Objective:
To explore the influence of group psychological counseling on the mental health of children with mother s authoritarian parenting.
Methods:
From November 2022 to February 2023, 76 students from grades 4 to 6 whose mother showed authoritarian parenting style, while fathers adopted no authoritative, authoritarian or democratic parenting style and who scored ≥65 on the total MHT were selected using the Parenting Style Questionnaire (PBI) and the Mental Health Diagnostic Test (MHT). All the participants and their mothers were randomly assigned to the intervention and control groups. Before and after the intervention, participants filled out questionnaires on parental bonding instrument and mental health test. Control group: regular delivery of mental health education information, 2 times per week, for 8 weeks, without any other intervention. Intervention group: group counseling activities were conducted once a week. Each intervention lasted 1.5-2 hours and lasts for 8 weeks. Before and after the intervention, participants filled in the family parenting style and mental health screening questionnaires.
Results:
After the intervention, compared with the control group, students in the intervention group showed a significant decrease in the total scale score of the MHT, learning anxiety, social anxiety, allergic tendency, physical symptoms, fear tendency, and impulsive tendency ( t=-0.43, -1.04 , -0.81, P >0.05). After intervention, the intervention group students showed a significant decrease in psychological diagnosis test scores, learning anxiety, anxiety towards others, allergic tendencies, physical symptoms, phobic tendencies, and impulsive tendencies compared to the control group students ( t=-20.00, -5.06, -2.09, -3.36, -6.15, -4.76, -5.15, P <0.05).
Conclusion
Rregular group psychological counseling can effectively improve the academic anxiety, social anxiety, allergic tendencies, physical symptoms, fearful and impulsive tendencies of students whose mothers with authoritarian parenting style, and greatly improve their mental health.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the effects of C3435T polymorphism in ABCB1 gene on lipid-lowering efficacy of statins. METHODS Retrieved from PubMed, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, CNKI and VIP, the cohort studies on the use of statins were collected from the inception to November 1, 2023. After literature screening, data extraction and quality evaluation, meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.4 software. RESULTS A total of 11 literature involving 1 575 patients were included. The results showed that under the dominant genetic model, the reduction of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) [MD=-1.87, 95%CI (-3.62, -0.13), P=0.04], total cholesterol (TC) [MD=-1.42, 95%CI (-2.80, -0.04), P=0.04] in patients with CT+TT genotype was significantly higher than CC genotype. There was no significant difference in the increase of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) [MD=-0.65, 95%CI (-2.48, 1.18), P=0.49] or the decrease of triglyceride (TG) [MD=-0.05, 95%CI (-2.94, 2.84), P=0.97] between patients with CT+TT genotype and CC genotype. Under the recessive genetic model, the reduction of TC [MD=2.26, 95%CI (0.97, 3.56), P=0.000 6] and the increase of HDL-C [MD=2.38, 95%CI (0.42, 4.35), P=0.02] in patients with TT genotype were significantly higher than CC+ CT genotype. There was no significant difference in the reduction of LDL-C [MD=1.53, 95%CI (-0.10, 3.15), P=0.07] or TG [MD=0.06, 95%CI (-2.98, 3.10), P=0.97] between CC+CT genotype and TT genotype. Under the additive genetic model, the reduction of TC [MD=2.98, 95%CI (1.27, 4.69), P=0.000 6] and LDL-C [MD=2.84, 95%CI (0.67, 5.01), P=0.01] in patients with TT genotype were significantly higher than CC genotype. There was no significant difference in the increase of HDL-C [MD=2.40, 95%CI (-0.17, 4.97), P=0.07] or the decrease of TG [MD=0.97, 95%CI (-2.93, 4.87), P=0.63] between patients with TT genotype and CC genotype. CONCLUSIONS The reduction of LDL-C and TC in patients with dyslipidemia treated with statins may be related to the heterozygous and homozygous mutation of C3435T in ABCB1 gene, and the reduction of LDL-C and TC in patients with CT or TT genotype is more obvious, compared with patients with CC genotype. The elevation of HDL-C may be related to homozygous mutation, and the effect of HDL-C elevation may be more obvious in patients with TT genotype, compared with CC+CT genotype. However, the change of TG may not be related to the C3435T polymorphism in ABCB1 gene.

β2-adrenergic receptor (β2-AR) agonists are widely used as first-line drugs in the treatment of bronchial asthma (hereinafter referred to as “asthma”), but long-term use can lead to β2-AR desensitization and reduce its clinical efficacy, resulting in poor symptom control of some asthma patients. The mechanism of β2-AR desensitization induced by β2-AR agonists mainly includes slow hyposensitization (related to the decrease of β2-AR density in airway mucosa) and rapid hyposensitization (related to the mechanism of stimulatory G protein decoupling). Cyclic adenosine monophosphate(cAMP)-protein kinase A and cAMP- exchange protein activated by cAMP signaling pathways are closely related to β2-AR desensitization. Glucocorticoids, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma agonists, ASM-024, Chinese medicine monotherapies and formulations, when combined with β2-AR agonists, can improve the sensitivity of β2-AR, so as to better control asthma symptoms.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between collateral circulation and infarct pattern and outcome in acute ischemic stroke patients with anterior circulation intracranial atherosclerosis.Methods:Acute ischemic stroke patients with anterior circulation intracranial atherosclerotic severe stenosis or occlusion admitted to the Department of Neurology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical College from September 2018 to March 2020 were included prospectively. According to diffusion-weighted imaging, the infarct patterns were divided into perforator pattern, territorial pattern, watershed pattern, and mixed pattern. At 90 d after onset, the modified Rankin Scale was used to evaluate the outcome. 0-2 was defined as good outcome, and >2 was defined as poor outcome. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent influencing factors of clinical outcome. Results:A total of 89 patients were enrolled, 50 (56.2%) had good collateral circulation and 39 (43.8%) had poor collateral circulation. The distribution patterns of infarct: 22 patients (24.7%) were perforator pattern, 26 (29.2%) were territorial pattern, 17 (19.1%) were watershed pattern, and 24 (30.0%) were mixed pattern. The proportion of patients with good collateral circulation was 81.8%, 65.4%, 29.4% and 41.7%, respectively in the perforator pattern group, territorial pattern group, watershed pattern group, and mixed pattern group. Good collateral circulation was more common in the perforator pattern group, and poor collateral circulation was more common in the watershed pattern group. At 90 d after onset, 53 patients (59.6%) had a good outcome and 36 (40.4%) had a poor outcome. The baseline homocysteine level in the good outcome group was significantly lower than that in the poor outcome group (17.91±4.62 μmol/L vs. 20.35±4.67 μmol/L; t=2.436, P=0.017), and the proportion of patients with good collateral circulation was significantly higher than that of patients with poor outcome (73.6% vs. 30.6%; χ2=16.124, P<0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that higher homocysteine level was an independent risk factor for poor outcome (odds ratio 1.174, 95% confidence interval 1.061-1.298; P=0.002) and good collateral circulation was an independent protective factor for good outcome (odds ratio 0.095, 95% confidence interval 0.038-0.239; P<0.001). Conclusions:Good collateral circulation was more common in patients with perforator pattern, and poor collateral circulation was more common in patients with watershed pattern. Good collateral circulation was independently associated with the good clinical outcome in acute ischemic stroke patients with anterior circulation intracranial atherosclerosis.

Objective:To investigate the changes of T-lymphocyte subsets, T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain molecule-1 (TIM-1) and TIM-3 levels, and cytokines in the peripheral blood of patients with active tuberculosis.Methods:From December 2017 to December 2018, 50 tuberculosis patients and 50 cured tuberculosis patients in Zhejiang Hospital of Integrated Chinese and Western Medicine were selected as the tuberculosis group and cured tuberculosis group, respectively. Fifty healthy individuals in the same period were selected as the control group. Flow cytometry was used to detect the T-lymphocyte subsets in the peripheral blood. The mRNA levels of TIM-1, TIM-3, interferon(IFN)-γ and interleukin(IL)-4 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reacticn (PCR). T test was used for statistical analysis. Results:The ratio of CD4 + /CD8 + T lymphocytes in the tuberculosis group (1.21±0.50) decreased significantly, comparing with those in the cured tuberculosis group (1.88±0.62) and the control group (1.92±0.82). The differences were statistically significant ( t=2.148 and 2.207, respectively, both P<0.05). The mRNA levels of TIM-1, TIM-3 and IL-4 in PBMC in the tuberculosis group were 2.16±0.37, 1.59±0.36 and 1.52±0.69, respectively, which were all higher than those in the cured tuberculosis group (1.60±1.23, 1.01±0.52 and 0.91±0.36, respectively) and the healthy control group (1.40±0.27, 0.92±0.34 and 0.79±0.42, respectively). All of these differences were statistically significant ( t=14.120, 11.440, 17.130, 12.090, 12.050 and 17.030, respectively, all P<0.05). However, the IFN-γ mRNA level (0.43±0.11) was lower than that in the cured tuberculosis group (1.74±0.72) and the control group (1.82±1.17), and the differences were both statistically significant ( t=13.880 and 11.430, respectively, both P<0.05). Conclusion:The immune dysfunction in patients with active tuberculosis may be related to the low ratio of CD4 + /CD8 + T lymphocytes, the increased expressions of TIM-1 and TIM-3, and the imbalance of helper T lymphocyte (Th)1/Th2 cytokines.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of senile neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) inpatients in south China, especially in Guangdong province, and explore the influencing factors for their medical expenses.Methods:The medical records of 7231 patients with NDDs≥65 years were collected in the electronic health database of our hospital from January 2010 to December 2019, including gender, age, admission ways, chief complaints, length of hospital stays and medical expenses. On the basis of median of the medical expenses (21 345 yuan) of these patients, they were divided into low cost (<21 345 yuan) group and high cost (≥21 345 yuan) group. Univariate Logistic analysis and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were conducted to screen the influencing factors for medical expenses and the independent influencing factors.Results:(1) The main age group of geriatric inpatients with NDDs were 70-79 years (40.96%); the admission source was mainly outpatient (56.70%), and length of hospital stays of a large percent of patients (44.50%) were 8-14 d. (2) From 2010 to 2019, the number of hospitalized geriatric patients with NDDs showed an increasing trend year by year, the overall trend of length of hospital stays was shortened, and the medical expenses showed gradual increase; the causes of hospitalization, percentages of patients caused by infection, abnormal blood pressure and water-electrolyte metabolism disturbances showed decreased trend, percentages of patients caused by heart diseases, cerebrovascular accidents and mental-psychological diseases showed increased trend, and the proportions of patients caused by fracture/trauma/wound injuries were generally stable. The proportion of patients returning home and mortality rate after hospital discharge were declined, and the proportion of patients returning to other medical or community institutions was increased. (3) Living in ICU, length of hospital stays, diabetes, nosocomial infection, chronic kidney disease, urinary tract infection, tumble, body mass index, and anticholinergic drugs were independent risk factors influencing the medical expenses ( P<0.05). Conclusions:An aging trend is noted in patients with NDDs; the number of hospitalized patients and medical expenses increase year by year, and the length of hospital stays gradually decreases. In view of the many factors that influence the medical expenses of this disease, it is suggested to develop the corresponding standardized treatment plan for the main influencing factors in clinical practice.
