Objective :
To explore the differences in oxidative stress levels between patients with and without non-suicidal self-injury(NSSI) behavior in depressive disorders, and their correlation with depressive symptoms, disease duration, and self-injury frequency.
Methods :
A total of 95 subjects were included in the study, including 65 patients with depression(patient group). They were divided into NSSI subgroup(31 cases) and Non-NSSI subgroup(34 cases) based on whether they had NSSI. 30 healthy control group cases(HC). Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) was used to detect the levels of superoxide dismutase(SOD), catalase(CAT), malondialdehyde(MDA), glutathione peroxidase(GPX), and oxidized low-density lipoprotein(OxLDL) in the peripheral blood of the subjects. The Hamilton depression rating scale(HAMD-17) was used to assess the patient′s condition, and the Ottawa self-injury inventory(OSI) was used to quantitatively evaluate the self-injury frequency of NSSI group patients.
Results :
The levels of SOD, CAT,MDA,GPX and OxLDL in the patient group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.05). The levels of SOD, CAT, MDA,GPX and OxLDL in the NSSI subgroup were significantly higher than those in the Non-NSSI subgroup and the control group(P<0.05).The duration of the NSSI subgroup was positively correlated with the levels of SOD,CAT,and MDA(r=0.504,P=0.004; r=0.568,P=0.001; r=0.404,P=0.024),and the HAMD-17 score was positively correlated with the levels of SOD,CAT,and MDA(r=0.573,P=0.001; r=0.577,P=0.001; r=0.477,P=0.007). The frequency of self-injury was positively correlated with the levels of SOD and MDA(r=0.558,P=0.001; r=0.494,P=0.005).
Conclusion
The OS level of patients with depression is significantly higher than that of the healthy population,and among them,patients with depression accompanied by NSSI have a more significant increase in oxidative stress level. Elevated levels of OS may affect the severity,duration,and frequency of self-injurious behavior in patients with depression accompanied by NSSI.

Objective:To combine and improve two kinds of classical transvaginal cervical cerclage,and to provide a new reference for the clinical treatment of patients with cervical insufficiency(CIC).Methods:Retro-spective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 117 patients who underwent transvaginal cervical cerclage due to CIC from January 1,2018 to August 31,2023 in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical Univer-sity.According to different surgical methods,the patients were divided into the modified cerclage group(40 ca-ses),the McDonald cerclage group(40 cases)and the Shirodkar cerclage group(37 cases).Intraoperative and postoperative conditions and pregnancy outcomes were compared.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze the related factors of preterm birth after modified cervical cerclage and the oth-er two groups of classical cervical cerclage.Results:①Compared with the McDonald cerclage group,the modified cerclage group had longer effective cervical length,longer delivery and gestational weeks,higher term delivery rate,and shorter post-operative contraction inhibitor time,with statistical significance(P<0.05).Compared with the Shirodkar cerclage group,the operation time of patients in the modified cerclage was significantly shortened,the amount of intraoperative blood loss was reduced,the use time of postoperative contraction inhibitors was shortened,and the rate of postoperative wire-cutting was decreased,with statistical significance(P<0.05).②Multivariate Logistic regression analysis of preterm birth showed that the longer the length of the cervix and the later gestational age when the modified cervical cerclage was performed with reference to McDonald's cerclage,the longer the length of the cervix after surgery,the later the gestational age when the suture was removed.The risk of preterm birth was reduced(OR<1,P<0.05),while preoperative BMI≥24 kg/m2 was associated with an increased risk of preterm birth(OR>1,P<0.05).Using Shirodkar's cerclage as reference,the risk of preterm delivery was consistent between the two types of cervix(P>0.05).Longer cervical length and later gestational age after suture removal reduced the risk of preterm delivery(OR<1,P<0.05).Conclusions:The modified transvaginal cervical cerclage is simple and safe in clinical application,it has certain advantages in improving ad-verse pregnancy outcomes of pregnant women,which provides a new reference for the treatment of pregnant women with CIC.Due to the small number of cases included in the study,comprehensive evaluation by clinicians is still needed for clinical application.

Objective To investigate the characteristics and rules of tongue image in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome(CFS)with different fatigue degree.Methods Totally 917 patients with severe chronic fatigue syndrome(severe CFS group),351 patients with mild chronic fatigue syndrome(mild CFS group)and 1216 healthy controls(healthy control group)were enrolled in the physical examination center of Shuguang Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine.The tongue image data of subjects in the three groups were collected using TFDA-1 digital tongue and face diagnostic instrument,and the color space indexes of RGB,HSI,Lab and YCrCb were used to analyze the tongue image differences of CFS people with different fatigue degrees and the tongue image features of CFS patients with liver-qi stagnation syndrome,damp-heat stasis syndrome and spleen deficiency syndrome.Results Compared with the healthy control group,the tongue image indexes TB-R,TB-G,TB-B,TB-I,TB-L,TB-Y,TC-H,TC-I,TC-L and TC-Y increased in the severe CFS group;TB-S,TB-a,TC-S,TC-a,TC-Cr decreased(P<0.05).TB-R,TB-G,TB-B,TB-I,TB-L,TB-Y,TC-R,TC-G,TC-B,TC-I,TC-L and TC-Y increased in severe CFS group compared with mild CFS group.TB-H and TB-b increased in mild CFS group compared with healthy control group.The comparison of syndromes in severe CFS group showed that TB-a,TB-Cr,TC-S,TC-a,TC-Cr and TB-S increased in liver-qi stagnation syndrome compared to damp-heat stasis syndrome;TB-G,TB-B,TB-I,TB-L,TB-Y,TB-b,TB-Cb,TC-G,TC-B,TC-H,TC-I,TC-L,TC-Y and perAll decreased(P<0.05).Compared with spleen deficiency syndrome,TB-a,TB-Cr,TB-CON,TB-ENT,TB-MEAN,TC-a,TC-Cr,TC-CON,TC-ENT,TC-MEAN increased in liver-qi stagnation syndrome;TB-ASM,TC-S and TC-ASM decreased(P<0.05).Compared with spleen deficiency syndrome,TB-a,TB-b,TB-Cr,TB-Cb,TB-CON,TB-ENT,TB-MEAN,TC-G,TC-B,TC-H,TC-I,TC-L,TC-a,TC-Y,TC-Cr,TC-CON,TC-ENT,TC-MEAN,perAll increased;TB-ASM,TC-S and TC-ASM decreased(P<0.05).The comparison of mild CFS syndrome showed that there was no statistical significance between liver-qi stagnation syndrome and spleen deficiency syndrome(P>0.05).TB-Cr,TC-a,TC-Cr and perAll increased and TC-S decreased in damp-heat stasis syndrome compared with spleen deficiency syndrome(P<0.05).TB-S,TB-a,TB-Cr,TC-S,TC-a,TC-Cr increased,and TB-G,TB-B,TB-I,TB-Cb,TB-b,TC-b and TC-Cb decreased(P<0.05)in liver-qi stagnation syndrome compared with damp-heat syndrome.The distribution trend of TC-S was as follows:dampness-heat syndrome
