Objective:
To understand the impact of left behind experience on the mental health of secondary vocational school students, so as to provide theoretical basis for the psychological health education of secondary vocational school students.
Methods:
From September to December in 2019, a total of 3 401 students from Duyun, Guiding and Pingtang County were selected by multi stage cluster random sampling method. Self designed questionnaire and Symptom Check List-90(SCL-90) were used to investigate mental health status. A total of 1 415 left behind students and 1 415 non left behind students were matched by using propensity score matching (PSM). Wilcoxon test and Logistic regression analysis were conducted.
Results:
Before the matching of propensity score, there were statistically significant differences in the distribution of family structure, mother s educational level, family residence,family harmony and children s past health among the students with or without left behind experience ( χ 2=28.17, 52.40, 96.31, 29.75 , 19.10, P <0.05). After the matching, there were no statistically significant differences in the distribution of the above variables among the students with or without left behind experience ( χ 2=0.02-4.32, P >0.05). Before the matching of propensity scores, there were significant differences in the scores of 10 dimensions of SCL-90, including somatization (1.67,1.58), interpersonal sensitivity (2.00,1.89), anxiety (1.90,1.70), obsessive compulsive symptoms (2.20, 2.10), depression (2.00, 1.85), hostility (1.83, 1.67), terror (1.85, 1.71), paranoia (1.83, 1.67), psychotic (1.70, 1.60) and other (1.85, 1.71) dimensions among secondary vocational school students with or without left behind experience ( Z=-5.15 to -2.84, P <0.05). After propensity score matching, there were significant differences in scores remained only in three factors for interpersonal sensitivity [(2.00(1.56,2.67),2.00(1.44,2.56)], paranoia [1.83(1.33,2.50),1.83(1.33,2.33)] and psychoticism [1.70(1.30,2.30),1.70(1.20,2.20)] in SCL- 90 among secondary vocational students with or without left behind experience ( Z=-2.45, -2.12, -2.23, P <0.05).
Conclusion
The impact of left behind experience on the mental health of vocational school students is mainly reflected in interpersonal sensitivity, paranoia, and psychoticism, which should be identified as key areas of psychological education for secondary vocational school students.

International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2024;32(5):344-348
Objective:To investigate associations of serum peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α) with cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) and their severity in patients with cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD).Methods:Consecutive patients with CSVD admitted to the Department of Neurology, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University and the Eighth People's Hospital of Tongzhou District, Nantong from August 2022 to August 2023 were prospectively included. According to the MRI findings, patients were divided into non-CMB group and CMB group, with the latter further divided into mild CMB group (1-2), moderate CMB group (3-10), and severe CMB group (>10). Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the independent correlation factors of CMBs. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to identify the correlation between serum PGC-1α and the number of CMBs. Results:A total of 158 patients with CSVD were included, of which 96 (60.8%) had CMBs; among them, 55 patients had mild CMBs, 24 had moderate CMBs, and 17 had severe CMBs. The PGC-1α and white blood cell count in the CMB group were significantly lower than those in the non-CMB group, while age, platelet count, triglycerides, fasting blood glucose, and glycated hemoglobin were significantly higher than those in the non-CMB group (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for the confounding variables such as age, fasting blood glucose, and white blood cell count, PGC-1α was an independent protective factor for CMBs in patients with CSVD (odds ratio 0.588, 95% confidence interval 0.415-0.833; P=0.003). Multiple linear regression analysis showed a significant negative correlation between serum PGC-1α and the number of CMBs ( β=-0.566, P<0.001). Conclusion:Serum PGC-1α is associated with CMBs and their severity in patients with CSVD; the higher the serum PGC-1α, the lower the likelihood of the presence of CMBs.

Background Regional differences in economic development, natural environment, health care level, and social structure may lead to differences in the provincial distribution of the health status of the elderly population. Objective To explore the provincial distribution characteristics, regional differences, and influencing factors of the self-assessed health of the elderly population, with the aim of providing a policy basis for improving the health of the elderly population and promoting healthy aging according to local conditions. Methods Using 31 provinces (municipalities and autonomous regions) in China as the basicstudy unit and based on the method of Wagstaff, the self-rated health data of the elderly population (aged 60 years and above) in each province from the 2010 and 2020 national censuses and the 2015 1% National Population Sample Survey were converted into ill-health scores as a measure of self-assessed health, and higher scores represented worse health status perception. Global Moran's I was used to evaluate spatial autocorrelation, range [−1, 1], with a value of 1 as a perfect clustered pattern. Local Moran's I was used to evaluate the tendency of local autocorrelation, and high-high aggregation/low-low aggregation indicated that both target province and its neighboring provinces showed higher/lower ill-health scores. Spatial econometric models were selected by Lagrange multiplier test and Hausman test to explore influencing factors of the self-assessed health of the elderly population. Results In 2010, 2015, and 2020, the national ill-health scores of the elderly population were 1.831, 1.873, and 1.547, respectively, and the corresponding Global Moran's I statistics were 0.347, 0.482, and 0.511, respectively (P<0.01), indicating that the ill-health scores of the elderly population showed a significant spatial positive autocorrelation, and the degree of spatial aggregation was increasing gradually. From 2010 to 2020, the high-high aggregation of ill-health scores among the elderly population was concentrated in the inland northwest, while the low-low aggregation was concentrated in the southeast coast, gradually showing a "southeast-central-northwest" stepped incremental pattern of differentiation. The Lagrange multiplier test and Hausman test suggested that the fixed-effects spatial lagged model was a better choice, and the regression model showed a spatial autocorrelation in the ill-health scores of the elderly population, with an autocorrelation coefficient of 0.3969 (P<0.001); the ill-health scores of the elderly population were negatively correlated with the natural logarithms of gross regional product per capita, and the number of beds in health care facilities per 1000 population, with regression coefficients of −0.8297 and −0.0454 (P<0.05) respectively, and positively correlated with the annual average concentration of PM2.5, illiteracy rate, and the number of health technicians per 1000 population, with regression coefficients of 0.0033, 0.0297, and 0.0765 (P<0.05), respectively. Conclusion From 2010 to 2020, the overall self-assessed health level of China's elderly population showed an upward trend and a spatial positive autocorrelation, with better self-assessed health in the southeast coast and poorer ratings in the northwestern inland. Additionally, there was a gradual decline in self-assessed health of the elderly population from the southeast to the central regions and further to the northwest in terms of spatial distribution. Economic development level, environmental pollution, health resource allocation, and education level are important factors influencing the self-assessed health of the elderly population.

Objective To analyze the postoperative therapeutic effect of prokinetic agents in patients after tricuspid valve replacement (TVR) under cardiopulmonary bypass. Methods Patients received TVR under cardiopulmonary bypass (during June 2010 to December 2021) in the department of Cardiovascular Surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University were selected as the subjects of our study. The data of basic characteristics, first postoperative defecation time and postoperative recovery condition were collected and retrospectively analyzed in the patients taking prokinetic agents within three days after surgery (prevention group) and patients not taking prokinetic agents within three days after surgery (control group). Results A total of 184 patients were selected, including 101 in the prevention group and 83 in the control group. The first defecation time of patients in the prevention group was significantly earlier than that in the control group (P<0.05). The incidences of abdominal distension and pulmonary infection in the prevention group were significantly lower than that in the control group. The length of time in ICU, postoperative mechanical ventilation and nasogastric tube decompression in the prevention group were significantly shorter than that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Taking prokinetic agents within three days after TVR under cardiopulmonary bypass could effectively improve the prognosis of patients.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of Linggui Zhugantang on mitochondrial fission and fusion and silencing information regulator 3(Sirt3)/adenosine monophosphate dependent protein kinase (AMPK) signaling pathway in chronic heart failure (CHF) rats after myocardial infarction (MI). MethodSD rats randomly divide into sham operation group (normal saline ,thread only without ligature), model group (normal saline, ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery proximal to the heart), Linggui Zhugantang group (4.8 g·kg-1) and Captopril group (0.002 57 g·kg-1), with 10 rats in each group. Administere drug continuously for 28 days. Echocardiography detected cardiac function parameters. Hematoxylin eosin (HE) staining observed the pathological changes of the heart. Immunofluorescence detected the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). JC-1 detect mitochondrial membrane potential. Colorimetry measure adenosine triphosphate (ATP), superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), mitochondrial respiratory chain complex activity (Ⅰ-Ⅳ). TdT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining detected the apoptosis rate of myocardial tissue. Western blot detected protein expression levels of Sirt3, phosphorylated AMPK (p-AMPK), phosphorylated dynamic-related protein 1(p-Drp1), mitochondrial fission protein 1(Fis1), mitochondrial fission factor (MFF), optic atrophy protein 1(OPA1). ResultCompared to the sham group, the left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVIDd) and left ventricular end systolic diameter (LVIDs) were significantly increased in model group (P<0.01), while the left ventricular short axis shortening rate (LVFS) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were significantly decreased (P<0.01). There were inflammatory cell infiltration and obvious pathological injury in myocardial tissue. ROS, MDA levels and myocardial cell apoptosis rate were significantly increased (P<0.01), SOD level, ATP content, and membrane potential were significantly decreased (P<0.01). The activity of mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes (Ⅰ-Ⅳ) was significantly decreased (P<0.01). Levels of p-Drp1, Fis1, MFF proteins were significantly up-regulated (P<0.01), while Sirt3, p-AMPK, OPA1 proteins level were significantly down-regulated (P<0.01). Compared with model group, LVIDd and LVIDs were significantly decreased (P<0.01), LVEF and LVFS were significantly increased (P<0.01). Inflammatory cell infiltration and pathological damage of myocardial tissue were significantly relieved. ROS, MDA levels and myocardial cell apoptosis rate were significantly decreased in Linggui Zhugantang group and Captopril group (P<0.01), SOD level, ATP content, and membrane potential significantly increased (P<0.01). The activity of mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes (Ⅰ-Ⅳ) increased significantly (P<0.01),and p-Drp1, Fis1, MFF protein levels were significantly down-regulated (P<0.01), Sirt3, p-AMPK, OPA1 protein were significantly up-regulated (P<0.01). ConclusionLinggui Zhugantang can alleviate oxidative stress and apoptosis damage of myocardial cells, maintain mitochondrial function stability, and its effect may be related to mitochondrial mitosis fusion and Sirt3/AMPK signaling pathway.
