Objective·To evaluate the relationship between anxiety level,alexithymia degree and quality of life in patients with anxiety disorders.Methods·Anxiety disorder patients admitted to the outpatient department of Shanghai Mental Health Center,Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from October 1,2020 to March 31,2023 were selected as the research subjects,and 438 patients were ultimately included after exclusion.Among them,there were 271 patients with generalized anxiety disorder,101 patients with panic disorder,48 patients with social anxiety disorder,12 patients with agoraphobia,and 6 patients with specific phobia.Hamilton Anxiety Scale(HAMA),Hamilton Depression Scale-17(HAMD-17),the twenty-item Toronto Alexithymia Scale(TAS-20)and World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale-Brief Form Questionnaire(WHOQOL-BREF)were used to assess the patients'anxiety level,depression level,alexithymia degree and quality of life,respectively,and the scale scores of patients with different subtypes of anxiety disorders were evaluated.Spearman correlation coefficient was used to analyze the correlation between anxiety level,depression level,alexithymia degree and quality of life in patients with anxiety disorders.Stepwise regression model was used to analyze the key variables affecting the quality of life in patients with anxiety disorders.Results·There were no significant differences in HAMA score,HAMD-17 score and TAS-20 score among patients with different subtypes of anxiety disorders,but the differences in WHOQOL-BRIEF score were statistically significant(H=10.076,P=0.039).The results of Spearman correlation analysis showed that the WHOQOL-BRIEF score of anxiety disorder patients was negatively correlated with HAMA score,HAMD-17 score and TAS-20 score(r=-0.256,P=0.000;r=-0.311,P=0.000;r=-0.342,P=0.000).The results of stepwise regression analysis showed that age,HAMA score,HAMD-17 score and TAS-20 score had significant impact on the quality of life of patients(all P<0.05).Conclusion·The quality of life in patients with different subtypes of anxiety disorders is different.The anxiety level,depression level and alexithymia degree are the key variables affecting their quality of life.

Objective:To study the correlation between myopia growth and physical development of primary school student in Shihezi area of Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region by measuring the ocular biometry and physical parameters of the eye, and to provide an objective basis for the development of myopia prevention and control.Methods:A cross-sectional study design was used. The Grade 1-6 students from 33 schools in Shihezi area were randomly selected in October 2023. The children were classified according to age into the low age group (6-9 years) and the high age group (10-13 years).The children′s height, weight, axial length (AL), maximum keratometry (steepest keratometry, K1), and minimum keratometry (flattest keratometry, K1) were measured. The body mass index (BMI), keratometric astigmatism (ΔK), mean keratometry (K), corneal radius (CR) and AL/CR were calculated. Correlation analyses were performed between ocular biometry and physical parameters. LASSO regression analysis was used to screen the best variables, and linear regression models were constructed after adjusting for confounding factors of age and sex.Results:A total of 3 986 children aged 6-13 years were included in this study, including 2 094 boys (52.53%) and 1 892 girls (47.47%); 2 162 in the lower age group and 1 824 in the upper age group. Girls had higher K, ΔK and AL/CR values than boys (43.38 D vs 42.7 D, t=-7.84, P<0.01; 1.1 D vs 1.01 D, t=-2.14, P=0.03; 2.97 vs 2.96, t=3.32, P=0.02). Boys had higher AL, height, weight and BMI than girls (23.47 mm vs 23.02 mm, t=13.77, P<0.01; 1.34 m vs 1.33 m, t=3.02, P=0.03; 32 kg vs 29.5 kg, t=7.82, P<0.01; 17.4 vs 16.52, t=10.36, P<0.01). LASSO regression was used to screen the 3 physical parameter variables (height, weight, and BMI) to determine that height was the best physical parameter variable for AL/CR. After adjusting for confounders, it was shown that in the low age group (6-9 years), there was a significant positive correlation between children′s height and AL/CR ( b=0.174, 95% CI: 0.106 to 0.241, P<0.001), whereas in the high age group (10-13 years), there was no correlation between children′s height and AL/CR ( b=0.086, 95% CI:-0.038 to 0.21, P=0.174). Conclusion:There was a positive correlation between height and myopia growth in the lower age group of children in Shihezi area, Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region; there was no correlation between height and myopia growth in the higher age group.

The bile acid-responsive G-protein-coupled receptor TGR5 is expressed in monocytes and macrophages, and plays a critical role in regulating inflammatory response. Our previous work has shown its role in promoting the progression of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), yet the mechanism remains unclear. Here, using Tgr5-knockout mice, we show that TGR5 is required for M2 polarization of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) and suppresses antitumor immunity in NSCLC via involving TAMs-mediated CD8+ T cell suppression. Mechanistically, we demonstrate that TGR5 promotes TAMs into protumorigenic M2-like phenotypes via activating cAMP-STAT3/STAT6 signaling. Induction of cAMP production restores M2-like phenotypes in TGR5-deficient macrophages. In NSCLC tissues from human patients, the expression of TGR5 is associated with the infiltration of TAMs. The co-expression of TGR5 and high TAMs infiltration are associated with the prognosis and overall survival of NSCLC patients. Together, this study provides molecular mechanisms for the protumor function of TGR5 in NSCLC, highlighting its potential as a target for TAMs-centric immunotherapy in NSCLC.

Objective To investigate the effect of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) on the lung injury during one-lung ventilation (OLV) in the patients undergoing thoracic surgery.Methods Eighty patients scheduled for elective radical operation for esophageal cancer,were randomly divided into 2 groups (n=40 each) using a random number table.control group (group C) and group RIPC.At 0 (T1),30 min (T2),1 h (T3) and 2 h (T4) of OLV,blood samples were obtained from the radial artery for blood gas analysis and determination of plasma concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α),interleukin-1β (IL-1ββ) and IL-10.Oxygenation index(OI),respiratory index(RI) and PaO2/PAO2 were calculated.Exhaled breath condensate was collected and the pH value was measured.Results Compared with group C,Oxygenation index was significantly increased,and respiratory index was decreased at T2-T4,the plasma concentrations of TNF-α and IL-1β were decreased,and the pH value of exhaled breath condensate was increased at T3-T4,and the plasma concentration of IL-10 was increased at T4 in group RIPC.Conclusion RIPC can inhibit inflammatory responses and reduce airway acidification,thus attenuating the lung injury during OLV in the patients undergoing thoracic surgery.

Objective To investigate the effects of different values of PEEP on cardiac index (CI), stroke volume variation (SVV) and oxygen transport index (DO2I) in patients monitored by FloTrac/Vigileo system, and to provide some references for the hemodynamic management and improvement of oxygenation for patients. Methods Sixty patients scheduled for elective television (TV) auxiliary thoracoscope radical operation for esophageal cancer were included in this study. Data of CI, SVV and DO2I were observed by the FloTrac/Vigileo system. Changes of CI, SVV and DO2I were recorded after anesthesia induction and turn left side (T0), artificial pneumothorax with 0 PEEP after 5 minutes (T1), artificial pneumothorax with 5 PEEP after 5 minutes (T2), artificial pneumothorax with 10 PEEP after 5 minutes (T3), and artificial pneumothorax with 15 PEEP after 5 minutes (T4). Results Compared with T0, CI decreased and SVV increased significantly at T1, T2, T3 and T4(P<0.05). Compared with T1, CI decreased and SVV increased at T4. DO2I increased at T2 and T3 compared with that of T1(P<0.05). Conclusion PEEP may have a certain influence on CI and SVV in the process of operation. The values of 5-10 PEEP can significantly improve oxygenation and have a less influence on hemodynamics, which can be appropriately used in clinical care.
