ObjectiveTo investigate somatization symptoms in adolescents during frequent earthquakes in Hefei， and to explore their correlation with earthquake experiences. MethodsA cross-sectional survey was used to select 324 adolescents in Hefei as the survey objects. The self-rating scale of somatization symptoms （SSS） and the fatigue intensity scale （FIS） were used to evaluate the somatization symptoms and fatigue degree of middle school students， and multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the related factors of somatization symptoms and fatigue among middle school students. ResultsA total of 324 adolescents were included， and the overall detection rate of somatization symptoms was 6.5%， and the detection rate of moderate or above fatigue was 20.1%. The results of regression analysis showed that adolescents who were concerned about the earthquake for a longer time （≥1 h） had a higher risk of somatization symptoms （OR=5.430， 95%CI： 1.547-19.058）， and adolescents who received pre-earthquake training had a lower degree of fatigue （OR=0.535， 95%CI： 0.292-0.981） （P<0.05）. ConclusionDuring the frequent earthquakes， adolescents have more somatization symptoms and fatigue. Therefore， it is crucial to enhance health education， reduce the emphasis on event-related reports， and implement earthquake prevention and disaster reduction training to improve the physical and mental health of adolescents.

Objective To evaluate the effects of Yiqi Huayu Jiedu Decoction combined with chemotherapy on disease-free survival rate and disease-free survival(DFS)of patients with stage Ⅱ and Ⅲ postoperative gastric cancer.Methods Totally 102 patients with stage Ⅱ and Ⅲ postoperative gastric cancer treated by Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine and Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital were selected.The patients were divided into control group(52 cases)and test group(50 cases)with block random method.The control group received conventional postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy for 4-6 cycles.The test group was treated with Chinese materia medica for 6 months on the basis of chemotherapy.Continue follow-up until the patients had recurrence,metastasis or death.DFS was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method,and the average DFS of the two groups was estimated.Log Rank test was used to test the significance of differences in survival distribution between groups.Univariate and multivariate analyses of variables affecting prognosis were conducted using the Cox regression model.Adverse reactions of both groups were monitored.Results The recurrence and metastasis rate of the test group was 12.0%(6/50),while that of the control group was 34.6%(18/52),which was lower in the test group than in the control group(P<0.05).The 1-year and 2-year DFS rates and DFS of the control group were 86.5%,72.2%and 25.8 months respectively,while those of the test group were 95.6%,84.1%and 33.9 months respectively,with statistical significance(P=0.012).Cox-regression analysis suggested:The independent factors influencing the disease-free survival time of patients with gastric cancer were the test group(P=0.022),surgical methods of subtotal gastrectomy(P=0.038)and clinical stages Ⅱ(P=0.040).No adverse reactions related to Chinese materia medica were reported in the two groups.Conclusion Yiqi Huayu Jiedu Decoction combined with chemotherapy can improve the 1-year and 2-year DFS rate,prolong DFS,reduce the recurrence and metastasis rate,and improve the prognosis.

Objective To investigate changes of serum peroxiredoxin 4 level in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM)at the early stage and its diagnostic value for GDM.Methods A total of 372 early pregnant women who visited our hospital from March 2021 to May 2024 were selected as the study subjects.The diagnosis of GDM was determined based on the results of the oral glucose tolerance test(OGTT).Pregnant women were divided into the GDM group(n=89)and the control group(n=283).Clinical data,laboratory indicators and levels of peroxiredoxin 4 were compared between two groups of patients.The correlation between serum peroxiredoxin 4 levels and laboratory indicators was analyzed.Risk factors for the occurrence of GDM and its diagnostic efficacy for GDM were also analyzed.Results The proportion of family history of diabetes,insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR),fasting plasma glucose(FPG),postprandial 1 h glucose(1 hPG),postprandial 2 h glucose(2 hPG),C-peptide and serum peroxidase reductase 4 were higher in the GDM group than those in the control group(P＜0.05),while the pancreatic β-cell function index(HOMA-β)was lower in the GDM group than those in the control group(P＜0.05).The level of serum peroxidase reductase 4 was positively correlated with HOMA-IR,FPG,1 hPG,2 hPG and C-peptide in the GDM group,and which was negatively correlated with HOMA-β(P＜0.05).Multifactorial Logistic regression analysis showed that elevated HOMA-IR,FPG,1 hPG,2 hPG,C-peptide and peroxidase reductase 4 were risk factors for the occurrence of GDM,while elevated HOMA-β was the protective factor for the occurrence of GDM(P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)for peroxidase reductase 4 in diagnosing GDM was 0.912(95%CI:0.871-0.953),with a sensitivity of 79.79%and specificity of 89.36%when the optimal cutoff value was 0.93 U/L.Conclusion The serum level of peroxiredoxin 4 in GDM patients is significantly elevated,showing good diagnostic efficacy for GDM.

The tibial plateau width at the same time points was 71.0(69.1, 73.5)mm, 70.5(69.2, 72.9)mm, and 70.5(69.3, 72.5)mm in the posterior approach group, which were significantly shorter than 73.0(72.3, 74.2)mm, 71.5(71.0, 73.0)mm, and 71.5(71.1, 72.6)mm in the anterior approach group ( P<0.05). At 7 days, 3 months postoperatively, and at the last follow-up, the MPTA values were (87.4±0.7)°, (87.7±0.6)°, and (87.9±0.5)° in the posterior approach group, which were significantly larger than (85.2±2.5)°, (86.0±2.2)°, and (86.3±2.0)° in the anterior approach group ( P<0.01). The PPTA values at the same time points were (9.5±0.7)°, (9.0±0.5)°, and (8.6±0.4)° in the posterior approach group, which were significantly smaller than (11.2±1.0)°, (10.3±0.8)°, and (9.8±0.7)° in the anterior approach group ( P<0.01). There was no significant difference in the preoperative VAS score between the two groups ( P>0.05). At 7 days postoperatively and at the last follow-up, the VAS scores were 4.0(3.0, 5.0)points and 0.5(0.0, 2.0)points in the posterior approach group, which were significantly lower than 5.0(4.0, 5.0)points and 1.0(1.0, 3.0)points in the anterior approach group ( P<0.05). At 7 days, 3 months postoperatively, and at the last follow-up, the KSS scores were 62.5(57.0, 67.5)points, 75.5(72.0, 82.5)points, and 87.0(82.5, 93.5)points in the posterior approach group, which were significantly higher than 61.5(54.5, 63.0)points, 74.0(68.0, 79.0)points, and 85.5(78.0, 88.5)points in the anterior approach group ( P<0.05). The knee flexion range of motion was 90.0(85.0, 95.0)°, 115.0(109.0, 122.0)°, and 126.0(120.0, 130.0)° in the posterior approach group, which were significantly greater than 80.5(75.2, 85.8)°, 110.0(104.0, 115.0)°, and 119.0(113.0, 122.0)° in the anterior approach group ( P<0.05). At the last follow-up, all the fractures were healed in both groups. No statistically significant difference was found in the incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared to the anterior medial and lateral dual incision approach, the posteromedial combined with lateral Frosch approach demonstrates superior advantages in operation duration, reduction quality, pain relief, functional recovery in the treatment of Schatzker type VI tibial plateau fractures, while the incidence of complications is comparable.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors influencing mortality in neonates undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT).Methods:This retrospective study included 34 neonates with a corrected age of≤28 days who received CRRT at the Affiliated Children's Hospital of Xiangya School of Medicine, Central South University, from January 2019 to December 2023. The neonates were divided into a mortality group ( n=16) and a survival group ( n=18) based on whether they died during CRRT. Pre-CRRT blood biochemical indices, general condition, CRRT treatment modes, parameters, and related complications were analyzed using t-tests, Wilcoxon signed-rank tests, and Chi-square tests. Logistic stepwise regression analysis was used to screen for risk factors associated with CRRT mortality. Results:The mortality rate among the 34 neonates was 48.6% (16/34), with a median CRRT age of 17 days (range: 2-33 days). Eleven neonates (32.3%) were preterm, with the youngest gestational age being 27 weeks and the lowest weight before CRRT initiation being 1 700 g. The mortality group had lower urine output 6-12 hours before CRRT initiation and lower critical illness scores compared to the survival group [0.05 (0.02-1.00) ml/(kg·h) vs. 0.50 (0.20-1.05) ml/(kg·h), (64.50±7.10) scores vs. (77.67±3.65) scores, Z or t values were 10.97 and 3.91, respectively]. However, the vasoactive inotropic score (VIS), proportion of coma, and levels of blood potassium, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, blood ammonia, blood lactic acid, and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) were higher in the mortality group compared to the survival group [ (86.88±15.80) scores vs. (55.56±24.31) scores, 11/16 vs. 1/18, (7.02±1.73) mmol/L vs. (5.88±1.53) mmol/L, 274.55(132.50-664.98) U/L vs. 31.10(19.03-110.70) U/L, 688.20 (449.73-3 618.13) U/L vs. 96.65 (44.15-439.00) U/L, 232.75 (70.33-1 310.85) μmol/L vs.77.70 (49.78-919.05) μmol/L, (11.17±3.36) U/L vs. (7.99±2.67) U/L, and (99.57±39.74) s vs. (60.97±31.25) s, with t, χ2, or Z values of－4.39, 14.81,－2.03,－2.72,－11.81,－3.89,－3.06, and－3.17, respectively] (all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis revealed that pre-treatment VIS value ( OR=1.150, 95% CI: 1.035-1.278), and blood ammonia level ( OR=1.004, 95% CI: 1.002-1.009) were independent risk factors for mortality (both P<0.05). Conclusions:Neonatal CRRT mortality is associated with pre-treatment VIS scores and blood ammonia levels. Attention should be paid to a rapid decreases in urine output, the intensity of vasopressor support, and elevated levels of blood ammonia, blood lactic acid, transaminases, and APTT at the initiation of treatment.

Aim To investigate the effect of triptolide(TP)on corticosterone(CORT)-induced depression-like behaviors in mice and explore the antidepressant mechanism of TP based on the CREB/BDNF/TrkB sig-naling pathway.Methods Sixty 8-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into five groups:control group,CORT group,TP groups of low and high doses(10,30 μg·kg-1),and fluoxetine(FLU)group(10 mg·kg-1).Except for the control group,the other groups received subcutaneous injec-tions of CORT for three consecutive weeks to establish the model of depression.During the last two weeks of modeling,normal saline,TP and FLU were adminis-tered via intraperitoneal injection respectively.After the administration,depression-like behaviors in mice were assessed using forced swimming test,tail suspen-sion test,and sucrose preference test.Biochemical methods were used to measure the levels of SOD and MDA in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex(PFC).Cell apoptosis was detected by TUNEL meth-od.Immunohistochemistry,immunofluorescence,and Western blotting were employed to detect the expres-sion of apoptosis/autophagy-related proteins,synaptic structure markers,and proteins related to the CREB/BDNF/TrkB signaling pathway.Results TP signifi-cantly ameliorated CORT-induced depression-like be-haviors in mice,mainly manifested by reduced immo-bility time in the tail suspension test and forced swim-ming test,and increased sucrose preference rate.TP alleviated CORT-induced oxidative stress by increasing SOD levels and reducing MDA production in brain tis-sue.Additionally,TP also inhibited apoptosis and ex-cessive autophagy of neurons in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex,maintained synaptic plasticity,and significantly upregulated the expression of p-CREB,BDNF,and TrkB.Conclusions TP exhibits potential antidepressant effect in mice by upregulating the CREB/BDNF/TrkB signaling pathway,reducing oxida-tive stress,inhibiting excessive neuronal apoptosis and autophagy,and improving synaptic plasticity.

Objective:To explore the effect of benefit prediction and management method of large medical equipment of daytime surgery center under the diagnosis-intervention packet(DIP)payment mode on improving the efficiency of resource utilization and the medical quality of hospital.Methods:According to the DIP payment mode,the benefit prediction and management of large medical equipment were carried out at different stages included pre-hospital,in-hospital and post-hospital.From April 2022 to April 2024,a total of 240 patients who received treatment in the daytime surgery center of Deyang People's Hospital were selected.According to the application of benefit prediction and management of large medical equipment of daytime surgery center under the DIP payment mode,120 patients were divided into control group and observation group,with 120 cases in each group.The medical quality,the efficiency of equipment utilization and the financial benefits of the patients of two groups,who received daytime surgery,under DIP payment mode were compared.A self-made questionnaire was adopted to investigate the overall satisfaction of the patients of two groups,who received daytime surgery,for daytime surgery by using the method of telephone communication.Results:The incidence of postoperative complications,and the rate of readmitted to hospital in the observation group were respectively 5.00%and 4.17%,which were lower than those(13.33 and 11.67%)in the control group,the success rate of surgery in the observation group was 95%,which was higher than that in the control group(86.67%),and the differences were statistically significant(x2=5.004,4.630,0.641,P<0.05).The average inpatient cost,total cost of the operation of medical equipment and DIP settlement fee of the patients of undergoing daytime surgery in the observation group were all lower than those in the control group,and differences were statistically significant(t=2.168,8.512,14.474,P<0.05).The frequency of using equipment and the average scheduling efficiency of the patients of undergoing day surgery in the observation group were higher than those in the control group,while the average failure rate of equipment and the frequency of maintenance for equipment were lower than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(t=23.211,21.585,5.643,23.944,P<0.05).The average satisfaction of the patients of undergoing daytime surgery in the observation group was higher than that in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(t=8.46,P<0.05).Conclusion:The benefit prediction and management method of large medical equipment in daytime surgery center under the DIP payment mode can improve the operation efficiency and medical quality of the daytime surgery center,and reduce the operation cost of hospital,and promote the optimization allocation of medical resources of hospital.

Objective To investigate changes of serum peroxiredoxin 4 level in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM)at the early stage and its diagnostic value for GDM.Methods A total of 372 early pregnant women who visited our hospital from March 2021 to May 2024 were selected as the study subjects.The diagnosis of GDM was determined based on the results of the oral glucose tolerance test(OGTT).Pregnant women were divided into the GDM group(n=89)and the control group(n=283).Clinical data,laboratory indicators and levels of peroxiredoxin 4 were compared between two groups of patients.The correlation between serum peroxiredoxin 4 levels and laboratory indicators was analyzed.Risk factors for the occurrence of GDM and its diagnostic efficacy for GDM were also analyzed.Results The proportion of family history of diabetes,insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR),fasting plasma glucose(FPG),postprandial 1 h glucose(1 hPG),postprandial 2 h glucose(2 hPG),C-peptide and serum peroxidase reductase 4 were higher in the GDM group than those in the control group(P＜0.05),while the pancreatic β-cell function index(HOMA-β)was lower in the GDM group than those in the control group(P＜0.05).The level of serum peroxidase reductase 4 was positively correlated with HOMA-IR,FPG,1 hPG,2 hPG and C-peptide in the GDM group,and which was negatively correlated with HOMA-β(P＜0.05).Multifactorial Logistic regression analysis showed that elevated HOMA-IR,FPG,1 hPG,2 hPG,C-peptide and peroxidase reductase 4 were risk factors for the occurrence of GDM,while elevated HOMA-β was the protective factor for the occurrence of GDM(P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)for peroxidase reductase 4 in diagnosing GDM was 0.912(95%CI:0.871-0.953),with a sensitivity of 79.79%and specificity of 89.36%when the optimal cutoff value was 0.93 U/L.Conclusion The serum level of peroxiredoxin 4 in GDM patients is significantly elevated,showing good diagnostic efficacy for GDM.
