Objective:To examine the spatial and temporal distribution characteristics of first-time callers with suicidal ideation and risk factors related to suicidal ideation in a psychological assistance hotline in Henan Province.Methods:The computerised counselling operating system of the Henan Provincial Psychological Assis-tance Hotline was used to extract data from 31 401 callers who called the hotline between January 2020 and October 2023.A circular distribution and kernel density analysis were employed to investigate the spatial and temporal distri-bution of first-time callers with suicidal ideation.Binary logistic regression analysis was employed to investigate the risk factors for suicidal ideation.Results:A total of 5 494 first-time callers were included in the study,of whom 1 697(30.9％)reported suicidal ideation in the previous two weeks.The temporal distribution of suicidal ideation calls indicated a peak between 12:36 and 01:08.The weekly distribution further revealed that the majority of calls occurred on Fridays.In terms of spatial distribution,the primary hotspots for callers with suicidal ideation were clus-tered around Zhengzhou and Xinxiang.Meanwhile,the secondary hotspots exhibited a dispersed distribution across multiple centers within the province.Logistic regression analysis revealed that being under 20 years old(OR=11.85),being unemployed(OR=1.78),having psychological issues(OR=5.03),experiencing family relation-ship problems(OR=3.67),and facing economic hardships(OR=7.08)were risk factors for suicidal ideation.Conclusion:The time distribution of calls from individuals with suicidal ideation to the psychological as-sistance hotline in Henan Province exhibits a centralized trend,while the spatial distribution of calls demonstrates an imbalance.When receiving initial calls from individuals with suicidal ideation,particular attention should be paid to those aged 20 years old or younger,those who are unemployed,and those experiencing psychiatric,psychological,familial,and economic difficulties.

Emotional blunting leads to significant declines in cognitive function and activities of daily living in patients with Parkinson's disease, thereby impacting their quality of life and increasing the caregiver burden. Emotional blunting is a progressive condition, and early detection and intervention can slow its progression, making it necessary to assess emotional blunting in patients early. Currently, there are various tools for assessing emotional blunting, but there is a lack of evidence to guide tool selection. This review discusses the impact of emotional blunting on patients with Parkinson's disease and reviews existing assessment tools for emotional blunting, including their content, applications, advantages, and limitations. It also summarizes issues in the application of these tools and offers future directions, aiming to provide a basis for the identification and assessment of emotional blunting in Parkinson's disease patients.

Depression is a major cause of disability and has adverse effects.Despite the many types of anti-depressants,clinical treatments of depression remain poor.Therefore,novel anti-depressant mechanisms need to be explored.The beneficial effects of irisin on the nervous system are gradually being elucidated,and studies have found that irisin has an anti-depressant effect,which may become a new treatment for depression.This study explored the mechanism of irisin and its upstream and downstream anti-depressants by reviewing the existing studies explaining the link between irisin and depression,and proposes that SIRT1/PGC-1α may mediate FNDC5/irisin to regulate BDNF to promote neurogenesis and improve depression,which provides a new idea to study irisin and its upstream and downstream anti-depressants.

Frailty in elderly patients undergoing arthroplasty increases the risk of postoperative complications, prolongs hospital stays, delays the rehabilitation process, and aggravates the economic burden. Frailty is a dynamic condition, and early detection and effective intervention can delay its progression. Therefore, early assessment of frailty status in patients is necessary. Currently, there are numerous frailty assessment tools, but the selection of these tools lacks a solid basis. This paper reviews the impact of frailty on the physical condition of elderly arthroplasty patients, as well as the content, application, advantages, and limitations of existing frailty assessment tools at home and abroad. Furthermore, it summarizes the problems in the process of frailty assessment and puts forward prospects, aiming to provide reference for the identification and assessment of frailty in elderly arthroplasty patients in the future.

There were 538 males and 282 females, aged (56±13)years. Observation indicators: (1) clinical charac-teristics of cirrhotic portal hypertension patients; (2) overall prevention and treatment of EVB in cirrhotic portal hypertension patients; (3) prevention and treatment of EVB in cirrhotic portal hypertension patients from different grade hospitals. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD. Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi-square test. Results:(1) Clinical characteristics of cirrhotic portal hypertension patients: of 820 cirrhotic portal hypertension patients, 271 cases were in compensated stage and 549 cases were in decompensated stage. Of the 271 cases in compensated stage, there were 183 maels and 88 females, aged (53±12)years. There were 185 Han people, 85 Hui people and 1 case of other ethic group. The etiological data of liver cirrhosis showed 211 cases of viral hepatitis B, 4 cases of alcoholic liver disease, 8 cases of viral hepatitis C, and 48 cases of other etiology. There were 235 cases of Child-Pugh grade A and 36 cases lack of data. Of the 549 cases in decompensated stage, there were 355 males and 194 females, aged (57±14) years. There were 373 Han people, 174 Hui people and 2 cases of other ethic group. The etiological data of liver cirrhosis showed 392 cases of viral hepatitis B, 33 cases of alcoholic liver disease, 10 cases of viral hepatitis C, and 114 cases of other etiology. There were 80 cases of Child-Pugh grade A, 289 cases of grade B, 170 cases of grade C and 10 cases lack of data. (2) Overall prevention and treatment of EVB in cirrhotic portal hypertension patients: of 271 patients in compensated stage, 38 cases received non-selective β-blocker (NSBB) therapy, 16 cases received endoscopic treatment, 6 cases received interventional therapy. Of 549 patients in decompensated stage, 68 cases received NSBB therapy, 46 cases received endoscopic treatment, 28 cases received interventional therapy. (3) Prevention and treatment of EVB in cirrhotic portal hypertension patients from different grade hospitals: of 271 patients in compensated stage, 181 cases came from tertiary hospitals, of which 28 cases received NSBB therapy, 15 cases received endoscopic treatment, 6 cases received interventional therapy. Ninety cases came from secondary hospitals, of which 10 cases received NSBB therapy, 1 cases received endoscopic treatment. There was no significant difference in NSBB for prevention of EVB between tertiary and secondary hospitals ( χ2=0.947, P>0.05), while there was a significant difference in endoscopic treatment for prevention of EVB between tertiary and secondary hospitals ( χ2=5.572, P<0.05). Of 549 patients in decompensated stage, 309 cases came from tertiary hospitals, of which 22 cases received NSBB therapy, 29 cases received endoscopic treatment, 22 cases received interventional therapy. Two hundreds and fourty cases came from secondary hospitals, of which 46 cases received NSBB therapy, 17 cases received endoscopic treatment, 6 cases received interven-tional therapy. There were significant differences in NSBB and interventional therapy for prevention of EVB between tertiary and secondary hospitals ( χ2=18.065, 5.956, P<0.05). Conclusions:The proportion of receiving EUB prevention in cirrhotic portal hypertension in Ningxia is relatively low. For patients with compensated liver cirrhosis, the proportion of NSBB therapy and endoscopic treatment in the secondary hospitals was lower than that in tertiary hospitals. For patients with decompensated liver cirrhosis, the proportion of interventional treatment in secondary hospitals is lower than that of tertiary hospitals, but the proportion of NSBB in secondary hospitals taking is higher than that of tertiary hospitals.

Objective To investigate the effect of butylphthalide (NBP) on H2S content and the expression of NR2B in the hippocampus of alcohol dependence rats. Methods A total of 84 SD male rats were randomly divided into 6 groups. Except for the normal group, other groups were subjected to alcohol solution with concentration of 6% ( V/V) for 28 d. Drug intervention began at the 14th day,and rats in the low,medium,high dose group were treated with NBP with a different concentration. Erden abstinence scoring was used to evaluate the rats withdrawal symptom. H2S content was measured in one side of hippocampus and CBS activity was tested in the other side of hippocampus. Hippocampus of 3 rats from each group was used to investigate NR2B mRNA level. Results Withdrawal symptom score ( 12.27 ± 1. 19),H2S content(30. 25 ±8.82), CBS activity (72. 44 ±7. 46) and NR2B mRNA expression( 19. 47 ±0. 86) in medium dose NBP group rats were lower than withdrawal symptom score(14.09 ±2.21) ,H2S content(44. 50 ±6. 65) , CBS activity(79. 06 ±4. 57) and NR2B mRNA expression (29. 13 ±1.39) in experimental control group (P<0.05). Withdrawal symptom score(12. 18 ±1.08) ,H2S content(33.00 ±5.38) ,CBS activity(67. 81 ±9. 37) and NR2B mRNA expression(23. 12 ± 1. 86) in high dose NBP group rats were lower than experimental control group (P < 0. 05). Conclusion NBP can reduce withdrawal symptoms of alcohol dependence rats,may be related to decreased expression of H2S/CBS system, and NR2B mRNA expression.
