Objective:To develop the Body Image Flexibility Questionnaire for Middle School Students(BIFQ-MS)and test its validity and reliability.Methods:Firstly,the initial questionnaire was developed based on the hexaflex model of psychological flexibility.Secondly,701 middle school students were selected to complete the initial questionnaire for item analysis and exploratory factor analysis.Thirdly,899 middle school students were ex-amined to conduct confirmatory factor analysis,criterion-related validity and internal consistency tests on the formal questionnaire.The Body Image-Acceptance and Action Questionnaire(BI-AAQ),Avoidance and Fusion Question-naire for Youth(AFQ-Y8),Body Areas Satisfaction Scale(BASS),and General Appearance subscale of the Nega-tive Physical Self Scale(NPSS-GA)were used to test criterion validity.In addition,88 middle school students were retested 4 weeks later.Results:The BIFQ-MS consisted of 26 items,including 4 factors(openness to experience,self-as-context,contact with the present moment,and valued action),which explained 65.55％of the total vari-ance.Confirmatory factor analysis showed that the four-factor structural model fitted well(x2/df=2.26,CFI=0.97,TLI=0.97,RMSEA=0.04,SRMR=0.03).The BIFQ-MS total scores and the scores of each factor were positively correlated with the scores of the BI-AAQ and the BASS(r=0.41-0.50,Ps＜0.01),whereas they were negatively correlated with the scores of the NPSS-GA and the AFQ-Y8(r=-0.28--0.58,Ps＜0.01).The Cronbach's α coefficients of the total questionnaire and the 4 factors ranged from 0.91 to 0.97,and the test-retest reliabilities(ICC)ranged from 0.70 to 0.86.Conclusion:The Body Image Flexibility Questionnaire for Middle School Students is a reliable tool for understanding body image flexibility in adolescents.

Malignant pleural effusion(MPE)is a common complication in patients with advanced malignant tumors,which not only significantly reduces their quality of life but also shortens their survival duration.Despite the widespread use of traditional treatment methods such as thoracentesis and pleurodesis,their efficacy is limited accompanied by high recurrence rates.Therefore,exploring novel therapeutic strategies becomes particularly urgent.In recent years,immunotherapy has attracted extensive attention for its potential in cancer treatment.This article systematically reviews the roles of CD4+T cell subsets,including regulatory T cells(Treg),T helper cell(Th)17,Th9,and Th22 cells,within the immunosuppressive microenvironment of MPE.These cell subsets are involved in the formation of the immunosuppressive state of MPE through various mechanisms and play key roles in the occurrence and development of the disease.In addition,the article discusses in detail the role of immune checkpoint molecules,such as programmed death protein 1(PD-1),PD-1 ligand(PD-L1),and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4(CTLA-4),in the immune evasion of MPE.The abnormal expressions of these molecules provide opportunity for tumor cells to evade immune system surveillance.At the same time,this article also summarizes the application prospects of novel immunotherapy strategies,such as adoptive cell therapy(ACT)and chimeric antigen receptor T cell(CAR-T)therapy,in the treatment of MPE.These innovative therapies offer possibilities for improving the prognosis of MPE patients through activating and enhancing the anti-tumor immune response.
