Chinese Journal of School Health 2026;47(1):65-69
Objective:
To explore the effects of personality and sleep quality with psychological distress of junior and senior high school stduents, so as to provide a reference basis for precise interventions of junior and senior high school students mental health.
Methods:
In October 2023, a convenience sampling method was used to select 9 034 students aged 12-17 from Shiyan City as the study subjects. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) were used to collect information on sleep quality and psychological distress of junior and senior high school stduents. Between group comparison was conducted by using t-test and Chi-square test. Generalized linear models were employed to analyze the interaction and joint effects of personality and sleep quality on psychological distress.
Results:
The generalized linear model analysis showed that the interaction between personality and sleep quality on psychological distress was statistically significant of junior and senior high school students(effect size=0.80, P <0.01). The general linear model analysis indicated that, after adjusting for variables such as age, gender, screen time, and daily sitting time with the extroverted and good sleep quality group as the reference, the introverted and poor sleep quality group had the largest mean difference in psychological distress scores (difference=0.51, P <0.05). When stratified by sleep quality, psychological distress scores were higher in the introverted and neutral personality groups with both poor and good sleep quality compared to the extroverted group (poor sleep quality: introverted difference=3.71, neutral difference=1.14; good sleep quality: introverted difference=2.23, neutral difference=0.57, all P < 0.05). When stratified by personality, psychological distress scores were higher in the poor sleep quality groups for introverted, neutral, and extroverted individuals compared to their good sleep quality counterparts (differences=8.66, 7.83, 7.34, all P < 0.05 ).
Conclusions
Personality and sleep quality have interactive and joint effects on psychological distress of junior and senior high school stduents. Personalized psychological interventions should be developed based on personality and sleep quality.

AIM: To investigate the relationship between serum levels of sirtuins(Sirts)1-6 and oxidative stress markers, and to evaluate their diagnostic value for age-related cataract(ARC).METHODS:A prospective cohort of ARC patients admitted to the hospital between June 2019 and July 2021 was enrolled as the study subjects. Concurrently, age-matched healthy individuals undergoing routine physical examinations at the hospital during the same period were recruited as the control group. Baseline demographic and clinical characteristics were compared between the two groups. Serum levels of Sirt1-6 and oxidative stress markers including malondialdehyde(MDA), superoxide dismutase(SOD), glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px), and total antioxidant capacity(TAC)were compared. Pearson correlation analysis was performed to assess the associations between serum Sirt1-6 levels and oxidative stress parameters. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was conducted to analysis risk factors associated with ARC occurrence. Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic value of serum Sirt1-6 levels and oxidative stress indicators for ARC.RESULTS: The study included 127 ARC patients, comprising 68 men and 59 women, with a mean age of 66.05±2.58 y; the concurrent control group consisted of 121 patients, comprising 63 men and 58 women, with a mean age of 65.54±2.86 y. Serum levels of Sirt1, 3 and 6, SOD, GSH-Px, and TAC were significantly lower in the ARC group compared to the control group(all P<0.001), whereas MDA levels were markedly elevated(P<0.001). Pearson correlation analysis revealed that serum levels of Sirt1, Sirt3, Sirt6 in the ARC group were positively correlated with SOD, GSH-Px, and TAC, and negatively correlated with MDA. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that serum Sirt1, Sirt6, MDA, SOD, and GSH-Px were significantly associated with the occurrence of ARC(all P<0.001). ROC curve analysis showed that the combination of Sirt1, Sirt6, MDA, SOD, and GSH-Px yielded an area under the curve(AUC)of 0.995 for diagnosing ARC, which was significantly higher than that of Sirt1 alone(Z=4.978,P<0.001), Sirt6 alone(Z=7.487,P<0.001), MDA alone(Z=6.449,P<0.001), SOD alone(Z=5.773,P<0.001), or GSH-Px alone(Z=5.056,P<0.001), indicating superior diagnostic accuracy of the multimarker panel(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Serum levels of Sirt1, 3, and 6 are generally reduced in ARC patients and are closely associated with oxidative stress imbalance. Specifically, decreased serum levels of Sirt1 and Sirt6, along with oxidative stress markers(elevated MDA and reduced SOD and GSH-Px)are identified as risk factors for ARC. Moreover, the combined detection of these indicators presents high diagnostic value for ARC.

ObjectiveTo construct and evaluate various machine learning models for predicting the risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in individuals, thereby providing data support for early screening and intervention. MethodsA total of 823 subjects were selected for this study, comprising 142 individuals in the high-risk group for COPD and 681 individuals in the low-risk group. Data collected included demographic characteristics, smoking history, symptoms (such as cough and shortness of breath), and scores from the Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease screening questionnaire. Four machine learning algorithms—Logistic regression, random forest, support vector machine, and XGBoost—were utilized to construct risk prediction models. The performance of these models was assessed using 5-fold cross-validation, with evaluation metrics including accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), and average precision (AP). Furthermore, a feature importance analysis was performed. ResultsThe Logistic Regression model exhibited superior performance, achieving an AUC of 0.982 and an AP of 0.939. This was closely followed by the Random Forest model, which recorded an AUC of 0.975 and an AP of 0.890. Feature importance analysis revealed that smoking history, symptoms of shortness of breath, and body weight were significant predictors. All models demonstrated robust performance in identifying low-risk populations; however, variations were observed in their efficacy in identifying high-risk populations. ConclusionMachine learning models have proven effective in identifying individuals at high risk for COPD. Among these, the Logistic regression model exhibits the best overall performance, efficiently identifying high-risk populations and serving as a valuable clinical auxiliary screening tool. Various models, each with distinct performance characteristics, are suited to different clinical screening scenarios, thereby offering targeted decision-making support for the establishment of a hierarchical and intelligent COPD screening pathway.

Objective:To establish a rapid and accurate duplex real-time fluorescent reverse transcription-recombinase polymerase amplification/recombinase-aided amplification(RT-RPA/RAA)detection method for identification and differentiation of Nipah virus(NiV),Langya virus(LayV),Mojiang virus(MoJV),and Cedar virus(CedV).Methods:First,specific primers and probes were designed targeting the conserved L gene regions of NiV and LayV,as well as the conserved N gene regions of MoJV and CedV,respectively. The four viruses were divided into two groups for duplex detection. Subsequently,the optimal primer and probe combinations were screened by comparing the amplification efficiency of different primer pair combinations(F1/R1,F1/R2,F2/R1,F2/R2). The reaction temperature was optimized through temperature gradient settings from 37 ℃ to 42 ℃,and the amounts of primers and probes were optimized to establish the duplex real-time fluorescent RT-RPA/RAA detection system. Finally,the detection performance was evaluated through specificity,sensitivity,and stability tests,as well as clinical sample validation.Results:The selected primer pairs(NiV primer pair F2/R1,LayV primer pair F1/R1,MoJV primer pair F2/R2,and CedV primer pair F2/R2)all demonstrated optimal amplification efficiency when combined with their corresponding probes. The optimal annealing temperature was 39 ℃,and the minimum detection limit was 101-102 copies/μl. The method could effectively distinguish target viruses from other non-target viruses,and repeated experiments showed good stability( R2> 0.90). Additionally,detection results for Malaysian NiV strains and various clinical samples were consistent with the Taqman multiplex qRT-PCR method. Conclusion:The duplex real-time fluorescent RT-RPA/RAA detection method successfully established in this study can rapidly and accurately identify and differentiate four important henipavirus-like viruses:NiV,LayV,MoJV,and CedV. It features simple operation,rapid reaction,high specificity,and good stability,providing an effective molecular detection tool for rapid field diagnosis,surveillance,and control of these zoonotic viruses.

Objective:To investigate the safety and efficacy of a modified radiofrequency ablation(RFA)treatment method for primary great saphenous vein varicose.Methods:Clinical data of 90 patients with primary great saphenous vein varicose treated with ultrasound-guided RFA from January 2021 to April 2024 in the Ultrasound Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were retrospectively analyzed. Among them,45 patients were treated with traditional RFA treatment method(traditional group)and 45 patients were treated with improved RFA treatment method(improved group). Number of punctures,operation time,foam hardener dosage,intraoperative and postoperative complications were recorded in the two groups. The preoperative and postoperative venous clinical severity score(VCSS)and chronic venous insufficiency questionnaire(CIVIQ-14)were compared. The closure rate and recurrence rate of great saphenous vein varicose were followed up and the efficacy of the two methods were analyzed.Results:The success rate of the improved group and the traditional group was 100%.The number of punctures in the improved group was less than those of the traditional group[1(1,1) vs. 2(2,3), Z = -7.431, P<0.001],and the operation time of the modified group was shorter than that of the traditional group[(15.89 ± 3.63)min vs.(30.91 ± 5.58)min, t=-15.145, P<0.001],the average volume of lauryl foam was lower than that of the traditional RFA group[(7.96 ± 2.36)ml vs.(15.69 ± 2.89)ml, t=-13.892, P<0.001]. The incidence of complications was similar between the two groups,with no statistical significance(all P>0.05). Postoperative VCSS and CIVIQ-14 scores were significantly improved compared with before(all P<0.001),with no statistical significance between the two groups(all P>0.05). At 12 months after the operation,there was no significant difference in the closure rate of the saphenous vein between the improved group and the traditional group( P>0.05),and the recurrence rate of varicose veins in both groups was 0. Conclusions:This modified RFA treatment method for the treatment of lower extremity varicose veins is minimally invasive,safe,and has the same efficacy as the traditional RFA treatment method. Compared with the traditional RFA treatment method,the modified RFA treatment method has the advantages of convenient operation,less puncture times and shorter operation time,and is worthy of clinical promotion.
