Objective: To investigate the incidence and influencing factors of new onset suicidal behaviors among junior and senior high school students, so as to provide evidence for early warning and intervention. Methods: Using a cluster sampling method, baseline data were collected from September to November 2023 among 2 379 adolescents selected from 2 junior high schools, 2 general senior high schools and 2 vocational senior high schools in Wuhan, Hubei Province, with follow up carried out from September to November 2024. Data were collected using the School Adaptation Scale, the Essential Resilience Scale, the Personal Social Support Scale, the Adverse Childhood Experiences Questionnaire, the Adolescent Life Events Scale, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale, and the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors influencing new onset suicidal behavior among junior and senior high school students. Results: Among junior and senior high school students without suicide risk at baseline, 53.55% remained stable risk free during follow up, while 13.28% developed new suicidal behavior during follow up, of which suicidal ideation, suicide plan and suicide attempts accounted for 11.69%, 8.83% and 6.52%, respectively. Multivariate Logistic regression revealed that increased depressive symptoms at follow up elevated the risk of overall new onset suicidal behaviors ( OR =4.14), ideation ( OR = 4.59), plans ( OR =4.24), and attempts ( OR =4.09); poor sleep quality also increased the risk of overall new onset suicidal behaviors ( OR =2.23), plans ( OR =2.03), and attempts ( OR =2.65) (all P <0.05). Non boarding junior and senior high school students had lower risks of overall new onset suicidal behaviors and ideation ( OR=0.70 and 0.49, respectively); secondary school students with academic performance ranking in the top 20%-30% of their class had a lower risk of new onset ideation ( OR =0.27); and those whose place of origin was outside the city had a lower risk of new onset plans ( OR =0.49) (all P <0.05). Conclusions New onset suicidal behaviors among junior and senior high school students exhibit dynamic and stage specific differences. Depressive symptoms serve as a common core risk factor across all stages, whereas sleep quality, academic performance, boarding status, and place of origin exert differential influences at distinct stages.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect and potential mechanism of caffeic acid （CA） on severe acute pancreatitis （SAP） induced by caerulein combined with lipopolysaccharide （LPS）， and to provide a basis for the research on novel drugs for the treatment of SAP. MethodsC57BL/6J mice， aged 6 weeks， were divided into control group， model group， CA group， and octreotide acetate （OA） group， with 6 mice in each group. The mice in the control group were given injection of normal saline， and those in the other groups were given intraperitoneal injection of caerulein combined with LPS to establish a mouse model of SAP. At 1 hour after the first injection of caerulein， the mice in the CA group and the OA group were given intraperitoneal injection of CA or subcutaneous injection of OA at an interval of 8 hours. The general status of the mice was observed after 24 hours of modeling， and serum， pancreas， lung， and colon samples were collected. HE staining was used to observe the histopathological changes of the pancreas and lungs， and the serum levels of α-amylase， lipase， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， alanine aminotransferase， aspartate aminotransferase， and creatinine were measured. RT-PCR was used to measure the expression of proinflammatory factors in the pancreas and lungs； myeloperoxidase （MPO） immunohistochemistry was used to observe the degree of neutrophil infiltration； Western blot was used to measure the activation of nuclear factor-kappa B （NF-κB） and the level of citrullinated histone H3 （CitH3）， a marker for the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps （NETs）， in the pancreas and lungs， as well as the expression level of ZO-1 in colon tissue. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison of continuous data between multiple groups， and the Dunnett’s t-test was used for further comparison between two groups. ResultsCompared with the control group， the model group had severe injury in the pancreas and lungs and significant increases in the activity of serum α- amylase and lipase and the levels of the proinflammatory cytokines IL-6， interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， and TNF-α in serum and lung tissue （all P<0.05）， as well as significant increases in NF-κB activation， neutrophil infiltration， and the formation of NETs in the pancreas and lungs （all P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， the CA group had alleviated pathological injury of the pancreas and lungs and significant reductions in the activity of serum α-amylase and the levels of the proinflammatory cytokines IL-6， IL-1β， and TNF-α in serum and lung tissue （all P<0.05）， as well as significant reductions in NF-κB activation， neutrophil infiltration， and the formation of NETs in the pancreas and lungs （all P<0.05）. ConclusionCA can alleviate SAP induced by caerulein combined with LPS in mice， possibly by inhibiting neutrophil recruitment and the formation of NETs.

BACKGROUND: The available evidence regarding the benefits of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on patients receiving dialysis with coronary artery disease (CAD) is limited and inconsistent. This study aimed to evaluate the association between PCI and clinical outcomes as compared with medical therapy alone in patients undergoing dialysis with CAD in China. METHODS: This multicenter, retrospective study was conducted in 30 tertiary medical centers across 12 provinces in China from January 2015 to June 2021 to include patients on dialysis with CAD. The primary outcome was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), defined as a composite of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and non-fatal stroke. Secondary outcomes included all-cause death, the individual components of MACE, and Bleeding Academic Research Consortium criteria types 2, 3, or 5 bleeding. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess the association between PCI and outcomes. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) and propensity score matching (PSM) were performed to account for potential between-group differences. RESULTS: Of the 1146 patients on dialysis with significant CAD, 821 (71.6%) underwent PCI. After a median follow-up of 23.0 months, PCI was associated with a 43.0% significantly lower risk for MACE (33.9% [ n  = 278] vs . 43.7% [ n  = 142]; adjusted hazards ratio 0.57, 95% confidence interval 0.45-0.71), along with a slightly increased risk for bleeding outcomes that did not reach statistical significance (11.1% vs . 8.3%; adjusted hazards ratio 1.31, 95% confidence interval, 0.82-2.11). Furthermore, PCI was associated with a significant reduction in all-cause and cardiovascular mortalities. Subgroup analysis did not modify the association of PCI with patient outcomes. These primary findings were consistent across IPTW, PSM, and competing risk analyses. CONCLUSION This study indicated that PCI in patients on dialysis with CAD was significantly associated with lower MACE and mortality when comparing with those with medical therapy alone, albeit with a slightly increased risk for bleeding events that did not reach statistical significance.

OBJECTIVE: To accurately measure human energy metabolism with high temporal resolution, a respiratory gas analysis system was designed using a breath-by-breath approach. METHODS: Firstly, indirect calorimetry was employed in respiratory gas analysis to measure the respiratory flow and concentration signals in real-time. Secondly, oxygen consumption QO2 and carbon dioxide production QCO2 were calculated through respiratory characteristic alignment and respiratory signal segmentation. Finally, metabolic indexes were calculated according to the Weir formula. Furthermore, a controlled trial was formulated for validation comparisons with the MGC ULTIMA SYSTEM PFX CARDIO2. RESULTS: The results indicate that the data points of metabolic indexes measured by this system all fall within the confidence interval when compared with those of the MGC. CONCLUSION The system has high consistency with the MGC measurement results. Thus, the system can accurately measure metabolism in real-time and provide data support for clinical nutrition assessment and therapy.

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of perioperative chemotherapy regimens based on docetaxel administered in different cycles for locally advanced gastric cancer(LAGC)and gastroesophageal junction cancer(GEJC)through a network Meta-analysis.Methods PubMed,Embase,Cochrane Library,and Web of Science databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials(RCTs)evaluating docetaxel-based perioperative regimens for the treatment of LAGC and GEJC from inception to February 28,2025.Two researchers independently screened the literature,extracted relevant data,and assessed the risk of bias in the included studies.Subsequently,a network Meta-analysis was performed using R 4.5.0 software.Results A total of 10 RCTs involving 2,064 patients were included.The results of the network Meta-analysis showed that,compared with three cycles of epirubicin,cyclophosphamide,and fluorouracil(ECF regimen)and four cycles of platinum and fluorouracil(PF regimen),both three-cycle and four-cycle docetaxel,platinum,and fluorouracil(TPF regimen)significantly increased the complete tumor resection rate(R0 resection rate).Compared with surgery alone,the three-cycle TPF regimen significantly improved the R0 resection rate.Additionally,the four-cycle TPF regimen significantly improved 3-year and 5-year progression-free survival(PFS)compared with the two-cycle PF regimen,and significantly improved overall survival(OS)at 3 and 5 years compared with the three-cycle ECF regimen.Compared with surgery alone,the three-cycle TPF regimen also significantly increased the pathological complete response rate(pCR rate).Furthermore,compared with the two-cycle TPF and three-cycle ECF regimens,the four-cycle TPF and PF regimens were associated with a lower risk of surgical complications.Conversely,the two-cycle TPF and three-cycle ECF regimens significantly increased the risk of surgical complications compared with surgery alone.No statistically significant differences were observed in the incidence of grade 3 to 4 adverse events among the treatment regimens(P＞0.05).Based on the surface under the cumulative ranking curve(SUCRA)plot and pairwise comparisons,the three-cycle PF regimen appeared to be the most effective in achieving the highest R0 resection rate,the three-cycle TPF regimen appeared to be the most effective in achieving the highest pCR rate,while the four-cycle TPF regimen was associated with the best outcomes in terms of 3-year and 5-year PFS and OS.Conclusion The four-cycle TPF regimen may be associated with the optimal PFS and OS among perioperative chemotherapy regimens.No statistically significant differences were observed between the four-cycle TPF and the three-cycle PF in terms of R0 resection rate,between the four-cycle TPF and the three-cycle TPF in terms of pCR rate,or between the four-cycle TPF and the other seven regimens included in the study in terms of safety assessment.The four-cycle TPF regimen may represent the optimal perioperative chemotherapy regimen for patients with LAGC and GEJC.

Purpose To compare the 5.0T gradient echo coronary magnetic resonance angiography(CMRA)using compressed sensing(CS)acceleration technology(5.0TCS-CMRA)vs.3.0T gradient echo-CMRA(3.0TCS-CMRA)using CS.Materials and Methods Twenty-five healthy volunteers aged 23 to 30 years from December 16,2023 to January 14,2024 at Peking Union Medical College Hospital,Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences were prospective enrolled in this study.The interval between 3.0TCS-CMRA and 5.0TCS-CMRA was within two weeks.3.0TCS-CMRA used T2 preparation and 5.0TCS-CMRA did not use T2 preparation.The image quality scores,coronary artery length,signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)and contrast-to-noise ratio between coronary blood and adjacent myocardium or tissue(CNRmyo-blood)were evaluated.Results On 5.0TCS-CMRA,the SNR and CNRmyo-blood of the proximal right coronary artery(RCA)in 25 healthy volunteers were significantly higher than those of 3.0TCS-CMRA(SNR:318.07±94.06 vs.223.81±51.19,t=-5.609,P<0.001;CNRmyo-blood:212.75±91.44 vs.149.70±59.53,Z=-3.619,P<0.001),while the SNR and CNRmyo-blood of proximal left anterior descending coronary artery(LAD)and left circumflex coronary artery(LCX)were not significantly higher than those of 3.0TCS-CMRA(SNR:315.52±102.49 vs.306.35±92.85,t=-0.627,P=0.536;289.72±88.79 vs.272.87±84.68,t=-1.226,P=0.232;CNRmyo-blood:135.83±93.53 vs.203.94±74.30,t=4.132,P<0.001;117.66±79.63 vs.161.60±78.91,t=3.127,P=0.005).The length of the three coronary arteries measured by 5.0TCS-CMRA was significantly shorter than that of 3.0TCS-CMRA[RCA:(126.04±31.54)mm vs.(137.20±29.93)mm,t=2.911,P=0.008;LAD:(122.68±24.63)mm vs.(134.24±23.38)mm,Z=-3.026,P=0.002;LCX:(57.07±26.70)mm vs.(68.27±24.02)mm,t=2.552,P=0.018].There was no significant difference in the scanning time required between 3.0TCS-CMRA and 5.0TCS-CMRA[(8.60±2.84)min vs.(8.30±2.32)min,Z=-0.183,P=0.855].The image scores of the three major coronary arteries of 5.0TCS-CMRA were significantly lower than those of 3.0TCS-CMRA(RCA:2.52±0.59 vs.3.16±0.69,Z=-3.258,P=0.001;LAD:2.72±0.74 vs.3.24±0.66,Z=-2.540,P=0.011;LCX:2.44±0.71 vs.3.00±0.87,Z=-2.462,P=0.014).Conclusion In the absence of T2 preparation,5.0TCS-CMRA can still show obvious advantages in the SNR and CNRmyo-blood of proximal RCA compared with 3.0TCS-CMRA,which suggests the application potential of 5.0TCS-CMRA.In the future,a suitable T2 preparation pulse or potential alternative may significantly improve the performance of the 5.0TCS-CMRA.

Objectives:To investigate the clinical value of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging(CMR)feature-tracking strain analysis in risk stratification of diabetic heart failure with preserved ejection fraction(HFpEF).Methods:In this retrospective study,a total of 215 patients with diabetic HFpEF who underwent CMR at Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences Fuwai Hospital from January 2012 to December 2018 were included.Myocardial strain parameters were calculated using CMR feature-tracking technology.Patients were followed up by medical records or telephone calls.Composite endpoint event,all-cause death or heart failure hospitalization during follow-up were recorded.Patients were divided into event group and event-free group.Univariable and multivariable Cox proportional hazard regression analyses were performed to determine the risk factors for the outcomes in diabetic HFpEF.The effects of hypertension and obesity on the prognosis of diabetic HFpEF patients and whether they affect the prognostic value of CMR feature-tracking strain analysis were also analyzed.Results:During a follow-up of(7.1±1.8)years,93(43.3%)patients had endpoint events(event group),including 28 all-cause deaths and 65 heart failure hospitalization.Compared with the event-free group(n=122),patients in the event group had significantly lower left ventricular ejection fraction,higher prevalence and extent of late gadolinium enhancement,and significantly reduced global longitudinal strain(GLS),global circumferential strain,global radial strain,and global systolic longitudinal strain rate(all P<0.05).The absolute GLS value was significantly lower in event group than in event-free group,regardless of the presence of hypertension and obesity.Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that estimated glomerular filtration rate(HR=0.983,95%CI:0.972-0.993,P=0.001),left atrial volume index(HR=1.015,95%CI:1.005-1.026,P=0.004),and GLS(HR=1.142,95%CI:1.060-1.231,P<0.001)were independent risk factors for adverse cardiovascular events in diabetic HFpEF patients.However,adjusted N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide was not an independent prognostic factor.The cut-offvalue of GLS to predict outcome was-14.09%from ROC curve analysis.The Kaplan-Meier curve showed that in patients with and without hypertension and obesity,patients with the GLS>-14.09%had lower event-free survival compared to patients with GLS≤-14.09%(all P<0.05),and the ability of GLS to predict adverse outcomes was not affected by hypertension and obesity.Conclusions:GLS obtained by CMR feature-tracking strain analysis is an independent predictor of adverse outcomes in diabetic HFpEF,and its ability to predict adverse outcomes is independent of hypertension and obesity.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of polypoid lesion of gallbladder(PLG)of soldiers stationed on an island.Methods A total of 687 soldiers stationed on an island who underwent annual physical examination from October to December 2020 were selected.They took transabdominal ultrasound and blood biochemical examination,and filled out the questionnaire.There were 62 cases with PLG(PLG group)and 625 cases without PLG(non-PLG group).Age,body mass index(BMI),blood pressure,smoking,eating habits,blood biochemical indexes,and self-rating depression scale(SDS)scores were compared between the two groups.Logistic regression analysis was performed to obtain the independent risk factors for the prevalence of PLG of the soldiers.Results There were significant differences in age,BMI,blood pressure,smoking,irregular diet,total cholesterol(TC),triacylglycerol(TG),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)and SDS scores between the two groups(all P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age,high BMI,smoking,irregular diet,high TC,high TG,high LDL-C,and high SDS scores were independent risk factors for PLG(all P<0.05).Conclusion There is a high overall prevalence of PLG in the soldiers of this island,which is related to age,high BMI,smoking,irregular diet,high TC,high TG,high LDL-C,and high SDS scores.

Objective:This study aims to explore the risk factors of Multi-center Investigator-Initiated Clinical Trials (MIITs), and provide a basis for developing study management strategies.Methods:The original draft of MIIT risk evaluation factors was determined through literature analysis and internal discussions of the research group. Thirty five experts were consulted using the Delphi method, and then the MIIT risk evaluation elements were finally determined. Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) was used to calculate the weights of each index.Results:The recovery rates of both rounds of expert consultation were 100%, and the degree of expert authority was 0.856. The study ultimately formed an MIIT risk evaluation framework consisting of three first-class indexes, twelve second-class indexes, and thirty-eight third-class indexes. The weight values of the first-class indexes (start-up period, implementation period, and summary period) were 0.209 8, 0.710 6, and 0.079 6, respectively. Meanwhile, the weight values of the second-class indexes and third-class indexes were determined.Conclusions:Exploring the risk evaluation factors of MIIT provides valuable insights into identifying critical risk points, which, in turn, contributes to enhancing MIIT management efficiency, research progress, and quality.
