Objective:A single,center,prospective,randomized controlled study was conducted,to explore the impact of combined intervention of mindfulness based stress reduction therapy and cognitive behavioral on the psychological state and coping styles of maintenance hemodialysis(MHD)patients.Methods:This study adopted a randomized controlled trial design,120 MHD patients who were treated in our hospital from January 2021 to December 2023 were selected,the patients were divided into two groups by random number table:control group(n=60,conventional clinical interventions)and observation group(n=60,mindfulness based stress reduction therapy combined with cognitive behavioral intervention).The coping styles,psychological states,quality of life and incidence of adverse events of the two groups were compared.Result:Compared with the control group after intervention,the scores of Hamilton Depression Scale-24 items(HAMD-24),Hamilton Anxiety Scale(HAMA)score,submission and avoidance in the observation group were lower,and the scores of confrontation,physical domain,psychological domain,independence domain and social relationship domain were higher(P＜0.05).The incidence of adverse events in the observation group was lower than that in the control group(5.00％vs 16.67％,P＜0.05).Conclusion:The comprehensive psychological intervention of mindfulness based stress reduction therapy combined with cognitive behavioral intervention has significant clinical benefits for MHD patients,manifested as promoting the formation of coping styles,significantly reducing the anxiety and depression symptoms of patients,improving their quality of life,and reducing the incidence of treatment-related adverse events.

Objective To analyze the association between lifestyle and the risk of type 2 diabetes(T2D)among adult residents.Methods The data was sourced from the Shanghai Suburban Adult Cohort and Biobank.A total of 42 096 adult residents who had not developed T2D were recruited from four districts of Shanghai(Songjiang,Jiading,Minhang,and Xuhui)between 2016 and 2019.The follow-up ended on Feb 28,2023.A structured questionnaire was used to collect information on six lifestyle-related items,including smoking,alcohol consumption,BMI,waist circumference(WC),physical activity,and diet.The unhealthy lifestyle scores(UHLS)were calculated by counting the number of all the unhealthy lifestyle items,with a range of 0-6.New-onset T2D events diagnosed by physicians were obtained through the medical information system.Cox proportional hazards regression model and restricted cubic spline model were utilized to evaluate the association between unhealthy lifestyles and the risk of T2D incidence.Results About 28.1%of the participants led 4-6 unhealthy lifestyles.A total of 1 752 new T2D cases were identified during 218 513.4 person-years of follow-up.Analysis of single unhealthy lifestyle showed that abnormal WC(HR=1.5,95%CI:1.4-1.7)and abnormal BMI(HR=1.3,95%CI:1.2-1.5)were associated with an increased risk of T2D.Compared with individuals with a UHLS of 0-1,those with a UHLS of 3 and 4-6 had 30%(95%CI:1.1-1.6)and 50%(95%CI:1.2-1.8)higher risks of T2D,respectively.Each additional unhealthy lifestyle was associated with a 10%increase in T2D incidence risk(HR=1.1,95%CI:1.1-1.2).Conclusion The risk of T2D in adult residents increases with the cumulative number of unhealthy lifestyles.Adult residents with abnormal WC or BMI,or have three or more unhealthy lifestyles accumulated,will increase the risk of new-onset T2D.

Objective:To compare the effects of various exercise intervention programs on executive function in children.Methods:Experimental studies on the impact of exercise intervention on children's executive function were searched from CNKI,Wanfang,Pubmed,Web of Science,Embase and Cochrane repositories until December 2022,and the quality of included literatures was assessed with Cochrane bias risk assessment tool.The inclusion and exclusion criteria were developed according to the PICOS principle,and standardized mean difference(SMD)was used as the effect indicator.Results:A total of 43 literatures(n=5 333)were included.The results of meta-analysis showed that the ball game with single exercise time≥51 min,twice a week,intervention cycle ≥ 17 weeks was the first choice for promoting children's inhibition control(SUCRA=86.8);the ball game with a single exercise time of 10-30 min,twice a week,intervention period of 5-8 weeks was the first choice for promoting children's work-ing memory(SUCRA=75.6).The ball game with a single exercise time of 31-50 minutes,twice a week,inter-vention period of 5-8 weeks was the first choice for promoting children's cognitive flexibility(SUCRA=89.4).Conclusion:Different exercise intervention programs have different effects on executive function in children.

To explore the understanding of the target population regarding the Get Active Questionnaire for Pregnancy(GAQ-P)and the Companion Health Care Provider Consultation Form for Prenatal Physical Activity(cHCP-CF-PPA)in the Chinese context,and to verify the consistency of the Chinese version of the prenatal physical activity dual screening questionnaire with the original version in terms of language expression,27 pregnant women and 12 healthcare providers were selected from Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Fudan University during Aug and Oct 2023,and were interviewed using purposive sampling.Two rounds of cognitive interviews were conducted.The first round revealed that some respondents experienced ambiguities in understanding the meanings of 5 items in the questionnaire.Following modifications,the second round indicated that the revised items were consistent in meaning with the original questionnaire.Cognitive interviews can facilitate the adaptation of the prenatal physical activity dual screening questionnaire to the Chinese cultural context,improve the understanding of the questionnaire items among the target population,and promote the localization of the screening tool.

Objective To analyze the correlation between lesion volume,lesion mass,and maximum lesion diameter in the assessment of advanced hepatocarcinoma with lung metastasis,and to evaluate the application value of total volume response and total mass response of lung metastatic lesions in efficacy assessment.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the CT imaging data of 20 patients clinically confirmed with hepatocarcinoma and lung metastases,followed by subsequent follow-up to monitor their survival outcomes.Volume measurement software was used to measure the volume of lesions before and after treatment.We recored lesion diameter,volume measurements and CT values,calculated the mass of the lesions.The correlation between lesion volume,mass and diameter was analyzed,as well as the correlation between the change rates of volume,mass and lesion diameter.Additionally,the total volume and total mass of all lesions were calculated.The correlation between the change rates of total volume/total mass and the change rate of pulmonary lesion diameter under the RECIST 1.1 criteria,as well as the correlation with changes in patients'tumor markers,were analyzed.Furthermore,the overall volume response and overall mass response of lesions were evaluated based on changes in total volume and total mass,and their consistencies with the RECIST 1.1 criteria for efficacy evaluation were analyzed.Finally,univariate Cox regression analysis was performed to explore the association between these variables and patient survival outcomes.Results There was strong correlation between lesion volume,mass and tumor diameter(r=0.771,0.775),between the rate of change in mass and the rate of change in lesion diameter(r=0.846),and between the rates of change in total volume/total mass and the rate of change in pulmonary lesion diameter under the RECIST 1.1 criteria(r=0.800,0.896).The correlation between the rates of change in total volume/total mass and patients'tumor markers was not statistically significant.There was moderate correlation between the rate of change in volume and the rate of change in lesion diameter(r=0.692).The evaluation results of total volume response and total mass response for pulmonary lesions in advanced hepatocarcinoma with lung metastasis were generally consistent with the RECIST 1.1 criteria(Kappa=0.486,0.426).Univariate Cox regression analysis revealed that total lesion volume(P=0.047)and total lesion mass(P=0.049)were independent prognostic factors for survival outcomes.Conclusion Lesion volume,mass,and diameter,as well as their respective change rates,were found to be interrelated.Furthermore,total lesion volume and total lesion mass were identified as independent prognostic factors for survival outcomes.The total volume response and total mass response are promising evaluation methods in evaluating the efficacy of lung metastasis of hepatocarcinoma,which are different from the RECIST 1.1 evaluation criteria.
