Objective: To explore the current status and influencing factors of eating behaviors in adolescents, so as to provide a theoretical foundation for health promotion education among adolescents. Methods: Based on the database from Survey of Chinese Family Health Index (2021), by a random number table method, 1 065 teenagers were selected from the provincial capitals of 22 provinces and 5 autonomous regions in China, as well as 4 municipalities directly under the central government. A general characteristic questionnaire, Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Short Form of the Family Health Scale (FHS-SF), 10-item Short Version of the Big Five Personality(BFP-10), Content-based Media Exposure Scale (CM-E) and Sakata Eating Behavior Scale Short Form(EBS-SF) were used to collect information. Multivariate stepwise linear regression analysis was employed to identify and analyze related factors of eating behaviors among adolescents. Receiver operating characteristic was used to validate the predictive ability of the EBS-SF score for overweight and obesity among adolescents. Results: The average scores of BFI-10,C-ME, FHS-SF, PHQ-9 and EBS-SF were (33.08±4.64)(19.20±4.55)(38.48±6.65)(6.09±5.63)(16.75±4.36), respectively. Multivariate linear regression showed that family type (other types), agreeableness, conscientiousness, family health and depression were the main related factors of EBS-SF scores among adolescents( B =2.61,-0.42,0.20,-0.11,0.23, P <0.05).The analysis of receiver operating characteristic curve showed that the EBS-SF scores had a good ability in predicting obesity among male adolescents ( AUC= 0.73, P <0.01). Conclusions Family type, big five personality, family health,depression are the related factors of eating behaviors among adolescents. EBS-SF scores are predictive of obesity in adolescents, which would provide a new perspective for promoting healthy eating habits among adolescents.

Objective To investigate the safety, economic benefits and psychological effects of day breast conserving surgery for breast cancer. Methods The demographic data and clinical data of breast cancer patients undergoing day (day surgery group) and ward (ward surgery group) breast conserving surgeries in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from March 2020 to June 2021 were retrospectively collected; the demographic data, clinical data, medical and related transportation costs, and preoperative and postoperative BREAST-Q scores of breast cancer patients undergoing day (day surgery group) and ward (ward surgery group) breast conserving surgery in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from June 2021 to June 2022 were prospectively collected. The safety, economic benefit, and psychological satisfaction of day surgery was analyzed. Results A total of 42 women with breast cancer were included in the retrospective study and 39 women with breast cancer were included in the prospective study. In both prospective and retrospective studies, the mean age of patients in both groups were <50 years. There were only statistical differences between the two groups in the aspects of hypertension (P=0.022), neoadjuvant chemotherapy (P=0.037) and postoperative pathological estrogen receptor (P=0.033) in the prospective study. In postoperative complications, there were no statistical differences in the surgical-related complications or anesthesia-related complications between the two groups in either the prospective study or the retrospective study (P>0.05). In terms of the overall cost, we found that the day surgery group was more economical than the ward surgery group in the prospective study (P=0.002). There were no statistical differences in postoperative psychosocical well-being, sexual well-being, satisfaction with breasts or chest condition between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion It is safe and reliable to carry out breast conserving surgery in day surgery center under strict management standards, which can save medical costs and will not cause great psychological burden to patients.

Objective:To explore the effects of deep hyperthermia on chemotherapy-related adverse effects and immune-inflammatory indicators in the patients undergoing postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy for colorectal cancer.Methods:This retrospective study included 52 patients who underwent surgery for colorectal cancer at the Affiliated Zhongshan Hospital of Dalian University from September 2021 to December 2023. The patients were divided into two groups based on treatment method: the combination group ( n=29) received postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy combined with deep hyperthermia, while the chemotherapy group ( n=23) received postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy alone. Both groups were treated with the XELOX regimen (oxaliplatin + capecitabine). The degree of bone marrow suppression during treatment was assessed by analyzing peripheral blood parameters, including hemoglobin, leukocyte count, neutrophil count, and platelet count. Immune-inflammatory indicators, including complement, procalcitonin (PCT), interleukin-6 (IL-6), systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), were compared before and after treatment in both groups to evaluate the effects of deep hyperthermia on the immune-inflammatory response. Chi-square test or Fisher's exact test (two-tailed) was used to compare bone marrow suppression rates, and the immune-inflammatory indicators between the two groups were compared using t-tests or non-parametric tests, depending on whether the data conformed to a normal distribution. Results:In terms of myelosuppression, the incidence rates of moderate to severe decreases in leukocytes, neutrophils, platelets, and hemoglobin in the combination group were 31%, 31%, 21%, and 14%, respectively, compared to 52%, 61%, 48%, and 9% in the chemotherapy group. The change in PCT levels before and after treatment was significantly greater in the combination group than in the chemotherapy group ( P = 0.010). Both the combination group and the chemotherapy group showed significant reductions in SII, NLR and PLR after treatment, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). The change in NLR before and after treatment was significantly greater in the combination group than in the chemotherapy group ( P = 0.031). Conclusions:Deep hyperthermia can alleviate chemotherapy-induced adverse effects such as thrombocytopenia and neutropenia in patients undergoing postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy for colorectal cancer. It also appears to improve the inflammatory response in these patients.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate effectiveness of a novel suture method-stepwise progressive ultra-tension-reducing suture method in closing high-tension wounds on the chest, back, and limbs. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 25 patients with high-tension wounds on the chest, back, and limbs who were treated with stepwise progressive ultra-tension-reducing suture method between January 2022 and December 2022. Among the patients, there were 8 males and 17 females, with an average age of 30.5 years (range, 18-56 years). All wounds after scar or tumor resection were located on the chest, back, upper limbs, and lower limbs in 8, 6, 9, and 2 cases, respectively. The size of wounds ranged from 3.5 cm×2.8 cm to 40.0 cm×15.0 cm. All patients were advised to use topical silicone-based treatments postoperatively. The protrusion of the incision, the height of the protrusion, and the duration of the tension reduction effect were observed. The scar formation at the incision site at 6 months after operation was observed, the scar appearance was evaluated by Vancouver Scar Scale (VSS) score, and the scar width was measured. The patient's satisfaction and adverse reactions to incisions were also evaluated. RESULTS: The incisions significantly elevated, with a height of 0.3-2.5 cm, and the tension reducing effect lasted for 8.5-18.0 weeks after operation, with an average of 13.6 weeks. All incisons healed by first intention. One patient experienced transient hyperpigmentation, which resolved spontaneously. Three keloid patients showed localized redness postoperatively, and 2 experienced local recurrence, which improved significantly after treatment with triamcinolone, 5-fluorouracil injections, and laser therapy. All patients were followed up 6.0-13.5 months, with an average of 10.1 months. At 6 months after operation, all patients had linear scars, with VSS scores ranging from 1.0 to 3.5 (mean, 2.0). The width of the scars ranged from 0.5 to 3.0 mm (mean, 1.4 mm). The patients expressed satisfaction with the effectiveness. CONCLUSION The stepwise progressive ultra-tension-reducing suture method for high-tension wounds can effectively reduce the tension at the wound edges, providing a prolonged tension-reducing effect and satisfactory effectiveness.

Coronary heart disease （CHD） with atherosclerosis is a common chronic disease worldwide， and anxiety and depression are potential and crucial risk factors for adverse prognosis in CHD. Chaihu Longgu Mulitang （CLMT）， first mentioned in the Shang Han Lun （《伤寒论》）， is a classic prescription for treating Shaoyang diseases combined with disturbance of the mind and spirit， with the effects of harmonizing Shaoyang and calming the mind. Current research on mechanisms has shown that CLMT can play a role in CHD complicated with anxiety and depression through multiple pathways， including regulating related signaling pathways， inhibiting the expression of inflammatory factors， improving oxidative stress damage， modulating neurotransmitter levels， suppressing the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis， promoting mobilization of mesenchymal stem cells from the bone marrow， and inhibiting platelet activation. Clinical studies have demonstrated that CLMT significantly improves symptoms such as angina and insomnia caused by CHD complicated with anxiety and depression， effectively reduces negative emotions， improves traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndrome scores， and decreases levels of inflammatory factors. Furthermore， it has fewer adverse reactions and higher safety than conventional western medicine treatments. This article provides a review of the mechanisms and clinical studies of CLMT in the treatment of CHD complicated with anxiety and depression based on a comprehensive analysis of literature from the China National Knowledge Infrastructure （CNKI）， Wanfang Data， VIP， PubMed， and other databases in the past 15 years， in order to provide references for further research on the use of CLMT in the management of CHD complicated with anxiety and depression.
