Objective:To explore the impact of CACNA1C rs58619945 genotype on the cortical thickness of attentional networks in patients with Bipolar 1 disorder type (BD-Ⅰ). Methods:From August 2013 and August 2019, a total of 155 BD-Ⅰ patients were recruited from the outpatient and inpatient Departments of the Affiliated Brain Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University, along with 82 healthy controls (HC) from the community and university. Genotype for the CACNA1C rs58619945 locus was determined for all BD-I patients and HC subjects, followed by 3.0 T magnetic resonance imaging scans to measure the cortical thickness in the alert, orienting, and executive control subnetworks. General linear models (GLMs) were used to evaluate the impact of CACNA1C rs58619945 on the cortical thickness of attentional networks. Concurrently, attentional dimension functions were assessed using repeatable battery for the assessment of neuropsychological status (RBANS) and Cambridge neuropsychological test automated battery rapid visual information processing (CANTAB RVP) test. This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Affiliated Brain Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University(Ethics No. 2023-056). Results:Compared with the HC group, the BD-Ⅰ patients had shown reduced thickness in bilateral prefrontal cortex, bilateral posterior cingulate cortex, and bilateral superior temporal cortex( P<0.05). A significant interaction between the CACNA1C genotype and the cortical thickness(HC vs.BD) of right prefrontal cortex, right posterior parietal cortex and right superior temporal cortex was noted( P<0.05). Partial correlation analysis has demonstrated a significant correlation between CANTAB RVP and RBANS attention indices and cortical thickness in the right prefrontal cortex, right posterior cingulate cortex( P<0.05), and right superior temporal cortex predominantly among carriers of the BD-Ⅰ G allele. Conclusion:The G allele of CACNA1C rs58619945 is associated with cortical thickness of the right prefrontal cortex, right posterior cingulate cortex, and right superior temporal cortex in BD-Ⅰ, which are part of the alerting and orienting network.

Objective:
To analyze the trends and influencing factors of endurance performance of 19-22 years old college students in Hunan Province from 1985 to 2019, so as to provide objective and scientific basis for sports and health work in colleges and universities.
Methods:
A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 14 490 college students aged 19-22 in Hunan Province from 8 consecutive National Student Physical Fitness and Health Surveys conducted from 1985 to 2019. The analysis indexes were 1 000 m running for boys and 800 m running for girls.
Results:
From 1985 to 2019, the endurance running time of 19-22 years old Han college students in Hunan Province showed an obvious trend of decline. The 1 000 m running time of urban and rural male students increased by 41.9 and 45.4 s on average, and the 800 m running time of urban and rural female students increased by 29.5 and 30.6 s on average, respectively. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that age ( β =0.17), urban students (rural students as reference; β =0.44), GDP ( β =0.94) and urbanization level ( β = 0.44 ) were positively correlated with the average endurance running time of males. Urban students ( β =0.92), GDP ( β = 1.38 ) and Engel coefficient ( β =0.93) were positively correlated with the average endurance running time of females. BMI ( β =-0.47) was negatively correlated with the females mean time of endurance running ( P <0.05).
Conclusion
The endurance performance of Han college students in Hunan Province showed a declining trend from 1985 to 2019,which is associated with age, urban and rural distribution, regional GDP, Engel s coefficient, urbanization level and BMI. Effective measures should be taken to improve the physical quality of college students.
4.Milk consumption behavior and its impact on bone mineral density among 696 pupils in Hainan Province
Chinese Journal of School Health 2023;44(11):1631-1635
Objective:
To investigate the milk drinking behavior and bone mineral density level of pupils in Hainan Province, and to explore the correlation between bone mineral density and milk drinking behavior, in order to provide scientific basis for promoting the healthy development of bones in children and adolescents.
Methods:
In November 2021, a cross sectional survey including demographic characteristics, milk intake, unhealthy eating behavior, physical activity and sleep was conducted among 696 students from grades 3 to 5 in Sanya and Baisha, Hainan by stratified cluster random sampling, and bone mineral density at the distal 1/3 of the right forearm was measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. t-test was used to compare the differences in bone mineral density among different milk drinking behaviors of pupils, and multiple linear regression was used to analyze the correlation between milk consumption and bone mineral density.
Results:
About 25.3% students consumed milk daily and 13.9% consumed ≥ 300 g of milk daily. The mean bone mineral density at the distal 1/3 of the right forearm was (0.237±0.041)g/cm 2. The bone mineral density was greater in the group with daily milk intake than in the group without daily milk intake [(0.250± 0.037 )(0.204±0.034) g/cm 2 , t=15.00, P <0.01], and the bone mineral density was greater in the group with daily average milk intake ≥300 g than in the group with daily average milk intake <300 g [(0.284±0.036)(0.229±0.037)g/cm 2, t=13.48, P < 0.01 ]. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that daily average milk intake was positively correlated with bone mineral density, with a correlation coefficient ( β=0.020, t=21.46, P <0.01).
Conclusion
Milk consumption among pupils is inadequate, and milk drinking behavior has a positive impact on bone mineral density, so effective milk drinking intervention should be carried out to promote children s bone development.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2022;43(9):1407-1411
Objective:
To explore the gene lifestyle interaction of ATP2B1-eNOS pathway gene polymorphisms on blood pressure.
Methods:
Using the convenient cluster sampling method, a total of 872 junior middle school students from 3 school in July to August 2019, were included in the final analysis. The survey included questionnaire investigation, anthropometry measurement and blood sample collection. After DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples, the gene polymorphisms ( ATP2B1 gene rs 17249754 and rs 2070759, eNOS gene rs 1799983 and rs 2070744) were genotyped. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between gene polymorphism and blood pressure phenotypes.
Results:
The prevalence of high blood pressure was 9.52 % in adolescents(9.15% in boys and 9.87% in girls),with no significant sex difference ( χ 2=0.13, P =0.72). There were statistically significant differences between boys and girls in age, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), body mass index (BMI) classification, birth weight, daily school physical exercise time and daily playing video games time ( P <0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that, eNOS gene rs 2070744 polymorphism was associated with high blood pressure (HBP) under the recessive model, and the risk of HBP in CC genotype carriers were higher than that TT/TC genotype carriers ( OR=3.88, 95%CI =1.00-15.02, P < 0.05 ). The results of gene lifestyle interaction showed that ATP2B1 gene rs 2070759 polymorphism gene had an interaction with the time of physical exercise in school ( P interaction =0.05). In the subgroup with daily physical exercise time at sch ool <1 hour , the TT/TG genotype carriers were associated with increased risk of HBP compared with GG genotype carriers( OR= 2.65 , 95%CI =1.11-6.30, P <0.05). But in the subgroup with daily physical exercise time in school ≥1 hour, rs 2070759 was not significantly associated with HBP.
Conclusion
eNOS/rs 2070744 polymorphisms are associated with risk of HBP among adolescents. There is significant interaction between ATP2B1 gene rs 2070759 polymorphism and physical exercise time in school on HBP. Adolescents should spend more time on physical activity in school, which will help to maintain normal blood pressure level.

Langerhans cell histiocytosis(LCH)and Langerhans cell sarcoma(LCS)are characterized by clone proliferation of Langerhans-type cells, which may occur concurrently or sequentially with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) and other Lymphoid neoplasms. A 15-year old female patient diagnosed with T-ALL developed LCH involving multiple systems during maintenance chemotherapy of T-AL. After treated with chemotherapy with improved result, the patient showed progression of the illness and refractory to the second-line treatment. We found c.G35A (p.G12D)mutation in the KRAS gene and used the targeted drug Trametinib for treatment. The treatment proved effective, leading to partial remission within a week. Three months after Trametinib treatment, the patient developed new lymphadenopathy. Biopsy revealed the existence of LCS. The disease progressed quickly, and the patient died 7 days after diagnosis of LCS. The case of patients with T-ALL then developing LCH and LCS sequentially is extraordinarily rare. The causes of the case is unclear and may be related to cell transdifferentiation, clonal evolution, and chemotherapy. Targeted drugs can contain this disease for a short time.

ObjectiveTo explore the influence of the core symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) on behavioral problems of children with ADHD propensity, so as to provide references for early identification and targeted intervention for children with ADHD propensity. MethodsFrom July to August 2021, 25 children with ADHD propensity were screened as the ADHD propensity group, and 25 children matched for age, gender and grade were included as the normal group in an elementary school in Guangzhou. ADHD core symptoms were assessed by the Chinese version of the Swanson Nolan and Pelham, version IV-parent form for ADHD (SNAP-IV), and behavioral problems were assessed by Questionnaire-Children with Difficulties (QCD) and Conners Parental Symptom Questionnaire (PSQ). Spearman correlation analysis was used to examine the correlation between ADHD core symptoms and QCD and PSQ scores, and hierarchical linear regression analysis was used to explore the effect of ADHD core symptoms on behavioral problems. Results① The differences between the groups showed that both attention deficit and hyperactivity-impulsivity factor scores were higher in the ADHD propensity group than those in the normal group (t=7.771, 6.726, P<0.01). ② Correlation analysis showed that the attention deficit factor score was negatively correlated with QCD total score (r=-0.440, P<0.05), and positively correlated with the learning problem factor score of PSQ (r=0.457, P<0.05). The score of hyperactivity-impulsivity was negatively correlated with score of anxiety factor in PSQ (r=-0.457, P<0.05), and positively correlated with impulse-hyperactivity factor score (r=0.552, P<0.01). ③ Hierarchical linear regression analysis showed that the attention deficit factor score negatively predicted the total score of QCD (B=-0.682, P<0.05, R2=0.468). The hyperactivity-impulsivity factor score had a negative predictive effect on the anxiety factor score of PSQ (B=-0.048, P<0.05, R2=0.367), and had a positive predictive effect on the impulsivity-hyperactivity factor score (B=0.077, P<0.01, R2=0.424). ConclusionChildren with ADHD propensity have significant attention deficit symptoms, hyperactivity-impulsivity symptoms and behavioral problems, and the attention deficit may be the main cause of their daily behavioral problems, while hyperactivity-impulsivity may be the main cause of their impulsive-hyperactivity problems.

Objective:To explore the clinical effect of de-stretching suture combined with electronic irradiation after resection of recurrent keloid.Methods:From May 2016 to August 2019, the patients with postoperative recurrent keloid were selected for the Department of Plastic Surgery, Yuncheng Central Hospital. The keloid lesions were resected, and the subcutaneous skin on both sides of the incision was extensively elevated to reduce the tension for direct suture. Local flap transfer was used when the direct suture is impossible due to too much tension. The PDS Ⅱ suture of 2-0 to 4-0 was used subcutaneously to reduce the suture tension with the "heart" suture technology, and the skin was intermittently sutured with the Prolene suture of 6-0 or 7-0 and 3M tensile tape was applied on the wound to reduce tension. Besides, electronic irradiation was performed within 6 hours and 1 week after the operation, with 8 Gy for each time, a total dose of 16 Gy. After the suture was removed, tension glue and elastic sleeve were used for external compression, and regular follow-up was conducted to observe the width and degree of scar hyperplasia of the patients. The therapeutic effect was evaluated according to the scar beauty evaluation and rating scale.Results:A total of 36 patients with postoperative recurrent of keloids were included in this group, including 28 males and 8 females, aged 17-68 years, with an average of 42.5 years old. The incisions healed in all patients after the operation, and no recurrence of keloids was found in the follow-up period of 18 to 36 months. The highest score of scar cosmetic evaluation and rating scale was 4, and the lowest was 0.Conclusions:Surgical resection combining with electronic irradiation is an effective method for the treatment of recurrent keloid.

ObjectiveTo analyze the drop-out rate of participants in antidepressant clinical trials and to explore the related influencing factors. MethodsA retrospective analysis was carried out on the participants of 9 antidepressant clinical trials conducted at the Affiliated Brain Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from 2013 to 2020. A self-compiled questionnaire was used to collect the subjects' demographic data, disease characteristics and the final completion of the trial, thereafter, the participant drop-out rate and related influencing factors were discussed. ResultsA total of 157 cases were enrolled, including 120 cases completed and 37 cases dropped out the trail. The causes of drop-out were poor efficacy in 13 cases (35.14%), presence of adverse reactions in 12 cases (32.43%), withdrawal of informed consent in 8 cases (21.62%) and loss of follow-up in 4 cases (10.81%). Correlation analysis showed that participant drop-out was positively correlated with the level of anxiety (r=0.224, P<0.01) and presence of adverse events (r=0.158, P<0.05), meantime, negatively correlated with the level of education (r=-0.209, P<0.01) and overall efficacy (r=-0.545, P<0.01). Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that education level (β=-0.611, OR=0.543, P<0.05), number of visits (β=-1.831, OR=0.160, P<0.01) and overall efficacy (β=-2.286, OR=0.102, P<0.01) were the influencing factors of participant drop-out. ConclusionLow education level, first visit, poor outcome, high level of anxiety, and adverse events are the factors affecting participant drop-out in antidepressant clinical trials.
