Objective: To explore the relationship between non suicidal self injury (NSSI) behavior and serum lipid levels as well as thyroid function among college students with depression. Methods: A total of 169 college students with depression in the psychiatry departments of tertiary hospitals (grade 3A and 3B) in Ningbo from December 2023 to April 2025 were selected. The Adolescent Self injury Scale (ASIS) was used to assess the presence of NSSI, and participants were accordingly divided into a NSSI group ( n =51) and a non NSSI group ( n =118). General demographic data (including gender, age, and family situation) were collected from both groups. Blood tests were performed to measure lipid profiles [triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)] and thyroid hormones [triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4), free triiodothyronine (FT3), free thyroxine (FT4), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH)]. Multivariate Logistic regression was employed to analyze risk factors for NSSI, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to evaluate the predictive value of serum lipid and thyroid hormone levels for NSSI occurrence in college students with depression. Results: The levels of TC, LDL-C, and TSH in the NSSI group were (4.02±0.73) mmol/L, (2.32±0.36) mmol/L, and (6.57±1.95) mU/L , which were significantly higher than those in the non NSSI group [(3.41±0.56) mmol/L, (2.00±0.27) mmol/L, and ( 4.48± 1.09) mU/L, respectively] ( t =5.32, 5.60, 7.20, all P <0.05). Logistic regression analysis revealed that college students from single parent/reconstituted families, those who had experienced school bullying, and those with higher levels of TC, LDL-C, and TSH had a significantly increased risk of engaging in NSSI ( OR =5.22, 6.12, 5.90, 83.64, 3.64, all P <0.05). ROC curve analysis demonstrated that the combined detection of TC, LDL-C, and TSH had high diagnostic efficacy for predicting NSSI in college students with depression, with a sensitivity of 86.3% and a specificity of 94.9%. Conclusions NSSI behavior in college students with depression is associated with serum lipid levels and thyroid function. These biomarkers may serve as useful reference indicators for assessing the conditions of these patients.

AIM:To investigate the value of optical coherence tomography angiography(OCTA)indicators in the diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy(DR), and to provide patients with diabetic nephropathy(DN)with more sensitive OCTA screening indicators to detect concurrent DR at an early stage.METHODS: A total of 200 patients who treated in the ophthalmology department of the Seventh Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University from 2022 to 2023 were included, including 95 first-diagnosed DR patients and 105 patients without DR, and all patients underwent OCTA examination and a collection of demographics and renal function parameters. After a quality check, automated measurements of the foveal avascular zone area, vessel density(VD), and perfusion density(PD)of both 3 mm×3 mm and 6 mm×6 mm windows were obtained.RESULTS: Using random forest and multivariate Logistic regression methods, we developed a diagnostic model for DR based on 12 variables(age, FBG, SBP, DBP, HbA1c, ALT, ALP, urea/Scr, DM duration, HUA, DN, and CMT). Adding specific OCTA parameters enhanced the efficacy of the existing diagnostic model for DR(outer vessel density in 6 mm×6 mm window, AUC=0.837 vs 0.819, P=0.03). In the study of DN patients, the parameters in the 6 mm×6 mm window improved the diagnostic efficacy of DR(inner VD; outer VD; full VD; outer PD; full PD).CONCLUSION:The outer VD in the 6 mm×6 mm window can enhance the efficacy of the traditional DR diagnostic model. Meanwhile, compared with the 3 mm×3 mm window, the microvascular parameters in the 6 mm× 6 mm window focusing on DN patients can be more sensitive to diagnosing the occurrence of DR.

TCM believes that the main pathogenesis of gastrointestinal dysfunction (GD) after laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is spleen and stomach weakness, liver and stomach disharmony, liver depression and spleen deficiency, and intestinal depression. Moxibustion in the treatment of GD after LC can avoid the aggravation of gastrointestinal burden caused by oral drugs. The intervention methods mainly include suspension moxibustion, umbilical moxibustion, heat sensitive moxibustion, thunder fire moxibustion, warm acupuncture, partition moxibustion, etc. Moxibustion is often performed on the acupoints in liver meridian, spleen meridian, stomach meridian, small intestine meridian, large intestine meridian and Conception Vessel, such as Taichong (LR3), Ganshu (BL18), Yinlingquan (SP9), Zusanli (ST36), Tianshu (ST25), Wangu (SI4), Hegu (LI4), Zhongwan (CV12), Shenque (CV8) and Qihai (CV6). At present, most studies combined with moxibustion on the basis of conventional Western medicine treatment can significantly improve the efficacy, and have certain advantages in improving gastrointestinal motility decline, intestinal flora imbalance, first exhaust time, gastrointestinal hormone level disorder and intestinal mucosal barrier dysfunction. However, there are still some problems in the existing research: small sample size of clinical research, not perfect scoring scale, not unified treatment plan and operation standard, relatively scarce basic research, relatively simple acupoint research, lack of biochemical evaluation indicators, and the research of national moxibustion needs to be explored and improved in the future.

Objective: To investigate the inhibitory effect of polydopamine (PDA) on enamel demineralization in isolated teeth and the induction of hydroxyapatite (HA) production on the surface of demineralized enamel to provide a novel protocol for the prevention and treatment of enamel demineralization. Methods: Twenty isolated bovine teeth were cut into 20 enamel slices and randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group, with 10 slices in each group. The enamel slices in the experimental group were immersed in 2 mg/mL freshly prepared dopamine solution and incubated for 24 hours at room temperature in the dark to prepare the PDA coating, while the control group was left untreated. Then, the isolated bovine teeth, with and without PDA coating, were immersed in artificial demineralization solution at 37 °C for 3 days, followed by 7 days in simulated body fluid (SBF), and the immersion solution was changed daily. The surface morphology of enamel was observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the calcium/phosphorus ratio of the enamel surface was analyzed by energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and the characteristic functional groups in enamel deposits were analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Results: Compared with the control group, the number of demineralized pores produced after 3 d of enamel demineralization with polydopamine coating was less, and the diameter was smaller. EDS elemental analysis showed that the Ca/P ratio after enamel demineralization was 2.37 in the experimental group, which was smaller than the 2.53 ratio in the control group. In the remineralization experiment, after 7 days of remineralization of PDA coated enamel in the experimental group, lamellar grains were produced on the enamel surface, and the growth showed obvious directionality, growth regularity and uniform arrangement. In the control group, the surface of enamel was flocculent mineral deposit, and the crystallinity was poor. The FTIR results proved that the enamel surface deposit of PDA-coated enamel was HA after 7 d of remineralization. Conclusion PDA can affect the nucleation process of HA and promote the production of HA on the surface of demineralized enamel.

Objective:To analyze the etiology and clinical characteristics of hospitalized children with fever and cervical lymphadenopathy in general hospital, so as to provide evidence for clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods:Fifty-six children with fever and cervical lymphadenopathy in the pediatric ward at the Peking University Third Hospital from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2020 were analyzed retrospectively.They were divided into<6 years old group( n=33) and ≥6 years old group( n=23) according to their ages.The differences of etiological composition among different age groups were analyzed.According to the causes of disease, the cases were divided into infectious disease group and non-infectious disease group.The dynamic changes of etiological composition year by year were analyzed, and the laboratory examination and treatment of children were summarized. Results:Among the 56 cases, 53 cases were confirmed, including 17 cases(30.36%)of acute suppurative lymphadenitis, 13 cases(23.21%)of Kawasaki disease, 13 cases(23.21%)of infectious mononucleosis, seven cases(12.50%)of respiratory tract infection and three cases(5.36%)of histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis.As for Kawasaki disease, there were significantly more children in the <6 years old group than that in the ≥ 6 years old group( P=0.005). During the past 5 years, the proportion of infectious diseases have decreased year by year, and the proportion of non-infectious diseases have increased year by year.The difference was statistically significant( χ2=11.443, P=0.022). The levels of leukocyte, neutrophil and quick C-reactive protein in children with non-infectious diseases were higher than those in infectious disease group.The differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05). Among the 56 children, 54 cases(96.4%)were treated with antibiotics.There was no significant difference in the usage rate of antibiotics between the infectious disease group and the non-infectious disease group( χ2=0.019, P=0.890). Conclusion:The main diseases of fever with cervical lymphadenopathy in pediatric inpatients in general hospital are acute suppurative lymphadenitis, Kawasaki disease and infectious mononucleosis, respectively.During the past 5 years, the proportion of non-infectious diseases has increased year by year, but the usage rate of antibiotics has not declined.Clinical attention should be paid to the rational use of antibiotics.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) and prognosis of extranodal nasal NK/T cell lymphoma (ENKTL).Methods:The data of 184 patients with ENKTL who were admitted to Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital and the Second People's Hospital of Datong in Shanxi Province from January 2002 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Contal-O'Quigley variable point method was used to calculate the optimal cut-off value of ALC for predicting the prognosis of ENKTL, and the patients were divided into two groups based on this value. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the survival of the two groups of patients. Cox proportional hazard regression model was used for univariate and multivariate survival analyses.Results:According to the Contal-O'Quigley variable point method, the best cut-off value of ALC for predicting ENKTL prognosis was 1.5×10 9/L. According to this value, patients were divided into ALC>1.5×10 9/L group (98 cases) and ALC≤1.5×10 9/L group (86 cases). Compared with the ALC≤1.5×10 9/L group, the proportions of patients with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score ≥2 points, serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)> 245 U/L, Korean prognostic index (KPI) score 2-4 points and international prognostic index (IPI) score 2-5 points were lower in the ALC>1.5×10 9/L group, but the proportion of patients with hemoglobin > 120 g/L was higher (all P < 0.05). The overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in the ALC>1.5×10 9/L group were better than those in the ALC≤1.5×10 9/L group (3-year OS rate: 65.7% vs. 45.4%, 5-year OS rate: 61.0% vs. 36.6%; 3-year PFS rate: 61.7% vs. 41.0%, 5-year PFS rate: 51.9% vs. 32.2%; all P < 0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that ECOG score, serum LDH level, ALC, radiotherapy and L-asparaginase-containing chemotherapy were independent influencing factors of OS and PFS (all P < 0.05), and for OS, when ALC>1.5×10 9/L compared with≤1.5×10 9/L, RR was 0.634 (95% CI 0.398-1.008, P=0.050), and for PFS, RR was 0.625 (95% CI 0.406-0.962, P=0.033). Conclusion:Patients with high ALC have good prognosis, and therefore ALC may be a powerful prognostic factor of ENKTL.

Objective:To construct the pET30a-EgG1Y162-2 prokaryotic expression plasmid and induce the expression of EgG1Y162-2 protein, so as to provide a research basis for development of Echinococcus granulosus vaccine. Methods:Using Echinococcus granulosus cDNA as a template, the target gene of EgG1Y162-2 was synthesized by PCR, and after digestion with restriction enzymes EcoRⅠ and Hind Ⅲ, it was connected to the prokaryotic expression vector pET30a to construct the recombinant plasmid pET30a-EgG1Y162-2. The recombinant plasmid was transformed into competent cell BL21 (DE3) and induced by isopropyl β-D-thiogalactoside (IPTG) to express a large number of proteins. The recombinant protein was purified by affinity chromatography. The purification level was analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), and the expression product was identified by Western blotting. Results:The recombinant plasmid pET30a-EgG1Y162-2 was successfully constructed. After inducting expression, the bacterial supernatant and the eluate were both at a relative molecular weight of about 15 × 10 3, and the protein antigen component eluted with 200 mmol/L imidazole was relatively pure. Western blotting results showed that the purified recombinant protein EgG1Y162-2 with His tag could be recognized by His monoclonal antibody. Conclusion:The pET30a-EgG1Y162-2 prokaryotic expression plasmid of Echinococcus granulosus is successfully constructed, and the recombinant protein of EgG1Y162-2 is induced to express, laying a foundation for further study on anti- Echinococcus granulosus vaccine.

Objective:To explore the effect of therapeutic communication on infusion safety, disease uncertainty, coping styles, anxiety and depression in patients with emergency infusion.Methods:A total of 126 patients treated with infusion patients in emergency department in Jiangsu Provincial People's Hospital, the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from July 2019 to December 2019 were selected and divided into two groups by random digits table method with 63 cases in each group. Patients in the control group received routine nursing, and patients in the intervention group received therapeutic communication nursing intervention on this basis. The incidence of adverse events of infusion during the intervention of the two groups of patients was observed. The disease uncertainty, coping styles, anxiety and depression were evaluated by Mishel's Uncertainty in Illness Scale (MUIS), Medical Coping Mode Questionnaire (MCMQ), Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-rating Depressive Scale (SDS) before and after intervention.Results:The final collection of 109 patients with complete questionnaire, the recovery rate was 86.51% (109/126), including 55 cases in the intervention group, 54 cases in the control group. The incidence of adverse events of infusion was 16.36%(9/55) in the intervention group and 29.63%(16/54) in the control group, and there was significant difference( χ2 value was 5.057, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the score of MUIS, MCMQ, SAS, SDS before the intervention between the two groups ( P>0.05). After the intervention, the uncertainty, unpredictability, lack of information and complexity dimension of the intervention group patients' MUIS scores were respectively (17.76 ± 2.49), (12.03 ± 2.51), (11.82 ± 2.12), (11.74 ± 2.24), which were lower than those in the control group (24.72 ± 2.94), (16.31 ± 2.27), (16.13 ± 2.51), (15.39 ± 2.31), the differences were significant( t values were -13.346- -8.375, P<0.05). The confront score of the intervention group patients' MCMQ was (19.13 ± 2.62) higher than that in the control group(13.79 ± 1.96), the avoidance and yield scores were respectively (8.71 ± 1.34), (9.81 ± 1.17), which were lower than those in the control group (14.57 ± 1.93), (15.12 ± 1.86), the differences were significant( t values were 12.031, -18.441, -17.875, P<0.05). The scores of SAS and SDS in the intervention group were (29.43 ± 3.62), (27.67 ± 3.11) respectively, which were lower than those in the control group (37.44 ± 5.31), (40.12 ± 4.92), the differences were significant( t values were -9.216, -15.821, P<0.05). Conclusions:Therapeutic communication can reduce the risk of emergency infusion, reduce the uncertainty of patients to the disease, improve patients' countermeasures to the disease, relieve patients' anxiety and depression, and improve the nursing quality of emergency infusion patients.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effects of orthokeratology lens on children with myopic anisometropia.Methods:Retrospective case series study. The data of 226 myopic anisometropia children, (10.83±1.56)years old, including 95 males and 131 females, fitted with orthokeratology(OK) lens in Beijing Tongren Hospital from June 2017 to June 2019 were collected. According to the lens wearing condition and baseline anisometropia, they were divided into four groups: group A1 with an average age of (10.68±1.66) years (bilateral OK lens wearing with low anisometropia, 1.0 D≤SE difference<2.5 D, 50 males and 61 females), group A2 with an average age of (11.24±1.38) years (bilateral OK lens wearing with moderate and high anisometropia, SE difference≥2.5 D, 10 males and 23 females), group B1 with an average age of (10.79±1.51) years (unilateral OK lens wearing with low anisometropia, 1.0 D≤SE difference<2.5 D, 17 males and 21 females) and group B2 with an average age of (10.97±1.60) years (unilateral OK lens wearing with moderate and high anisometropia, SE difference≥2.5 D, 18 males and 26 females). After wearing OK lens for one year, the changes of axial length(AL) and AL difference were observed and statistically analyzed.Results:(1) AL changes: after wearing OK-lens for one year, AL of each eye increased. In group A1, the AL of the more myopic eyes and the less myopic eyes increased by (0.20±0.21) mm and (0.24±0.22) mm respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-3.208, P=0.002); in group A2, the AL growth of the more myopic eyes and the less myopic eyes were (0.04±0.11) mm and (0.17±0.14) mm, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-5.545, P<0.001). In group B1, the AL elongation of the more myopic eyes and the less myopic eyes were (0.14±0.21) mm and (0.39±0.23) mm, and in group B2, the AL growth of the more myopic eyes and the less myopic eyes were (0.11±0.14) mm and (0.54±0.24) mm, with statistically significant differences( t=-6.533, -11.643; all P<0.001). There was a linear correlation between AL elongation and age of the more myopic eyes and the less myopic eyes in group A1(corrected R 2=0.208, 0.237) and group A2 (corrected R 2=0.169, 0.360). There was no linear correlation of the more myopic eyes and the less myopic eyes between AL change and age or baseline myopia in group B1 ( F=0.514, 1.205; P=0.602, 0.312) and group B2 ( F=0.841, 0.056; P=0.439, 0.946). (2)Change of AL difference: after wearing OK lens for one year, the changes of AL difference in groupA1, A2, B1 and B2 were (-0.04±0.14) mm,(-0.13±0.13) mm,(-0.26±0.24) mm and (-0.43±0.25) mm, and the decrease of AL difference in moderate and high anisometropia groups were greater than that in low anisometropia groups ( t =-3.211, -3.180; P=0.002, 0.002).There was a linear correlation between the reduction of AL difference and baseline anisometropia in group A1, A2 and B2 (corrected R 2=0.099, 0.149, 0.230), and there was no linear relationship between the decrease of AL difference and the baseline anisometropia in group B1 ( F=0.014, P=0.908). Conclusions:Orthokeratology could effectively control the progression of myopia and to treat anisometropia. The effect of myopia control was better in the older binocular OK lens wearers, and for the patients with greater baseline anisometropia, the treatment effect of anisometropia was better.
