Objective:To retrospectively analyze and explore the indications, methods and prognosis of optic nerve decompression (OND) in endoscopic surgery for benign fibro-osseous lesions (FOLs) of the nasal and skull base.Methods:Among 217 cases of craniofacial fibro-osseous lesions from July 2008 to January 2025 who were treated in the Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery Department of Beijing Tongren Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University, 14 patients (6.45%, 14/217) who underwent endoscopic resection of the lesion and OND under image navigation were included in this study, including 8 males and 6 females, aged from 4 to 28 years old. Among the 14 patients, 8 had fibrous dysplasia, 5 had ossifying fibroma, and 1 had osteoma. Clinical data, imaging data, surgical data and follow-up results were collected. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and other indicators before and after treatment were recorded for analysis. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS 26.0 software.Results:Among 14 patients, preoperative visual decline involved 17 eyes (all 8 fibrous dysplasia cases, 2/5 ossifying fibroma cases, and 1 osteoma case). Surgical approaches included: partial resection for fibrous dysplasia (8 cases; bilateral decompression in 5, unilateral in 3); total resection for ossifying fibroma (3 cases; bilateral decompression in 2, unilateral in 1) or partial resection with bilateral decompression (2 cases, including 1 aneurysmal bone cyst); and total resection with unilateral decompression for osteoma (1 case). After the operation, the vision of 10 eyes (58.82%, 10/17) had been improved. Among the 5 eyes with severe visual impairment before the operation (no light perception/light perception/exponential vision), 2 eyes improved (1 eye from no light perception to light perception, and 1 eye from visual perception to exponential vision). Eight cases (10 eyes) of patients with proptosis improved after the operation. The proptosis before and after the operation were (16.60±1.71) mm and (13.60±1.35) mm ( P<0.05). Conclusions:For patients with benign FOLs involving the optic canal at the nasal and skull base who have visual impairment, OND via endoscopic endonasal approach can achieve visual salvage effects. Those with better preoperative residual vision have significant improvement in BCVA, so the operation should be performed as early as possible.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic value of image enhancement endoscopy (IEE) for sinonasal malignant tumors.Methods:Patients with nasal neoplasms at the Department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery at Beijing Tongren Hospital from January 2019 to December 2021 were examined using white light endoscopy (WLE) and IEE. Targeted biopsy was performed after image collection, and the images were analyzed by two blinded observers. Pathological diagnosis was compared with endoscopic findings. Diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) were calculated, and P<0.05 was statistically significant. Kappa(k) was employed to assess consistency between endoscopic and histopathological diagnoses. The vascular patterns of sinonasal malignancy were compared with Ni endoscopic classification.Results:This study ultimately included 193 patients with nasal tumors, and 41 cases (21.24%, 41/193) were comfirmed histopathologically with sinonasal malignancies. WLE correctly diagnosed 18 cases (43.90%, 18/41), while IEE diagnosed 28 cases (68.29%, 28/41). Among the 41 malignancies, 28 cases (68.29%, 28/41) showed patchy/punctate patterns and tortuous vessels (Ni type Ⅴ). All 14 squamous epithelium-derived malignancies (34.15%, 14/41) had Ni type Ⅴ vessels. Of 27 non-squamous malignancies, 14 cases (34.15%, 14/41) were Ni type Ⅴ, 7 cases (17.07%, 7/41) were false negatives, 6 cases (14.63%, 6/41) that their vessels were obscured by necrotic tissue. Compared to WLE, IEE had higher sensitivity (80.00% vs 51.42%), specificity (98.68% vs 96.69%), PPV (93.33% vs 78.26%), NPV (95.51% vs 89.57%), diagnostic consistency (95.16% vs 88.17%), and κ value (0.832 vs 0.554). Conclusions:IEE improves the endoscopic diagnosis of sinonasal malignancies. Ni type Ⅴ is suitable for the diagnosis of malignant tumors of squamous epithelial malignant tumors.

BackgroundSchool bullying is a serious social issue. Non-suicidal self-injury （NSSI） is a highly prevalent behavior among adolescents with depression and is also becoming a great matter of concern. Previous studies have proved a very close correlation among school bullying， experiential avoidance， family functioning， and NSSI behavior. However， there is a considerable lack of research on the moderating role of family functioning in the relationship between school bullying and experiential avoidance in adolescents with depression in China. ObjectiveTo explore the mediating role of experiential avoidance in the relationship between school bullying and NSSI in adolescents with depressive disorder， and the moderating role of family functioning in the relationship between school bullying and experiential avoidance， so as to provide references for formulating intervention strategies for NSSI in adolescents with depressive disorder. MethodsFrom January to December 2024， 318 consecutive adolescent patients fulfilling the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders， fifth edition （DSM-5） diagnostic criteria for depression and attending the outpatient department of Weifang Mental Health Center were selected. All respondents completed the Delaware Bullying Victimization Scale-Student （DBVS-S）， Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-II （AAQ-II）， Family Assessment Device （FAD）， and Behavioral Questionnaire in the Adolescent Non-suicidal Self-injury Assessment Questionnaire （ANSAQ）. Pearson correlation was used to examine the relationship among variables. SPSS Process Macro v4.1 package program was utilized to seek the mediating and moderating effects. ResultsData were collected from 306 valid respondents （96.23%）. In adolescent with depressive disorder， DBVS-S score was positively correlated with both the behavioral questionnaire score in the ANSAQ and the AAQ-II score （r=0.357， 0.558， P<0.01）. AAQ-II score was positively correlated with the behavioral questionnaire score in the ANSAQ （r=0.380， P<0.01）. Experiential avoidance partially mediated the relationship between school bullying and NSSI in adolescents with depressive disorder， and the mediating effect value was 0.142 （95% CI： 0.081~0.204）. Family functioning moderated the relationship between school bullying and experiential avoidance， and the moderated mediation value was 0.096 （95% CI： 0.042~0.165）. ConclusionMediation is found from school bullying to NSSI behavior through experiential avoidance in adolescents with depressive disorder， and family functioning plays a moderating role in the relationship between school bullying and experiential avoidance.

Objective To investigate the protective effects and potential mechanisms of tetrahydrocurcumin(THC)on thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection(TAAD)in mice.Methods TAAD was induced in 3-week-old C57BL/6J mice by oral administration of β-aminopropionitrile(BAPN)(diluted in drinking water,1 g/(kg·d)).Eighty mice were divided randomly into Con,BAPN,BAPN+THC,and BAPN+THC+3-TYP(SIRT3 inhibitor)groups(n=20 mice per group).The survival rate of mice in each group was recorded after 4 weeks.The maximum diameter of the aorta was measured and the histomorphology and aortic wall elastin integrity were evaluated by hematoxylin and eosin and elastin van Gieson staining.Macrophage infiltration was detected by immunohistochemical staining and α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA)and osteopontin(OPN)expression were detected by immunofluorescence staining.The production of reactive oxygen species(ROS)was measured by dihydroethidium staining and superoxide dismutase(SOD)activity and malondialdehyde(MDA)levels were determined using kits.Protein expression levels of matrix metalloproteinase(MMP)2,MMP9,interleukin(IL)-6,tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α,nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2(NRF2),NADPH oxidase 2(NOX2),α-SMA,OPN,sirtuin 3(SIRT3),Ac-SOD2,and SOD2 were measured by Western Blot.Results Mice in the BAPN+THC group showed significantly higher survival and a lower incidence of TAAD compared with the BAPN group and the degree of aortic dilatation and morphology and structure were improved(P＜0.05).Infiltration of CD68-positive macrophages and MMP2,MMP9,IL-6,and TNF-α expression levels were lower(P＜0.05),ROS generation,MDA content,and NOX2 expression in aortic tissue were also significantly decreased,while SOD activity and NRF2 expression were increased(P＜0.05).α-SMA expression was also increased,while OPN expression was reduced(P＜0.05).SIRT3 expression was increased while the Ac-SOD2/SOD2 ratio was decreased(P＜0.01).Treatment with the SIRT3-specific inhibitor and silencing of SIRT3 counteracted the ability of THC to resist TAAD via the SIRT3 signaling pathway(all P＜0.05).Conclusions THC alleviated inflammation and oxidative stress in aortic tissues by activating the SIRT3 signaling pathway,thus inhibiting the phenotypic transformation of vascular smooth muscle cells and resisting the formation of TAAD in mice.

ObjectiveTo analyze the mental health status and its influencing factors in middle school students under the regular prevention and control of COVID-19， so as to provide references for the intervention and management of their mental health problems. MethodsFrom March 7 to 21， 2021， a stratified random sampling method was used to select 19 352 students from 17 schools in 3 districts and 9 counties of Linyi City， Shandong Province. Basic data were collected through a self-designed questionnaire. All students completed the Symptom Checklist 90 （SCL-90） to assess their mental health status. Then the factors affecting the mental health status of middle school students were screened using independent sample t-test， one-way ANOVA test and multiple stepwise regression analysis. Results① A total of 6 350 （32.81%） middle school students were found to have mental health problems. ② Each SCL-90 factor score and total average score yielded statistical difference among middle school students of different genders， relationships with classmate， closeness to friends， concerns about the epidemic， and pressure exerted by schoolwork （P<0.01）. Each SCL-90 factor score and total average score of middle school students were significant different in terms of the hours of smartphone usage for recreation per day， sleep duration per night in hours and exercise frequency （P<0.01）. ③ Multiple stepwise regression analysis denoted that female gender， poor relationship with classmate， no close friend and long hours of smartphone usage for recreation were the risk factors for mental health of middle school students （β=0.096， 0.183， 0.064， 0.232， P<0.01）. ConclusionThe prevalence rate of mild mental health problems is quite high among middle school students under the regular epidemic prevention and control. Additionally， female gender， poor relationship with classmate， no close friend and long hours of smartphone usage for recreation have a negative impact on middle school students' mental health.

This paper reported a case of a 25-year-old male schizophrenic patient， who obtained remission from psychotic symptoms during the treatment of olanzapine and trihexylphenidyl， was given ziprasidone treatment additionally due to the occurrence of auditory hallucination， and developed stuttering 4 days later. The stuttering disappeared 2 days following the discontinuation of therapy， and reappeared after reinstitution of ziprasidone therapy， but disappeared again after discontinuation. The dose of olanzapine was increased to 20 mg/d to ensure the stability of psychotic remission. At a follow-up visit 4 months later， the patient’s mental condition was stable and stuttering did not recur， indicating that the stuttering was induced by ziprasidone. This case suggests that the possibility of stuttering as an adverse reaction should be considered in the clinical application of ziprasidone.
