Objective To explore the mediating effect of empowerment ability between type D personality and self-management behavior of patients with diabetes mellitus(DM).Methods A total of 738 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)hospitalized in the Department of Endocrinology of three tertiary hospitals in Hainan Province from December 2022 to May 2023 were selected and divided into Type D personality(Type D,n=104)group and T2DM group(n=634).The general data,biochemical indexes,scores of negative emotion(NA),social inhibition(SI),empowerment ability,and scale of DM self-management activities(SDSCA)were compared between the two groups,and the correlation between type D personality,empowerment ability and self-management ability was analyzed.The mediating effect model was used to analyze the mediating effect of empowerment ability on the four self-management behaviors of patients with type D personality,and the chain mediating effect model was used to analyze the relationship between type D personality,empowerment ability,self-management behaviors and HbA1c.Results Compared with the T2DM group,HbA1c,proportion of rural residence,proportion of complications≥3,proportion of education level of junior high school or above,proportion of monthly income<3000 yuan,and NA and SI scores were significantly higher in the Type D group(P<0.05).The empowerment ability and scores of healthy diet,regular exercise,blood glucose monitoring and medication compliance were lower in the Type D group than in the T2DM group(P<0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that the empowerment ability score was positively correlated with the scores of healthy diet,regular exercise,blood glucose monitoring and medication compliance(P<0.05).NA and SI scores were negatively correlated with empowerment ability score,healthy diet,regular exercise,blood glucose monitoring and medication compliance(P<0.05).The results of model analysis with empowerment ability as the mediating variable showed that type D personality had direct,indirect and total effects on regular exercise,blood glucose monitoring,medication compliance and SDSCA total score(P<0.05),and indirect and total effects on regular diet score(P<0.05).The mediating effect of empowerment ability was significant(Bootstrap CI did not include 0).The chain mediating effect analysis showed that type D personality could indirectly affect HbA1c through empowerment ability,healthy diet(γ=0.389,95%CI 0.206～0.591),and medication compliance(γ=0.149,95%CI 0.040～0.265),and the effect proportion was 39.4%and 14.1%,respectively.Conclusions Type D personality can indirectly influence self-management behavior through the mediating effect of empowerment,and simultaneously affecting HbA1c through the chain effect of empowerment,diet,and medication behavior.

Objective:To investigate the correlations among diabetes-related distress, self-management behavior, empowerment, and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) .Methods:A convenience sampling method was used to recruit a total of 1 927 hospitalized patients with T2DM from the Endocrinology Departments of five tertiary general hospitals in Hainan, Jiangsu, and Henan Provinces between December 2022 and December 2023. General demographic and clinical data were collected. The Problem Areas in Diabetes 5 (PAID-5), the Summary of Diabetes Self Care Activities (SDSCA), and the Diabetes Empowerment Scale-Short Form (DES-SF) were used to evaluate patients' psychological distress, self-management behaviors, and empowerment levels. Pearson correlation analysis was performed to examine the relationships among diabetes-related distress, empowerment, self-management behaviors, and HbA1c levels.Results:Pearson correlation analysis showed that diabetes-related distress was negatively correlated with empowerment ( r=-0.119, P<0.001) and the total score of self-management behavior ( r=-0.106, P<0.001), and positively correlated with HbA1c levels ( r=0.103, P<0.001). Empowerment was positively correlated with self-management behavior ( r=0.538, P<0.001) and negatively correlated with HbA1c levels ( r=-0.170, P<0.001). Self-management behavior was negatively correlated with HbA1c levels ( r=-0.165, P<0.001) . Conclusions:Diabetes-related distress, empowerment, and self-management behavior are all associated with glycemic control. Future research and interventions should focus on enhancing patients' self-management abilities, strengthening empowerment, and providing psychological support in order to improve glycemic outcomes and offer a more comprehensive and effective management approach for patients with T2DM.

BACKGROUND:Distal tibial tuberosity-high tibial osteotomy is a surgical treatment for knee osteoarthritis,but there is still a lack of clinical studies on its effect on ankle joints. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effects of distal tibial tuberosity-high tibial osteotomy on ankle angle on coronal plane of the radiography of the full length of lower limb in weight loading. METHODS:Data of 40 patients(41 knees)with distal tibial tuberosity-high tibial osteotomy from March 2021 to March 2022 were retrospectively analyzed,including 31 females and 9 males,20 left knees and 21 right knees,aged 49-75 years,mean(63.44±6.57)years.The radiographic data of the full length of the lower limb in weight loading were collected before,week 2 and week 48 postoperatively.Hip-knee-ankle angle,talar tilt angle,tilt angle of the ankle,tibiocrural angle,and tibial articular surface angle were measured before and after surgery. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Hip-knee-ankle angle improved from(-6.24±3.69)° before operation to(2.59±3.49)° week 2 postoperatively and(2.15±3.49)° week 48 postoperatively.The tilt angle of the ankle changed from(-7.90±3.11)° before operation to(-2.51±2.59)° week 2 postoperatively and(-2.46±2.42)° week 48 postoperatively,with statistically significant difference(P<0.001).(2)There was no significant difference in talar tilt angle,tibiocrural angle,and tibial articular surface angle before and week 2 postoperatively.(3)No significant difference in the angle changes was detected between week 2 and week 48 postoperatively.(4)It is indicated that distal tibial tuberosity-high tibial osteotomy can not only correct genu varus but also improve ankle angle.This result remains stable after 48 weeks of weight-bearing activities.

Objective:To analyze the changes and management in perioperative circulatory function in neonates with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 52 cases of CDH children who were prenatally consulted and postnatally intubated and transported to the Neonatal Surgery Department of Children's Hospital, Capital Institute of Pediatrics from May 2021 to May 2023. The cases were divided into a survival group (42 cases) and a death group (10 cases) based on perioperative mortality. General data, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and pulmonary hypertension (PH) grading at different times (on the day of birth and seven days post-birth), as well as vasoactive inotropic score (VIS), treprostinil dosage, and urine output within 48 h post-surgery, were analyzed. Statistical analyses were performed using independent sample t-tests, rank-sum tests, Chi-square tests (or Fisher's exact test), or Wilcoxon non-parametric rank-sum tests. Results:(1) The gestational age at the first detection of CDH in the death group was earlier than that in the survival group [(22.9±3.0) weeks vs. (26.3±4.7) weeks, t=－2.17], and the proportion of liver herniation was higher in the death group [6/10 vs. 14% (6/42), χ2=10.56] (both P<0.05). In the death group, six cases underwent surgery, while four cases had unstable vital signs and no surgical opportunity. The proportion of open surgery and the use of patches were higher in the death group than in the survival group [4/6 vs. 14% (6/42); 4/6 vs. 9% (4/42); Fisher's exact test, both P<0.05]. (2) Among the operated cases in the death group, the VIS and treprostinil dosage within 48 h post-surgery were higher than those in the survival group {22.5 points (13.0-36.6 points) vs. 13.0 points (11.5-26.3 points), Z=－2.54; 19.5 ng/(kg·min) [8.0-22.5 ng/(kg·min)] vs. 9.0 ng/(kg·min) [4.8-20.0 ng/(kg·min)], Z=－2.52}; and the urine output was less than that in the survival group {1.4 ml/(kg·h) [0.7-2.0 ml/(kg·h)] vs. 3.0 ml/(kg·h) [2.8-3.7 ml/(kg·h)], Z=－2.61, all P<0.05)}. The LVEF on the day of birth and at 7 days post-birth in the death group were lower than those in the survival group [(63.8±8.5)% vs. (68.7±5.5)%, t=－2.09; (58.0±10.8)% vs. (69.6±4.8)%, t=－4.69; P<0.05], and the proportion of moderate to severe PH was higher than that in the survival group [moderate and severe on the day of birth were 0/10 vs. 33.3% (14/42) and 10/10 vs. 61.9% (26/42), χ2=－2.31; at seven days post-birth were 1/10 vs. 26.2% (11/42) and 9/10 vs. 7.1% (3/42), χ2=4.82; all P<0.05]. Conclusion:Infants with CDH often have circulatory dysfunction after birth, with more severe dysfunction in critically ill CDH infants. The rational use of vasoactive drugs, combined control of persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn with multiple drugs, and reasonable volume control may help improve the circulatory function of infants with CDH.

Background::Glomerular disease is the leading cause of chronic kidney disease globally. No scoping review reports have focused on China's spectrum of glomerular diseases in children. This study aimed to systematically identify and describe retrospective studies on pediatric glomerular disease based on available data on sex, age, study period, and region.Methods::Six databases were systematically searched for relevant studies from initiation to December 2021 in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Global Health Library, Wangfang Database, and CNKI.Results::Thirty-four studies were identified in the scoping review, including 40,430 patients with biopsy-proven diagnoses. The proportion of boys was significantly higher than that of girls. In this study, 28,280 (70%) cases were primary glomerular disease, 10,547 (26.1%) cases were diagnosed as secondary glomerular disease, and 1146 (2.8%) cases were hereditary glomerular disease. Minimal change disease is the most common glomerular disease among children in China, followed by mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis, IgA nephropathy, and purpura nephritis. We observed increments in glomerular diseases in periods 2 (2001–2010) and 3 (2011–2021). The proportion of major glomerular diseases varies significantly in the different regions of China.Conclusion::The spectrum of pediatric glomerular diseases varied across sex, age groups, study periods, and regions, and has changed considerably over the past 30 years.
