Objective:To explore the influence of value orientation brief therapy (VBT) on anxiety and depression symptoms, social function, coping style and self-acceptance level of major depressive disorder adolescents with anxious distress.Methods:From June 2021 to June 2022, seventy adolescent major depressive disorder patients with anxious distress were included in the study, who were randomly divided into study group(35 people, 31 people completed)and control group (35 people, 30 people completed). The study group was given routine treatment combined with VBT, while the control group was given routine treatment only. Before and after treatment, Hamilton anxiety scale(HAMA), Hamilton depression scale (HAMD), social disability screening schedule (SDSS), coping style questionnaire(CSQ) and self-acceptance questionnaire (SAQ) were used to evaluate the two groups, and SPSS 26.0 software was used to statistically analyze the data of the two groups. Paired sample t-test was used for intra-group comparison, and independent sample t-test was used for inter-group comparison. Results:After 6 weeks of treatment, the scores of HAMA((6.03±3.58) vs (14.03±7.06), t=5.55, P<0.01), HAMD((8.77±5.52 ) vs (16.50±7.59), t=4.56, P<0.01)and SDSS((4.23±1.50) vs (6.63±0.96), t=7.43, P<0.01)in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group, the differences were statistically significant. The scores of self-acceptance((19.23±1.33) vs (13.47±1.46), t=-16.12, P<0.01)and self-evaluation ((19.87±2.87) vs (12.77±1.68), t=-11.75, P<0.01) in the SAQ scale and the scores of problem-solving((8.71±2.30) vs (6.23±3.45), t=3.31, P<0.05) and rationalization ((6.20±3.11) vs (4.67±2.43), t=2.13, P<0.05) in the CSQ questionnaire were significantly higher than those in the control group, the differences were statistically significant. The total effective rate of the study group(90.3%(28/31) vs 66.7%(20/30), χ2=5.09, P<0.05) was significantly higher than that of the control group, the difference was statistically significant. Conclusion:The effect of routine treatment combined with VBT is better, which can effectively improve anxiety and depression symptoms, social function and coping style, and enhance self-acceptance and self-evaluation in adolescent major depressive disorder patients, which is worthy of clinical application.

Objective:To explore the difference of inflammatory factor imbalance between adolescent and adult patients with depression.Methods:A total of 30 adolescent and 30 adult patients with depression, and 30 adolescent and 30 adult healthy controls were included from January 2022 to August 2023. Interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-17 (IL-17), transforming growth factor-beta1(TGF-β1), interleukin-10(IL-10) and Maresin-1(MaR1) level were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. 24-item Hamilton depression scale (HAMD-24) was used to assess the severity of depression in all depressed patients. SPSS 26.0 statistical software was used for t-test, covariance analysis, Spearman analysis and multivariate binary logistic regression, and the predictive value of selected inflammatory factors in depression was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve. Results:(1)In adolescent group, the levels of IL-6 ((64.000±38.632) pg/mL), IL-17((239.132±49.757) pg/mL), and TGF-β1((737.267±328.447)pg/mL) in patients with depression were higher than those in control group((32.396±16.330)pg/mL, (214.954±42.326)pg/mL, (454.542±297.194)pg/mL, all P<0.05), while the level of MaR1((21 381.301±3 946.011)pg/mL) was significantly lower than that in control group((30 130.138±10 278.999)pg/mL)( P<0.001). The level of IL-17 was positively correlated with the total score of HAMD-24 ( r=0.429) and the course of disease ( r=0.571), the level of IL-10 was negatively correlated with body weight factor score ( r=-0.384), and the levels of TGF-β1 was negatively correlated with anxiety/somatization factor score ( r=-0.449)(all P<0.05) in adolescent patients with depression.MaR1( B=0.000 1, OR=0.999 8, AUC=0.794, P<0.05) was an independent risk factor for adolescents depression.(2)In adult depression group, the levels of IL-6, IL-17, IL-10, TGF-β1 and MaR1 were higher than those in adult control group(all P<0.05). The level of TGF-β1 in adult depression group was negatively correlated with the total score of HAMD-24 ( r=-0.427), the score of anxiety/somatization factor ( r=-0.368), the score of blocking factor ( r=-0.405), and the score of hopelessness factor ( r=-0.398).The level of MaR1 was positively correlated with the age of onset of disease ( r=0.425)(all P<0.05) in adult patients with depression.MaR1( B=0.000 4, OR=1.000 3, AUC=0.874, P<0.001) and IL-6( B=0.040, OR=1.040 7, AUC=0.779, P<0.05) were independent risk factors for adult depression.The AUC of IL-6 combined with MaR1 was 0.938. Conclusion:There are differences in the underlying mechanism of immune imbalance between adolescent and adult patients with depression.MaR1 may be a diagnostic biomarker for depression in adolescents and adults.

AIM:To characterize the effect of estradiol on proliferation,differentiation and extracellular matrix(ECM) accumulation in stromal cells through regulation of BPH-1 paracrine.METHODS:BPH-1 cells were stimulated with different concentrations of estradiol.Conditioned media(CM) were harvested and their effects on stromal cell cultures were tested.Cell proliferation was determined by MTT assay.mRNA of smoothelin,fibronectin,collagen Ⅳ and transforming growth factor ?1(TGF-?1) were analyzed by real-time RT-PCR.Western blotting was used to determine smooth muscle myosin heavy chain(SMMHC).ELISA and radioimmunoassay were respectively used to measure fibronectin,TGF-?1 and collagen Ⅳ protein expressions.RESULTS:Estrodiol stimulated the expression and secretion of TGF-?1 in BPH-1 cells.The proliferation of stromal cells increased when they were cultured with CM harvested from estrogen treated BPH-1 cells.The mRNA levels of collagen Ⅳ and smoothelin increased in stromal cells treated with CM from BPH-1 cells.The results of radioimmunoassay also showed that the collagen Ⅳ protein level up-regulated in the supernatants and cell extracts of CM-treated stromal cells.A neutralizing antibody to TGF-?1 inhibited the stimulation of collagen Ⅳ and SMMHC by BPH-1 CM.The expression of fibronectin was only marginally changed in stromal cells cultured in the presence of BPH-1 CM.CONCLUSION:The BPH-1 cells increase ECM accumulation and differentiation of stromal cells through TGF-?1.Estradiol stimulate differentiation of stromal cells by induction of TGF-?1 expression.Estradiol stimulate proliferation by influencing the factors secreted from prostatic epithelial cells.
