Objective:
We used polysomnography (PSG) monitoring and neuropsychological scales to explore the characteristics of coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) patients diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in Wuhan, two years after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Methods:
A total of 42 patients in the Sleep Medicine Center were diagnosed with insomnia between December 2021 and May 2022; they were divided into the PTSD group (patients with PTSD diagnosed with insomnia after COVID-19 infection) and the non-PTSD group (patients with insomnia without PTSD). A healthy control group was simultaneously included.
Results:
The PTSD group was more significant than the non-PTSD group in partial manifestations of sleep disorders, neuropsychological clinical symptoms, and partial PSG data. Patients with different COVID-19 subtypes showed significant differences in the course of disease, sleep disorders, neuropsychological clinical symptoms, relevant scale scores, and PSG data analysis.
Conclusion
The emotional anxiety and depression of COVID-19 patients diagnosed with PTSD two years after the COVID-19 pandemic in Wuhan are more significant, and will not be self-alleviated with the passage of time. It is necessary to continue to pay attention to the PTSD symptoms and sleep psychology of COVID-19 infected patients, and take appropriate measures. Patients with severe and critical COVID-19 have more severe sleep and mental disorders, and there is a significant correlation between the duration of the disease and the severity of mental and mental disorders and sleep disorders after recovery.

Objective:To explore the effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS) combined with cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia(CBT-I)for menopausal women with insomnia.Methods:A total of 76 menopausal women with insomnia who were hospitalized from April 2020 to October 2021 were enrolled.Then they were randomly divided into observation group and control group, with 38 cases in each group.Both observation group and control group were treated with CBT-I. Meanwhile, the patients in observation group were treated with low-frequency repetitive rTMS, on the contrary, the patients in control group were treated with sham rTMS.The intervention lasted for 4 weeks.Insomnia severity index (ISI), Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) and polysomnography (PSG) were all recorded at baseline and 4 weeks after intervention, as well as adverse events. Data was analyzed by SPSS 22.0 software. Data which was normally distributed, was compared by independent t-test and paired t-test. Results:(1)The scores of ISI (16.39±4.03, 15.66±4.89) and the PSQI(14.97±2.70, 14.11±3.60) in observation group and control group at baseline were not significantly different( t=-0.716, -1.190, both P>0.05). After treatment, the ISI and PSQI scores of the observation group (10.08±3.65, 9.58±1.73)were lower than those of the control group (12.82±4.47, 12.13±2.32), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=2.926, 5.440, both P<0.05). (2) After treatment, all sleep parameters were significantly improved from baseline in observation group (all P<0.05). Sleep efficiency, wake time during sleep, and number of awakenings were significantly improved from baseline in control group(all P<0.05). Compared with control group((70.38±12.99)%, (17.39±11.75)%, (13.98±6.35)%), the observation group reported a greater statistically improvement in sleep efficiency, N3% and REM%((79.52±9.31)%, (22.80±6.05)%, (18.78±6.68)%, respectively)( t=-3.526, -2.524, -3.212, all P<0.05). Neither group had serious adverse effects. Conclusion:The rTMS combined with CBT-I can significantly improve the sleep quality in menopausal women with insomnia. With its high safety rTMS combined with CBT-I may be a recommended non-drug therapy among menopausal women with insomnia.
7.Physical activity and influencing factors of preschool children in Nanchang
Chinese Journal of School Health 2020;41(2):197-200
Objective:
To understand the present situation of physical activity and its influencing factors, and to provide a reference for improving the level of physical activity and making the intervention measures.
Methods:
The method of random stratification was used to select 4 740 pre school children aged 3-6 from 17 kindergartens in 12 counties and districts of Nanchang City, The questionnaire of physical activities of young children and the questionnaire of parents of physical activities of young children were applied to conduct a survey.
Results:
Compared with weekday PA and MVPA, preschool children’s weekends decreased, SB increased. The differences in PA, MVPA and SB on weekdays and weekends were statistically significant( P <0.01). The proportion of PA and MVPA reaching the recommended amount during the working day of preschool children were 44.9%-59.2%, 45.4%- 61.7%.The proportion reaching the recommended amount of PA and MVPA on weekends were 24.7%-27.8%, 24.5%-29.9%, and the proportion reaching the recommended amount on weekdays was higher than that on weekends.
Conclusion
There is still gap between actual amount of physical activity and the recommended amount. There are different modes of activity on weekdays and weekends, and weekends are the least active periods. Parents and teachers should pay enough attention to the establishment of "social campus family" model to improve the lack of physical activity of preschool children.

Objective To summarize and analyze the clinical features and diagnosis and treatment methods of patients with restless leg syndrome (RLS) mainly characterized by abdominal symptoms, and provide the basis for improving the correct diagnosis and treatment rate of RLS. MethodsThree patients, admitted to and completed routine laboratory examination (blood analysis, blood biochemistry, serum iron, serum ferritin, etc.), imaging, electroencephalogram, and electromyography in our hospital from August 2018 to April 2019, were chosen in our study. Polysomnography monitor was used to record the patient's sleep process for 12 h. Sleep and psychological status were evaluated by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), RLS Self-rating Depression Scale (IRLS), Epworth Sleeping Scale (ESS), RLS-quality of life (RLS-QoL), Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) and Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD).Results General examination, physical examination of nervous system, imaging, electroencephalogram, electromyography and routine biochemical examination showed no obvious abnormalities in the three patients. Serum iron decreased in two patients. Polysomnography results indicated that the sleep efficiency of the three patients was obviously decreased, the sleep latency was prolonged, the time of awakening during sleep and the times of awakenings were increased; and the sleep structure was disordered; rapid eye movement sleep was significantly reduced. Meanwhile, all three patients had moderate and severe PLM events. Excessive sleepiness in the daytime was noted; the quality of life was affected about one month, and the severity was severe; all three patients had severe anxiety without evident depression. The condition of three patients with pramipexole hydrochloric acid after treatment were significantly improved.Conclusion s RLS subtype with abdominal symptoms as chief complaint is relatively rare in clinical practice. If patients have abdominal pain and discomfort during sleep at night and can exclude organic diseases of the digestive system, the possibility of RLS should be considered. A good therapeutic effect can be obtained by using dopa receptor agonist such as pramipexole.
