Objective:To explore the relationship between maternal rejection and internet addiction in college students, as well as the chain mediating role of rejection sensitivity and adaptability.Methods:From March to May 2024, a total of 1 119 college students were surveyed using the short-form Egna Minnen av Barndoms Uppforstran for Chinese(s-EMBU-C), internet addiction test(IAT), rejection sensitivity questionnaire(RSQ), and the China college student adjustment scale(CCSAS).SPSS 26.0 statistical software was used for independent sample t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson product moment correlation, and multiple linear regression analysis, and PROCESS 4.0 macro program was used for chain mediation analysis. Results:(1)Maternal rejection (11.19±2.97) was positively correlated with internet addiction (44.89±9.74)( r=0.60, P<0.01) and rejection sensitivity (102.93±55.63)( r=0.63, P<0.01), while negatively correlated with adaptability (200.19±14.18)( r=-0.56, P<0.01) among college students. Rejection sensitivity was positively correlated with internet addiction ( r=0.75, P<0.01) and negatively correlated with adaptability ( r=-0.76, P<0.01). Adaptability was negatively correlated with internet addiction ( r=-0.68, P<0.01). (2)Maternal rejection had a significant direct effect on internet addiction among college students (effect value=0.193, 95% CI=0.145-0.241), accounting for 32.06%(0.193/0.602) of the total effect. Rejection sensitivity mediated the relationship between maternal rejection and internet addiction (effect value=0.290, 95% CI=0.232-0.357), accounting for 48.17%(0.290/0.602) of the total effect. Adaptability also mediated this relationship (effect value=0.028, 95% CI=0.009-0.053), accounting for 4.65%(0.028/0.602) of the total effect. Additionally, there was a chain mediation effect of rejection sensitivity and adaptability on the relationship between maternal rejection and internet addiction (effect value=0.091, 95% CI=0.052-0.130), accounting for 15.12%(0.091/0.602) of the total effect. Conclusion:Maternal rejection can directly influence internet addiction in college students, and it can also indirectly influence internet addiction through the independent mediating effects of rejection sensitivity and adaptability, as well as through the chain mediating effects of both rejection sensitivity and adaptability.

Objective:To explore the effects of perceived stress on ego depletion of college students, as well as the mediating role of emotional eating and the moderating role of peer relationship.Methods:A cross-sectional survey of 1 088 college students was conducted using the perceived stress scale, the Dutch eating behavior questionnaire, the self-control resource depletion scale, and the peer relationship measurement from December 2023 to April 2024.PROCESS Macro program in SPSS 25.0 software was used to test the mediating effect of emotional eating and the moderating effect of peer relationship.Results:(1)The score of perceived stress, emotional eating, peer relationship and ego depletion were 39.26±8.35, 39.19±12.15, 2.00(1.00), and 18.19±7.15, respectively.(2)Perceived stress was positively correlated with emotional eating, ego depletion, and peer relationship( r=0.36, 0.61, 0.25, all P<0.01). Emotional eating was positively correlated with ego depletion and peer relationship( r=0.40, 0.19, both P<0.01). And ego depletion was positively correlated with peer relationship( r=0.23, P<0.01).(3)Emotional eating played a partial mediating role in the effect of perceived stress on ego depletion( β=0.077, 95% CI=0.053-0.104), and the mediating effect accounted for 12.38%(0.077/0.622) of the total effect.(4)Peer relationship played a moderating role between perceived stress and emotional eating. Under low peer relationship, perceived stress had a significant positive predictive effect on emotional eating( βsimple=0.46, P<0.01), and under high peer relationship, the predictive effect of perceived stress on emotional eating was significantly weaker( βsimple=0.26, P<0.01). Conclusions:Perceived stress not only directly affects ego depletion, but also indirectly affects ego depletion through emotional eating in college students.High levels of peer relationship can weaken the impact of perceived stress and high emotional eating on ego depletion.

Objective:To explore the mediating effects of self-management and medication adherence between type D personality and viral load in HIV-infected individuals.Methods:HIV patients who were newly diagnosed and undergoing antiretroviral therapy (ART) at the Heilongjiang AIDS Treatment Center of the Fourth Hospital of Harbin Medical University from October 2023 to March 2024 were enrolled by convenience sampling. Data were collected using the Type D Personality Scale-14 (DS-14), HIV Self-Management Scale (HIVSMS), and 8-item Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8). HIV-1 viral load was also measured. Pearson correlation analysis explored the relationships among type D personality, self-management, medication adherence, and viral load. The SPSS Process V4.0 macro was used to test the mediating effects.Results:A total of 318 questionnaires were distributed and 313 valid responses were collected (effective response rate: 98.43%). The mean scores for the 313 HIV-infected individuals were as follows: DS-14 (33.39±4.98), HIVSMS (29.84±4.41), and MMAS-8 (6.11±1.29). The mean viral load was (1 803.19±870.81) copies/ml. Pearson correlation analysis showed that type D personality was negatively correlated with self-management and medication adherence ( r=-0.307, -0.208, respectively; P<0.01) and positively correlated with viral load ( r=0.213; P<0.01). Medication adherence was negatively correlated with viral load ( r=-0.232; P<0.01), while self-management was positively correlated with medication adherence ( r=0.353; P<0.01). The mediation analysis revealed that self-management and medication adherence played a chain mediating role between type D personality and viral load, with a mediation effect value of 0.016, accounting for 8.08% of the total effect. Conclusions:Type D personality directly influences the viral load of HIV-infected individuals and indirectly affects it through the mediating effects of self-management and medication adherence.

Major depressive disorder (MDD) has become an increasingly serious public health issue, characterized by high incidence and high disability rates. It often coexists with other mental health problems and physical diseases, with a significant negative impact on patients' quality of life. In clinical practice, MDD is considered a heterogeneous disease. The complexity of the pathological mechanisms and the variability in treatment responses lead to a lack of clear therapeutic targets, which complicates the treatment process. In recent years, with advancements in neuroscience, the crucial role of microglia in the pathogenesis of MDD has been revealed. As the main immune cells in the brain, microglia are not only involved in the regulation of neuroinflammation but also play important roles in neurogenesis and neuronal regulation in MDD. This article mainly discusses the role of microglia in the pathophysiological mechanisms of MDD, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for microglia as a potential target for the treatment of MDD.

Objective:To explore the impact of parenting style on social anxiety among college students, and examine the mediating effect of core self-evaluation.Methods:From November 2022 to January 2023, a total of 1 126 college students in Harbin were taken as research subjects.Interaction anxiousness scale(IAS), short-egna minnen betraffende upfostran-Chinese(s-EMBU-C) and core self-evaluations scale(CSES) were used for analysis. Data were analyzed using SPSS 26.0 software for correlation analysis and analysis of variance.AMOS 27.0 software was used for mediation effect test.Results:Social anxiety (42.31±8.23) was negatively correlated with positive parenting style (5.44±1.45) ( r=-0.072, P<0.05) and core self-evaluation (32.12±6.01) ( r=-0.350, P<0.01), while positively correlated with negative parenting style (7.40±1.74)( r=0.302, P<0.01). Core self-evaluation was positively correlated with positive parenting style ( r=0.362, P<0.01) and negatively correlated with negative parenting style ( r=-0.346, P<0.01).Parent parenting styles had a significant mean direct effect on social anxiety of college students ( βpositive=0.098, βnegtive=0.222).Mediation analyses indicated that core self-evaluation played a masking role between positive parenting styles and social anxiety, with an absolute value of 90.82% for the ratio of indirect(-0.089) to direct effects(0.098).Core self-evaluation had partial mediating effect on negative parenting styles, with direct effect and indirect effect accounting for 73.03% and 26.97% of the total effect, respectively. Conclusion:Parenting style can either directly affect college students' social anxiety or indirectly through the mediating effect of core self-evaluations, with core self-evaluations playing a masking role in the positive parenting styles pathway.

Objective:To explore the impact of negative perfectionism on academic procrastination, as well as the mediating role of anxiety and the moderating role of negative cognitive emotion regulation strategies.Methods:In December 2022, a cross-sectional survey was conducted on 4 178 students from a medical college in Heilongjiang Province. The Zi negative perfectionism questionnaire, procrastination assessment scale-student, generalized anxiety disorder-7, and cognitive emotion regulation questionnaire were used to conduct the questionnaire survey, and 4 004 valid questionnaires were recovered. SPSS 26.0 statistical software was used for common method deviation test, descriptive statistics and correlation analysis, PROCESS macro program was used for mediation and moderation effect analysis.Results:(1) The scores of nursing students' negative perfectionism, anxiety, negative cognitive emotion regulation strategy, and academic procrastination were (120.48±23.40), (12.75±5.36), (44.82±11.20), and (42.95±14.30), respectively. (2) Negative perfectionism was positively correlated with anxiety ( r=0.311, P<0.01) and academic procrastination ( r=0.113, P<0.01). Academic procrastination was positively correlated with anxiety ( r=0.190, P<0.01) and negative cognitive emotion regulation strategies ( r=0.260, P<0.01). (3) Anxiety played a partially mediating role between negative perfectionism and academic procrastination, with direct effect and mediating effect accounting for 49.11% (0.055/0.112) and 50.89% (0.057/0.112) of the total effect, respectively. (4) The effect of negative perfectionism on anxiety was moderated by negative cognitive emotions, and the predictive effect of negative perfectionism on anxiety was stronger in nursing college students with high negative cognitive emotion ( β=0.231, P<0.001). Conclusion:Among nursing college students, negative perfectionism can predict academic procrastination through anxiety, and cognitive emotion regulation strategies moderate the predictive effect of negative perfectionism on anxiety.
