Objective: To explore the relationship between sleep characteristics, physical activity patterns, with depressive and anxiety symptoms in college students, so as to provide reference for student mental health promotion. Methods: From September to November 2023, a convenience sampling method was used to select 7 954 college students aged 18-22 years from 9 universities in Shanghai, Hubei, and Jiangxi. Assessments were conducted using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short-Form (IPAQ-SF), Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale-7 (GAD-7), and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) to evaluate physical activity, depressive and anxiety symptoms, and sleep quality, respectively. Logistic regression analysis was employed to explore the impact of sleep characteristics and physical activity patterns on depressive and anxiety symptoms and their comorbidity among college students. Results: The detection rates for depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and comorbid depression and anxiety symptoms were 25.67%, 35.39%, and 23.15%, respectively. Factors such as gender, grade, household registration, parental education level, annual family income, family structure, and dietary habits were all associated with the detection rates of depressive and anxiety symptoms and their comorbidity (χ2=4.41-118.39, P<0.05). Physical activity patterns, sleep duration, sleep quality, and sleepwake characteristics were also associated with the occurrence of depressive and anxiety symptoms and their comorbidity (χ2=9.66-627.70, P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that college students who stayed up late and slept less than 7 had the highest risk of depressive and anxiety symptoms and their comorbidity (OR=1.93, 1.85, 1.88, P<0.05). Compared to regular physical activity patterns, insufficient physical activity patterns were associated with an increased risk of depressive and anxiety symptoms (all OR=1.18, P<0.05). Further stratified analysis results showed that the risk of depression, anxiety and their comorbidity increased in college students who stayed up late and slept less than 7 h, went to bed before midnight and slept less than 7 h, or went to bed before midnight and slept more than 7 h but did not have sufficient physical activity (P<0.05). Conclusions Sleep characteristics and physical activity patterns significantly affect depressive and anxiety symptoms in college students. Universities should strengthen sleep management and implement flexible physical activity interventions to help students establish healthy lifestyles.

ObjectiveTo analyze the influencing factors for recurrence in successfully treated pulmonary tuberculosis patients with isoniazid-resistant and rifampicin-sensitive in Shaoxing City, Zhejiang Province. MethodsData on general demographic information, treatment information and drug susceptibility test results for pulmonary tuberculosis patients admitted to the designated tuberculosis medical institutions and registered in the tuberculosis information management system was collected in Shaoxing City from January 2011 to August 2024. A total of 428 patients with isoniazid resistance (including isoniazid single resistance and multiple resistance) but who were successfully treated were included in the study. Information for the recurrence after successful treatment of the patients was analyzed. The Cox proportional hazards models were used to analyze the influencing factors of recurrence in patients. ResultsAmong the 428 successfully treated patients included in the study, 31 cases (accounting for 7.24%) had recurrence by the end of the observation period, with a recurrence rate density of 1.31 per 100 person-years and a median recurrence time of 0.99 (0.08, 8.27) years. Among the relapsed population, 51.61% of the patients relapsed within one year after successful treatment. 77.42% of the patients relapsed within two years after successful treatment. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that when isoniazid resistance was discovered, the diagnosis classification of relapse (HR=4.115, 95%CI: 1.734‒9.767) and positive 0-month sequence smear (HR=4.457, 95%CI: 1.053‒18.866) were risk factors for recurrence after successful treatment in patients. ConclusionRegular follow-up should be strengthened for at least two years after the successful treatment of isoniazid-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis patients. Special attention should be paid to the treatment effect and regular re-examination and monitoring after the end of the treatment course of isoniazid-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis patients who have been re-treated and were sputum smear positive at baseline, so as to prevent recurrence and disease progression in high-risk populations.

The standardized workflow of computer-aided static guided implant surgery includes preoperative exami-nation,data acquisition,guide design,guide fabrication and surgery.Errors may occur at each step,leading to irrevers-ible cumulative effects and thus impacting the accuracy of implant placement.However,clinicians tend to focus on fac-tors causing errors in surgical operations,ignoring the possibility of irreversible errors in nonstandard guided surgery.Based on the clinical practice of domestic experts and research progress at home and abroad,this paper summarizes the sources of errors in guided implant surgery from the perspectives of preoperative inspection,data collection,guide de-signing and manufacturing and describes strategies to resolve errors so as to gain expert consensus.Consensus recom-mendation:1.Preoperative considerations:the appropriate implant guide type should be selected according to the pa-tient's oral condition before surgery,and a retaining screw-assisted support guide should be selected if necessary.2.Da-ta acquisition should be standardized as much as possible,including beam CT and extraoral scanning.CBCT performed with the patient's head fixed and with a small field of view is recommended.For patients with metal prostheses inside the mouth,a registration marker guide should be used,and the ambient temperature and light of the external oral scan-ner should be reasonably controlled.3.Optimization of computer-aided design:it is recommended to select a handle-guided planting system and a closed metal sleeve and to register images by overlapping markers.Properly designing the retaining screws,extending the support structure of the guide plate and increasing the length of the guide section are methods to feasibly reduce the incidence of surgical errors.4.Improving computer-aided production:it is also crucial to set the best printing parameters according to different printing technologies and to choose the most appropriate postpro-cessing procedures.

Objective:To assess the value of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) burden in predicting prognosis in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with anterior circulation large vessel occlusion (LVO) after endovascular therapy (EVT).Methods:The study was a cross-sectional study. A total of 242 patients with AIS due to anterior circulation LVO received EVT in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from February 2018 to September 2022. The clinical and imaging data of all patients were analyzed retrospectively. On follow-up MRI within 7 days after EVT, CSVD features [white matter hyperintensity (WMH), lacune, perivascular space, cerebral microbleed, cerebral atrophy] and CSVD burden score (0-5) was evaluated. Modified Rankin scale (mRS) score at 90 days after EVT was assessed. Patients were categorized into a mild burden group (0-1 points) and a moderate-severe burden group (2-5 points) based on CSVD burden score. Meanwhile, patients were categorized into a good prognosis group (0-2 points) and a bad prognosis group (3-6 points) based on mRS score at 90 days after EVT. Mann-Whitney U test and χ2 test were used to compare the difference of clinical and imaging indexes between the 2 groups, and variables with P<0.1 in the univariate analysis were included in the multifactorial logistic regression to screen for independent factors to predict the prognosis. Results:There were 169 patients in the good prognosis group and 73 patients in the bad prognosis group out of 242 patients. Compared with the good prognosis group, age, incidence of hyperlipidemia, baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores, incidence of hemorrhagic conversion, CSVD burden scores, incidence of periventricular WMH scores of 3 and/or deep WMH scores≥2, and incidence of moderate-severe cerebral atrophy of patients in the bad prognosis group were higher, and the incidence of complete recanalization was lower (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed hyperlipemia ( OR=8.438, 95% CI 1.691-42.119, P=0.009), baseline NIHSS score ( OR=1.103, 95% CI 1.047-1.162, P<0.001), complete recanalization ( OR=0.131, 95% CI 0.038-0.454, P=0.001) and hemorrhage transformation ( OR=1.952, 95% CI 1.031-3.697, P=0.040) were independent factors for the prognosis of EVT in patients with LVO AIS. There were 157 cases in the mild burden group and 85 cases in the moderate-severe burden group. The 90-day mRS score was higher in the moderate-severe burden group compared with the mild burden group ( Z=-2.24, P=0.025). Conclusion:CSVD burden has some clinical implications in predicting the prognosis of EVT in patients with anterior circulation LVO AIS.

Objective:To investigate the effect of zirconia personalized gingival structure on peri-implant soft and hard tissue stability after single-tooth implant restorations in patients with thin gingival biotypes in the anterior region, with a view to provide a clinical guideline.Methods:This retrospective study included 20 patients with thin gingival biotype and implant restorations in the anterior region. These patients included 9 males and 11 females, and the age was (35.2± 10.3) years. The patients were from the Department of Periodontal Implantology, Stomatology Hospital, Southern Medical University from January 2018 to December 2022. Computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) techniques were used to fabricate a titanium base zirconia personalized gingival structure to maintain the soft-tissue perforated gingival contour of the anterior esthetic zone. This structure consists of two modalities: titanium base + zirconia outer crown or titanium base personalized zirconia abutment + zirconia outer crown. Clinical outcomes were recorded immediately and after delivery of the final restorations. Implant retention was recorded, esthetic scoring was performed using the pink esthetic index, the amount of bone resorption at the implant margins was measured based on digitized apical radiographs, and periodontal health was evaluated using the modified plaque index and the modified bleeding index.Results:The survival rate of the 20 implants was 100% after 3 years of wearing the final restorations, with a pink aesthetic score of 9.3±0.9. Bone resorption at the proximal and distal mesial margins of the implants was 0.09 (-0.21, 0.20) mm, 0.17 (-0.12, 0.27) mm after 3 years, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant when compared to bone resorption immediately after placement of the final restoration [0(0, 0) mm] ( Z=-1.03, P=0.394; Z=-2.05, P=0.065). Conclusions:Zirconia personalized gingival structure maintains the stability of peri-implant hard and soft tissues of thin gingival biotypes in the anterior region.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of optic nerve sheath diameter(ONSD)measured on thin-slice CT scan in the diagnosis and prognostic assessment of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis(CVST).Methods The clinical data of patients with CVST,who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University of China to receive treatment from January 1,2016 to December 31,2022,were retrospectively analyzed.The difference in ONSD was compared between CVST patients and normal population,the postoperative changes in ONSD was analyzed.Results A total of 49 patients with CVST(CVST group)and 49 normal persons having no brain disorders(control group)were enrolled in this study.In CVST group,the preoperative ONSD was(5.33±0.50)mm,which was significantly higher than(4.40±0.40)mm in control group(P＜0.001),the postoperative ONSD remarkably decreased to(4.98±0.59)mm(P＜0.01).The difference value between postoperative ONSD and preoperative ONSD in the patients receiving pure anticoagulation treatment was not statistically significant different from that in the patients receiving endovascular treatment[(-0.43±0.22)mm vs.(-0.40±0.42)mm,P=0.84].The preoperative ONSD in the patients having intracranial hemorrhage and in the patients having no intracranial hemorrhage was(5.26±0.51)mm and(5.41±0.49)mm respectively(P=0.31),and the difference value between postoperative ONSD and preoperative ONSD was(-0.39±0.40)mm and(-0.45±0.25)mm respectively(P=0.66).At the three-month follow-up visit,the difference in ONSD between the patients having a good prognosis(mRS score being 0-2 points)and the patients having a poor prognosis was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Conclusion ONSD that is measured on plain head CT scan can be used as a response indicator of elevated intracranial pressure in CVST patients,which can be used to monitor the changes in intracranial pressure before and after treatment,but its value in assessing the curative efficacy of different therapeutic methods needs to be further explored.

Objective To analyze the expression level of YEATS2 in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)about its clinical prognosis and therapeutic value based on biological information from the cancer genome atlas(TCGA)and human protein atlas(HPA)databases.Methods The mRNA expression data and clinical information of HCC were downloaded from the TCGA database,the expression of YEATS2 between HCC tissues and normal tissues was analyzed by using the R software,and the protein expression differences were preliminary verified by the HPA database.The expression differences of YEATS2 between various clinical features of HCC were compared,and their effects on the survival of HCC patients by Kaplan-Meier method and COX regression analysis were then evaluated.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were plotted to evaluate their diagnostic values.The biological functions of YEATS2 in HCC were analyzed using gene ontology(GO)and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes(KEGG)enrichment analysis.The relationship between YEATS2 expression and tumor microenvironment(TME)was analyzed by the"ESTIMATE"algorithm,and its relationship with tumor-infiltrating immune cells(TIICs)was assessed by CIBERSORT.Analysis of YEATS2 expression levels to immune checkpoints and drug sensitivity was performed using the R package.Results The expression of YEATS2 was increased in HCC tissues(P=4.96e-21),and its expression level was correlated with age,clinical stage,pathological grade and T stage(all P＜0.05).Overall survival(OS)(P＜0.001)and progression-free survival(FPS)(P=0.016)were decreased in HCC patients with high expression of YEATS2,COX regression results showed that the expression level ofYEATS2 was associated with poor prognosis in HCC patients(OS:HR=2.167,95％CI:1.441～3.261,P=2.06e-04),and it was an independent risk factor for predicting poor prognosis in HCC patients(OS:HR=1.891,95％CI:1.243～2.877,P=0.003).The ROC curve suggested the AUCs for 1,3 and 5 years were 0.677,0.622 and 0.612,respectively,indicating good predictive ability.The TCGA database screened a total of 6 764 differential genes in the YEATS2 high and low expression groups,of which 4 094 genes were up-regulated and 2 670 genes were down-regulated in the YEATS2 high expression group.The results of GO and KEGG enrichment analyses showed that the differentially differentiated genes in the YEATS2 high expression group were mainly enriched in immunoregulation,and cell cycle regulation drug resistance pathway.The results of the TME score showed that the YEATS2 high expression group caused a decrease in immunity score(P＜0.01).The correlation between YEATS2 and TIICs showed that YEATS2 expression was positively correlated with the level of M0-type macrophage infiltration levels(r=0.48,P＜0.001)and 23 immune checkpoint genes(r=0.20～0.46,all P＜0.05),and was negatively correlated with the CD8+T-cells,plasma cells and monocyte(r=-0.26,-0.29,-0.30,P=0.021,0.011,0.008).Drug sensitivity analysis showed that the half maximal inhibitory concentration(IC50)of cabozantinib,lincitinib,doxorubicin,and cyclobenzaprine in patients with high expression of YEATS2 was higher than those in patients with low expression(all P＜0.01).Conclusion YEATS2 was highly expressed in HCC,and the expression level was associated with poor prognosis in HCC patients.YEATS2 can be used as a biomarker for the clinical early diagnosis,prognosis and immunotherapy of HCC,which may provide new ideas for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

The gene encoding regulatory subunit 15 A of protein phosphatase 1 produces a protein that is a universally present protein phosphatase in eukaryotic cells.In this study,genomic DNAs were extracted from the blood of 89 Chinese Holstein cows and were used as templates for PCR amplification of the target fragment of the PPP1R15A gene.The product was tested and a polymor-phic site,E3-250T＞A was found.The polymorphism of this side and its correlation with milk pro-duction traits in Chinese Holstein cattle were statistically analyzed using SPSS 23.0 software.The findings revealed three genotypes at this site:AA,AT and TT.Cows possessing the AT and TT genotypes exhibited significant differences(P＜0.01)in milk fat and solid non-fat content com-pared to those with the AA genotype.While no significant differences were noted for other milk production traits,including milk yield,protein,lactose,somatic cell count,blood urea nitrogen,and corrected milk.The identification of functional SNPs in the PPP1R15A gene provides a theoretical basis for further research and identification of causal variations in the cow PPP1R15A gene.

Objective To observe the value of automated net water uptake(CTP-aNWU)based on CT perfusion(CTP)for predicting neurological prognosis of acute ischemic stroke(AIS).Methods A total of 145 AIS patients due to anterior circulation large vessel occlusion were retrospectively enrolled,and the clinical data at admission and follow-up were collected.Alberta stroke program early CT score net water uptake(ASPECTS-NWU)was analyzed,and CTP-aNWU of the infarct core was obtained based on CTP and non-contrast CT(NCCT).According to modified Rankin scale(mRS)score 90 days after the onset of infarction,the patients were divided into favorable prognosis group(mRS score≤2,n=54)and poor prognosis group(mRS score＞2,n=91).The clinical data and imaging data were compared between groups,and the independent predictors of neurological prognosis of AIS were evaluated,and the predictive efficacies were assessed.Results There were significant differences in age,admission NIHSS score and admission ASPECTS of patients,as well as in ASPECTS-NWU,CTP-aNWU,infarct core volume,hypoperfusion factor of the lesions between groups(all P＜0.05).The infarct core volume(OR=0.977[0.963 to 0.992],P=0.002)and CTP-aNWU(OR=0.876[0.793 to 0.969],P=0.010)were independent predictors of neurological prognosis of AIS.The area under the curve(AUC)of receiver operating characteristic curve of CTP-aNWU alone for predicting neurological prognosis of AIS patients 90 days after the onset was 0.634(95％CI[0.550,0.713]),which was 0.790(95％CI[0.714,0.853])of CTP-aNWU combined with infarct core volume,and the latter was better than the former(Z=3.500,P＜0.001).Conclusion CTP-aNWU was an independent predictor of neurological prognosis 90 days after the onset of AIS.Combining CTP-aNWU with infarct core volume could improve the predicting efficacy.

Background/Aims: Metabolic syndrome is common in patients with acute pancreatitis and its components have been reported to be associated with infectious complications. In this post hoc analysis, we aimed to evaluate whether metabolic abnormalities impact the effect of immuneenhancing thymosin alpha-1 (Tα1) therapy in acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP) patients. Methods: All data were obtained from the database for a multicenter randomized clinical trial that evaluated the efficacy of Tα1 in ANP patients. Patients who discontinued the Tα1 treatment prematurely were excluded. The primary outcome was 90-day infected pancreatic necrosis (IPN) after randomization. Three post hoc subgroups were defined based on the presence of hyperglycemia, hypertriglyceridemia, or both at the time of randomization. In each subgroup, the correlation between Tα1 and 90-day IPN was assessed using the Cox proportional-hazards regression model. Multivariable propensity-score methods were used to control potential bias. Results: Overall, 502 participants were included in this post hoc analysis (248 received Tα1 treatment and 254 received matching placebo treatment). Among them, 271 (54.0%) had hyperglycemia, 371 (73.9%) had hypertriglyceridemia and 229 (45.6%) had both. Tα1 therapy was associated with reduced incidence of IPN among patients with hyperglycemia (18.8% vs 29.7%: hazard ratio, 0.80; 95% confidence interval, 0.37 to 0.97; p=0.03), but not in the other subgroups. Additional multivariate regression models using three propensity-score methods yielded similar results. Conclusions Among ANP patients with hyperglycemia, immune-enhancing Tα1 treatment was associated with a reduced risk of IPN (ClinicalTrials.gov, Registry number: NCT02473406).
