Objective To explore the mediating role of mobile phone dependency and self-rated health in the relationship between adverse childhood experiences(ACEs)and mental health among young adults.Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted using cluster random sampling among 1 611 young adults(mean age 26.30 years)from a region in Hainan Province.Participants completed the childhood trauma questionnaire(short form),the mobile phone addiction index,the depression-anxiety-stress scale(simplified Chinese version),and a self-rated health questionnaire.Pearson correlation analysis and mediation effect analysis were employed to examine the relationships among ACEs,mobile phone dependency,self-rated health,and mental health.Results ACEs,mobile phone dependency,and self-rated health were all significantly correlated with mental health(all P＜0.01).ACEs had a direct negative effect on mental health(direct effect=0.221,95%confidence interval[CI]0.150-0.293).Furthermore,ACEs exerted indirect effects on mental health through 3 pathways:the independent mediation of mobile phone dependency(indirect effect=0.081,95%CI 0.035-0.130),the independent mediation of self-rated health(indirect effect=0.034,95%CI 0.011-0.062),and the chain mediation of mobile phone dependency and self-rated health(indirect effect=0.009,95%CI 0.004-0.015).Conclusion ACEs have a significant impact on the mental health of young adults,with mobile phone dependency and self-rated health serving as key mediators.Interventions aimed at reducing mobile phone dependency and improving health status may help mitigate the negative impact of childhood trauma on mental health,thereby promoting psychological well-being in this population.

Objective:To investigate the clinic opathological features, treatment and prognosis of children newly diagnosed with ependymoma.Methods:Clinical data of 127 pediatric ependymoma (EPN) patients (0-16 years old) treated with tumor resection and postoperative radiotherapy at Xinhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University between 2001 and 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 53 children were female and 74 were male. Local control (LR), event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method. The relationship between clinic opathological factors and clinical prognosis, and the effect of treatment on clinical prognosis of patients were analyzed by Cox proportional hazards model.Results:At a median follow-up time of 29 months (3-251 months), the 3-year OS and EFS rates were 89.5% and 71.5%, respectively. For patients undergoing incomplete resection followed by postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy, the 3-year LR, OS and EFS rates were 78.3%, 65.8% and 85.7%, respectively. A total of 43 children were aged <3 years old when diagnosed and 84 aged ≥3 years old. The interval time between surgery and radiotherapy in children aged <3 years old was 91 d, and 35.5 d in those aged ≥3 years old ( P<0.001). For patients <3 years old, the median EFS was 90 months when initiating radiotherapy within ≤70 d after surgery, compared to 43 months for those who initiated radiotherapy at >70 d after surgery ( P=0.053). According to fifth edition of the WHO classification of tumors of the central nervous system (WHO CNS5), 39 children were classified as posterior fossa ependymoma group A (PFA group). The OS and EFS rates in the PFA group were significantly less than those in other groups (3-year OS rate were 69.2% vs. 94.6%, P<0.001; 3-year EFS rate were 46.9% vs. 79.1%, P<0.001). In the PFA group, 12 patients received postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy, 14 did not receive chemotherapy, and whether chemotherapy was given was unknown in 13 cases. No significant differences were observed in OS and EFS between patients treated with and without chemotherapy ( P=0.260, P=0.730). Univariate Cox analysis showed that tumor location and WHO CNS5 molecular classification were significantly associated with EFS, and WHO CNS5 molecular classification was significantly correlated with OS. Multivariate Cox analysis showed that tumor location in the posterior fossa was an independent risk factor for EFS ( HR=2.72, 95% CI=1.1~6.71, P=0.03). Conclusions:Patients newly diagnosed with pediatric ependymoma can obtain favorable survival after surgery combined with postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy. Patients with residual tumors can achieve favorable LC and survival after postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy. Delaying of radiotherapy tends to lead to poor survival for patients aged <3 years old when diagnosed. Children in the PFA group obtain worse prognosis compared to their counterparts in other groups. The tumor location in the posterior fossa is an independent risk factor for pediatric ependymoma.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features of pediatric patients with intracranial primary non-germinomatous germ cell tumors (NGGCT) and evaluate the treatment outcomes and prognostic factors of NGGCT.Methods:Clinical data of 40 children with NGGCT who were treated with radiotherapy (RT) at our department between November 2008 and June 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Ninety percent of them received craniospinal irradiation (CSI). All children received platinum-based chemotherapy. Survival analysis was conducted using the Kaplan-Meier estimate. The prognostic factors were analyzed by log-rank test.Results:The primary sites were pineal gland, sellar / suprasellar region and basal ganglia. The median age of onset was 108 months (20-204 months). The median follow-up time was 33 months (8-131 months), and the 3-year and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates were 82.0%. The 3-year and 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) rates were 78.6% and 73.0%. Univariate analysis showed that increased alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) ( P=0.02), age at first diagnosis>10 years ( P=0.006), metastasis at first diagnosis ( P<0.001), and the pathological type (choriocarcinoma, yolk sac tumor and / or embryonal carcinoma) ( P=0.036) were independent adverse prognostic factors. Conclusions:Increased AFP, age>10 years at first diagnosis, tumor metastasis and pathological type were independent adverse prognostic factors of NGGCT. The overall prognosis of NGGCT children is worse than that of their counterparts with germinoma, and multidisciplinary intensive therapy is needed to improve survival.

Objective To explore the relationship of phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) expression in renal tissue with clinical characteristics,prognosis of idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN) patients.Methods 134 patients diagnosed as nephropathy proven by biopsy was selected as subjects of this research,including 98 patients with IMN patients,10 patients with secondary membranous nephropathy and 26 patients with other renal glomerular diseases.The expression of PLA2R antigen in renal tissue was detected by immuno-fluorescence chemistry staining.Results The positive rate of renal PLA2R expression in IMN patients was higher than that in SMN patients (91.84％ vs 40.00％,P＜ 0.01),whereas there is no expression in other glomerular diseases.The PLA2R negative group were mainly stage Ⅰ membranous nephropathy,and positive group was mainly in stage Ⅱ.The distribution of pathological stage between the two groups was statistically significant (P ＜0.01).Compared with the positive group,the negative group was manifested with higher eGFR[(115.91± 23.32) ml· min-1 · (1.73 m2)-1 vs (94.06±27.38) ml· min-1 · (1.73 m2)-1,P=0.031],associated with the higher 12-month complete remission rate (87.50％ vs 44.07％,P=0.021).Conclusions The expression of PLA2R antigen in renal tissue plays an important role in the diagnosis,disease evaluation and prognosis of IMN.The negative PLA2R in kidney tissue of IMN may indicate a good clinical prognosis.

Objective To investigate the effect of artesunate (ASN) on the expression of Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in THP-1 cells induced by the early secretory antigenic target-6 (ESAT-6) and culture filtrate protein-10 (CFP-10) antigens of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and to investigate its possible mechanism.Methods THP-1 ceils were cultured in vitro.The effects of ESAT-6 and CFP-10 on cell viability were detected by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay.THP-1 cells were pre-treated with or without ASN prior to incubation with or without ESAT-6 and CFP-10,the mRNA expression of HO-1 was detected by real time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) level was measured by Western blot.Results MTF assay showed that ESAT-6 and CFP-10 were non-toxic to cells in the range of 0-5 μg/ml.Compared with the control group,5 μg/ml ESAT-6 and 5 μg/ml CFP-10 could significantly increased the mRNA expression of HO-1 (P ＜ 0.05).In addition,20 μg/ml ASN could significantly enhance the mRNA expression of HO-1 induced by ESAT-6 and CFP-10,and inhibit the expression of TLR2 induced by ESAT-6.Conclusions ASN in combination with ESAT-6 or CFP-10,may have potential value in treatment of pathogen-associated inflammatory diseases.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of feeding intolerance (FI),and to explore the FI within 7 days of ICU admission in association with clinical outcome in critically ill patients.Methods The adult patients from 14 general ICUs in Zhejiang Province with an expected admission to ICU for at least 24h were recruited from March 2014 to August 2014,and all clinical,laboratory,and survival data were prospectively collected.The AGI (acute gastrointestinal injury) grade was daily assessed based on gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms,feeding details and organ dysfunction within the first week of ICU stay.The intra-abdominal pressures (IAP) was measured using AbViser device.Results Of 550 patients enrolled,418 were assessed in GI symptoms and feeding details within 7 days of ICU stay.The mean age and SOFA score were (65.1 ± 18.3) years and (8.96 ±4.10),respectively.Of them,355 patients (84.9％) were under mechanical ventilation support,and 37 (8.85％) received renal replacement therapy.The mean length of time for enteral feeding was (30.8 ±26.2) h,and the prevalence of FI on the 3rd and 7th day of ICU stay accounted for 39.2％ and 25.4％,respectively.Compared to those with FI within 7 days of ICU stay,the patients without FI had higher rate of successively weaning from mechanical ventilation (21.3％ vs.5.7％,P =0.003) and higher rate of withdrawal of vasoactive medication (45.5％ vs.20.0％,P =0.037),as well as lower mortality rate of 28-day (24.4％ vs.38.7％,P =0.004) and 60-day (29.6％ vs.44.3％,P =0.005).In multivariate Cox regression model with adjustment for age,sex,participant center,serum creatinine and lactate,AGI grade on the first day of ICU stay,and comorbidities,the FI within 7 days of ICU stay (x2 ≥ 7.24,P ＜ 0.01) remained to be independent predictors for 60-day mortality.After further adjusted for SOFA score,the FI within 7 days of ICU stay (HR =1.71,95％ CI:1.18-2.49;P =0.006) and AGI grade on the first day of ICU stay (HR =1.33,95 ％ CI:1.07-1.65;P =0.009) could provide independent prognostic values of 60-day mortality.Conclusions There is high rate of FI occurred within 7 days of ICU stay,and is significantly associated with worse outcome.In addition,this study also provides evidence to further support that measurement of gastrointestinal dysfunction could increase value of SOFA score in outcome prediction for the risk of 60-day mortality.
