BackgroundThe adolescent mood disorders become more prevalent, imposing progressively greater perceived and actual caregiving burdens on caregivers, while the current health education resources, delivery formats and training programs remain insufficient in addressing their needs. ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of structured health education on the caregiver burden associated with adolescent mood disorders, thereby informing evidence-based strategies for alleviating the burden. MethodsA total of 195 caregivers of adolescent inpatients with mood disorders admitted to a tertiary general hospital in Mianyang from June 1, 2020 to July 31, 2022 were consecutively enrolled and randomly assigned to either the research group (n=99) or the control group (n=96) using random number table method. Both groups received routine health education. In addition, the research group participated in a structured health education program comprising three modules covering disease knowledge, medication management, coping with family stress, and guidance for daily living. Upon admission, baseline information regarding both caregivers and adolescent inpatients was collected though a self-administered questionnaire. Caregiver Strain Index (CSI) was administered to assess caregiver burden at admission, discharge, and 1, 3 and 6 months post-discharge. A self-designed health education feedback questionnaire was administered on the day of discharge to evaluate caregivers' feedback on the health education. At 6 months post-discharge, data on any hospital readmission were collected. ResultsUltimately, 85 caregivers (85.86%) in the research group and 84 caregivers (87.50%) in the control group completed the study. Generalized estimating equation analysis revealed significant time effects and group-by-time interaction effects on CSI scores between the two groups (Wald χ²=790.347, 10.047, P<0.05 or 0.01). There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of access to disease information, trust preference and core information needs (P>0.05). Additionally, caregivers in the research group reported significantly better understanding of the disease-related knowledge and higher ratings on the effectiveness of health education when compared to the control group, with statistically significant differences (P<0.01). ConclusionIn contrast to routine health education, structured health education may help alleviate caregiving burden among caregivers of adolescents with mood disorders.[Funded by Sichuan Medical Association Project (number, Q190004)]

Objective:To develop an efficient and robust method based on three dimensional facial landmarks for evaluating chin region asymmetry at the soft tissue level and to compare it with the tradi-tional mirror-overlap analysis method in order to test its availability.Methods:Standard symmetrical face was used for mental tubercle coordinate transformation so as to filter soft tissue three dimensional spatial angle and construct corresponding three dimensional spatial angle wireframe template.Ten patients aged 12-32 years with clinical chin region asymmetry diagnosis at the Department of Orthodontics of Peking University Hospital of Stomatology from November 2020 to November 2021 were randomly selected.Three dimensional soft tissue face scan data of the patients were collected by three dimensional face scanner and the landmark points were automatically determined by the Meshmonk non-rigid registration algorithm pro-gram,and in this way,the asymmetric three dimensional spatial angle wireframe template and corre-sponding spatial angle parameters were generated.Mirror-overlap analysis of face scan data was also per-formed in Geomagic Studio 2015 software and deviation color maps were generated.This study took mirror-overlap analysis as the gold standard method,the response rate of chin region asymmetry was eva-luated by the outcomes of the mirror-overlap analysis and three dimensional spatial angle wireframe tem-plate analysis.Results:Nine three dimensional spatial angle indicators were selected through coordinate transformation,and the response rate was calculated using mirror-overlap analysis as the gold standard method.Among these ten selected patients,the response rate of the total chin region asymmetry was 90%(9/10).Using the deviation value of mirror-overlap analysis as a reference,the response rate of chin region asymmetry in the X dimension was 86%,the response rate of chin region asymmetry in the Y dimension was 89%,and the response rate of chin region asymmetry in the Z dimension was 100%.Conclusion:The three dimensional soft tissue spatial angle wireframe template proposed in this study has some feasibility in evaluating chin region asymmetry at the soft tissue level,and its ability to recognize asymmetry separately in the three dimensional direction is better than the mirror-overlap analysis method,and the indicators recognition rate still needs to be further improved.
