Objective To investigate the internalized weight bias and weight control beliefs regarding the current status,influencing factors,and impacts on eating behaviors of women losing weight. Methods A convenient sampling method was used to select the females who underwent physical examination in the Peking Union Medical College Hospital from August to December 2023.The general information questionnaire,Weight Bias Internalization Scale,Weight Control Belief Questionnaire,and Chinese version of Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire were utilized for investigation.Latent class analysis was conducted to explore the potential categories based on the characteristics of internalized weight bias and weight control beliefs.Univariate analysis and multiple-factor linear regression analysis were performed to explore influencing factors of potential categories and their effects on eating behaviors. Results A total of 518 subjects were included in this study.The internalized weight bias and weight control beliefs could be classified into three potential categories: low weight bias tolerance type(53.7%),medium weight bias persistence type(29.5%),and high weight bias overcritical type(16.8%).Logistic regression analysis showed that body mass index,unmarriage,and divorce were the influencing factors of the high weight bias overcritical type.The scores of non-control eating and emotional eating in medium weight bias persistence type and high weight bias overcritical type were higher than those in low weight bias tolerance type(all P<0.001). Conclusions The attitudes of Chinese women towards body weight can be categorized into low weight bias tolerance type,medium weight bias persistence type,and high weight bias overcritical type.The high weight bias overcritical type is characterized by high weight bias and high personal responsibility attribution,and it is closely associated with negative eating behaviors.A high body mass index,unmarriage,and divorce are high-risk factors for developing the high weight bias overcritical type.

Objective To explore aging effect on healthy cerebral white matter using fixel-based analysis(FBA)on diffusion tensor imaging.Methods Eighty-seven healthy participants were divided into younger group and older group according to their ages,and all of whom were examined with diffusion tensor imaging at 3.0T.The fractional anisotropy(FA)of two groups was compared using whole brain voxel-based analysis(VBA).Then,FBA was used to calculate complexity(CX),fiber density(FD),fiber cross-section(FC)and fiber density and fiber cross-section(FDC)in voxels where older group exhibited significantly lower FA values than younger group.Finally,certain tracts of interest were chosen for tract-specific analyses.Results Compared with younger group,older group had significantly lower FA values in the genu of corpus callosum,splenium of corpus callosum,fornix,and posterior limb of internal capsule(P<0.05).Besides the above regions,older group showed significantly lower FD,FC and FDC in the anterior thalamic radiation,anterior limb of internal capsule,cerebral peduncle,superior longitudinal fasciculus,inferior longitudinal fasciculus,cingulum gyrus,forceps-minor and uncinate fasciculus(P<0.05).In voxels where FA values of older group were significantly lower than those of younger group,strong negative correlation was observed between average CX and average FA,while positive correlation was observed between average FD/FDC and average FA.Quantitative tract-specific analyses showed that older group had showed lower FD,FC and FDC in regard of superior longitudinal fasciculus,inferior longitudinal fasciculus,cingulum,anterior thalamic radiation,forceps-minor and uncinate fasciculus(P<0.05).Conclusion FBA reveals the characteristics of specific fibers and can be used to perform comprehensive and effective evaluation of aging effect on healthy cerebral white matter.

Objective To explore the preferences and influencing factors of terminal malignant tumor patients,and to provide a basis for optimizing hospice care.Methods A convenience sampling method was employed to select 485 patients with terminal malignant tumors from the oncology departments of two tertiary,class-A hospitals in Sichuan Province between September 2023 and November 2024.Data on demographic characteristics,decision-making-related information,preferences regarding resuscitation,and cultural belief levels were collected using a structured questionnaire.Results In critical situations,39.4%of patients opted for active rescue,33.6%chose to forgo treatment,and 27.0%preferred to maintain current treatment.Acceptance rates for nine specific interventions ranged from 28.9%to 61.2%.Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that stronger cultural beliefs,younger age,having a spouse,being the primary caregiver,employee medical insurance coverage,and use of invasive tubes were significantly associated with a tendency toward active or continued treatment(P<0.05).Prioritizing quality of life or concerns about economic burden were significantly associated with the decision to forgo life-sustaining interventions(P<0.05).Conclusions Patients with terminal malignant tumors exhibit diverse preferences regarding end-of-life resuscitation,significantly shaped by cultural beliefs,demographic factors,and family support.Clinicians should integrate patients'values,cultural backgrounds,and individual needs to provide tiered decision-making support,thereby facilitating medically appropriate and value-concordant care choices.

Objective:To investigate changes of CD4+T/CD8+T ratio in children with mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(MPP)at different ages and to predict outcome.Methods:A total of 150 children aged 1～12 with MPP admitted to The Second People's Hospital of Hefei from March 2021 to September 2023 were selected as study group,and were divided into improved group(n=112)and deteriorated group(n=38)according to clinical outcomes after treatment.According to age,patients were divided into in-fant group(≤3 years old)38 cases,preschool group(4～6 years old)57 cases,school age group(>6 years old)55 cases.General information,biochemical test indicators and other related data were collected,CD4+T/CD8+T was calculated,and statistical analysis was performed by SPSS23.0 software.Through univariate and multifactor Logistics regression analysis,changes of CD4+T/CD8+T and other indicators in MPP children of different ages were compared,and independent factors affecting outcome of MPP children were screened.ROC curve was used to analyze efficacy of selected independent influencing factors in predicting outcome of MPP children of different ages.Log-binomial model was used to analyze risk effect of age on CD4+T/CD8+T and different outcomes in MPP children.Dose-response relationship between CD4+T/CD8+T and risk of disease progression in MPP children was analyzed by Logistic regression model combined with restricted cubic spline(RCS)model.P<0.05 was statistically significant.Results:CRP,IgA,IgG,IgM and CD8+T were the highest in infant group,followed by preschool group,the lowest in school-age group(P<0.05),CD4+T and CD4+T/CD8+T were the lowest in infant group,followed by preschool group,and the highest in school-age group(P<0.05).MPP children with≤3 years old accounted for the lowest proportion of improvement(18.76%)and the worst improvement,followed by MPP children with 4～6 years old,MPP children with>6 years old accounted for the highest proportion of improvement(43.75%),and the best im-provement(P<0.001).Improvement of children with disease course≤7 days was significantly better than disease course>7 days(P<0.001).CRP,DD,ESR,LDH,IgA,IgG,IgM and CD8+T levels in children with MPP deterioration were significantly higher than children with MPP improvement(P<0.001),and CD4+T and CD4+T/CD8+T levels were significantly lower than children with MPP im-provement(P<0.001).Multi-factor Logistics regression analysis showed that age,IgA,IgG,IgM and CD4+T/CD8+T were independent influencing factors for outcome of MPP children(P<0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that when cut-off value was 1.50,AUC of CD4+T/CD8+T to predict outcome of MPP children was 0.86(95%CI:0.75～0.94),sensitivity and specificity were 83.76%and 84.60%,respectively.Log-binomial model showed that MPP children with CD4+T/CD8+T≤1.50%had the highest risk of worsening out-come.Risk scores before and after adjustment were 2.05(1.41～3.75),2.07(1.46～3.88)and 2.14(1.50～4.02)times of those in im-provement group.School-age children with CD4+T/CD8+T>1.50%had the lowest risk of worsening,and risk before and after adjust-ment was 1.07(1.00～1.87),1.13(1.04～1.98),1.18(1.07～2.01)times higher than improved group.RCS model analysis of relation-ship between CD4+T/CD8+T and different outcomes in MPP children showed that regardless of whether confounders were adjusted,CD4+T/CD8+T was negatively correlated with outcome of MPP children.Conclusion:CD4+T/CD8+T in MPP children of different ages is significantly different.CD4+T/CD8+T is the lowest in infant group,followed by preschool group,and the highest in school-age group.CD4+T/CD8+T in children with worsening MPP is significantly lower than improved MPP,and CD4+T/CD8+T is negatively correlated with outcome of MPP children,which has certain value in predicting outcome of MPP children.

Objective This study explores the clinical correlation between different low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)levels and prognosis,providing evidence-based guidance for the development of personalized lipid-lowering goals.Methods Patients who underwent elective percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)treatment at Beijing Anzhen Hospital from January 2020 to June 2023 and received lipid-lowering therapy with the addition of Evolocumab were selected.Based on the results of blood lipid rechecks 3 to 6 months after surgery,the patients were divided into five groups:low-density lipoprotein＜0.5 mmol/L,0.5 to＜1.0 mmol/L,1.0 to＜1.4 mmol/L,1.4 to＜1.8 mmol/L,and above 1.8 mmol/L.All patients were followed up for more than one year,and clinical conditions and major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)were recorded.Results A total of 1 106 patients undergoing PCI were enrolled;after propensity score matching and exclusion of patients lost to follow up,550 remained(110 per group).During 12 months of follow-up,58 patients(10.5％)experienced a MACE,with incidence rising step-wise across LDL-C categories.In multivariable Cox models adjusted for age,sex,diabetes,hypertension,baseline LDL-C,follow-up LDL-C,estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR),and left ventricular ejection fraction,the hazard ratios[HR(95％CI)]for MACE,relative to the＜0.5 mmol/L group,were 1.810(0.507-6.454,P=0.361),3.036(0.945-9.749,P=0.062),5.228(1.737-15.735,P=0.003),7.708(2.633-22.565,P＜0.001)for LDL-C levels of 0.5 to＜1.0,1.0 to＜1.4,1.4 to＜1.8 and≥ 1.8 mmol/L,respectively.A restricted cubic spline model demonstrated a significant non-linear positive association between LDL-C and MACE(P-overall≤0.001;P-non-linear=0.008).Stratified analyses by age,sex,hypertension and diabetes showed consistent HR with no significant interactions(all P＞0.05).There were no statistically significant differences among the groups in the incidence of bleeding events,elevated creatinine levels,or abnormal liver function(all P＞0.05).Conclusions In patients using PCSK9 after PCI,there is a significant positive correlation between LDL-C levels and the risk of MACE,and no correlation was observed between different LDL-C levels and the risk of adverse events such as bleeding.

Objective To develop a reminiscence therapy program with Montessori educational philosophy in treatment of elderly people with mild cognitive impairment(MCI)in nursing homes and evaluate its effect.Methods On the basis of Montessori education principles,a reminiscence therapy program was drafted through literature review and had it finalised with expert consultations and a pilot study.Between February and May 2022,70 elderly with MCI were recruited from a nursing home in Liaoning Province using convenience sampling.The recruited elderly were randomly divided into a control group(n=35)and an intervention group(n=35)using a random number table.The elderly in control group received conventional cognitive training only while the elderly in the intervention group received reminiscence therapy in addition to the conventional cognitive training.Cognitive function and ability of daily living(ADL)were compared between the two groups after a 6-week intervention.Results The elderly in intervention group demonstrated statistically significant improvements in both cognitive function and dimensions(visuospatial/executive function,naming ability,delayed recall and orientation,as well as in ADL after a 6-week intervention(all P<0.05).Conclusion The Montessori philosophy based on reminiscence therapy improves cognitive function and activities of daily living in the elderly with MCI,particularly from the perspectives of visuospatial/executive function,naming ability,delayed recall and orientation.

Objective To investigate and compare the epidemiological characteristics of common respiratory viruses among influenza-like illness(ILI)and severe acute respiratory infection(SARI)cases in Huzhou,Zhejiang Province before and after the COVID-19 pandemic,so as to provide a basis for formulating and adjusting the prevention and control strategies for viral respiratory infectious diseases.Methods ILI and SARI cases at two influenza surveillance sentinel hospitals in Huzhou and had throat swab samples collected during Nov 2017 to Feb 2020(pre-COVID-19 pandemic period)and Dec 2022 to Apr 2024(post-COVID-19 mitigation phase)were selected as the participants.Seven common viral respiratory pathogens were tested,including influenza A virus(H1N1 and H3N2 subtypes),influenza B virus(Victoria lineage,FluB),respiratory syncytial virus(RSV),rhinovirus(HRV),adenovirus(ADV),and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2(SARS-CoV-2).The positive rates of respiratory pathogens before and after the COVID-19 pandemic were compared across different age groups and different time.Results A total of 7 948 ILI samples and 2 294 SARI samples were included.The overall positive rate of ILI samples increased from 33.6%to 47.1%,primarily due to the increase in influenza and COVID-19 infections;the overall positive rate of SARI samples decreased from 31.4%to 24.8%,mainly due to the reduction in HRV and ADV infections.During the post-COVID-19 mitigation phase,SARS-CoV-2(22.1%),H3N2(12.7%),and FluB(6.0%)were the primary pathogens in ILI samples,while RSV(7.1%),H3N2(5.3%),and HRV(4.5%)dominated in SARI samples.During the post-COVID-19 mitigation phase,the influenza virus circulation period was shortened.Before the COVID-19 pandemic,RSV was mainly detected in autumn and winter,while during the post-COVID-19 mitigation phase,out-of-season RSV epidemics were observed in spring and summer.Co-infection rate in ILI cases increased significantly in the post-COVID-19 mitigation phase,predominantly consisting of co-infections of COVID-19 and influenza A virus,while co-infection rate in SARI cases showed a decline.Conclusion We found important epidemiological changes in respiratory viruses in Huzhou during the post-COVID-19 mitigation phase compared to pre-COVID-19 period,including increased positive rates of influenza and COVID-19,and disruptions to the seasonal patterns of influenza and RSV.The prevention and control strategies should be adjusted in a timely manner based on the monitoring data.
