[Objective]To investigate the depression status and its influencing factors in HIV/AIDS patients receiving antiviral therapy.[Methods]From July 2022 to September 2022,successive sampling method was used to recruit HIV/AIDS patients receiving antiviral therapy from antiviral treatment institutions in Nanjing,and they were instructed to fill out anonymous questionnaires.The questionnaire collected the basic information of patients,and depression,HIV stigma score and social support level were investigated by Patient Health Questionnaire-9(PHQ-9),Berger HIV stigma scale(BHSS)and Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support(MSPSS).Multivariate Logistic regression was used to an-alyze the influencing factors of depression.[Results]A total of 1879 valid questionnaires were collected in this study,and the detection rate of depression was 50.1%.The results of multivariate logistic analysis showed that compared with patients with middle school or below,the risk of depression was lower for those with postgraduate or above[OR=0.534,95%CI(0.341,0.835),P=0.006].Compared with antiviral therapy duration<1 year,antiviral therapy duration for 1 to 5 years[OR=0.729,95%CI(0.536,0.991)],>5 to 10 years[OR=0.516,95%CI(0.379,0.702)],>10 years[OR=0.603,95%CI(0.375,0.969)]was associated with a lower risk of depression.High level of social support was a protective factor for depression in HIV/AIDS patients compared with middle and low level of social support[OR=0.430,95%CI(0.349,0.530),P<0.001].There was a higher risk of depression with side effects than without side effects[OR=2.260,95%CI(1.833,2.786),P<0.001].The higher the score on the HIV stigma scale,the higher the possibility of depression was.[Conclusion]The detection rate of depression of patients receiving antiviral therapy in Nanjing is high.After starting antivi-ral therapy,we should strengthen the monitoring of side effects and psychological status of patients,carry out psychologi-cal intervention,alleviate psychological problems,and improve the quality of life of patients receiving antiviral therapy.

Objective:To evaluate the short-term efficacy of dual biologics combination therapy in the treatment of refractory Crohn′s disease (CD) .Methods:The clinical features, diagnosis and treatment of 5 cases of refractory CD treated with biologics dual-target therapy in the Seventh Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital between January 26, 2020 and August 15, 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The relevant literatures were reviewed and summarized by searching the articles on biologics dual-target therapy published in MEDLINE, EMBASE and Cochrane Library until August 2021.Results:Five patients with refractory CD were all male, aged 40.8 (23.0, 56.0) years, with disease course of 10.4 (6.0, 17.0) years, including 2 patients treated with infliximab (IFX) in combination with ustekinumab (UST) . Two patients treated with IFX in combination with vedolizumab (VDZ) and 1 patient treated with UST in combination with VDZ. Laboratory and colonoscopy examinations were performed 14 weeks after combination therapy in the VDZ containing group and 16 weeks after combination therapy in the VDZ free group. Results of examinations after treatment indicated that 1 case presented clinical remission, 3 cases presented clinical response and 3 cases presented endoscopic response. Combination therapy group with UST had better efficacy. None of the 5 patients had special adverse drug reactions during follow-up for six months after combined treatment. A total of 17 relevant reports were retrieved.Conclusion:Biologic dual-target therapy may be a short-term effective and safe treatment for refractory CD.
