Objective:To preliminary explore the potential application value of ultrasound shear wave elastography (SWE) in assessing functional defecation disorders compared with anorectal manometry and X-ray defecography.Methods:From July 2022 to December 2022, the results of SWE, anorectal manometry and X-ray defecography of 39 patients with functional defecation disorders visited Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, School of Medicine of Zhejiang University were retrospectively analyzed. Non-parametric tests were used to analyze the changes in elastic modulus values of anorectal muscle groups at different phase.Chi-square test and Bland-Altman plots were used to assess the consistency between SWE, X-ray defecography and anorectal manometry in evaluating spastic pelvic floor syndrome, as well as the changes in the anorectal angle measured by SWE and X-ray defecography (from resting phase to contraction phase, resting phase to strain phase (Valsalval maneuver).Results:The elastic modulus values measured by SWE of the puborectalis muscle, internal anal sphincter, and external anal sphincter of patients with functional defecation disorders during strain phase were 32.4 kPa (19.1 kPa, 60.3 kPa), 25.3 kPa (17.0 kPa, 53.8 kPa), and 28.6 kPa (21.3 kPa, 55.1 kPa), respectively, which had no statistically significant differences compared to elastic modulus values in resting phase (33.5 kPa (22.1 kPa, 44.9 kPa), 28.9 kPa (22.4 kPa, 45.1 kPa), and 32.4 kPa (23.1 kPa, 49.4 kPa), all P>0.05). The consistency between SWE and X-ray defecography in the diagnosis of spastic pelvic floor syndrome was poor (Kappa=0.190). The consistency between SWE and anorectal manometry in the diagnosis of dyssynergic defecation was poor (Kappa=0.160). The differences in the changes of anorectal angle detected by SWE and X-ray defecography were within the 95% consistency limit ( P=0.429 and 0.582). Conclusion:SWE is sensitive in evaluating changes in anorectal angle, and it shows good consistency with defecography in assessing angle changes.

Objective:To revise the Chinese version of the Effort-Reward Imbalance for Learning Scale (LE-RIS)and examine its validity and reliability. Methods:Totally 230 middle school students from Shaanxi Province were recruited for the preliminary survey of the LERIS (214 valid questionnaires). The formal LERIS was set through item analysis and exploratory factor analysis. Then,5 10 middle school students from Shandong and Shaanxi Province were selected to complete the formal LERI for the confirmatory factor analysis and the Internal consistency analysis. The Study Stress Questionnaire for Middle School Students (SSQMSS )were selected as the criterion measurement which to examine the association between study stress and effort-reward imbalance. Test-retest relia-bility were examined by 260 participants random selected after one month. Result:The Chinese version of the LERI with 10 items had 3 dimensional structures,which were effort,reward and overcommitment. Confirmatory factor a-nalysis showed that the Chinese version of the LERI had good structure validity (RMSEA=0. 0,NFI=0. 901,CFI=0. 910,GFI=0. 905,PGFI=0. 521). The Cronbach's αcoefficients were 0. 86 to 0. 89 for the three subscales, and the test-retest reliability coefficients were 0. 63 -0. 7 1 for the three subscales. Conclusion:It suggests that the Chinese version of the Effort-Reward Imbalance for Learning (LERI)is a reliable and valid assessment and couldbe used as an effective and reliable tool for assessing academic pressure of middle school students in china.

Objective To investigate the multi-slice spiral computed tomography (MSCT) features of crush maxillofacial frac-tures in the massive Wenchuan earthquake. Methods MSCT data of 85 patients with crush maxillofacial fractures caused by earth-quake were retrospectively analyzed. The anatomic distribution of fractures was evaluated. Results In 85 patients, single bone frac-tures (59 patients) were more common than multiple bone fractures (26 patients) (P<0.05). The fractures involved isolated mid-face, isolated mandible, and both were found in 49 patients (57.6%), 24(28.2%), and 12(14.2%), respectively. Midface frac-tures were most frequent (P<0.05). The fractures of condyle, posterolateral and anterior wall of maxillary sinus, zygomatic arch and lateral orbital wall accounted for 47.1%(24/51) ,41.5%(22/53) , 37.7%(20/53),71.9% (23/32) and 63.2%(24/38) of the total fractures of the corresponding maxillofacial bones. Conclusion Isolated bone fracture and midface factures are the main fea-tures of crush maxillofacial fractures resulted from the massive earthquake. MSCT and three-dimensional reconstruction images can demonstrate maxillofacial fractures well.
