LARP-PPC) for low rectal cancer.Methods The retrospective cohort study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 132 patients with low rectal cancer who were admitted to Ruijin Hospital of Shanghai JiaoTong University School of Medicine from January 2014 to December 2017 were collected.There were 81 males and 51 females,aged from 45 to 83 years,with an average age of 62 years.Among the 132 patients,60 undergoing LARP-PPC were allocated into LARP-PPC group,and 72 patients undergoing conventional LARP were allocated into LARP group.All the patients received standardized preoperative and postoperative treatments.Observation indicators:(1) surgical and postoperative conditions;(2) postoperative pathological examination;(3) postoperative complications.The measurement data with normal distribution were expressed as Mean±SD,and the t test was used for comparison between groups.The measurement data with skewed distribution were expressed as M (range),and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison between groups.The count data were expressed as absolute numbers,and the chi-square test or the Fisher exact probability was used for comparison between groups.Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of ordinal data between groups.Results (1) Surgery and postoperative conditions:all the patients in the two groups underwent successful surgery without conversion to open surgery.The operation time,volume of intraoperative blood loss,time to first flatus,and time to first liquid intake of the LARP-PPC group were (163±45) minutes,168 mL(range,85-280 mL),2 days(range,1-5 days),3 days(range,2-6 days),versus (155±39) minutes,160 mL(range,100-305 mL),3 days(range,1-7 days),4 days(range,2-7 days) of the LARP group;there was no differencebetween the two group (t =1.113,Z =-1.623,-1.468,-0.321,P＞0.05).The duration of postoperative hospital stay in the LARP-PPC group and the LARP group were 16 days (range,11-21 days) and 19 days (14-24 days),respectively,with a significant difference between the two groups (Z =-5.888,P＜0.05)].In the LARP-PPC group,time of PPC was (13± 3) minutes.(2) Postoperative pathological examination:the length of specimen,the number of lymph node dissection,tumor diameter,cases with high-,middle-,and low-differentiated tumor in the LARP-PPC group was (18±4)cm,16±t5,(3.7±1.4)cm,10,34,16 in the LARP-PPC group,and (18±4)cm,16±5,(3.9±1.5) cm,13,41,18 in the LARP group,showing no significant difference between the two groups (t =0.779,0.390,0.703,Z=-0.267,P＞0.05).(3) Postoperative complications:cases with perineal wound infection,delayed perineal wound healing,intestinal obstruction,and perineal hernia were 2,1,1,0 in the LARP-PPC group,and 12,10,8,6 in the LARP group,showing significant differences between the two groups (x2 =6.137,6.400,P＜0.05).There were 2 and 4 patients with urinary tract infection in the LARP-PPC group and the LARP group,respectively,showing no significant difference between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion LARP-PPC is safe and feasible for the treatment of low rectal cancer,which can significantly reduce postoperative perineal-related complications and consequently shorten postoperative hospital stay.

Objective: To probe into the mechanism and interventional effects of silybin-phospholipid complex on amiodarone-induced steatosis in mice. Methods: Eight-week-old male C57BL/6 mice were divided into three groups (5 mice in each group): a control group (WT) with normal diet, a model group with amiodarone 150mg/kg/d by oral gavage (AM), and an intervention group on amiodarone 150mg/kg/d combined with silybin-phospholipid complex(AM+SILIPHOS. All mice were fed their assigned diet for one week. Then, one week later, serum alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, triglyceride, total cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein were detected of each group. A liver pathological change was observed by oil red O and H&E staining. Ultrastructural pathological changes of hepatocytes were observed to evaluate the intervention effect by transmission electron microscopy. RT-q PCR was used to detect the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha and its regulated lipid metabolism genes CPTI, CPTII, Acot1, Acot2, ACOX, Cyp4a10 and Cyp4a14 in liver tissues. Intra-group comparison was done by paired t-test. One-way ANOVA was used for comparison between groups and semi-quantitative data were tested using Mann-Whitney U test. Results: Oil Red O and H&E staining results of liver tissue in the intervention group showed that intrahepatic steatosis was significantly reduced when compared to model group. Transmission electron microscopy showed that the model group had pyknotic nuclei, mitochondrial swelling, structural damage, and lysosomal degradation whereas the intervention group had hepatic nucleus without pyknosis, reduced mitochondrial swelling and slight structural damage than that of model group. RT-q PCR results showed that the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha, CPTI, CPTII, Acot1, Acot2, ACOX, Cyp4a10 and Cyp4a14 were increased in the model group but the expression of CPTI, Cyp4a14, Acot1 and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha were decreased in the intervention group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Silybin-phospholipid complex can alleviate amiodarone-induced steatosis, and its mechanism may play a role in protecting mitochondrial function and regulating fatty acid metabolism. Thus, silybin-phospholipid complex has potential intervention effect on amiodarone-induced fatty liver.

At present,approximately 20% of patients with clinically diagnosed early non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) are inoperable for their own reasons.Stereotactic radiotherapy(SRT)has the advantages of short treatment time,mild treatment-relat-ed injury and high local control rate. Currently,it has been used internationally as a first -line treatment for early incapacity of NSCLC.SRT has also achieved encouraging therapeutic effects in the treatment of early-stage NSCLC,but there are also some prob-lems to be solved urgently.This article aims to summarize the dosimetry,clinical indications and radiotherapy injury of SRT in the treatment of early-stage NSCLC.
