BackgroundChronic insomnia disorder has become a significant public health issue， and it may be associated with dyslipidemia. Previous studies on dyslipidemia in patients with chronic insomnia disorder have mainly focused on exploring the relationship between subjective short sleep duration and dyslipidemia， while there have been limited studies on the relationship between objective short sleep duration and dyslipidemia. ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between objective short sleep duration and dyslipidemia in patients with chronic insomnia disorder， in order to provide references for the prevention and intervention of dyslipidemia in this population. MethodsA total of 103 patients who were hospitalized at The Third Hospital of Mianyang from August 2022 to November 2023 and met the diagnostic criteria for chronic insomnia disorder as defined in the International Classification of Sleep Disorder， third edition （ICSD-3） were retrospectively collected. The objective sleep duration of the patients was obtained through polysomnography. The patients were divided into two groups based on their objective sleep duration： the group with objective sleep duration ≥ 7 hours （n=71） and the group with objective sleep duration < 7 hours （n=32）. Binary Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the impact of objective sleep duration < 7 hours on dyslipidemia. ResultsAmong 103 patients with chronic insomnia disorder， 59 cases （57.28%） were identified with dyslipidemia. The comparison of dyslipidemia conditions between the group with objective sleep duration ≥ 7 hours and the group with objective sleep duration < 7 hours showed a statistically significant difference （χ²=5.956， P<0.05）. Compared with the group with objective sleep duration ≥7 hours， the group with objective sleep duration < 7 hours exhibited significantly lower high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels， and reduced sleep efficiency （t=-2.003， -5.482， P<0.05 or 0.01）. Binary Logistic regression analysis results showed that the risk of abnormal blood lipids in patients with chronic insomnia disorder with objective sleep duration < 7 hours was 3.128 times higher than that of patients with objective sleep duration ≥ 7 hours （OR=3.128， 95% CI： 1.139–8.588）. ConclusionObjective short sleep duration may be a risk factor for dyslipidemia in patients with chronic insomnia disorder.

BackgroundAnxiety symptoms have become a public health issue affecting the physical and mental health of the elderly population. Mental health literacy is a predictor of anxiety symptoms in the elderly. Currently， there are limited studies on the pathogenic mechanism between the two. Exploring the relationship and mechanism between mental health literacy and anxiety symptoms among the elderly is of great significance for improving the mental health level of the elderly. ObjectiveTo investigate the impact of mental health literacy on anxiety symptoms in the elderly， and to analyze the role of insomnia in this process， in order to provide references for the formulation of prevention and intervention strategies for anxiety symptoms in the elderly. MethodsFrom August 2021 to December 2022， a total of 10 650 older adults aged 60 years old and above were selected from a city in Sichuan Province using a multistage stratified sampling method. Participants completed the self-compiled demographic questionnaire， the Insomnia Severity Index （ISI）， the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale-7 item （GAD-7）， and the National Mental Health Literacy Questionnaire （NMHLQ）. Spearman correlation analysis was adopted to examine the correlation between the scores of the scales. Model 4 in SPSS 27.0 plugin Process 4.1 was employed to test the pathway of insomnia between mental health literacy （and its various dimensions） and anxiety symptoms. ResultsAmong the participants， 9 609 cases （90.23%） completed the valid questionnaire survey， and 1 680 cases （17.48%） were found to have anxiety symptoms. The total score of the NMHLQ for the elderly， as well as the scores of the knowledge， awareness， and skills dimensions， were negatively correlated with the GAD-7 score and the ISI score （r_s=-0.506–-0.054， P<0.01）， and the ISI score was positively correlated with the GAD-7 score （r_s=0.666， P<0.01）. Insomnia served as the mediating pathway between the mental health literacy and anxiety symptoms， with an indirect effect value of -0.210 （95% CI： -0.227–-0.193）， accounting for 54.97% of the total effect. Insomnia was the mediating pathway between the mental health literacy knowledge and anxiety symptoms of the elderly， with an indirect effect value of -0.161 （95% CI： -0.178–-0.144）， accounting for 52.61% of the total effect. Insomnia played a mediating role in the relationship between the awareness of mental health literacy and anxiety symptoms， with an indirect effect value of -0.323 （95% CI： -0.342–-0.302）， accounting for 76.36% of the total effect. Insomnia was the mediating pathway between the mental health literacy skills and anxiety symptoms of the elderly， with an indirect effect value of -0.172 （95% CI： -0.187–-0.159）， accounting for 53.75% of the total effect. ConclusionThe dimensions of mental health literacy， knowledge， awareness and skills of the elderly not only directly affect anxiety symptoms， but also indirectly influence anxiety symptoms through the pathway of insomnia.［Funded by Medical Research Project Plan of Sichuan Province （number， S23049）］

BackgroundInternet addiction poses serious harm to the physical and mental health of college students. Insecure attachment is one of the key factors of internet addiction， while self-compassion and psychological resilience serve as crucial psychological factors closely related to it. However， the chain mediating role of self-compassion and psychological resilience between insecure attachment and college students' internet addiction remains unclear. ObjectiveTo explore the mediating role of self-compassion and psychological resilience in the relationship between insecure attachment and internet addiction in college students， so as to provide references for the prevention and intervention of internet addiction in this population. MethodsFrom November 2023 to February 2024， a total of 1 380 college students were recruited using a cluster sampling method from two universities in Sichuan Province. The assessment was conducted using the Chinese Internet Addiction Scale （CIAS）， the Self-Compassion Scale （SCS）， the Experiences in Close Relationships Scale （ECR）， and the Resilience Scale for Chinese Adolescents （RSCA）. Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to examine the correlations of the scores of each scale. Model 6 in Process 4.2 was used to test the mediating roles of self-compassion and psychological resilience in the relationship between insecure attachment and internet addiction among college students. ResultsA total of 1 232 （89.28%） college students completed the valid questionnaire survey. The ECR score was positively correlated with the CIAS score （r=0.299， P<0.01）， and SCS score was positively correlated with the RSCA score （r=0.299， P<0.01）. The ECR score was negatively correlated with both SCS score and RSCA score （r=-0.122、-0.147，P<0.01）； the SCS score was negatively correlated with both RSCA score and CIAS score （r=-0.238、-0.263， P<0.01）. Self-compassion and psychological resilience were the pathways between insecure attachment and internet addiction， with effect sizes of 0.015 （95% CI： 0.007–0.023） and 0.010 （95% CI： 0.004–0.017）， respectively. Self-compassion and psychological resilience played chain mediating role between insecure attachment and internet addiction， with effect sizes of 0.003 （95% CI： 0.001–0.006）. ConclusionInsecure attachment can directly affect internet addiction in college students， and it can also influence internet addiction through independent pathway of self-compassion and psychological resilience， as well as the chain mediating pathways involving both self-compassion and psychological resilience.
