In recent years， the incidence of depression among adolescents has increased significantly， becoming a serious global public health problem. There is a close relationship between adolescent depression and lipid metabolism abnormalities. However， the mechanisms underlying this association have not been fully elucidated. This article provides a review of the mechanisms and interventions linking adolescent depression and lipid metabolism abnormalities， aiming to offer new ideas for interventions in adolescent depression. Using computerized searches of the China National Knowledge Infrastructure （CNKI）， Wanfang Data， PubMed， and Web of Science， studies on the mechanisms and interventions related to adolescent depression and lipid metabolism were collected， with the search period extending up to October 10， 2025. Two researchers independently conducted literature screening and extracted basic information from the included studies. A total of 12 original studies were included. The results indicate that adolescent depression is associated with certain lipid metabolites. Neurobiological factors， immune inflammation， oxidative stress， and gut microbiota imbalance play important roles in this association. In addition， lipid metabolites such as omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids （ω-3 PUFAs） have a significant ameliorating effect on adolescent depression. ［Funded by Shenzhen Fund for Guangdong Provincial High-level Clinical Key Specialties （number， SZGSP013）； Shenzhen Science and Technology Program （number， 20210617155253001）］

Objective:To explore the establishment, implementation, and application effect of the annual progressive assessment mode for standardized training of resident physicians in a medical laboratory base.Methods:Since 2020, the base has improved the annual progressive assessment system through assessment system establishment, question bank construction, routine assessment, rotation examination, and annual examination. This new assessment mode was adopted for the residency trainees enrolled in the base after 2020. The control group consisted of seven residency trainees enrolled before 2020, while the experimental group comprised 13 trainees enrolled in 2020 and later. The two groups were compared based on the rotation and annual examination scores of second- and third-year trainees, as well as their academic achievements. Additionally, teaching outcomes of the base before and after 2020 were analyzed. The t test, rank-sum test, and Fisher's exact test were performed using SPSS 27.00. Results:There were no significant differences in age, sex, and education level between the two groups. The experimental group showed significantly higher scores than the control group in theory assessment ( P<0.001 for second-year trainees and P=0.008 for third-year trainees) and skill assessment ( P<0.001 for second-year trainees and P=0.038 for third-year trainees) in rotation examination, as well as in theory assessment (both P<0.001) and skill assessment (both P<0.001) in annual examination. The improvement was particularly pronounced among second-year trainees. The trainees of the experimental group submitted 17 case reports in three years, and won awards at national conferences, provincial conferences, and institutional case speech competitions. In a national academic conference, the trainees won the second prize of "Excellent Case". Since 2020, we have been granted with our first teaching reform project and published our first teaching article. To date, we have obtained five teaching reform projects, published six teaching articles, and won multiple awards in provincial and institutional teaching competitions. Conclusions:The establishment of the annual progressive assessment mode is critical for training high-quality laboratory physicians, and puts forward higher requirements for residency training teachers.

Objective:To analyze the efficacy of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) combined with main splenic artery embolization in the treatment of patients with portal hypertension upper gastrointestinal bleeding complicated with extensive portal vein thrombosis (PVT).Methods:This study was a prospective, single-center, open-label, single-arm clinical trial. In the first phase, 81 patients with portal hypertension upper gastrointestinal bleeding who were admitted to Beijing Shijitan Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2018 to December 2018 were consecutively enrolled, including 57 males and 24 females, with the age of (51.3±10.4) years. During TIPS surgery, the pressure of the portal vein before and after the balloon blocking the splenic artery was measured to clarify the contribution of the splenic artery to portal hypertension. In the second stage, from January 2019 to December 2022, 104 patients with portal hypertension upper gastrointestinal bleeding complicated with extensive PVT were re-enrolled, including 71 males and 33 females, with the age of (50.9±12.5) years. TIPS combined with main splenic artery embolization was performed, and portal vein pressure was measured before and after embolization. Follow up on the postoperative esophageal and gastric varices of the patients in the second stage.Results:The portal vein pressures before and after the first stage of balloon occlusion of the splenic artery were (35.2±8.4) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) and (24.2±6.3) mmHg, respectively. The pressure after occlusion was lower than that before occlusion, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=10.54, P<0.001). The portal vein pressures before and after the second stage embolization were (36.1±9.5) mmHg and (21.1±4.7) mmHg respectively. The pressure after embolization was lower than that before embolization, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=13.47, P<0.001). In the second stage, among the 104 patients, the proportion of those whose varicose veins disappeared or improved 6 months after the operation was 43.3%(45/104) and 51.0%(53/104), respectively. There were no patients with aggravation or rebleeding due to rupture. One year later, 8 patients (7.7%) had aggravated or ruptured esophageal and gastric varices with bleeding. Two years later, 12 patients (11.5%) had aggravated or bleeding. Conclusion:TIPS combined with main splenic artery embolization can effectively reduce the portal vein pressure in patients with portal hypertension upper gastrointestinal bleeding complicated with extensive PVT, improve the degree of esophageal and gastric varices, and reduce the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding.
