		                        			Objective:
		                        			To investigate the changing trends for associations of anxiety and depressive symptoms with smartphone addiction among middle school students, so as to provide a scientific basis for preventing smartphone addiction in middle school students.
		                        		
		                        			Methods:
		                        			From 2022 to 2023, a method of combining convenient sampling with cluster sampling was used to select 8 923 middle school students from 27 junior high schools and 3 senior high schools in a district of Shenzhen City between September 2022 (baseline, T1) and September 2023 (follow up, T2). The Smartphone Addiction Scale-Short Version (SAS-SV), Patients Health Questionnaire-9 Item (PHQ-9), and Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item Scale (GAD-7) were administered to assess smartphone addiction, anxiety and depressive symptoms. Mixed effects models were used to analyze the association of anxiety and depressive symptoms with smartphone addiction among middle school students.
		                        		
		                        			Results:
		                        			From September 2022 to September 2023, the reported prevalence of smartphone addiction increased from 24.22% to 25.25% ( χ 2=45.71); and smartphone addiction scores [ 24.00 (16.00, 32.00),25.00(16.00, 33.00)], anxiety symptom scores [2.00(0.00, 7.00),3.00(0.00, 7.00)] and depressive symptom scores[3.00(0.00, 8.00),5.00(0.00, 9.00)] all significantly increased ( Z =-17.43, -42.38, -41.57) (all  P <0.05). There were statistically significant difference in the distribution of anxiety and depression symptom levels among middle school students in 2022 and 2023 ( χ 2=85.15, 106.85, both  P <0.05). After adjusting for covariates such as age, gender and family background, mixed effects models revealed dose response associations of anxiety and depressive symptoms with smartphone addiction among middle school students:mild anxiety symptom( OR =3.22), moderate to severe anxiety symptom ( OR =5.36), mild depressive symptom ( OR =3.32) and moderate to severe depressive symptom ( OR =6.13) were significantly associated with higher risks of smartphone addiction (all  P <0.05). Interaction effect analysis found that co existing anxiety and depressive symptoms synergistically increased addiction risk by 5.60 times ( OR =5.60) compared to the asymptomatic group, with 32% of the combined risk attributable to their interaction ( S=1.64, AP =0.32)(both  P < 0.05 ).
		                        		
		                        			Conclusions
		                        			Anxiety and depressive symptoms are significantly associated with smartphone addiction, exhibiting a synergistic effect. Attention should be paid to emotional issues and smartphone addiction among middle school students.

		                        			ObjectiveBy exploring the influencing factors of readmission in patients with stable angina of coronary heart disease (CHD) based on real-world clinical data, to establish a risk prediction model of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine, in order to provide a basis for early identification of high-risk populations and reducing readmission rates. MethodsA prospective clinical study was conducted involving patients with stable angina pectoris of CHD, who were divided into a training set and a validation set at a 7∶3 ratio. General information, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM)-related data, and laboratory test results were uniformly collected. After a one-year follow-up, patients were classified into a readmission group and a non-readmission group based on whether they were readmitted. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify independent risk factors for readmission. A risk prediction model of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine was constructed and visualized using a nomogram. The model was validated and evaluated in terms of discrimination, calibration, and clinical decision curve analysis. ResultsA total of 682 patients were included, with 477 in the training set and 205 in the validation set, among whom 89 patients were readmitted. Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified heart failure history [OR = 6.93, 95% CI (1.58, 30.45)], wiry pulse [OR = 2.58, 95% CI (1.42, 4.72)], weak pulse [OR = 3.97, 95% CI (2.06, 7.67)], teeth-marked tongue [OR = 4.38, 95% CI (2.32, 8.27)], blood stasis constitution [OR = 2.17, 95% CI (1.06, 4.44)], phlegm-stasis mutual syndrome [OR = 3.64, 95% CI (1.87, 7.09)], and elevated non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol [OR = 1.30, 95% CI (1.01, 1.69)] as influencing factors of readmission. These factors were used as predictors to construct a nomogram-based risk prediction model for readmission in patients with stable angina. The model demonstrated moderate predictive capability, with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.818 [95% CI (0.781, 0.852)] in the training set and 0.816 [95% CI (0.779, 0.850)] in the validation set. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed good calibration (χ² = 4.55, P = 0.80), and the model's predictive ability was stable. When the threshold probability exceeded 5%, the clinical net benefit of using the model to predict readmission risk was significantly higher than intervening in all patients. ConclusionHistory of heart failure, teeth-marked tongue, weak pulse, wiry pulse, phlegm-stasis mutual syndrome, blood stasis constitution, and non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol are influencing factors for readmission in patients with stable angina of CHD. A clinical prediction model was developed based on these factors, which showed good discrimination, calibration, and clinical utility, providing a scientific basis for predicting readmission events in patients with stable angina.

		                        			ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy of TCM health management based on tertiary management system for patients with myocardial infarction (MI). MethodsA total of 277 patients with non-acute MI were enrolled and given comprehensive TCM health management strategies including health education, lifestyle adjustment, risk factors control, medication and TCM appropriate techniques management through a tertiary management system with "the patient as the core, village/community physicians as the main executive body, and tertiary TCM hospital specialists as the leading body", for a period of 12 months by using a prospective single-arm cohort study. Through patient reporting and medical records surveys, various indicators before and after 12-month management were collected and compared. The primary efficacy indicators were readmission rate and recurrent exacerbation rate, and the secondary efficacy indicators included disease awareness-related indicators, lifestyle behavior-related indicators, cardiovascular risk factor-related indicators and Canadian cardiovascular society (CCS) cardiac function classification. ResultsA total of 255 patients completed the study and were included in the final analysis. The recurrent exacerbation and readmission rates of patients after management were 23.14% (59 cases) and 20.25% (49 cases), respectively, significantly lower than 36.08% (92 cases) and 53.72% (130 cases) before management (P<0.05). Except for knowledge on diabetes diagnostic criteria with no significant difference before and after management (P>0.05), awareness of other knowledge with regard to the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases were improved after management (P<0.01), as well as the total score (P<0.01). In terms of daily life behaviors, the rates of salty diet, sweet diet and greasy diet were significantly lower than baseline, while the rate of moderate exercise was significantly higher (P<0.05 or P<0.01); the rates of ongoing smoking and vigorous exercise were not significantly changed (P>0.05). For cardiovascular risk factors, patients' total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, triglycerides, fasting glucose, total depression assessment scale score, and total anxiety assessment scale score were significantly reduced after management (P<0.01). Systolic blood pressure and body mass index (BMI) were both higher after management (P<0.05 or P<0.01), and there was no statistically significant difference in diastolic blood pressure (P>0.05). In terms of the cardiovascular disease risk factors reaching the standard levels, the rate of LDL cholesterol <1.8 mmol/L significantly increased (P<0.01), while the rate of BMI <24 kg/m2 and the rate of systolic blood pressure <140 mmHg both decreased significantly (P<0.05 or P<0.01) from baseline; the diastolic blood pressure and rate of fasting glucose <7.0 mmol/L were not significantly changed (P>0.05). The patients' CCS cardiac function classification was significantly reduced (P<0.05). ConclusionTCM health management based on the tertiary management system can enhance MI patients' awareness of the disease, change poor lifestyle habits, reduce risk factors such as blood lipids and blood glucose, improve anxiety and depression, increase activity tolerance, and reduce their recurrence exacerbation and readmission rates, which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Methods  Pharyngeal swab specimens from 16,500 patients with suspected influenza infection admitted to our hospital from January 2020 to December 2022 were selected. Viral detection and serotyping were performed by fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Furthermore, the epidemiological and clinical data of patients were collected to analyze the clinical features and epidemiological characteristics of influenza viruses.  Results  A total of 16 500 clinical specimens were tested in this study, with a positive detection rate of 16.27% (2 684/16 500). The positive detection rate was 5.10% (862/16 500) for influenza A virus, 10.13% (1 672/16 500) for influenza B virus and 0.91% (150/16 500) for mixed influenza. The positive detection rate of influenza viruses was on the rise from 2020 to 2022 , reaching 18.43% in 2022. Seasonal distribution analysis denoted that the highest positive detection rates were observed in spring (18.23%) and winter (19.72%), with statistical difference (P<0.05). In terms of age distribution, patients<12 years (19.14%) had the highest positive detection rate, followed by those >60 years (17.71%), with statistical difference (P<0.05). From 2020 to 2022, the positive detection rate of influenza virus was 16.89% in males, which was higher than 15.63% in females (P<0.05). The main clinical symptoms were fever (86.89%) and cough (80.27%) for influenza A virus infections, cough (92.52%) and fever (86.06%) for influenza B virus infections, and cough (94.00%), fever (88.00%) and runny nose (86.00%) for mixed infections.  Conclusion  The influenza B viruses are the leading cause of influenza in Hubei from 2020 to 2022, and the infection demonstrates an increasing annual trend, with a high prevalence in winter and spring. Furthermore, children and the elderly are high-risk populations, and clinical manifestions are mainly cough and fever.

		                        			ObjectiveTo investigate the current status of secondary prevention of stable angina in patients with coronary heart disease in three regions of China, namely Henan Province, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, and Tianjin City, and analyze the the influencing factors. MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted to include patients with stable angina with coronary heart disease in Henan, Tianjin and Xinjiang from August 10, 2020 to March 14, 2021. General information, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome elements, prescriptions and other data of patients were collected, and clinical characteristics, blood pressure, blood lipid and blood glucose of patients were analyzed; the patients were divided into groups according to whether their blood pressure, blood lipid and blood glucose were up to standard. With the most common syndrome element as the main variable, region, age and gender as covariables, Logistic regression equation was incorporated to analyze the influencing factors for the patients' blood pressure, blood lipid and blood glucose being up to standard. ResultsA total of 1061 coronary heart disease patients with stable angina were included, including 658 in Henan, 210 in Xinjiang, and 193 in Tianjin. The clinical characteristics of patients in the three regions showed statistical different in age, sex, disease course, complication, blood pressure, blood lipid, blood glucose, smoking, drinking, living habits, and medication treatment (P<0.05 or P<0.01). For the included patients, qi deficiency (79.55%, 844/1061) and blood stasis (39.96%, 424/1061) were the main syndrome elements. The overall compliance rate of blood pressure was 48.89% (506/1035), blood lipids 12.68% (133/1049) and blood glucose 48.18% (504/1046). Qi deficiency was the independent factor affecting the blood pressure of coronary heart disease patients with stable angina combined with hypertension (P = 0.029,95%CI [1.048, 2.369]), and the independent factors influencing the blood lipid standard of coronary heart disease patients with stable angina (P = 0.011, 95%CI [1.133, 2.646]), but not the independent factors affecting blood glucose standard in coronary heart disease patients with diabetes (P>0.05). ConclusionCoronary artery disease patients with stable angina have geographical variability in clinical characteristics and distribution of TCM syndrome elements, and the overall control of blood pressure, blood lipids, and blood glucose is poor, and qi deficiency syndrome is an independent risk factor affecting the control of blood pressure and blood lipids.

		                        			Objective:To establish an immortalized human keloid fibroblasts(KFbs) cell line and identify its characteristics and functions.Methods:The specimen was obtained from a 32-year-old female patient who underwent surgical resection of an earlobe keloid at Peking University Third Hospital in November 2019. The keloid tissue obtained was removed from the subcutaneous fat and epidermis. It was then separated and cultured using the tissue sticking method to obtain primary KFbs, which were passaged using the trypsin digestion method. After the primary KFbs were infected with an SV40 lentivirus, purified by puromycin, and passaged, a human KFbs cell line was established. Chromosomal karyotype analysis, short tandem repeat (STR) profiling, and gender gene detection were conducted to identify the primary KFbs and the cell line. The CCK-8 method was used to assess the proliferation ability of the cells. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and Western blotting were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression levels of specific genes (PGK1, ENO1, LDHA, GLUT1, TGF-β1, COL1, COL3, FN). The comparative analysis of relevant data between primary KFbs and the cell line was conducted using t-test, and P<0.05 indicated statistical significance. Results:The morphology of both the primary KFbs and the cell line was typically spindle-shaped. The cell line morphology was basically similar to that of the primary KFbs, which were continuously cultured and passaged for 20 generations. The gender gene(Amelogenin) detection showed both were females. The chromosome karyotyping of the primary KFbs and cell line was satisfactory, maintaining the fundamental characteristics of normal cells without undergoing malignant transformation. The STR identification results showed that no multiple alleles were found in the cell line, indicating a normal cell genotype. Furthermore, the cell line did not match any entries in known cell databases. After 24, 48, and 72 hours of culture, the proliferation ability of the cell line increased by 76.1%, 125.8%, and 60.3% compared to primary KFbs. The proliferation rates of the cell line were significantly faster than those of primary KFbs ( P<0.05). The mRNA and protein expression levels of the aforementioned genes in the cell line showed no significant changes compared to the primary KFbs ( P>0.05). Conclusion:An immortalized human KFbs cell line was successfully established, showing no significant changes in morphology, characterization, and function, while exhibiting a faster proliferation rate compared to that of primary KFbs.

Results:The morphology of both the primary KFbs and the cell line was typically spindle-shaped. The cell line morphology was basically similar to that of the primary KFbs, which were continuously cultured and passaged for 20 generations. The gender gene(Amelogenin) detection showed both were females. The chromosome karyotyping of the primary KFbs and cell line was satisfactory, maintaining the fundamental characteristics of normal cells without undergoing malignant transformation. The STR identification results showed that no multiple alleles were found in the cell line, indicating a normal cell genotype. Furthermore, the cell line did not match any entries in known cell databases. After 24, 48, and 72 hours of culture, the proliferation ability of the cell line increased by 76.1%, 125.8%, and 60.3% compared to primary KFbs. The proliferation rates of the cell line were significantly faster than those of primary KFbs ( P<0.05). The mRNA and protein expression levels of the aforementioned genes in the cell line showed no significant changes compared to the primary KFbs ( P>0.05). Conclusion:An immortalized human KFbs cell line was successfully established, showing no significant changes in morphology, characterization, and function, while exhibiting a faster proliferation rate compared to that of primary KFbs.

		                        			Objective     To investigate the safety and feasibility of day surgery for patients with palmar hyperhidrosis based on the principles of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS). Methods     We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of consecutive patients who underwent endoscopic thoracic sympathicotomy (ETS) in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from March 2020 to December 2021. Patients were divided into a day surgery group and a conventional group according to their perioperative management methods. The patients in the day surgery group underwent an optimized perioperative procedure under the guidance of ERAS, and were ventilated with a laryngeal or face mask during the operation. The patients in the conventional group completed the preoperative examination, operation and postoperative observation according to the conventional procedures, and were intubated with a single-lumen endotracheal tube. The demographic characteristics, operation time, hospital stay, postoperative complications, and hospitalization cost were compared between the two groups. Results     Finally 172 patients were collected, including 90 males and 82 females, with an average age of 25.97±7.43 years. There were 86 patients in each group. All patients ceased suffering from palmar sweating after surgery. No patient experienced massive bleeding or conversion to thoracotomy. There was no statistical difference in operation time between the two groups (P=0.534). Patients in the day surgery group were discharged within 24 hours. The average hospital stay in the conventional group was 2.09±0.41 days. Incidence of postoperative respiratory complications, and the hospitalization cost of the day surgery group were significantly lower than those of the conventional group (P<0.001). The satisfaction rate in both groups was greater than 95%. Conclusion     Day surgery for patients with palmar hyperhidrosis based on the principles of ERAS is safe and feasible, which can reduce postoperative complications, shorten the length of hospital stay and save the cost of hospitalization.
