Objective:To explore the longitudinal relationship between adolescents' future self-continuity and depression, providing insights into their future development.Methods:A total of 419 adolescents from a school in Shandong Province were selected, and two followed-up surveys were conducted at 6-month intervals in April (T1) and October (T2) of 2023 using the future self-continuity questionnaire and Beck depression inventory-Ⅱ. Cross-lagged analysis was performed using Mplus 8.0.Results:The scores of future self-continuity were 36.01±8.69 at baseline (T1) and 35.89±9.92 after six months (T2), while the scores of depression were 2.00(0, 14.00) and 1.00(0, 9.00), respectively. There was a negative correlation between future self-continuity and depression at both time points (T1: r=-0.195, T2: r=-0.239, both P<0.01). Adolescents' future self-continuity could predict depression six months later ( β=-0.098, P<0.01), and depression also could predict the level of future self-continuity six months later ( β=-0.114, P<0.01). Conclusion:There is an interactively influence effect between adolescents' future self-continuity and depression.While enhancing adolescents' future self-continuity level to alleviate depression, attention should also be paid attention to the impact of depression on their future self-continuity, which can help adolescents overcome the interference of depressive emotions and grow into a better future self.

AIM: To analyze the causes of blindness and low vision in patients with visual disability in Yangpu District of Shanghai from 2019 to 2022.METHODS:Cross-sectional study. A total of 1 604 patients who participated in the evaluation of visual disability in Shanghai Yangpu District Kongjiang Hospital, from April 2019 to December 2022 were selected for the study. The grade of visual disability and the main causes of blindness and low vision were determined by trained doctors.RESULTS:A total of 804 patients with visual disabilities were identified, with 87.31% aged 60 and above. The causes of visual disability were high myopic retinopathy(30.47%), age-related macular degeneration(23.26%), glaucoma(17.04%), and diabetic retinopathy(11.07%). Glaucoma(36.96%)is the leading cause of blindness.CONCLUSION: The majority of patients with visual disability are aged 60 years and above. More attention should be paid to the elderly population. Comprehensive prevention, treatment and rehabilitation measures should be applied in different diseases based on classification, so as to early reduce the occurrence of visual disability.
