Objective:To explore the mediating effect of coping styles on the relationship between reinforce-ment sensitivity and non-suicidal self-injury(NSSI)behavior in adolescents.Methods:In total,4 462 middle school students were chosen by stratified cluster random sampling.All participants were asked with the question"In the past 1 year,have you intentionally harmed yourself(but not with the intention of ending your life)"to determine whether they had NSSI behavior in the past 12 months.All students were also assessed with the Trait Coping Style Questionnaire(TCSQ)and Reinforcement Sensitivity Scale(RSS).Results:The prevalence of NSSIbehavior in past year was 11.3％.Logistic regression analysis showed that the total scores of punishment sensitivity of RSS(OR=1.26,95％CI=1.10-1.46),negative coping style of TCSQ(OR=2.23,95％CI=1.92-2.60),and positive coping style of TCSQ(OR=0.70,95％CI=0.62-0.80)were associated with the screen-positive rate of NSSI behavior.Bootstrap test showed that the total scores of positive coping style of TCSQ(β=0.15,95％CI=0.10-0.20)and negative coping style of TCSQ(β=0.53,95％CI=0.43-0.64)partially mediated the relation-ship between the total scores of punishment sensitivity of RSS and the screen-positive rate of NSSI behavior in ado-lescents.Conclusion:The occurrence of NSSI behavior in adolescents is associated with the over-activation of pun-ishment sensitivity,partly through coping styles.

OBJECTIVE To explore the efficacy and safety of sofosbuvir-velpatasvir(SOF/VEL)combined with or without ribavirin(RBV)in treatment of the patients with genotype 3(GT3)chronic hepatitis C(CHC)and liver cirrhosis.METHODS Totally 230 patients with CT3 CHC and liver cirrhosis who were treated in Traditional Chi-nese Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region,Xinjiang Hetian Specialized Hospital of Infectious Diseases and Xinjiang Manasi County People's Hospital from Jun.2018 to Mar.2023 were recruited as the research sub-jects.The clinical curative effects were observed after the subjects were treated with single SOF-VEL or the com-bination with RBV for 12 to 24 weeks.The indexes including high-sensitivity hepatitis C RNA(HCV RNA),blood routine indexes,liver function indexes and noninvasive diagnosis indexes for liver fibrosis were observed,and the sustained virological response 12 weeks after the treatment(SVR12)was analyzed.RESULTS The mean age of the enrolled patients was(42.31±11.18)years old,the male patients accounted for 66.52％,and there were 137 cases of GT3a and 93 cases of GT3b 93,there were 183 cases of CHC,44 cases of compensated cirrhosis(CC)and 3 cases of decompensated cirrhosis(DCC).There were 189 cases of single HCV infection,33 cases of mixed infections of HCV and HIV,6 cases of mixed infections of HBV/HCV and 2 cases of triple infections of HBV/HCV/HIV.The overall SVR12 of the 230 patients was 99.57％,the SVR12 of the GT3a type patients was 100.00％,the GT3b type patients 98.92％.The SVR12 of the patients with CHC,CC and DCC were 99.45％,100.00％and 100.00％,respectively.The SVR12 of the patients with single HCV infection,HCV/HIV infec-tion,HBV/HCV infection and HBV/HCV/HIV were 99.47％,100.00％,100.00％and 100.00％,respective-ly.No patient quit the direct-acting antivirals(DAAs)treatment due to the drug-induced adverse reactions.1 pa-tient had relapse due to irregular administration of DAAs.CONCLUSION The virological response rate is high a-mong the patients with GT3 CHC and liver cirrhosis who are treated with single SOF/VEL or the combination with RBV,with the safety favorable.

Objective To understand the membrane protein molecular epidemiology of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA) in the region,and provide some evidence for rational drug use or application of efflux pump inhibitors. Methods Collected Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from four hospitals in the region from October 2022 to August 2023,and used SYBR-PCR method to quantitatively detect the relative mRNA expression (RE) levels of 10 membrane protein coding genes,including mexA,B,C,D,E,F,X,Y,and oprD,M. Then categorized the strains into five groups based on ceftazidime,cefepime,imipenem,and meropenem resistance phenotype combination,including the compassionate group (Group Ⅰ),Group Ⅱ with full resistance,IPM,MEM resistant,CAZ and CFP sensitive groups (Group Ⅲ),IPM resistance,MEM non-resistance (sensitive or intermediate) group (Group Ⅳ),IPM,MEM resistance,CAZ and CFP non-resistance groups (Group V).The median RE of each membrane protein-coding gene was analyzed. Results A total of 108 strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were collected,with 24 strains in Group Ⅰ as controls and 84 strains in the carbapenem resistant group,including 32 strains in Group Ⅱ,22 strains in Group Ⅲ,13 strains in Group Ⅳ,and 17 strains in Group Ⅴ. The expression of mexD,mexE,mexF,mexX and mexY in the drug-resistant group was higher than that in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant (U=409.5～661.0,all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in mexA,mexB,mexC,oprD and oprM with the control group (U=767.0～1004.5,all P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the expression of RE genes encoding various membrane proteins among strains from different hospitals (H=0.914～7.407,all P>0.05). Among the four different phenotypes,there was no statistically significant difference in the irregular distribution of mexA and oprM RE between each group and the control group (UmexA=95.0～264.0,UoprM=143.0～331.0). The mexC RE in each group was lower than that in the control group,but the differences were not statistically significant (U=134.0～344.5,all P>0.05). MeixE and meixY RE were both higher than the control group,and the differences were statistically significant (UmexE=48.0～230.0,UmexY=83.0～184.0). MeixB was lower than the control group in group Ⅳ (U=72.0),and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). MeixD and meixF showed consistent expression,with higher expression in groups Ⅲ,Ⅳ and Ⅴ compared to the control group (UmeixD=34.0～102.0,UmeixF=65.0～113.0). MeixX was expressed higher in groups Ⅱ,Ⅳ and Ⅴ compared to the control group (U=164.0,58.0,111.0),while oprD was only expressed lower in group Ⅲ than in the control group (U=140.0),with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05). Although the expression of oprD in groups Ⅱ,Ⅳ and Ⅴ was lower than that in the control group,the differences were not statistically significant (U=381.0,102.0,144.0,all P>0.05). Conclusion ExCD,mexEF and mexXY are the main membrane protein combinations of CRPA efflux pumps in Kunming area. Upregulation of mexD,E,F,X,and Y membrane protein expression enhanced efflux. The correlation between mexAB oprM efflux pump and carbapenem resistance in CRPA in this area was low. The low expression of oprD played a role in the efflux mechanism in strains that do not produce β-lactase,but there was no significant difference in low expression in enzyme producing strains.

Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of precise disconnection of pargastric varices guided by endoscopic ultrasound in the treatment of esophagogastric variceal bleeding.Method A retrospective analysis was conducted on 20 patients with cirrhosis esophagogastric variceal bleeding treated with endoscopic ultrasound-guided precise disconnection of pargastric varices from January 1,2024 to December 31,2024.The efficacy was analyzed.Result All 20 patients successfully completed the precise disconnection of pargastric varices under the guidance of endoscopic ultrasound.The injection of tissue gel combined with the placement of spring coils(14 cases)and the injection of tissue gel alone(4 cases)successfully blocked the pargastric varices.All patients did not experience perforation,esophageal and cardia stenosis,massive bleeding,septicemia,or ectopic embolization.One patient who received tissue gel alone had slight bleeding from the pargastric varices after surgery and improved after 3 days of treatment to reduce portal vein pressure.Another one patient who received tissue gel alone had a low-grade fever and normal body temperature after 3 days of anti-infection treatment.Conclusion Precise disconnection of pargastric varices under the guidance of endoscopic ultrasound has a good therapeutic effect on esophagogastric variceal bleeding,with fewer complications such as ectopic embolization,massive bleeding,infection,and perforation.However,close follow-up observation is still needed to address the issue of pargastric varices.

As the incidence of autism rises annually,its unknown pathogenesis makes it challenging to treat the varied repetitive and stereotyped behaviors that characterize its core symptoms.The striatum is an important brain region for the control of locomotor behaviors,featuring a unique mosaic structure,complex neural origin,and finely regulated developmental process that is highly susceptible to genetic and environmental influences.Both clinical and basic studies have indicated that abnormal development of the striatal nuclei may contribute to the pathogenesis of these repetitive stereotyped behaviors in autism.Clinical imaging data have primarily identified gross anatomical variations in the stratum(e.g.,its general outline),but lack the resolution necessary to detect the cellular and subcellular alterations within the region.By introducing the abnormalities in the spatiotemporal development of the striatum and their links to the characteristic behaviors of autism,this review aims to advance our understanding of the role of the striatum in autism pathogenesis and to inform future animal studies and clinical research.

This study was aimed at comparing the effects of storage conditions on the Brucella survival number in brain heart infu-sion medium,to provide experimental data support for the selection of storage conditions for Brucella strains.We created bacterial sus-pensions of seven strains of Brucella melitensis,Brucella abortus,and Brucella suis(denoted A,B,C,D,E,F,G)by using 30%glycerol brain heart infusion medium,then conducted stability testing.For accelerated stability tests,the bacterial solution was placed in a 37℃chamber for 1,2,3,or 4 weeks continuously,and the Brucella survival number at each time point was measured.For freeze-thaw stability testing,the bacterial solutions were frozen at-80℃,transferred to room temperature for 4 hours,and melted in one freeze-thaw cycle,and the Brucella survival number was measured for 2,4,6,and 8 freeze-thaw times.For long-term stability testing,the bacterial solutions were stored at-80℃,and the Brucella survival number was measured at various time points during the first,third,sixth,and twelfth months of storage.A line graph was plotted to demonstrate the changes in Brucella survival number at each time point in the three stability tests.IBM SPSS Statistics 22 software was used to assess statistically significant differences in Brucella survival number at each time point and the initial Brucella survival number.Accelerated stability tests showed that the Bru-cella survival number of the seven strains significantly decreased,and a statistically significant difference in Brucella survival number was observed after 1 week.In freeze-thaw stability tests,with increasing freeze-thaw times,the Brucella survival number of the seven strains showed a decreasing trend.Strains C and F showed statistically significant differences with respect to the initial Brucella sur-vival number after two times of freeze-thaw;strains A and D showed statistically significant differences with respect to the initial Bru-cella survival number after four times of freeze-thaw;strain G showed statistically significant differences with respect to the initial Bru-cella survival number after six times of freeze-thaw;and strain E showed statistically significant differences with respect to the initial Brucella survival number after eight times of freeze-thaw.The data for strain B showed abnormalities.In long-term stability testing,the Brucella survival number for strains C and F after storage for 1 month showed a statistically significant difference with respect to the initial bacterial solution.No statistically significant difference in Brucella survival number was observed for strains B and E after stor-age for 1,3,6,or 12 months.The data for strains A,D,and G showed abnormalities.The sterile 30%glycerol brain heart infusion medium maintained the Brucella survival number in an-80℃environment,and freezing and thawing multiple times should be avoided.Compared with the traditional freeze-drying method,this method is not only easy to perform but also avoids potential bio-safety hazards,and provides a reliable Brucella culture preservation scheme for researchers in related fields.

This article retrospectively analyzed the involvement of clinical pharmacists in the treatment process and implementation of pharmacological supervision in a patient with septic arthritis secondary to tophi ulceration.The patient was admitted to the hospital and the emergency debridement and tophi removal were performed.Piperacillin-tazobactam,imipenem cilastatin,levofloxacin,linezolid,and vancomycin were given successively,and multiple debridement and drainage were performed,but the patient remained febrile and had recurrent infection indicators.According to the relevant guidelines and evidence-based evidence,combined with the patient's infection indicators,pathogen results and creatinine clearance rate,the clinical pharmacists recommended stopping vancomycin and changing to cefazolin,and the clinicians adopted it.After that,the patient's inflammatory indicators gradually decreased,and the body temperature stabilized.After 28 days of piperacillin-tazobactam administration,the patient developed a reduction in white blood cell count(2.34×109·L-1)and potassium(2.98 mmol·L-1).The pharmacist recommended prompt discontinuation of the drug,and the patient's white blood cell count and potassium gradually recovered.Eventually,after anti-infective treatment and surgical intervention,the patient was discharged with closure of the infected foci,conversion of multiple blood cultures to negative,and stabilisation of body temperature and renal function.This case reflects the role of clinical pharmacists in the management of drug treatment of critically ill patients,and may provide practical experience and reference for clinical treatment of such cases.

Autism spectrum disorder(ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder, and social impairment was one of the core symptoms of ASD, which can seriously affects the social life of patients.The pathogenesis of social impairment in ASD is unclear and it may involves many brain abnormalities.The related theories and hypotheses are numerous and there is no unified conclusion. Studies have shown that the cerebellum has extensive connections with brain networks and is involved in the regulation of social cognition, but its role in ASD has not been fully emphasized.The structural and functional abnormalities of the cerebellar-cortex (CC) loop in ASD patients can lead to language communication disorders, empathy disorders, difficulties in interpreting social cues, abnormal social reward processing and emotional regulation disorders, which are closely related to ASD social impairment. Noninvasive brain stimulation of the superficial cerebellum can improve the abnormal CC circuit in ASD patients, and the cerebellum can be considered as a target for the treatment of social disorders in ASD in the future.Based on the clinical and basic researches on social impairment in ASD in recent years, this article reviews the relevant manifestations of disorders which cerebellar and CC circuit involved, aiming to promote the development of related research in the future.

Objective:To assess the effect of transversus abdominis plane block (TAPB) with liposomal bupivacaine and general anesthesia on postoperative delirium (POD) in elderly patients with prior novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19).Methods:In this randomized double-blind controlled study, 416 patients of either sex, aged 65-90 yr, weighing 50-90 kg, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ-Ⅲ, diagnosed as having COVID-19 within 6 months prior to surgery, who underwent laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery under combination of elective TAPB and combined intravenous-inhalational general anaesthesia at Qingdao Municipal Hospital from June 2023 to December 2024, were selected. The patients were divided into liposomal bupivacaine group ( n=208) and bupivacaine hydrochloride group ( n=208) using the random number table method. After induction of anaesthesia, bilateral TAPB was performed with liposomal bupivacaine injectio 266 mg (40 ml) in liposomal bupivacaine group and with 0.5% bupivacaine hydrochloride 40 ml in bupivacaine hydrochloride group. The primary outcome measure was the occurrence of POD within 7 days after surgery. Secondary outcome measures included severity of POD, pain scores at 24, 48 and 72 h after operation, the rate of postoperative rescue analgesia and consumption of morphine, duration of post-anesthesia care unit stay, and length of hospital stay. The occurrence of complications such as death, reoperation, atelectasis and pneumonia was recorded at 30 days after surgery. Results:Compared with bupivacaine hydrochloride group, the incidence of POD was significantly decreased (21.5% [43/200]versus 12.0% [24/200]), pain scores at 24, 48 and 72 h after operation were decreased, the rate of postoperative rescue analgesia and consumption of morphine were decreased, and the duration of post-anesthesia care unit stay and length of hospital stay were shortened in liposomal bupivacaine group ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the severity of POD and the case fatality rate and related complications within 30 days after surgery between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Liposomal bupivacaine TAPB combined with general anesthesia can reduce the development of POD in elderly patients with prior COVID-19.
