Objective: To explore the network structure of anxiety and depressive symptoms, and psychotic like experiences in junior and senior high school students with different sleep qualities, and to provide a reference for improving sleep quality in the population. Methods: A cross sectional online survey was conducted among 22 997 junior and senior high school students from seven junior and senior high schools in Luzhou City, Sichuan Province, using convenience sampling. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7), Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), and the 16item Prodromal Questionnaire (PQ-16) were administered. Independent sample t-test was used to compare mental health status between adolescents with and without sleep problems. Network analysis was applied to examine the symptom association patterns across gender and school stage subgroups. Results: The prevalence of sleep problems among junior and senior high school students was 22.58%. The total anxiety symptom score (8.92± 4.02 ), total depressive symptom score (13.35±5.66), and scores for each factor of PQ-16 (perceptual and sensory abnormalities, thinking abnormalities, negative symptoms, and specific perceptual and sensory abnormalities) (3.32±3.32, 2.08±2.36, 3.36± 2.74 , 1.44±1.86) in the group with sleep problems were all significantly higher than those in the group without sleep problems ( 3.43 ±3.33, 5.03±4.73; 0.63±1.52, 0.47±1.11, 0.77±1.48, 0.25±0.79), with statistically significant differences ( t =99.60, 106.54, 82.49, 68.51, 89.09, 67.30, all P <0.01). In females with sleep problems, the anxiety-depressive symptoms edge weight was the highest (0.44). In males with sleep problems, the "sleep latency-sleep efficiency" edge weight was the highest (0.43), and the strength centrality values of "perceptual abnormalities" "medication factor" and "sleep latency" ranked the higher (1.32, 1.31 and 1.25). The network connectivity strength of the sleep problem group was higher in senior high school students than in junior high school students, and the strength centrality (1.12) and betweenness centrality (0.12) of negative symptoms were higher than those in junior high school students (1.02 and 0.11). Conclusions The network associations between sleep problems and psychological symptoms in junior and senior high school students exhibit gender and school stage specific characteristics. Differentiated intervention strategies should be tailored to specific subgroups.

Objective To develop a preoperative question prompt list(QPL)for older patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH)and evaluate its effectiveness in application.Methods This trial adopted a randomized controlled design.The QPL was developed by literature review,expert discussions,and Delphi consultation.Convenience sampling was used to subject 76 older BPH inpatients treated in our department,and then they were randomly divided into control(routine communication,n=38)and intervention(QPL-assisted communication,n=38)groups.Number of the questions patient asking,communication duration,information recall,and communication quality were compared between the 2 groups.Results In the 2 rounds of expert consultation,the response rate of questionnaire was 94.44%and 100%,the authority coefficient was 0.89 and 0.93,the coefficient of variation was 0.05～0.22 and 0～0.11,and Kendall's coefficients was 0.645(Chi-square=87.782,P<0.001)and 0.733(Chi-square=74.789,P<0.001),respectively.The final QPL included 3 themes and 7 questions.The intervention group asked more questions(4.03±1.89 vs 2.11±1.27,P<0.05)but spent similar time for communication(8.18±2.11 vs 7.67±1.72 min,P>0.05).At 1 d before discharge,better information recall(8.74±1.12 vs 6.49±1.68,P<0.001)and communication quality(60.06±6.25 vs 54.86±7.98,P<0.05)were observed in the intervention group when compared with the control group.Conclusion Our developed preoperative communication QPL is of scientificalness and effectiveness for elderly BPH patients.This tool can not only encourage question-asking behavior,but also improve information recall and communication quality in the patients.

Objective To explore the evaluation value of serum follistatin like protein 1(FSTL1)and glu-cose regulatory protein 78(GRP78)on disease severity and readmission in elderly patients with chronic ob-structive pulmonary disease(COPD).Methods A total of 100 elderly COPD patients(COPD group)treated in this hospital from March 2020 to May 2023 were selected as COPD group,and were divided into grade Ⅰ(35 cases),grade Ⅱ(46 cases)and grade Ⅲ(19 cases)according to the severity of the disease.Another 100 elderly volunteers who underwent physical examination during the same period were selected as the control group.Serum FSTL1 and GRP78 levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Spearman and Pearson correlation were used to analyze the correlation between serum FSTL1 and GRP78 lev-els and general data.The evaluation value of serum FSTL1 and GRP78 levels in COPD patients on disease se-verity and readmission was analyzed by receiver operating characteristics(ROC)curve.Results Compared with the control group,serum levels of FSTL1 and GRP78 in COPD group were significantly increased(P＜0.05).Serum levels of FSTL1 and GRP78 in COPD patients increased with the severity of the disease(P＜0.05).Compared with non-readmission group,the serum levels of FSTL1 and GRP78 in readmission group were significantly increased(P＜0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that serum FSTL1 and GRP78 levels were positively correlated with smoking history,hypertension history and disease severity(P＜0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that serum FSTL1 and GRP78 levels were negatively correlated with arte-rial oxygen pressure(PaO2),the ratio of forced expiratory volume in the first second to forced vital capacity(FEV1/FVC),and the percentage of forced expiratory volume in the first second to expected value(FEV1％pred),with significance(P＜0.05),while it was positively correlated with the partial pressure of carbon diox-ide(PaCO2),with significance(P＜0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that serum FSTL1,GRP78 and their combined assessment of disease severity and readmitted area under the curve(AUC)were higher in COPD pa-tients,and the combination was significantly better than the single assessment(P＜0.05).Conclusion Serum levels of FSTL1 and GRP78 are significantly increased in COPD patients,which are correlated with the severi-ty of the disease and have a high value in evaluating the severity of the disease and readmission.

Objective:To investigate the overall drug resistance, drug resistance trend and distribution of drug resistance mutation sites in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) patients with antiviral therapy failure in Yunnan Province.Methods:The demographic data and genotype drug resistance of HIV/AIDS population with antiviral therapy failure in Yunnan Province from January 2021 to December 2023 were collected and analyzed by cross-sectional investigation. Statistical analyses were performed using chi-square test.Results:Among 15 159 HIV/AIDS patients, 12 215 cases tested positive by amplification. The circulating recombinant form (CRF) 08_BC was the predominant genetic subtype, accounting for 54.97%(6 714/12 215), followed by CRF01_AE (16.14%(1 972/12 215)) and CRF07_BC (14.48% (1 769/12 215)). When the viral load was ≥200 to <1 000 copies/mL, the incidence of drug resistance was 21.48%(99/461). When it was ≥1 000 to <10 000 copies/mL, the incidence was 51.29%(2 867/5 590). When it was ≥10 000 to <100 000 copies/mL, the incidence was 69.39% (3 979/5 734). When it was ≥100 000 copies/mL, the incidence was 81.86%(352/430). A total of 7 297 drug resistant cases were detected, with a drug resistance rate of 59.74% (7 297/12 215), thus the estimated drug resistance incidence rate among the antiviral treated population in Yunnan Province was 2.00% (7 297/364 238). From 2021 to 2023, the annual drug resistance rates among patients were 60.71%(2 554/4 207), 60.28%(1 671/2 772), and 58.67% (3 072/5 236), respectively, with no statistically significant difference ( χ2=4.47, P=0.107). Among the population with antiviral therapy failure, the drug resistance rates of non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI), nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI), and protease inhibitor (PI) were 93.70%(6 837/7 297), 44.10%(3 218/7 297) and 5.15%(376/7 297), respectively. The mutation sites with the highest frequencies among the three classes of drugs including NRTI, NNRTI and PI were M184V/I (46.13%(2 123/4 602)), K103N/S (37.14%(2 648/7 129)), L33F (15.50%(82/529)) and M46I/L (15.50%(82/529)), respectively. Analysis of the degree of drug resistance showed that among NNRTI drugs, nevirapine (49.01%(5 987/12 215)) and efavirenz (48.00%(5 863/12 215)) had the highest drug resistance rates, followed by emtricitabine (23.59%(2 882/12 215)) and lamivudine (23.58%(2 881/12 215)) among NRTI drugs. Conclusions:Among HIV/AIDS patients with antiviral therapy failure in Yunnan Province from 2021 to 2023, CRF08_BC is the main genetic subtype. The drug resistance rate of patients increases with the increase of HIV-1 viral load. There is no significant change in the drug resistance rate from 2021 to 2023. NNRTI has the highest drug resistance rate, followed by NRTI, and PI has the lowest. The main mutation sites are M184V/I for NRTI, K103N/S for NNRTI, and M46I/L and L33F for PI. The drug resistance rates of nevirapine, efavirenz, emtricitabine and lamivudine are relatively high.

Objective:To investigate the ultra-long-term antihypertensive efficacy, safety, major adverse events, and survival benefits of renal denervation (RDN) in patients with resistant hypertension (rHTN) and mild chronic kidney disease (CKD).Methods:This real-world, single-center retrospective study enrolled patients with rHTN and mild CKD who underwent RDN at Tianjin First Central Hospital between October 2011 and June 2016. Office blood pressure, home self-measured blood pressure, 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure, serum creatinine, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio were collected at baseline and at 1, 5, and 13 years post-RDN. The total daily defined dose of antihypertensive medications at 13 years post-RDN was recorded, along with endpoint events during follow-up, including cardiovascular death, all-cause death, hospitalization for heart failure, myocardial infarction, and stroke. Patients were stratified according to CKD stage (G1-G2 vs. G3a) and baseline systolic blood pressure (mild-to-moderate vs. severe hypertension), and follow-up data were compared across subgroups.Results:A total of 40 patients were included, aged (51±15) years, including 26 (65%) males. At the 13-year follow-up, office systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) decreased by (-32±20) mmHg and (-15±14) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), respectively; reductions in home self-measured blood pressure (SBP: (-25±14) mmHg, DBP: (-10±11) mmHg) and 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure (SBP: (-16±9 mmHg, DBP: (-10±6) mmHg) were also observed, alongside a reduction in the total daily defined dose of antihypertensive medications by (1.1±0.9) compared to baseline. Renal function assessments showed no significant differences at 13 years versus baseline in serum creatinine ((105±51) μmol/L vs. (96±22) μmol/L), estimated glomerular filtration rate ((72±22) ml·min -1·1.73 m -2 vs. (78±17) ml·min -1·1.73 m -2), or urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio ((101±86) mg/g vs. (127±82) mg/g) (all P>0.05). All-cause and cardiovascular mortality rates during follow-up were 13% (5/40) and 8% (3/40), respectively. Subgroup analysis results showed that, although CKD G1-G2 patients had smaller reductions in office SBP ((-31±20) mmHg vs. (-34±19) mmHg) and DBP ((-13±10) mmHg vs. (-25±18) mmHg) compared to G3a patients at 13 years, intergroup differences were not significant (all P>0.05). In contrast, severe hypertension subgroup exhibited greater reductions in office SBP ((-55±13) mmHg vs. (-20±10) mmHg) and DBP ((-24±17) mmHg vs. (-13±10) mmHg) versus mild-to-moderate hypertension subgroup (all P<0.05). Conclusion:RDN demonstrates sustained antihypertensive efficacy with favorable renal safety in rHTN patients with mild CKD. Patients with higher baseline systolic blood pressure may exhibit better responsiveness to RDN.

Objective:To analyze and elaborate on the concept connotation of fertility preservation, so as to provide guidance for clinical nursing practice.Methods:Research on fertility preservation was retrieved from databases including China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, VIP, SinoMed, PubMed, Cochrane Library, and CINAHL. The search period was from the establishment of the database to January 31, 2025. Literature was selected based on inclusion criteria and analyzed using Rodgers' evolutionary concept analysis method.Results:A total of 43 articles were included. The conceptual attributes of fertility preservation encompassed five aspects, including targeting individuals with reproductive needs, prioritizing prevention, covering multi-level medical interventions, relying on assisted reproductive technologies for preservation, and being oriented toward enhancing fertility capacity and quality. The implementation of fertility preservation was influenced by demographic factors, disease factors, medical resources, and cultural factors. The anticipated outcomes included not only delayed childbirth but also improved in patients' mental health, quality of life, and interpersonal relationships. However, this may also raise ethical concerns.Conclusions:Fertility preservation plays a vital role in maintaining birth rates and enhancing population quality. Defining the concept of fertility preservation helps healthcare providers understand its essence and provides a reference for developing scientifically grounded fertility preservation programs.
