Objective: To investigate the association of special family structure and physical activity with psychological sub health among secondary vocational school students, so as to provide reference to inform mental health promotion in the population. Methods: From September to December 2024, a convenience sample was drawn from 16 schools including 5 141 secondary vocational school students across 8 provinces (municipalities) in China (Fujian, Chongqing, Guangdong, Guangxi, Hubei, Jiangxi, Shanghai, Zhejiang). A self developed questionnaire, Multidimensional Sub health Questionnaire of Adolescents and International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form were used to investigate and evaluate basic information, family structure, psychological sub health status and physical activity. Descriptive statistics and Logistic regression analysis were performed to explore relationships of special family structures and physical activity with psychological sub health in secondary vocational school students. Results: The detection rate of psychological sub health among secondary vocational school students was 11.0%. The reporting rates for secondary vocational school students who lost their father or lost their mother, whose parents divorced, whose parents remarried, and those from special family structures were 2.8%, 0.8%, 11.8%, 3.9%, and 14.7%, respectively. Moreover, the detection rates of psychological sub health and its sub dimensions significantly differed among secondary vocational school students grouped by family type (divorced parental families, remarried parental families and special family structures)( χ 2=5.90-22.67, all P <0.05). Binary Logistic regression indicated that maternal bereavement was associated with a higher risk of conduct problems [ AOR ( 95% CI )= 2.90(1.15-7.33)], and parental divorce was associated with a higher risk of psychological sub health ( AOR= 2.71 , 95%CI =1.04- 7.06 ) among secondary vocational school students (both P <0.05). Interaction analysis showed that both students with a special family structure and insufficient physical activity [ AOR (95% CI )=1.99(1.44-2.75)] and those with a non-special family structure and insufficient physical activity [ AOR (95% CI )=1.81(1.48-2.22)] were associated with increased risks of psychological sub health among secondary vocational school students (both P <0.01). Conclusion Special family structure and physical activity are associated with psychological sub health among secondary vocational school students; early identification and assessment based interventions for those with a special family structure should be strengthened, while school based physical activity should be implemented to increase physical activity levels,thereby reducing the risk of psychological sub health.

Objective:To explore the impact of the two-way referral model on compliance and prognosis in patients with heart failure.Methods:This bidirectional cohort study enrolled chronic heart failure (CHF) patients treated at Qilu Hospital of Shandong University or designated primary hospitals between March 2018 and March 2022. Patients were categorized into two groups based on referral status: two-way referral group (participating in the referral model with≥1 follow-up visit at primary hospitals) and the core hospital group (receiving treatment and follow-up exclusively at Qilu Hospital). Baseline clinical characteristics were collected and compared between groups. Patients underwent followed-up, with primary endpoints including follow-up rate, drug (β-blockers, angiotension converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI)/angiotensin Ⅱ receptor blockers (ARB)/angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI), sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists) utilization rate and target dose achievement rate. Secondary endpoints encompassed changes from baseline in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDd), and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), plus cardiovascular mortality and heart failure rehospitalization. Generalized linear mixed models analyzed longitudinal trends in LVEF, LVEDd, and NT-proBNP levels. Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox regression evaluated LVEF recovery rates, supplemented by subgroup analyses. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify factors influencing target dose achievement rate for β-blockers and ACEI/ARB/ARNI therapies in CHF patients.Results:A total of 357 patients were enrolled, aged 53 (41, 63) years, including 256 males (71.7%). 157 patients were in the two-way referral group and 200 patients in the core hospital-treated group. Compared with the core hospital-treated group, the two-way referral group had lower baseline LVEF (28 (22, 34)% vs. 31 (23, 36)%, P=0.021) and systolic blood pressure (116 (104, 125) mmHg vs. 121 (109, 134) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), P=0.010). The 12-month follow-up rate of the two-way referral group was higher than the core hospital-treated group (73.8% vs. 56.0%, P=0.004). No significant between-group differences were observed in drug utilization rate of β-blockers, ACEI/ARB/ARNI, or sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors during follow-up (all P>0.05), while mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists use showed a declining trend in both groups. Although the core hospital-treated group had higher target dose achievement rates for β-blockers (65.4% vs. 49.3%, P=0.042) and ACEI/ARB/ARNI (79.8% vs. 65.8%, P=0.046) than the two-way referral group, multivariate logistic regression indicated that the two-way referral model was not a negative predictor for these outcomes (all P>0.05). Both groups showed improved NT-proBNP, LVEDd, and LVEF from baseline (all P<0.001) with no significant difference in trends between groups (all P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the composite incidence (7.6% vs. 6.5%, P=0.674) and cumulative incidence (log-rank P=0.684) of cardiovascular death and heart failure rehospitalization at 12 months between two groups. Conclusion:The two-way referral model demonstrates advantages in improving medication adherence, drug utilization rates, and targetdoseachievement rates among CHF patients. This model not only promotes cardiac functional recovery but also reduces risks of cardiovascular mortality and heart failure rehospitalization, achieving comparable therapeutic and management outcomes to those observed in core hospital-treated patients.

Objective:To investigate the potential utility of the lymphocyte to monocyte ratio (LMR) and its modified index, albumin-LMR product, as predictive biomarkers for disease activity and presence of lupus nephritis in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).Methods:A total of 264 patients with newly diagnosed SLE who were treated at Henan Provincial People′s Hospital between December 2016 and September 2022 were included in this study. Their clinical data were subsequently collected for analysis. Patients were classified into non-active disease group (SLEDAI<5, n=55) and active disease group(SLEDAI≥5, n=209) based on the SLE SLEDAI. The Mann-Whitney U test was employed to compare the differences in clinical parameter levels, LMR and albumin-LMR product between the two groups. Additionally, the active disease group was further stratified into mild(SLEDAI 5~9, n=86), moderate(SLEDAI 10~14, n=96) and severe (SLEDAI≥15, n=27) subgroups to assess differences in LMR and albumin-LMR product. Further more patients were stratified into two groups based on renal involvement: those without lupus nephritis(non-LN) and those with lupus nephritis (LN). For non-parametric comparisons, the Mann-Whitney U test was used for intergroup comparisons between two groups, while the Kruskal-Wallis H test was applied for comparisons among three groups. If the Kruskal-Wallis H test revealed statistically significant differences ( P<0.05), pairwise comparisons were performed using the Mann-Whitney U test, and the significance level was adjusted using the Bonferroni method to account for multiple testing.Correlations between LMR, albumin-LMR product, and disease activity indicators were analyzed using Spearman′s correlation. The diagnostic value of LMR and albumin-LMR product for SLE activity was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Results:Both LMR and albumin-LMR product were significantly lower in active disease group compared to the non-active group {LMR:3.56 (2.15, 5.00) vs. 5.68 (3.89, 7.00); albumin-LMR product [93.21 (59.50, 143.98)g/L] vs. [187.89 (137.67, 260.90)]g/L, Z=-5.68, -7.05, P<0.001 for all}. Further subgroup analysis revealed that LMR and albumin-LMR product levels in severe, moderate, and mild active disease were also significantly decreased compared to the non-active disease group {LMR:3.83(1.78, 5.09)、3.09(2.06, 4.90)、3.65(2.45, 5.03) vs. 5.68(3.89, 7.00); albumin-LMR product: [95.69(66.57, 121.61)]g/L、[79.82(49.02, 126.91)]g/L、[104.73(69.21, 169.01)]g/L vs. [187.89(137.67, 260.90)]g/L, H=34.27, 58.29, P<0.001 for all}. A significant disparity in the levels of LMR and albumin-LMR product was detected between the non-LN and LN, with statistical significance ( Z=-3.44, P=0.001 and Z=-7.06, P<0.001). Correlation analysis indicated that LMR negatively correlated with SLEDAI( r=-0.31), urea( r=-0.29), creatinine ( r=-0.28) and 24-hour urinary protein level ( r=-0.27), all P<0.001, with no significant correlation to complement C3 or C4. Albumin-LMR product showed stronger negative correlations with SLEDAI ( r=-0.44), urea ( r=-0.40), creatinine ( r=-0.37), and 24-hour urinary protein ( r=-0.55), all P<0.001, and a positive correlation with complement C3 ( r=0.18, P=0.004). The areas under the ROC curves for LMR and LMR combined with complement C3 were 0.749 and 0.795, respectively, while for albumin-LMR product and its combination with complement C3, they were 0.809 and 0.833, indicating superior diagnostic efficacy for the modified albumin-LMR product. Conclusion:LMR and albumin-LMR product levels are significantly associated with SLE disease activity and may serve as potential biomarkers for assessing SLE activity and the degree of lupus nephritis.

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), characterized by impaired alveolarization and dysregulated vascularization, is a severe health burden for neonates worldwide. Hyperoxia induced acute lung injury is a major contributor to the progression and deterioration of BPD. An increasing number of animal studies have revealed that human umbilical cord blood derived mononuclear cells (hUCB-MNCs) infusion significantly attenuated the hyperoxia-induced acute lung injury through regeneration capacity. Currently, clinical application requires determination of the optimal dose and adjustment to good manufacturing practices. In this work, we comprehensively investigated the optimal dose of hUCB-MNCs in alleviating hyperoxia-induced lung injury in neonatal C57BL6/J mice. Mice with hyperoxia exposure were implanted with low (3×104cells/kg, Dl), middle (3×105 cells/kg, Dm) and high (3×106 cells/kg, Dh) dose of hUCB-MNCs at postnatal day 7. Three weeks after graft, characteristics exhibited in lungs including morphology, function and cytokine expression were thoroughly analyzed. Implantation of hUCB-MNCs sharply reverted the impaired lung architecture induced by hyperoxia exposure dose dependently as evidenced by indicated parameters. Attenuated expression of IL-1β concomitant with enhanced expression of IL-10 and IL-2 were shown in Dh inoculated groups, where Dl and Dm failed to restore the level of IL-10, IL-1β and IL-2. Significantly re-escalated marker of angiogenic marker VEGFA, CD31 in lung tissue were uniquely observed in Dh group. Mechanistically, our study revealed the appropriate dose of intravenous infusion of hUCB-MNCs in alleviating hyperoxia-induced lung injury through modulating reactive oxygen species response in neonatal mice.Therefore, a tight control of hUCB-MNCs density or levels of CB-MNC related products is of great significance.

This article presents a case of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in a pregnant woman caused by coronary artery dissection. The 41-year-old patient had undergone cardiac valve surgery at the age of 1 and had no risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes, smoking, alcohol use, or a family history of coronary artery disease. At 31 +1 weeks of gestation, she experienced sudden chest pain for 4 hours and was emergently referred to Peking University First Hospital on June 1, 2021. Electrocardiogram revealed ST-segment elevation in leads I, aVL, and V 2 to V 6. Biochemical assays showed elevated levels of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I and creatine kinase-MB. Echocardiography indicated segmental ventricular wall motion abnormalities (apical) and reduced left ventricular function, confirming the diagnosis of acute anterior wall STEMI. The patient promptly underwent emergency coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention and confirmed coronary artery dissection. Postoperative care included antiplatelet, anticoagulation, and supportive treatment. At 34 +3 weeks of gestation, with the condition of acute anterior wall STEMI being relatively stable, a cesarean section was successfully performed. Regular cardiology follow-ups were scheduled postpartum, and cardiac function was normal in two years after discharge.

Background Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) to sodium dimercaptosulphonate (DMPS) mercury removal treatment have been reported in occupational mercury poisoning. In recent years, the number of cases of mercury poisoning due to mercury-containing cosmetics has been increasing, and ADRs to the use of DMPS are common in clinical practice. Objective To investigate the occurrence of ADRs and the influencing factors in patients with chronic mercury poisoning and mercury exposure treated with DMPS for mercury removal. Methods Patients treated with DMPS due to mercury poisoning at the Occupational Disease Department of Nanjing Prevention and Treatment Center for Occupational Diseases from June 2017 to December 2023 were included in the study. Information on demographics, baseline characteristics, and treatment regimens was collected at admission. Information on secondhand smoke, place of residence, and blood groups not collected at admission was collected in follow-up. The patients were divided into two groups according to whether ADRs occurred after the use of DMPS and were compared for clinical characteristics, and the influencing factors related to the occurrence of ADRs after DMPS treatment were analyzed by binary logistic regression. Results A total of 72 patients were enrolled in the study, of which 26 reported ADRs during mercury removal. A total of 29 ADRs occurred, mainly rash in 11 cases (37.9%), fever in 5 cases (17.2%), and nausea in 4 cases (13.8%). Most ADRs occurred in the second course (7 cases, 26.9%) and the third course (9 cases, 34.6%). Of the 22 non-menopausal women who experienced ADRs, 13 (59.1%) used DMPS in the week prior to menstruation. The logistic regression analysis showed that smoking (OR=27.911, 95%CI: 2.835, 725.809) and blood type O (OR=6.885, 95%CI: 2.014, 26.896) were associated with elevated occurrence of ADRs after DMPS treatment. Conclusions The probability of ADRs after DMPS treatment is not low, but mild presentations are predominant and resolved with immediate treatment, with a favourable prognosis. The O blood group, smoking individuals, and female patients using DMPS one week before menstruation may be more prone to ADRs.
