ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases and their influencing factors in community-based schizophrenia patients in Shanghai, and to provide a scientific basis for the early identification and prevention of cardiovascular disease in this population. MethodsBased on the Shanghai community cohort with severe mental disorders in 2022, a total of 3 954 community-based schizophrenia patients were identified and included in this study through a stratified cluster sampling method. Basic information and relevant clinical data (including metabolic index data) were collected through questionnaire survey, physical examination and laboratory testing. Univariate analyses were performed using the chi-square tests, and multivariate logistic regression analyses were employed to identify influencing factors of comorbid cardiovascular diseases. ResultsA total of 3 954 community-based schizophrenia patients were included, of which a total of 1 237 (31.28%) patients had comorbid cardiovascular diseases. Multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that age 60 years old or above (OR=5.524, 95%CI: 3.716‒8.214), smoking behavior (OR=1.328, 95%CI: 1.042‒1.692), overweight (OR=1.900, 95%CI: 1.046‒3.451) or obesity (OR=2.678, 95%CI: 1.439‒4.985), elevated blood pressure (OR=1.546, 95%CI: 1.294‒1.846), abnormal fasting blood glucose (OR=1.552, 95%CI: 1.322‒1.823) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol abnormalities (OR=1.283, 95%CI: 1.025‒1.606) were positively associated with the risk of comorbid cardiovascular diseases in patients with schizophrenia, while educational attainment of college/bachelor’s degree or above (OR=0.640, 95%CI: 0.450‒0.910) and being unmarried (OR=0.552, 95%CI: 0.457‒0.667) were negatively associated with the risk of cardiovascular diseases comorbidity. ConclusionAdvanced age, unhealthy behaviors and lifestyles, as well as abnormalities in blood pressure, blood glucose, and blood lipids, could all increase the risk of comorbid cardiovascular diseases in community schizophrenia patients. It is suggested to strengthen the monitoring and management of these risk factors in this population in the future, so as to achieve early detection, early diagnosis and early intervention of cardiovascular diseases.

ObjectiveTo investigate the current status of emergency management for severe mental disorders in Shanghai, and to provide countermeasures and suggestions for the establishment of a sound emergency management system for severe mental disorders and the enhancement of emergency management capability. MethodsA questionnaire survey and qualitative interviews were used to conduct an investigation into the emergency management in 17 district-level mental illness prevention and control institutions in Shanghai, which includes the basic situation of emergency management for severe mental disorders, the construction of emergency response teams and personnel, emergency preparedness drills and training, emergency management plans and rules and regulations, and problems encountered in emergency management. ResultsIn terms of emergency management mechanism and basic situation, resources such as personnel allocation, security funds and green channel were well equipped in each district-level mental illness prevention and control institution in Shanghai. However, the equipment of some hardware facilities was still insufficient to some extent. Therefore, further improvement on the emergency management mechanism for severe mental disorders was needed. With regard to the construction of emergency team and personnel allocation, the majority were those aged between 35‒<45 years old, with a bachelor’s degree, and more than 10 years of working experience. For example, 90.27% staff in district-level mental illness prevention and control institution had a bachelor’s degree or above, which was higher than that among the staff in community-level (73.60%); staff majored in clinical medicine in district-level institution accounted for the proportion at 52.71%, higher than that among the staff in community-level (28.86%); 57.24% staff in district-level institution had an intermediate professional title, higher than that among the staff in community-level (42.28%); and 69.90% staff in district-level institution had more than 10 years of working experience, higher than that among the staff in community-level (43.62%). In the aspect of emergency drills and training, all district-level mental illness prevention and control institutions in Shanghai had a high demand for emergency training, and the weak aspects mainly focused on lack of emergency service protocols, skills of addressing technical challenges, and construction of effectiveness evaluation system. Moreover, the teaching methods were primarily centered on case analysis, simulation drills, interactive discussions, and so forth. Concerning emergency management plans and rules and regulations, all districts in Shanghai had relatively established well-developed systems for emergency response plans, emergency response leadership groups, and emergency response operational task forces for severe mental disorders. About half of the institutions had established other rules and regulations related to emergency management of severe mental disorders in addition to emergency plans. ConclusionShanghai has initially established an emergency management system for severe mental disorders, but it is still fragile in specialized training for emergency management of severe mental disorders, construction of emergency management mechanisms, and the building-up of grassroots emergency teams. Further priorities should include strengthening emergency management training, enhancing the construction of emergency management personnel teams, and gradually establishing a more comprehensive and integrated emergency management mechanism for severe mental disorders.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of postpartum depression(PPD),parenting self-efficacy,and empathy ability in elderly parturients during the puerperium,and analyze their cor-relations.Methods A total of 506 elderly parturients who gave birth in the obstetrics department from January 2021 to December 2023 were selected as study subjects.Basic demographic informa-tion,including age,education level,marital status,employment status,and family income per month,was collected through a questionnaire survey.The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale(EPDS)was used to assess the occurrence of PPD.Based on the presence or absence of PPD,elderly parturients were divided into PPD group and non-PPD(NPPD)group.The Parenting Self-Efficacy Scale(PMPS-E)was employed to evaluate parenting self-efficacy,and the Empathy Quotient Scale(EQ)was used to assess empathy ability.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to explore independent risk factors for PPD in elderly parturients.Spearman correlation analysis was used to ex-amine the relationships between PPD,parenting self-efficacy,and empathy ability.Pearson correlation analysis was employed to investigate the relationship between parenting self-efficacy and empathy ability in elderly parturients.Results A total of 495 valid surveys were collected,with a response rate of 97.82％.The survey results showed that parturients aged 35 to 40 accounted for the highest proportion(45.25％).The majority had an undergraduate or junior college education level,ac-counting for 44.65％.Married parturients accounted for 85.45％.Among occupational distribu-tions,those without fixed employment were more common,accounting for 40.00％.Most families had a monthly income of 5,000 to 10,000 Chinese yuan,accounting for 41.41％.Cesarean sec-tion was the predominant mode of delivery,accounting for 43.43％.The PMPS-E and EQ scores of elderly parturients in the PPD group were lower than those in the NPPD group(P＜0.05).Statisti-cally significant differences were observed between the PPD and NPPD groups in terms of education level,employment status,marital status,and family monthly income(P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that low education level,unstable marital status,lack of fixed employment,and low family income per month were independent risk factors for PPD(P＜0.05).Spearman correlation analysis indicated negative correlations of PPD with parenting self-efficacy and empathy ability(r=-0.475,-0.382;P＜0.05).Pearson correlation analysis demonstrated a positive correlation between parenting self-efficacy and empathy ability(r=0.426;P＜0.05).Conclusion PPD in elderly parturients is closely related to their parenting self-efficacy and empa-thy ability.Education level,marital status,lack of fixed employment,and family income are factors influencing the occurrence of PPD.

Forty adult male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into four groups:the control group,Salmonella typhimurium(S.typhimurium)(ST)group,phlorizin(PHZ)+S.typhimuri-um(ST)group,and PHZ(80 mg/kg)group,with 10 mice in each group.Morphological observa-tion,HE staining,ELISA,immunofluorescence and Western blot were performed,the results showed that PHZ significantly increased the cecal index,decreased the spleen index of S.typhi-murium-induced mice(P＜0.05),and reduce the pathological damage of cecum in mice.Mean-while,PHZ treatment also significantly reduced colonization of S.typhimurium in the cecum,spleen,mesenteric lymph nodes and liver(P＜0.05).The results of ELISA showed that PHZ treatment also significantly inhibited the S.ty phimurium-induced increase in the expression of IL-1β,INF-γ,TNF-a and IL-6 in the cecum of mice(P＜0.05).Immunofluorescence and Western blot results showed that PHZ significantly increased the protein expression levels of Occludin,Claudin-3,and ZO-1 in the cecal barrier of mice induced by S.typhimurium(P＜0.05).These results con-firmed that phlorizin could improve cecal inflammation and intestinal barrier damage induced by S.typhimurium in mice.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of olapalib in the treatment of platinum-sensitive recurrent breast cancer susceptibility gene (BRCA)-mutated ovarian cancer.Methods:The clinical data of 105 patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent BRCA-mutated ovarian cancer confirmed by pathology/imaging from October 2020 to March 2023 in Baoding Second Central Hospital were selected retrospectively, and they were divided into the control group (52 cases) and the experimental group (53 cases) according to the treatment methods. The control group was treated with a platinum-containing regimen, followed by olaparib at the end of the treatment. The experimental group was treated with olaparib. The recent clinical outcomes, tumour marker levels, ovarian cancer functional assessment of treatment questionnaire (FACT-O) score, cancer fatigue scale (CFS) score, and adverse reaction were compared between the two groups. The survival curve was drawn by Kaplan-Meier, and the prognosis was compared.Results:The overall response rate clinical in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group: 64.15%(34/53) vs.44.23%(23/52), there was a statistical difference ( χ2 = 4.20, P<0.05). After treatment, the levels of serum glycoantigen (CA) 125, CA153, human epithelial protein 4 (HE4), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group: (42.35 ± 6.85) kU/L vs. (46.64 ± 7.11) kU/L, (24.26 ± 4.58) kU/L vs. (26.74 ± 5.20) kU/L, (144.25 ± 19.85) pmol/L vs. (155.64 ± 21.26) pmol/L, (335.32 ± 38.41) μg/L vs. (359.47 ± 41.24) μg/L; the FACT-O scores in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group: (55.24 ± 6.85)scores vs. (51.26 ± 7.19) scores; the CFS scores in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group: (38.51 ± 6.11) scores vs. (44.94 ± 8.38) scores, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05).After treatment, the rate of dizziness, nausea, leukopenia, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and anemia in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group ( P<0.05). The results of the survival curve showed that the median progression-free survival in the experimental group was longer than that in the control group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Single-agent olaparib is effective in treating platinum-sensitive recurrent BRCA-mutated ovarian cancer, and can improve quality of life, reduce anemia and adverse reaction, and prolong patients′ median survival.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of transvaginal contrastenhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in differentiating benign from malignant endometrial lesions and assessing the extent of myometrial invasion. Methods: A total of 70 patients who underwent surgery for endometrial lesions at the authors’ hospital were selected. Transvaginal ultrasound examination and CEUS were performed for quantitative and qualitative analysis. Based on the CEUS results, an International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) disease grade was assigned and compared with pathological findings. Results: Postmenopausal vaginal bleeding is a key clinical manifestation of endometrial carcinoma. Among the patients with endometrial carcinoma, compared with normal myometrium, the lesion areas exhibited a greater rate of rise (defined as enhanced intensity divided by enhancement time) and a shorter half-clearance time (P<0.05). These findings suggest that in endometrial carcinoma, the contrast agent displays a "fast-in/fast-out/hyperenhancement" perfusion pattern. In contrast, the characteristic perfusion pattern for benign endometrial lesions is low enhancement (P<0.05). The diagnostic accuracy of CEUS in detecting myometrial invasion was 88% (22 of 25 cases). Conclusion Transvaginal CEUS is a practical and effective diagnostic imaging method for distinguishing between benign and malignant endometrial lesions. It can also be used to evaluate the depth of myometrial invasion in patients with early-stage endometrial carcinoma.
