Objective:
To investigate the factors affecting depression and anxiety symptoms among the elderly, so as to provide the basis for promoting mental health among the elderly.
Methods:
The elderly aged 60 years and above in Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province were recruited using the multistage stratified random sampling method from June to August 2022, and demographic information, lifestyle and self-rated health status were collected by questionnaires. The symptoms of depression and anxiety were assessed by the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7), respectively. The presence of depressive and anxiety symptoms was determined when both the PHQ-9 score and the GAD-7 score were 10 points and higher. Factors affecting depressive and anxiety symptoms were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model.
Results:
A total of 7 771 individuals were surveyed, including 3 490 males (44.91%) and 4 281 females (55.09%), and had a mean age of (72.11±6.79) years. The prevalence of depression and anxiety symptoms was 2.05%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified residence (urban area, OR=0.316, 95%CI: 0.201-0.498), sedentary duration (<3 h/d, OR=0.349, 95%CI: 0.232-0.525; 3-5 h/d, OR=0.458, 95%CI: 0.313-0.671), physical activity (≥3 times/week, OR=0.551, 95%CI: 0.373-0.815), sleep quality (poor, OR=2.491, 95%CI: 1.738-3.571), social isolation (OR=1.688, 95%CI: 1.148-2.481) and self-rated health (poor, OR=5.857, 95%CI: 3.547-9.671; normal, OR=1.903, 95%CI: 1.234-2.937) as the influencing factors for depression and anxiety symptoms among the elderly.
Conclusion
The prevalence of depression and anxiety symptoms among the elderly is associated with residence, sedentary duration, sleep quality, physical activity, social interactions and self-rated health status.

Objective To investigate the correlation between baseline data,early treatment response and prognosis in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL).Methods Ninety-two children with ALL were divided into the endpoint event group(19 cases)and the event-free survival group(73 cases)according to whether there was an endpoint event(recurrence or death).The age and gender at initial diagnosis were recorded.Initial white blood cell count(WBC),platelet count(PLT),immunophenotype,chromosome karyotype,fusion gene,prednisone test,bone marrow remission status on the 15th day of induction chemotherapy and minimal residual disease(MRD)on the 15th,33rd and 55th day of induction chemotherapy were detected.The correlation between the above baseline data and early treatment response and the occurrence of endpoint event in children with ALL was analyzed.Logistic regression was used to analyze influencing factors of endpoint events in children with ALL.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was plotted to evaluate the predictive value of baseline data and early treatment response to endpoint events in children with ALL.Results The proportion of WBC≥100×109/L at first diagnosis,prednisone poor reaction and positive MRD on the 33rd day of induction chemotherapy were higher in the endpoint event group than those in the event-free survival group(P<0.05),and there were no significance differences in remaining indicators(P>0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that prednisone poor reaction and positive MRD on the 33rd day of induction chemotherapy were risk factors for endpoint event in children with ALL(P<0.05),and the combined value of the two indicators was better than that of a single indicator in predicting endpoint events in children with ALL.Conclusion Prednisone poor reaction and positive MRD on the 33rd day of induction chemotherapy are associated with recurrence and death in children with ALL.

Objective:To summarize experience of managing adult Langerhans cell histiocytosis(LCH) in hypothalamic-pituitary region(HPR) from Shanghai Huashan Hospital.Methods:Adult HPR-LCH patients diagnosed at oar endocrinology department from January 2013 to February 2022 were included. Clinical characteristics and treatment response were retrospectively analyzed.Results:A total of 27 adult HPR-LCH patients were included, with 14 cases involving the hypothalamus(H group) and 13 cases without(group NH). The common radiological findings included thickening of the pituitary stalk(25/27, 92.6%). At the time of diagnosis, 14 cases(51.9%) presented with panhypopituitarism, and 19 cases(70.4%) exhibited metabolic abnormalities. The group H had higher proportions of adrenal insufficiency, central hypothyroidism, panhypopituitarism, and diabetes compared to group NH(78.6% vs 23.1%; 78.6% vs 23.1%; 92.9% vs 30.8%, 35.7% vs 0%, respectively, all P<0.05). Hypothalamus syndrome was identified in 71.4%(10/14) of group H. The inital diagnosis rate was 79.2%(19/24), with 48.1% and 51.9% through biopsy of sellar and extrasellar lesions, respectively. Repeated biopsies confirmed the diagnosis in 25.9%(7/27) of cases. The peripheral lesions included bone, thyroid, lung, lymph node, thymus and liver. Out of 20 cases treated with chemotherapy, the objective response rate was 85% at 12 weeks. Four cases received local therapy, one case received traditional Chinese medicine treatment, one case abandoned treatment, and one case was lost to follow-up. The median follow-up time was 28(range 15 to 54) months. During this period, there were 3 deaths in group H and 1 death in group NH. Conclusion:Adult HPR-LCH patients presented with diabetes insipidus and high prevalences of hypopituitarism, hypothalamus syndrome and metabolic abnormalities. Typical imaging features were pituitary stalk thickening. A solitary mass in the HPR was usually very small, posing a great challenge for early diagnosis. Systemic evaluation would help to clarify the diagnosis. Patients with hypothalamus involvement had a higher mortality rate, suggesting the hypothalamus as a risk organ with poor prognosis.

Bariatric surgery may cause intestinal microecological environment imbalance due to changes in gastrointestinal anatomy.Some patients may have compli-cations,even regain weight.Probiotics can act on intestinal mucosa,epithelium and gut-associated lymphoid tissue to improve the intestinal microecological environment of obese patients after bariatric surgery.Probiotics can promote the production of short-chain fatty acids,stimulate intestinal cells to release glucagon-like peptide-1,peptide tyrosine-tyrosine,insulin and other endocrine hormones,affect the function of the central nervous system through the gut-brain axis,make patients after bariatric surgery feel full,and reduce blood sugar at the same time.Probiotics can produce lactic acid,acetic acid and lactase,to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria and to improve gastrointestinal symptoms of patients after bariatric surgery.Probiotics can activate the AMP-activated protein kinase signaling pathway,improve lipid metabolism,and promote the recovery of symptom indicators of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease after bariatric surgery.Probiotics can regulate the release of neurotransmitters or metabolites by the microbiota through the gut-brain axis to affect brain activity and behavior,thus helping patients improve negative emotions after bariatric surgery.This article describes the intestinal microecological environment of obese patients and mechanism of the change after bariatric surgery and summarizes the effects and possible mechanisms of probiotics in improving the intestinal microecological environment of obese patients after bariatric surgery,to provide references for promoting the clinical application of probiotics.

Objective:To analyze the monitoring results of iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) in Hainan Province from 2011 to 2023, key prevention and control measures taken during this period, and the impact of related events on the monitoring results.Methods:From 2011 to 2023, a systematic sampling method was used to divide 21 cities (districts, counties) in Hainan Province into 5 districts based on east, west, south, north, and center each year. One township (street) was selected from each district, and 40 children aged 8 - 10 (non boarding students) and 20 pregnant women were selected from each township (street) for determination of iodine level of their household salt and urine samples. Based on the monitoring results, the impact of key events such as the pre reduction (2011), post reduction (implementation of new iodized salt standard, 2012 - 2023), salt industry system reform (2017), and the two-year campaign for endemic disease prevention and control (2019, 2000), on the salt iodine coverage rate and qualified iodized salt consumption rate, the urinary iodine level and its distribution in children and pregnant women were analyzed in Hainan Province. B-ultrasound was used to detect the situation of thyroid enlargement was analyzed.Results:(1) In 2011, the median iodine level in edible salt of residents in Hainan Province was 32.1 mg/kg. It was 30.8 mg/kg after the implementation of the new standard in 2012. In 2013, the salt iodine level of residents had significantly decreased to 25.9 mg/kg, with 24.5, 24.2, and 23.8 mg/kg in 2017, 2019, and 2020, respectively. The differences of median salt iodine levels between different years were statistically significant ( H = 29.01, P < 0.001). The coverage rate of iodized salt among residents in Hainan Province from 2011 to 2023 was 98.08% (80 727/82 308), and the difference between different years was statistically significant (χ 2 = 9.51, P = 0.023). The consumption rate of qualified iodized salt was 95.65% (78 738/82 308), and the difference between different years was statistically significant (χ 2 = 21.80, P < 0.001). (2) The median urinary iodine level of children from 2011 to 2023 was 177.5 μg/L, with a median of 204.2 μg/L in 2011. After the implementation of the new standard, the median urinary iodine level of children was 194.9 μg/L in 2012. In 2013, the median urinary iodine level in children decreased to 167.8 μg/L, and had remained within the range of 100 - < 200 μg/L thereafter. In 2017, 2019, and 2020, the median urinary iodine levels were 170.4, 172.8, and 186.3 μg/L, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in different years ( H = 1.67, P = 0.061). The proportion of children with urinary iodine < 100 μg/L from 2011 to 2023 was 16.29% (8 740/53 634), and the proportion of children with urinary iodine between 100 and < 200 μg/L was 43.96% (23 575/53 634). The differences between different years were statistically significant (χ 2 = 21.50, 23.40, P < 0.001). The childhood goiter rate from 2011 to 2023 was 0.19% (101/53 634). (3) The median urinary iodine level of pregnant women was 153 μg/L in 2011, it was 154.7 μg/L in 2012 after the implementation of the new standard, and it had remained within the range of 100 - < 150 μg/L since then. The median urinary iodine level of pregnant women was 126.2 μg/L in 2013. The median urinary iodine level in 2017, 2019 and 2020 were 123.5, 133.8, and 135.4 μg/L, respectively. There was a statistically significant difference in the median urinary iodine levels of pregnant women between different years ( H = 92.10, P < 0.001). From 2011 to 2023, the proportion of pregnant women with a median urinary iodine level < 150 μg/L was the highest (55.75%, 14 761/26 477). Conclusion:From 2011 to 2023, although the monitoring results of iodine deficiency disorders in children and pregnant women in Hainan Province have fluctuated, they are still in a state of continuous elimination of IDD.
