Objective To explore the role of resilience and stress in childhood maltreatment and adolescent depression and anxiety symptoms, and to provide a basis for adolescent psychological intervention. Methods From September to October 2022, a total of 11 217 students from four middle schools in Changsha were selected by multistage stratified sampling, and the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire, Depression–Anxiety–Stress Scales and the Resilience Scale for Chinese Adolescents were used to carry out online questionnaire survey. Results The detection rate of depressive symptoms and anxiety symptoms in adolescent was 19.43% (2 179) and 28.7% (3 224). The direct effect of childhood maltreatment on depressive symptoms was significant (β =0.09), Childhood maltreatment is a negative prediction of resilience (β = -0.57) and a positive prediction of pressure (β =0.06); Resilience can negatively predict stress (β = -0.61) and depressive symptoms (β = -0.25) (all P values <0.001); The direct effect of childhood maltreatment on anxiety symptoms was significant (β =0.03), resilience negatively predicts anxiety symptoms (β = -0.08) (all P values <0.01). Resilience and stress have a partially mediating role between childhood maltreatment and depressive symptoms, the mediation effect value was 0.39, accounting for 81.25% of the total effect. The effect values of the three pathways accounted for 29.17%, 8.33% and 43.75% of the total effect, respectively. Resilience and stress have a partial mediating effect between childhood abuse and anxiety symptoms, and the mediating effect was 0.36, accounting for 92.31% of the total effect, and the effect values of the three pathways accounted for 12.82%, 10.26% and 69.23% of the total effect, respectively. Conclusion Childhood maltreatment could affect adolescents’ depression and anxiety through the chain mediating effect of resilience and stress.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy and safety of endoscopic endonasal dorsum sellae and posterior clinoid process resection combined with pituitary hemi-transposition in the treatment of pan-sellar area lesions. Methods Clinical data from 57 patients with pan sellar diseases who underwent endoscopic transnasal resection of the posterior clinoid process combined with lateral pituitary displacement surgery in the neurosurgery department of Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University from January 2019 to January 2025 were collected, and their clinical surgical characteristics and prognosis were analyed. Results A total of 57 patients with pan-sellar area lesions were included in this study, comprising 27 craniopharyngiomas, 7 giant suprasellar pituitary adenomas, 7 chordomas, 6 chondrosarcomas, 5 diaphragma sellae/dorsum sellae meningiomas, and 5 rare lesions. All procedures were completed successfully, and gross total or near-total resection was achieved in all patients. No new neurovascular complications occurred intraoperatively. The follow-up duration ranged from 3 to 24 months. New postoperative anterior pituitary insufficiency occurred in 3 patients (5.3%), and new posterior pituitary insufficiency requiring long-term hormone replacement therapy occurred in 4 patients (7.0%). No additional pituitary dysfunction was observed in the remaining patients. Cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea occurred in 1 patient (1.8%) and was successfully repaired. Intracranial infection occurred in 3 patients (5.3%) and resolved after medical treatment. Conclusion Endoscopic resection of the posterior clinoid process combined with lateral displacement of the pituitary gland can effectively expand the surgical space, while repositioning the pituitary gland can reduce the extent of skull base defects. In addition, the risk of pituitary dysfunction caused by lateral displacement of the pituitary gland is relatively low.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of stroke incidence among residents in Changsha City from 2022 to 2023, and to provide a scientific basis for formulating stroke prevention and control measures. Methods The data were obtained from routine cardiovascular and cerebrovascular event monitoring data. The incidence rate, constituent ratio, standardized incidence rate, age incidence rate and other indicators were calculated using SPSS21.0 software. The incidence rate between different genders and between urban and rural areas was compared by χ2 tests. Results From 2022 to 2023, a total of 67 400 stroke cases were reported in 9 districts and counties (cities) of Changsha. The incidence rate and the age standardized rate were 327.40/105 and 374.68/105, respectively. The incidence rate of stroke in men was higher than that in women (χ2=2501.312, P<0.001). The incidence rate of stroke in rural areas was higher than that in urban areas (χ2=2501.312, P<0.001). Among the four subtypes of stroke, cerebral infarction was the most common (62 278 cases, 92.40%). With the increase of age, the incidence rate of stroke generally showed an upward trend, with a low incidence in those aged under 40 years old, and a significant upward trend in those aged 40 years and older. The incidence rate of stroke among residents above 85 years old was the highest, reaching 3414.25/105. Conclusion The incidence of stroke in Changsha residents is higher in men than in women, higher in rural areas than in urban areas, and higher with age. Therefore, targeted stroke prevention and control efforts should be carried out in key areas and populations.

ObjectiveTo investigate the anti-Alzheimer's disease (AD) effect of Dipsacus asper(DA) in the Caenorhabditis elegans model, and decipher the underlying mechanism via the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα)/transcription factor EB (TFEB) pathway. MethodsFirst, transgenic AD C. elegans individuals were assigned into the blank control, model, positive control (WY14643, 20 µmol·L-1), and low-, medium-, and high-dose (100, 200, and 400 mg·L-1, respectively) DA groups. The amyloid β-42 (Aβ42) formation in the muscle cells, the paralysis time, and the deposition of amyloid β-protein (Aβ) in the head were detected. The lysosomal autophagy in the BV2 cell model was examined by Rluc-LC3wt/G120A. The expression levels of lysosomal autophagy-related proteins LC3Ⅱ, LC3I, LAMP2, and TFEB were detected by Western blot. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) was employed to determine the mRNA levels of autophagy-related genes beclin1 and Atg5 and lysosome-related genes LAMP2 and CLN2 downstream of PPARα/TFEB. A reporter gene assay was used to detect the transcriptional activities of PPARα and TFEB. Immunofluorescence was used to detect the fluorescence intensity of PPARα, and the active components of the ethanol extract of DA were identified by UPLC-MS. RCSB PDB, Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform (TCMSP), and Autodock were used to analyze the binding between the active components and PPARα-ligand-binding domain (LBD). ResultsCompared with the model group, the positive control group and 200 and 400 mg·L-1 DA groups showed prolonged paralysis time (P<0.05), and all the treatment groups showed decreased Aβ deposition in the head (P<0.01). DA within the concentration range of 50-500 mg·L-1 did not affect the viability of BV2 cells. In addition, DA enhanced the autophagy flux (P<0.05), up-regulated the mRNA levels of beclin1, Atg5, LAMP2, and CLN2 (P<0.05, P<0.01), promoted the nuclear translocation of TFEB (P<0.05), increased LAMP2 expression and autophagy flux (P<0.05, P<0.01), and enhanced the transcriptional activities of PPARα and TFEB (P<0.01). The positive control group and 200 and 400 mg·L-1 DA groups showed enhanced fluorescence intensity of PPARα in the BV2 nucleus (P<0.01). UPLC-MS detected nine known compounds of DA, from which 8 active components of DA were screened out. The docking results suggested that a variety of components in DA could bind to PPARα-LBD and form stable hydrogen bonds. ConclusionDA may reduce the pathological changes in AD by regulating the PPARα-TFEB pathway.

Objective:To explore the technique methods and clinical application value of β-electrode (a plasma needle shape electrode) assisted laparoscopic repair of complex vesicovaginal fistula (VVF).Methods:Clinical data of one patient with complex VVF admitted to Chinese PLA General Hospital in April 2025 was retrospectively analyzed. A 36-year-old female presented with urinary leakage 2 months after hysterectomy. Computed tomography urography excluded ureterovaginal fistula. Cystoscopy revealed a 2 cm fistula on the posterior bladder wall with both ureteral orifices adjacent to the fistula edge. The procedure involved two steps: first, transurethral β-electrode pretreatment was performed to protect the ureteral orifices and create a passage from the bladder to the abdominal cavity. Then, laparoscopic separation, suture closure of the fistula, and omental flap coverage were conducted.Results:Total operation time was 180 min (the time of β- electrode operation was 30 min) with intraoperative estimated blood loss of 50 mL. The catheter was removed 3 weeks postoperatively, and the patient voided well without leakage during 4-month follow-up.Conclusions:β- electrode assisted laparoscopic repair of complex VVF have the advantage of precise manipulation, minimal invasion and rapid recovery. No similar technique have been reported domestically or internationally. This technique provides a new approach for the treatment of complex VVF.
