BackgroundAggressive behavior in schizophrenic patients could result in legal disputes and public safety concerns. In patients with illness episodes of different numbers， there may exist differences in the association between levels of novel inflammatory indicators and aggressivity. ObjectiveTo investigate the differences in the correlation between levels of novel inflammatory indicators and aggressivity in patients with first-episode and recurrent schizophrenia， in order to search for inflammatory biomarkers to assess aggression level in schizophrenic patients. MethodsA total of 168 schizophrenic patients were selected as subjects， who were hospitalized for acute disease onset in Chaohu Hospital of Anhui Medical University from October 2022 to April 2024 as well as met the diagnostic criteria of Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders， fifth edition （DSM-5）. Patients were divided into first-episode group （n=58） and recurrent group （n=110）. Meanwhile， 110 healthy controls from community who matched in age and gender with the patient group were recruited. All patients were evaluated with Modified Overt Aggression Scale （MOAS） and Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale （PANSS）. All subjects went through examination of the levels of novel inflammatory indicators， including neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio （NLR）， monocyte/lymphocyte ratio （MLR）， platelet/lymphocyte ratio （PLR）， neutrophil/high-density lipoprotein ratio （NHR）， monocyte/high-density lipoprotein ratio （MHR） and platelet/high-density lipoprotein ratio （PHR）. Spearman correlation analysis was adopted to investigate the correlation between levels of novel inflammatory indicators and the total score of MOAS in patients with first-episode and recurrent schizophrenia. ResultsThe levels of NLR， MLR， PLR， NHR， MHR and PHR in first-episode group were higher than those in control group （adjusted P<0.01）. The levels of NLR， MLR， NHR， MHR and PHR in recurrent group were higher than those in control group （adjusted P<0.01）. No significant difference was observed in the comparison in the levels of six novel inflammatory indicators between first-episode group and recurrent group （adjusted P>0.05）. Spearman correlation analysis showed， the MOAS total score of recurrent group was positively correlated with the levels of NLR， MLR and PLR （r=0.234， 0.192， 0.243， P<0.05）. There was no statistical significance in the correlation between MOAS total score and levels of six novel inflammatory indicators in first-episode group （P>0.05）. ConclusionAmong patients with first-episode and recurrent schizophrenia， the correlation between levels of novel inflammatory indicators and aggressivity could differ. NLR， MLR and PLR might be the biomarkers for assessing aggression level in recurrent schizophrenic patients. ［Funded by Anhui Provincial Natural Science Foundation （number， 2108085MH275）］

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of prone position ventilation(PPV)in improving hypoxemia in patients with severe brain damage.Methods A retrospective research method was conducted,140 patients with severe brain damage who were admitted to the department of critical care medicine of the First Affiliated Hospital,Zhejiang University School of Medicine from August 2020 to August 2021 were selected as subject objected.According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria,20 patients with oxygenation index≤200 mmHg(1 mmHg≈0.133 kPa)who were treated with PPV were statistically analyzed.The patients'blood gas analysis related indicators[including arterial partial pressure of oxygen(PaO2),fractional of inspired oxygen(FiO2),oxygenation index,arterial oxygen saturation(SaO2),arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide(PaCO2),pH value],ventilator-related parameters[including peak inspiratory pressure(PIP),positive end-expiratory pressure(PEEP),tidal volume(VT),lung dynamic compliance(Cdyn),etc.],and mean arterial pressure(MAP),heart rate(HR)were compared before PPV,12 hours after PPV,and 12 hours after reverting to supine position.At the same time,the related complications of patients during PPV were recorded.Results There were 15 males and 5 females,the mean age of the patients was(46.10±17.22)years old,the average PPV time was(22.20±5.94)hours.Compared with before PPV,patients showed significant increases in PaO2,oxygenation index,SaO2,VT,and Cdyn at 12 hours after PPV and 12 hours after recovery from supine position[PaO2(mmHg):98.35±21.85,98.45±17.90 vs.72.15±10.14,oxygenation index(mmHg):198.82±40.51,202.27±46.39 vs.133.20±33.95,SaO2:0.97±0.02,0.97±0.01 vs.0.94±0.03,VT(mL):558.42±111.23,580.29±119.44 vs.484.82±123.77,Cdyn(mL/cmH2O):26.11±5.42,27.90±5.80 vs.24.15±6.13,all P<0.05];Compared with 12 hours after PPV,the Cdyn of the patient still showed a significant increase after 12 hours of recovery from supine position(P<0.05).There were no statistical differences in the FiO2,PaCO2,pH value,PIP,PEEP,HR,and MAP of patients at various time points before and after PPV(all P>0.05).Five patients developed redness and swelling at the skin compression site mainly on the face after PPV,which gradually improved after returning to a supine position.During this period,there was no occurrence of catheter detachment,malignant arrhythmia,or significant hemodynamic instability.Conclusion PPV has a certain clinical effect on improving hypoxemia in patients with severe brain damage.

Objective:To analyze the clinicopathological features and differential diagnosis of large B-cell lymphoma with IRF4 rearrangement, aiming enhance its recognition and prevent misdiagnosis.Methods:The clinicopathological features, immunophenotype, and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) results of six cases diagnosed with IRF4 rearrangement-positive B-cell lymphoma at the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from 2015 to 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Additionally, a comprehensive review of the literature was conducted.Results:Six patients with IRF4 rearrangement-positive large B-cell lymphoma were included. Patients 1 to 5 included three males and two females with a median age of 19 years ranging from 11 to 34 years. Four patients presented with head and neck lesions, while the other one had a breast nodule; all were in clinical Ann Arbor stages I to Ⅱ. Morphologically, entirely diffuse pattern was present in two cases, purely follicular pattern in one case, and diffuse and follicular patterns in other two cases. The tumor cells, predominantly centroblasts mixed with some irregular centrocytes, were of medium to large size, with a starry sky appearance observed in two cases. Immunophenotyping revealed all cases were positive for bcl-6 and MUM1, with a Ki-67 index ranging from 70% to 90%, and CD10 was positive in two cases. IRF4 rearrangement was confirmed in all cases by FISH analysis, with dual IRF4/bcl-6 rearrangements identified in two cases, leading to a diagnosis of LBCL-IRF4. Case 6, a 39-year-old female with a tonsillar mass and classified as clinical Ann Arbor stage Ⅳ, displayed predominantly diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) morphology with 20% high-grade follicular lymphoma characteristics. Immunohistochemistry showed negative CD10 and positive bcl-6/MUM1, with a Ki-67 index of approximately 80%. Triple rearrangements of IRF4/bcl-2/bcl-6 were identified by FISH, leading to a diagnosis of DLBCL with 20% follicular lymphoma (FL). All six patients achieved complete remission after treatment, with no progression or relapse during a follow-up period of 31-100 months.Conclusions:Large B-cell lymphoma with IRF4 rearrangement is a rare entity with pathological features that overlap with those of FL and DLBCL. While IRF4 rearrangement is necessary for diagnosing LBCL-IRF4, it is not specific and requires differentiation from other aggressive B-cell lymphomas with IRF4 rearrangement.

Objective:To explore the clinical effects of combined surgical and high-frequency electro-acupuncture treatment for aesthetic restoration in children with eyelid split nevus.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the medical records of children treated for eyelid split nevus in the Plastic Surgery Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from January 2019 to December 2023. All cases underwent combined surgical excision and high-frequency electro-acupuncture vaporization. Surgical removal was used for nevi with significant pigmentation and deep involvement, and high-frequency electro-acupuncture was simultaneously applied to vaporize residual superficial pigmentation layer by layer based on the depth of the pigmentation. The wounds were repaired using either direct suturing or local flap transfer. Postoperative management included the application of growth factors and anti-scar treatments. Postoperative healing, adverse effects, and pigment clearance rate (categorized as healed, significant effect, improved, or ineffective) were observed by comparsons of the pre-treatment and the last follow-up photographs. Eyelid function, appearance, and scar hypertrophy were assessed during follow-up, and family satisfaction (categorized as very satisfied, satisfied, or dissatisfied) was surveyed via telephone.Results:Five children were included, with one male and four females aged between 2 and 10 years (average 7 years). Pigment areas ranged from 0.3 cm × 0.5 cm to 1.7 cm × 1.1 cm, with surgical excision areas from 0.3 cm × 0.4 cm to 1.5 cm × 1.1 cm. All children had good wound healing without complications such as infection, flap ischemic necrosis, wound dehiscence or bleeding. The pigment clearance rate was over 90%, achieving a healed effect. During the follow-up of 14 to 48 months (average 24.2 months), all patients had normal eyelid function without difficulties in opening or closing the eyes, or epiphora. The eyelid appearance was satisfactory without asymmetry, ptosis, ectropion or hypertrophic scars. The aesthetic outcomes and functionality of the eyelids were ideal, and satisfaction was generally rated as very satisfied.Conclusion:Surgical removal combined with high-frequency electro-acupuncture is beneficial for preserving aesthetic appearance while pigmentation in children with eyelid split nevus is removed, offering a new treatment option.

BackgroundPatients demonstrating depressive disorder with psychotic symptoms often have increased risk of death and poor prognosis. A large amount of research has explored the factors influencing psychotic symptoms in adult patients with depressive disorder， but few has focused on adolescent patients. ObjectiveTo explore the influencing factors of psychotic symptoms in adolescent patients with depressive disorder， so as to provide references for early screening and intervention in clinic. MethodsA total of 96 adolescent patients who met the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders， fifth edition （DSM-5） for depressive disorder and were seen in the psychiatry departments of Chaohu Hospital of Anhui Medical University and The Fourth People's Hospital of Hefei from September 2022 to January 2023 were included. Another 56 healthy individuals from the health examination center of Chaohu Hospital of Anhui Medical University were concurrently recruited as control group. Patients were assigned into psychotic group （n=32） and non-psychotic group （n=64） according to the presence or absence of psychotic symptoms. Hamilton Depression Scale-24 item （HAMD-24）， Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale （PANSS）， Positive and Negative Suicide Ideation （PANSI） and Childhood Trauma Questionnaire-Short Form （CTQ-SF） were used for evaluation. Plasma brain-derived neurotrophic factor （BDNF） concentration was obtained using Meso Scale Discovery electrochemiluminescence assay. Pearson and Spearman correlation analysis were adopted to determine the correlation of PANSS positive symptom subscale score with plasma BDNF concentration and clinical characteristics of adolescent depression patients with psychotic symptoms. Binary Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the factors influencing the presence of psychotic symptoms in adolescent patients with depressive disorder， and multiple linear regression analysis was utilized to screen the factors affecting the severity of psychotic symptoms. ResultsThe plasma BDNF concentration of adolescent patients with depressive disorder was lower than that of control group （t=-3.080， P<0.01）.The plasma BDNF concentration of psychotic group was lower than that of non-psychotic group （t=2.418， P<0.05）， while the body mass index （BMI） PANSI scores， CTQ-SF scores and HAMD-24 total scores were all higher than those of non-psychotic group （t=-2.024， -2.530， -2.187， -4.977， P<0.05 or 0.01）. Correlation analysis showed that PANSS positive symptom subscale scores were negatively correlated with anxiety/somatization factor score and weight factor score in HAMD-24 of psychotic group （r=-0.438， -0.498， P<0.05 or 0.01）. Binary Logistic regression showed that BMI， plasma BDNF concentration， HAMD-24 total scores and cognitive dysfunction factor score were the influencing factors of psychotic symptoms in adolescent patients with depressive disorder. Multiple linear regression analysis demonstrated that weight factor scores （β=-0.349， P<0.05） and anxiety/somatization factor score （β=-0.433， P<0.05） in HAMD-24 were the factors influencing the severity of psychotic symptoms. ConclusionHigh BMI， low plasma BDNF concentration， severe depressive symptoms and cognitive dysfunction may be the risk factors of psychotic symptoms in adolescent patients with depressive disorder， furthermore， BMI and anxiety symptoms are found to be associated with the severity of psychotic symptoms. ［Funded by Scientific Research Fund Project of Anhui Institute of Translational Medicine （number， 2022zhyx-B01）； Central Finance Supported Provincial Key Clinical Specialty Construction Project of Anhui Province in 2019］

Objective To explore the impact of clinical treatment decisions on the long-term survival of different molecular subtypes of locally advanced breast cancer(LABC),and to promote the development of more effective and individualized treatment regimens for LABC.Methods The cases of LABC diagnosed by pathology from 2010 to 2015 were searched in the database.Breast cancer-specific survival(BCSS)and overall survival(OS)were estimated by plotting Kaplan-Meier curves.The log rank test(Mantel-Cox)was used to analyze the difference between the groups,and the benefit population of LABC was determined after for age,TNM stage,grade,treatment methods.Results The 5-year OS and BCSS were 77.43％and 84.34％in breast-conserving,and 68.03％and 76.90％in mastectomy,respectively.The 5-year OS and BCSS of Luminal A LABC were 79.91％and 87.23％in breast-conserving,and 71.78％and 81.16％in mastectomy,respectively.The 5-year OS and BCSS of Luminal B LABC were 79.30％and 83.14％in breast-conserving,and were 70.37％and 76.92％in mastectomy,respectively.The 5-year OS and BCSS of triple-negative LABC were 60.77％and 68.13％in breast-conserving,and those of mastectomy were 47.13％and 55.94％,respectively.The 5-year OS and BCSS of HER2 positive were 75.42％,82.05％in breast-conserving,and were 67.05％and 75.01％in mastectomy,respectively;The 5-year OS and BCSS of triple-positive LABC were 86.12％and 91.63％in breast-conserving,and 74.54％and 82.56％in mastectomy,respectively.The 5-year OS and BCSS of well differentiated and N0 triple-positive LABC patients with chemotherapy were 88.24％and 76.91％,and those of patients without chmotherapy were 88.24％and 90.91％,respectively(BCSS:P=0.812;OS:P=0.311).Conclusion In the selective population,OS and BCSS of patients with LABC undergoing breast conserving surgery were significantly better than those of mastectomy.When OS and BCSS were compared for different molecular types and stages of LABC,breast-conserving surgery was still superior to total mastectomy.LABC could be considered for highly differentiated,N0 stage Triple positive without chemotherapy.

Objective:To investigate gender differences in arterial velocity pulse index(AVI), which is an indicator of vascular stiffness, across various age groups.Additionally, the study will also examine the risk factors associated with AVI.Methods:This cross-sectional study enrolled 4311 patients with an average age of 57.8±12.8 years at Jiading Branch of Shanghai First People's Hospital between August 2020 and September 2021.Patients were divided into three groups based on age: young(<45 years old, n=755), middle-aged(45-59 years old, n=1260), and elderly(≥60 years old, n=2 296). The AVI of the subject was obtained using the cuff oscillation wave method.The subject's AVI was acquired using the cuff oscillation wave.High AVI, indicating arteriosclerosis, was defined as AVI≥33.The subjects were then divided into two groups: the high AVI group(122 cases)and the normal AVI group(4 189 cases).Results:The ankle-brachial index(AVI)was found to be 12.8±3.7, 17.5±5.7, and 19.8±6.5 in the young, middle-aged, and elderly groups, respectively.The study revealed that AVI increased with age( Ftrend=767.819, P<0.01). Additionally, the incidence of high AVI in middle-aged women was found to be(2.8% or 20/722), which was higher than that in men 0.9%(5/538)in the same age group.This difference was statistically significant( χ2=5.371, P<0.05). The results of the multivariate logistic regression analysis indicate that being overweight, having a higher height, and a pulse rate greater than 80 BPM are protective factors in preventing a high incidence of AVI.The odds ratios( OR)with 95% confidence intervals( CI)for these factors were 0.468(0.317-0.690), 0.926(0.895-0.958), and 0.143(1.026-2.432), respectively, all with a P-value less than 0.01.On the other hand, old age, systolic blood pressure of 140 mmHg or higher, and diastolic blood pressure of 90 mmHg or higher were identified as risk factors for AVI.The ORs with 95% CIs for these factors were 2.119(1.322-3.396), 6.652(4.136-10.699), and 1.580(1.026-2.432), respectively, all with a P- value less than 0.05l. Conclusions:Arterial stiffness, as measured by the ankle-brachial index(ABI), tends to increase with age.In middle-aged subjects, women have a higher incidence of high ABI than men.Independent risk factors for high ABI include age and increased blood pressure, while factors such as overweight and height may affect the measured value of ABI.
