Objective: To explore the impact of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) on health risk behaviors (HRBs) among college students and the mediating role of psychological symptoms, so as to provide a basis for developing intervention strategies. Methods: From March to April 2023, a convenience cluster sample of 1 801 students from 12 universities in Nanning, Liuzhou, Guilin, Wuzhou of Guangxi completed an online survey. A self designed questionnaire, Adverse Childhood Experiences-International Questionnaire (ACE-IQ) and Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90) were used for evaluation tools. Binary Logistic regression, structural equation modeling (SEM) and Bootstrap methods were used to analyze the associations and mediating effects. Results: Overall, 71.2% of college students experienced at least one type of ACE, with emotional neglect (40.3%) and emotional abuse ( 25.2 %) having the highest detection rates. The top three HRBs were unhealthy diet (77.8%), physical inactivity (54.1%), and smoking/alcohol use (18.5%). Logistic regression showed that poor family functioning, abuse, and extra familial violence were each associated with an increased risk of smoking/alcohol use ( OR =1.14, 1.11, 1.18) and deliberate self harm ( OR =1.26, 1.19,1.30) (all P <0.05). Experience of abuse increased the risk of high risk sexual behavior and family dysfunction increaded the risk of physical inactivity, respectively ( OR = 1.07 , 1.04, both P <0.05). Mediation analysis revealed that anxiety ( β =0.20) and depression ( β = 0.09 ) partially mediated the pathway from poor family functioning to deliberate self harm; paranoia ( β =0.02) partially mediated the pathway from abuse to high risk sexual behavior; and obsessive-compulsive symptoms ( β =0.26) and depression ( β =0.10) partially mediated the pathway from extra familial violence to deliberate self harm (all P <0.05). Conclusion Psychological symptoms play a mediating role in the association between ACEs and HRBs, and mental health interventions may reduce the risk of HRBs among college students.

Objective To investigate the etiology and treatment of dysuria shortly after holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), so as to improve the therapeutic efficacy. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 1361 BPH patients who received HoLEP at our hospital during Mar. 2018 and Mar. 2025. All patients underwent ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), urethral probing or radiography, cystourethroscopy, and urodynamic testing. The causes, treatments and prognosis of dysuria after operation were summarized. Results ninety-eight patients (7.2%) experienced dysuria within 3 months after surgery, and all patients received initial urethral dilation. Among the 62 cases with urethral stricture, 28 were treated with urethral dilation (average of 8 sessions), 16 underwent external urethral incision, 8 underwent anterior urethroplasty, and 10 underwent transurethral plasma incision for urethral stricture. Of the 12 cases with residual prostate tissue, 5 underwent urethral plasma prostatectomy and 7 received medication. All of the 12 cases with bladder neck contracture underwent transurethral plasma incision of the bladder neck and local drug injection. Five cases with intravesical blood clots underwent urethral blood clot irrigation, 2 of which developed active bleeding and then underwent electrocoagulation. Four cases with detrusor dysfunction had catheters re-indwelled for one week followed by medication. Two cases with stone and one case with tissue fragment impacted in the urethra underwent urethral holmium lithotripsy and cystoscopic removal. All patients underwent reoperation successfully and experienced complete resolution or significant improvement of urinary difficulties. Conclusion A certain proportion of patients experience dysuria after HoLEP, with diverse etiologies. The combination of prevention and treatment can reduce the incidence of dysuria.

Objective To classify the foot types of young Chinese males,extract characteristic indicators of foot types,and construct a standard foot type database.Methods Foot type data from 1 483 healthy young male individuals were collected.Spectral clustering algorithm was utilized to categorize foot types,and a deep neural network(DNN)was employed for training the classification model.Layer-wise relevance propagation(LRP)and the correlation coefficient method were combined to extract foot type features,and the differences in various foot type characteristics were compared.Results Spectral clustering yielded 4 distinct foot type categories.Foot type 1 was characterized by a high-arched foot with a prominent big toe,inwardly rotated 5th toe,and a high heel with a wide foot;foot type 2 was characterized by a narrow foot with hallux valgus;foot type 3 was characterized by a low-arched foot with hallux valgus;foot type 4 was characterized by a high-arched foot with a prominent big toe.By integrating interpretable neural networks and the correlation coefficient method,nine indicators were extracted from 27 foot type indicators,including the heel to the sole length,hallux height,navicular bone height,lateral malleolus height,hallux valgus angle,5th toe angle,dorsal foot circumference,heel angle,and longitudinal arch angle.The classification model constructed with these extracted indicators achieved an overall discrimination accuracy rate of 93.67％.Conclusions Chinese young males can be classified into four typical foot types.By examining the rearfoot,midfoot,and forefoot regions,nine key foot morphology parameters,including length,height,circumference,and angle,can be extracted.These parameters provide both theoretical and empirical support for establishing normative data on foot morphology for Chinese young males and for advancing biomechanical researches on the foot and ankle.

Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of 12 plasma cytokines in patients with pancreatic cancer.Methods The study included 120 patients with pancreatic cancer diagnosed and treated at Qingdao University Affiliated Hospital and 68 healthy controls from March 2023 to June 2024.The levels of 12 plasma cytokines,including interleukin(IL)-1 β,IL-2,IL-4,IL-5,IL-6,IL-8,IL-10,IL-12P,IL-17,interferon(IFN)-α,IFN-γ,and tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α,were detected using mul-tiplex bead-based flow immunoassay.The levels of tumor markers carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA),carbohydrate antigen 19-9(CA19-9)and carbohydrate antigen 72-4(CA 72-4)in the serum of pancreatic cancer patients were detected by electrochemilumines-cence,while carbohydrate antigen 242(CA242)were detected by chemiluminescence methods.The correlation between the expression levels of differentially expressed cytokines and those of tumor markers was analyzed using Spearman's rank correlation.Results The plasma levels of 9 cytokines(IL-1 β,IL-4,IL-5,IL-6,IL-8,IL-10,IL-17,IFN-α,and IFN-γ)in the patients with pancreatic canc-er were significantly higher than those in controls(all P＜0.05).The levels of IL-1 β,IL-6,IL-8,IL-10,and IL-17 in the advanced pancreatic cancer group were significantly higher than those in the early-stage group(P＜0.05).The plasma IL-6 level in the poorly dif-ferentiated pancreatic cancer group was significantly higher than that in the well-differentiated group(P＜0.05).The serum levels of CEA,CA19-9,CA242,and CA72-4 in the advanced pancreatic cancer group were significantly higher than those in the early-stage group(P＜0.05).The serum CEA level in the poorly differentiated pancreatic cancer group was significantly higher than that in the moderately differentiated pancreatic cancer group(P＜0.05).After four cycles of chemotherapy,IL-8 levels in the disease control group were significantly reduced compared to pre-treatment levels(P＜0.05),while IL-6,IL-8,and IL-10 levels in the disease progression group were significantly elevated compared to pre-treatment levels(all P＜0.05).In the patients with pancreatic cancer,plasma IL-6 levels were positively correlated with serum CEA levels(rs=0.238,P＜0.01)and serum CA19-9 levels(rs=0.186,P＜0.05).The plasma IL-10 levels were positively correlated with serum CA72-4(rs=0.220,P＜0.05)levels in the patients.Conclusion Nine cyto-kines in plasma,such as IL-6,etc.may be involved in the formation of the inflammatory microenvironment of pancreatic cancer,as well as in the proliferation and differentiation of tumor cells.The determination of their plasma levels should be helpful for the assessing disease conditions and therapeutic effects.

Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) is often resistant to conventional therapies, and prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeted radionuclide therapy has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy. Ligands such as 177Lu-PSMA and 225Ac-PSMA have demonstrated clinical benefits in ongoing studies and show potential when combined with endocrine therapy, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and radiotherapy. Additionally, novel therapeutic approaches, including PSMA-targeted antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy, and bispecific T-cell engagers (BiTEs), are being actively explored. This review summarizes the recent advancements in PSMA-targeted treatment and their clinical applications.

Objective:To investigate anxiety symptoms and associated factors in relocated elderly residents of new townships,and to provide evidence for prevention interventions.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conduc-ted in relocated elderly residents in new townships of three urban areas in Shandong Province from 2021 to 2023.The study instruments included Ascertain Dementia-8,Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7,self-administered de-mographic characteristics information questionnaire.Multivariate analysis of factors associated with anxiety symp-toms in elderly residents was performed using multivariate logistic regression.Results:The prevalence rate of mild anxiety symptoms was 5.8％,and the rate of moderate-to-severe anxiety symptoms was 1.3％in 3 313 resi-dents.Multivariate analysis found that self-assessed general psychological condition(OR=0.52),good family envi-ronment(OR=0.34),no self-perceived cognitive impairment(OR=0.31),no chronic diseases(OR=0.42),and only one chronic disease(OR=0.61)were protective factors for mild anxiety symptoms,and very good dietary structure(OR=2.15)and fair dietary structure(OR=2.39)were risk factors for those.Very good family environ-ment(OR=0.11)and average family environment(OR=0.16),and no self-perceived cognitive impairment(OR=0.14)were protective factors for moderate-to-severe anxiety symptoms,and 0-3 years(OR=3.24)and 4-6 years(OR=3.28)of relocation were risk factors for those.Conclusion:Family environment,dietary structure,and duration since relocation are key factors associated with anxiety symptoms among relocated elderly residents in new townships.Targeted interventions should be implemented to address their mental health needs.

Objective To explore the applicative value of spectral CT in increasing positive rates of lung cancer puncture and reducing complications during CT guided percutaneous transthoracic needle biopsy(PTNB).Methods The pathological results and complica-tion incidences of 260 PTNB patients were analyzed retrospectively.All patients were divided into three groups:group A(conventional CT group,103 cases)used a scheme based on conventional enhanced CT;group B(PET/CT group,84 cases)used a scheme combining the maximum standardized uptake value(SUVmax)with conventional enhanced CT;group C(spectral CT group,73 cases)used a scheme of quantitative spectral CT parameters and images.Results Group A included 103 cases in total,of which 87 were positive(84.47％),41 pneumothorax(39.81％),and 31 hemorrhage(30.10％).Group B totaled 84 cases,including 82 positive cases(97.62％),19 cases of pneumothorax(22.62％),and 11 cases of hemorrhage(13.10％).Group C was of 73 cases,including 70 positive cases(95.89％),16 cases of pneumothorax(21.92％),and 10 cases of hemorrhage(13.70％).There were statistically significant differ-ences in biopsy positive rates,pneumothorax incidences,and hemorrhage incidences among groups A,B,and C(P＜0.05).There were also statistically significant differences in biopsy positive rates,pneumothorax incidences,and hemorrhage incidences between groups A and B or groups A and C(P＜0.016 7),respectively.However,no statistically significant differences were found between groups B and C in biopsy positive rates,pneumothorax incidences,and hemorrhage incidences(P＞0.016 7).Conclusion Spectral CT can improve the positive rate of lung cancer and reduce the risk of pneumothorax and hemorrhage with PTNB.
