Objective: To explore the correlation between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and digital self harm behavior among college students, so as to provide scientific evidence for preventing and intervening digital self harm behavior. Methods: A total of 5 917 college students from five provinces (Anhui, Guangdong, Hebei, Jilin, and Sichuan) were selected by using a method combining stratified cluster random sampling with convenient sampling to complete an electronic questionnaire survey, from May to June 2024. The survey was conducted to assesse digital self harm behavior and ten dimensions of ACEs, including peer bullying, emotional abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional neglect, physical neglect, adverse family events, adverse school or social events, adverse life experiences, and personal adverse problems. A multivariable Logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between ACEs and digital selfharm among college students. Results: The reporting rate of digital self harm behavior among college students was 11.5%. There were statistically significant differences in the reporting rates of digital self harm behaviors among college students with different household registration location and the numbers of close friends ( χ 2=3.91, 8.09 , both P <0.05). Univariate analyses showed that the prevalence of digital self harm behavior was significantly higher among students who reported any type of ACEs compared with those without such experiences ( χ 2=7.99-27.63, all P <0.01). After controlling for demographic variables, each type of ACE was separately included in multivariable Logistic regression models as an independent variable, and all types of ACEs were significantly associated with digital self harm behavior among college students ( OR =1.27-1.91, all P <0.01). Notably, the OR values for sexual abuse and personal adverse problems were relatively high, being 1.91 and 1.83 respectively. Moreover, the risk of reporting digital self harm increased with the number of types of ACEs ( OR= 1.17 , P <0.01). Conclusions ACEs are related factors for digital self harm behavior among college students. Early psychological intervention should be strengthened, particularly for college students who have experienced sexual abuse and personal adverse problems during childhood.

Objective:To establish a chain management model for blood glucose in critically ill patients after cardiac surgery and analyze its clinical effectiveness, and to provide a reference for related clinical nursing practices.Methods:A quasi-experimental study design was adopted. Using convenience sampling, 120 critically ill patients after cardiac surgery admitted to Xinhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine were selected as study subjects. They were divided into groups based on the time of admission to the intensive care unit after surgery. Sixty patients admitted from March to May 2024 were assigned to the control group and received conventional blood glucose management. Another 60 patients admitted from June to August 2024 were assigned to the observation group and received the chain management model for blood glucose control in addition to the conventional approach. Blood glucose levels and quality indicators of blood glucose management (including maximum blood glucose fluctuation, time in target glucose range, duration of insulin use, incidence of hypoglycemia, etc.) were compared between the two groups.Results:The control group included 27 males and 33 females, with an age of 63.00(59.00, 69.25) years; the observation group included 28 males and 32 females, with an age of 66.00(60.00, 70.00) years. The blood glucose levels of the observation group on postoperative days 2, 3, 4 were 9.10(8.68, 9.90), 8.90(8.40, 10.00), 8.75(7.38, 9.03) mmol/L, respectively, which were lower than those of the control group [10.30(9.80, 11.00), 9.95(9.40, 11.05), 9.30(8.10, 10.02) mmol/L], with a statistically significant difference ( Z=-5.85, -4.95, -3.50, all P<0.05). The maximum blood glucose fluctuation in the observation group was (4.09 ± 2.45) mmol/L, lower than that of the control group [(5.19 ± 2.47) mmol/L], with a statistically significant difference ( t=2.46, P<0.05). The time in the target glucose range was 67.00(60.00, 75.00)% in the observation group, higher than that of the control group 52.00(45.00, 60.00)%, with a statistically significant difference ( Z=-6.57, P<0.05). The duration of insulin use was 6.00(5.00, 7.00) h in the observation group, shorter than that of the control group [13.00(9.75, 15.32) h], with a statistically significant difference ( Z=-8.68, P<0.05). The incidence of hypoglycemia was 3.33%(2/60) in the observation group and 15.00%(9/60) in the control group, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=4.90, P<0.05). The mechanical ventilation time, ICU stay, and total hospital stay in the observation group were 42.00(37.00, 89.25) h, 6.00(5.00, 7.00) d, and 12.00(11.75, 13.00) d, respectively, which were shorter than those of the control group [96.00(86.25, 98.00) h, 7.00(7.00, 10.00) d, and 13.00(11.75, 15.00) d], with a statistically significant difference ( Z=8.67, 17.57, 4.73, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The implemented chain management model for blood glucose control meets the comprehensive requirements of blood glucose management. It not only reduces blood glucose fluctuations and decreases the incidence of hypoglycemia but also effectively improves the quality of blood glucose management in critically ill patients after cardiac surgery, enhances the safety of blood glucose control, and promotes patient recovery.

Objective:To investigate the dose characteristics of the Zeiss INTRABEAM system in air and water, providing dose reference for electronic brachytherapy.Methods:A Monte Carlo program was used to establish a three-dimensional model of a miniature X-ray source vacuum drift tube and a 4 cm spherical applicator. The process of electron beam bombardment on a gold target to generate X-rays was simulated, and parameters such as photon fluence spectrum, percentage depth dose, and half-value layer were calculated. Additionally, the radial dose uniformity in water was measured.Results:The average energy of X-rays at 3 cm in air was 20.8 keV, with a half-value layer of 0.08 mm Al. Under the influence of the applicator, the spectrum becomes hardened, with axial and radial average energies of 28.7 and 29.0 keV, respectively. In water, the percentage depth dose (PDD) curve follows an inverse cubic decay with depth, indicating strong dose concentration and rapid fall-off in near-field irradiation. The radial dose uniformity in water exceeded 99.5%.Conclusions:The INTRABEAM device emits low-energy X-rays characterized by shallow penetration depth, and concentrated dose delivery. Its highly uniform dose distribution ensures comprehensive coverage of the target area, making it particularly suitable for treating superficial tumors and for intraoperative radiotherapy at close range.

Objective:To evaluate the long-term effectiveness of lingual mucosal graft ureteroplasty (LMGU) for managing long-segment (≥5 cm) ureteral strictures in a multi-institutional cohort of patients.Methods:A multi-center retrospective case series study was conducted on clinical data from 42 patients undergoing LMGU for long-segment ureteral strictures (≥5 cm) across five institutions between February 2017 and June 2024. The cohort comprised 31 males and 11 females, with an age of (43.4±12.0) years (range: 15 to 64 years) and a body mass index of (24.6±2.6) kg/m2 (range: 16.0 to 30.0 kg/m2). Strictures involved the left ureter in 24 cases and right ureter in 18 cases, demonstrating a stricture length of (6.4±1.5) cm (range: 5.0 to 11.5 cm). Surgical interventions included either onlay ureteroplasty or augmented anastomotic ureteroplasty, selected according to intraoperative findings. Intraoperative parameters, postoperative complications, and follow-up outcomes were analyzed.Results:Laparoscopic surgery was performed in 22 cases and robot-assisted surgery in 20 cases. Among the 42 patients, 22 underwent onlay ureteroplasty while 20 received augmented anastomotic ureteroplasty. The graft length was (5.9±1.8) cm (range: 3.0 to 12.0 cm), operative time (191.5±55.6) minutes (range: 105.0 to 350.0 minutes), and intraoperative estimated blood loss (86.7±73.6) ml (range: 10.0 to 400.0 ml). All procedures were successfully completed without conversion to open surgery. The postoperative hospital stay was (7.6±2.0) days (range: 4.0 to 15.0 days), with double-J stent removal at 6 to 8 weeks postoperatively. During a follow-up of (49.1±25.0) months (range: 12.0 to 99.0 months), no stricture recurrence was observed in any patient.Conclusion:LMGU is a safe, feasible, and effective long-term technique for managing long-segment (≥5 cm) ureteral strictures.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and toxicity of blinatumomab in the first-line and second-line treatment of pediatric B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL).Methods:A multi-center retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze clinical data from 323 pediatric B-ALL patients treated with blinatumomab across 14 hospitals in China from May 2021 to July 2023. Patients were divided into four groups based on the treatment phase and disease status when blinatumomab was used: relapsed/refractory group, post-consolidation minimal residual disease (MRD)-positive group, early MRD-positive group, and MRD-negative group. Blinatumomab for the relapsed/refractory group was considered as second-line treatment, while the other 3 groups as first-line treatment. The MRD negativity rate after treatment, the survival rates and the incidence of severe adverse events were compared across these groups. Patients who received blinatumomab for more than 7 days were included in the efficacy analysis. Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method, and Log-Rank test was used to compare the survival rates among groups.Results:Among the 323 patients, 191 (59.1%) were male, with the age of 6.2 (3.9, 10.5) years. There were 117 patients in the relapsed/refractory group, 62 cases in the post-consolidation MRD-positive group, 43 cases in the early MRD-positive group, and 101 cases in the MRD negative group. In the relapsed/refractory group, the complete remission rate and MRD negativity rate after one course of blinatumomab were 71.4% (35/49) and 81.5% (75/92) for the 49 children without complete remission and the 92 children with flow cytometry-positive MRD, respectively. In the post-consolidation MRD-positive group, the MRD negativity rates after one course of blinatumomab were 100.0% (27/27), 12/16 and 9/19 for patients with MRD positivity detected by flow cytometry, polymerase chain reaction and next-generation sequencing, respectively. In the early MRD-positive group, the MRD negativity rates were 96.7% (29/30) and 9/9 for flow cytometry and next-generation sequencing, respectively. The 2-year overall survival rate and event-free survival rate for the 319 children evaluable for efficacy were (90.6±1.7)% and (87.6±1.9)%, respectively, with the relapsed/refractory group showing significantly lower overall survival rates and event-free survival rate compared to the other groups ( χ2=21.40, 26.21,both P<0.001). Grade 3 or higher adverse events occurred in 128 cases (39.6%), with hematological toxicity observed in 101 cases, while cytokine release syndrome (CRS), infection, and neurotoxicity occurred in 11, 26 and 8 cases, respectively. In addition, there were statistically significant differences in the grade 3 or higher CRS among the four groups ( χ2=8.03, P<0.05). Conclusion:Blinatumomab can clear MRD more effectively and achieve superior survival outcomes when used as first-line treatment for pediatric B-ALL, with less CRS.
