Objective:To design a systematic emotion management training (EMT) targeted the characteristics of coping strategies based on rehabilitation assistant and explore the feasibility of online EMT in improving cognitive coping strategies, mental health, and social support of patients with coronary heart disease(CHD).Methods:From June 2021 to December 2022, a total of 106 CHD patients were screened from cardiovascular units of a hospital in Zhengzhou. All participants were divided into the intervention group ( n=53) and control group ( n=53) using the coin toss method. The patients in intervention group received 7 weeks emotion management training on the basis of routine health education, the patients in control group received 7 weeks routine health education. The scores of cognitive coping strategies, anxiety, depression, and social support were measured at baseline and post-intervention. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS 24.0 software.The cognitive coping strategies, mental health and social support scores between two groups were compared using independent sample t-tests or paired t-test. Pearson analysis was used to examine the correlation between cognitive coping strategies, mental health and social support. Results:The scores of adaptive coping strategies, maladaptive coping strategies, depression, anxiety, insomnia and social support in patients with CHD were (69.52±7.60), (35.22±6.15), (8.82±2.66), (8.78±1.99), (10.97±2.86), and (57.48±9.79), respectively. After intervention, the scores of maladaptive coping strategies, self-blame, rumination, catastrophizing, blaming others, putting into perspective, insomnia, anxiety, and depression in the intervention group were significantly lower than those in the control group( t=-7.742, -4.395, -4.781, -6.105, -6.256, -5.327, -6.017, -7.288, -7.749, all P<0.05). The scores of adaptive coping strategies, positive reappraisal, refocusing on planning and social support were significantly higher than those of the control group( t=7.314, 6.733, 5.874, 3.562, all P<0.05). In the intervention group, there were statistically significant differences in cognitive coping strategies, anxiety, depression, insomnia and social support scores before and after the test(all P<0.05) and they were not statistically significantly different in the control group(all P>0.05). Correlation analysis showed that maladaptive coping strategies were positively correlated with depression and anxiety scores ( r=0.421, 0.408, both P<0.05). Adaptive coping strategies were negatively correlated with depression and insomnia scores ( r=-0.225, -0.240, both P<0.05), and positively correlated with social support ( r=0.219, P=0.034) among patients with CHD. Conclusion:The online EMT based on rehabilitation assistant may be a useful intervention for patients with CHD which can promote psychological health, social support as well as positively transforming maladaptive coping strategies into adaptive coping strategies.

Objective:To investigate the techniques of digit-tip replantation with anastomosis of superior digital arch artery in children and to evaluate the clinical effects.Methods:From January 2020 to September 2022, 62 children (62 digits) with completely severed digit-tips were admitted to the Department of Paediatric Orthopaedics, Suzhou Ruihua Orthopaedic Hospital. All the injury planes were distal to the nail root. All arterial dissections were distal to the digital arterial arch with the vessel calibre from 0.15 mm to 0.35 mm. The superior arch arteries of the digital arterial arch were successfully anastomosed. After surgery, a significant blood flux to the replanted digit body were observed. Postoperative necroses or failures were analysed for the causes. All children with survived digit-tips were entered into scheduled follow-ups through a combination of visit of outpatient clinics or via WeChat and telephone reviews. Postoperative follow-up included digit body fullness, motion of distal interphalangeal joint, nail growth, scarring, and response of the replanted digit-tips to needling. Clinical outcomes were evaluated according to the evaluation criteria for finger replantation function.Results:Of the 62 replanted digit-tips, 56 survived after replantation. Two digits had wound infection after surgery, and survived by dressing change and applying sensitive antibiotics. Necrosis occurred in 6 replanted digit-tips, of which 2 necrotic digit bodies were amputated, and the stumps at the distal interphalangeal joint were repaired. The other 4 necrotic digits were healed after dressing change under the scab due to a smaller digit body. A total of 52 children (including 2 survivals from postoperative infection after dressing changes and 4 survivals with healing underneath-eschar after necrosis) and with 10 lost during follow-up (including 2 with stump repairs after necrosis). The follow-up period ranged from 2 to 30 months, with an average of 6 months. The shape and function of replanted digit-tips recovered well. According to the evaluation criteria for finger replantation function, 44 digits were of excellent, 6 of good, and 2 of fair.Conclusion:In children, the superior arch arteries of digital arterial arches of the digit-tips are small in diameter. However, the vessels in smaller calibres can be anastomosed, should proper surgical techniques are applied. Therefore, due to the satisfactory outcomes, microsurgeons should try the best efforts to replant a digit severed at the plane of digit-tip.

Objective:To explore the effects of the first dorsal metatarsal artery terminal branch flaps in repairing skin and soft tissue defects of fingers.Methods:The study was a retrospective observational study. From October 2021 to December 2022, 44 patients with skin and soft tissue defects in 55 fingers who met the inclusion criteria were admitted to Suzhou Ruihua Orthopedic Hospital. There were 39 males (48 fingers) and 5 females (7 fingers), aged 18 to 54 years. The single wound area after debridement ranged from 1.5 cm×1.0 cm to 3.0 cm×2.0 cm. The color Doppler ultrasonography was performed before operation to locate the first dorsal metatarsal artery and its terminal branches, and a first dorsal metatarsal artery terminal branch flap was designed according to the wound condition, with the area of harvested single flap ranged from 1.7 cm×1.2 cm to 3.2 cm×2.2 cm. The wounds in the flap donor areas were transplanted with full-thickness skin grafts from ipsilateral inner calf. The type of flap was recorded, and the diameter of the terminal branch of the first dorsal metatarsal artery was measured during operation. The survival of the flap was observed one week after operation. The wound healing in the flap donor and recipient areas was observed two weeks after operation. At the last follow-up, the functional recovery of the affected fingers was evaluated by the trial standards for evaluation of partial function of upper extremity by the Hand Surgery Society of Chinese Medical Association, the sensory function of the flap was evaluated using the sensory function evaluation standard of British Medical Research Council, the scar in the donor and recipient areas of the flap was evaluated using the Vancouver scar scale (VSS), and the Allen test was conducted in the toe of flap donor area to evaluate the blood flow.Results:The monoblock type flaps in 31 patients and flow-through type flaps in 2 patients were used to repair wounds in single finger, 2 monoblock type flaps in 8 patients were used to repair wounds in 2 fingers at the same time, and the single-pedicle and two-flap type flaps in 3 patients were used to repair wounds in 2 fingers at the same time. The diameter of the fibular terminal branch of the first dorsal metatarsal artery ranged from 0.40 to 1.10 mm, and the diameter of the tibial terminal branch of the first dorsal metatarsal artery ranged from 0.70 to 0.75 mm. All the flaps survived at one week after operation, and all the wounds demonstrated optimal healing in the flap donor and recipient areas at two weeks after operation. All patients were followed up for 6 to 18 months. At the last follow-up, the functional recovery of 48 fingers was evaluated as excellent, and the functional recovery of 7 fingers was evaluated as good; the sensory function of 8 flaps was rated as S2, and the sensory function of 47 flaps was rated as S3, and the two-point discrimination distance of the flaps was 8-14 mm; the VSS scores in the flap recipient areas ranged from 3 to 6, and the VSS scores in the flap donor areas ranged from 4 to 7; the Allen test result of the toes in the donor areas were all negative with normal blood flow.Conclusions:The first dorsal metatarsal artery terminal branch flaps have several advantages, including relatively hidden donor area, shallow anatomical level, simple intraoperative operation, and flexible flap design. The flap is incised without damaging the main artery of the toe, which can repair skin and soft tissue defects of the fingers and ensure the utmost protection of the toes in donor areas. The fingers exhibit improved appearance, texture, sensation, and function after operation.

Objective:To explore the changes and influencing factors of prosocial behavior in children with leukemia during different stages of treatment, using latent growth curve models and latent class growth models.Methods:A total of 120 children with leukemia and their parents were selected as subjects from 2022 to 2023. All the children were evaluated at four assessment time points (diagnosed within 1 week, at the end of 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after diagnosed, denoted as T1-T4) using self-designed survey scale, strengths and difficulties questionnaire-prosocial behavior(SDQ-PSB), family closeness scale, and posttraumatic growth inventory.SPSS 23.0 and Mplus 7.4 softwares were used to establish latent growth curve models and latent class growth curve models, and to analyze the trajectory of prosocial behavior and potential classes, as well as to explore their influencing factors.Results:The SDQ-PSB scores of the children at T1-T4 were (1.24±0.46), (2.79±0.22), (3.88±0.36), and (5.88±0.32), respectively.The total score of SDQ-PSB at T1-T4 showed significant positive correlation ( r=0.32-0.79, all P<0.01). Children with leukemia were divided into two latent classes based on their prosocial behavior: the persistent improvement group and the abnormal group.The initial SDQ-PSB scores of the abnormal group were lower than those of the persistent improvement group, and there was no significant change in SDQ-PSB scores over time (slope mean=0.2, P>0.05). In contrast, the SDQ-PSB scores of the persistent improvement group showed a significant increase over time (slope mean=0.8, P<0.001). Children under 7 years old were more likely to belong to the persistent improvement group ( B=-0.64, OR=0.62, 95% CI=0.15-0.71, P=0.003). Under certain conditions, an increase in family closeness ( B=-0.84, OR=0.69, 95% CI =0.49-0.72, P=0.003) and enhanced posttraumatic growth ( B=-0.52, OR=0.86, 95% CI=0.83-0.95, P=0.025) also led to development towards the persistent improvement group. Conclusion:The trajectory of prosocial behavior development in children with leukemia after diagnosis is abnormal and marginal, but it shows a significant quadratic upward trend with significant group heterogeneity as the disease progresses. Influencing factors include age, family income, family closeness, and levels of posttraumatic growth.

Although immune checkpoint inhibitors(ICIs)are widely used in cancer therapy,showing great advantages and development potential,it is accompanied by a series of immune-related adverse reactions,of which myositis is a potentially fatal adverse event,which has attracted great attention.Herein,we reported a case of advanced esophageal cancer with myositis after treatment with camrelizumab,which was characterized by myasthenia gravis(MG)with myasthenic crisis,and recovered after active rescue by multidisciplinary cooperation.

BACKGROUND: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a complex autoimmune disease, and the mechanism of SLE is yet to be fully elucidated. The aim of this study was to explore the role of two-pore segment channel 2 (TPCN2) in SLE pathogenesis. METHODS: Quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of TPCN2 in SLE. We performed a loss-of-function assay by lentiviral construct in Jurkat and THP-1 cell. Knockdown of TPCN2 were confirmed at the RNA level by qRT-PCR and protein level by Western blotting. Cell Count Kit-8 and flow cytometry were used to analyze the cell proliferation, apoptosis, and cell cycle of TPCN2-deficient cells. In addition, gene expression profile of TPCN2-deficient cells was analyzed by RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). RESULTS: TPCN2 knockdown with short hairpin RNA (shRNA)-mediated lentiviruses inhibited cell proliferation, and induced apoptosis and cell-cycle arrest of G2/M phase in both Jurkat and THP-1 cells. We analyzed the transcriptome of knockdown-TPCN2-Jurkat cells, and screened the differential genes, which were enriched for the G2/M checkpoint, complement, and interleukin-6-Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription pathways, as well as changes in levels of forkhead box O, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B/mechanistic target of rapamycin, and T cell receptor pathways; moreover, TPCN2 significantly influenced cellular processes and biological regulation. CONCLUSION TPCN2 might be a potential protective factor against SLE.

Objective:To investigate internalized and externalized behavioral problems in children with leukemia and to analyze the influencing factors.Methods:A total of 121 children match the inclusion and exclusion criteria with leukemia hospitalized in Hematology and Oncology Department of 3 hospitals in Zhengzhou city from November 2021 to March 2022 were recruited through a cluster sampling method.The general information questionnaire, Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (parent version), Psychological Adaptation Scale, Perceived Social Support Questionnaire and Zarit Burden Interview were used for investigation.Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of internalized and externalized behavioral problems in children with leukemia.Results:Among 121 children with leukemia, there were 72 males and 49 females, with the age of (7.16 ± 3.18) years.The total score of interna-lized and externalized behavioral problems in 121 children with leukemia was (6.12±3.13) points and (5.49±2.92) points, respectively.Multiple linear regression analysis showed that burden of care ( β=0.412, P<0.001), family support ( β=-0.242, P=0.003) and monthly household income per capita ( β=-0.167, P=0.036) were the influencing factors of internalized behavioral problems in children with leukemia.Burden of care ( β=0.360, P<0.001), social integration ( β=-0.223, P=0.008) and caregiver age ( β=-0.176, P=0.035) were the influencing factors of externalized behavioral problems in children with leukemia. Conclusions:Children with leukemia suffer severe internalized and externalized behavioral problems.Burden of care of the caregiver, family support and social integration are predictors of adverse emotional and behavioral problems in children.

Objective:To explore the status quo and influencing factors of anxiety among caregivers of children with cancer during chemotherapy to provide a reference for clinical intervention.Methods:In this cross-sectional study, 133 caregivers of children with cancer during chemotherapy admitted at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University between May and August 2020 were selected by convenient sampling and investigated with the General Information Questionnaire, Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) , and Chinese version of Cognitive Fusion Questionnaire (CFQ) . In this study, a total of 133 questionnaires were distributed and 124 valid ones were returned, accounting for an effective response rate of 93.2%.Results:The GAD-7 score of the 124 caregivers was 10.50 (6.00, 15.75) ; the incidence of anxiety was 84.68% (105/124) ; and the Chinese version of CFQ score was 42.00 (32.00, 50.00) . There was a positive correlation between the GAD-7 and CFQ scores ( r=0.639, P<0.01) . Binary logistic regression analysis showed that cognitive fusion was a risk factor for anxiety among caregivers of children with cancer during chemotherapy ( P<0.01) . Conclusions:The anxiety and cognitive fusion levels among caregivers of children with cancer during chemotherapy are relatively high and positively correlated with each other. Targeted interventions should be provided in clinical practice for the cognitive fusion of caregivers of children with cancer during chemotherapy to reduce their anxiety and improve the quality of care for children.

Objective: To explore the quality of life and mental health status of adolescents in Zhengzhou, and to compare with HongKong and Taiwan. Methods: A total of 6 401 students from 12 primary and secondary schools in Zhengzhou City. A total of 3 642 students from HongKong and 1 547 students from Taiwan were selected by cluster sampling. And Padiatric Quality of Life Inventory Version 4.0, Self-Esteem Scale, General Self-efficacy Scale, Depression Anxiety Stress Scale and self-made general situation questionnaire were used to conduct questionnaire survey. Results: The total score of quality of life and the scores of each dimension in Zhengzhou were significantly higher than those in HongKong, while self-esteem and anxiety were lower than those of Taiwan adolescents（P<0.05). In addition to self-esteem, anxiety and stress, the scores of quality of life and mental health of adolescents of different grades and genders in Zhengzhou were statistically different(t=13.53，20.71，10.92，20.26，14.68，-16.03，21.26；6.16，3.81，-2.22，-0.33，8.76，4.16，2.71，P<0.01). The quality of life of adolescents in HongKong and Taiwan in different grades and genders were basically the same as those in Zhengzhou, and the differences of depression and stress scores in grades were the same as those in Zhengzhou. Conclusion The overall quality of life and mental health of adolescents in Zhengzhou is better than that in Hong Kong and Taiwan. It is necessary to explore the relationship between the quality of life and mental health of adolescents in order to improve their quality of life.

Objective:To explore the current situation of emotional and behavioral problems in children with hematological tumors, and the relationship with caregivers′ coping styles and family cohesion.Methods:Using cross-sectional study design and cluster sampling method, caregivers of children with hematological tumors hospitalized in hematology department of five third-class hospitals in Zhengzhou from November 2020 to January 2021 were selected as the respondents. The strengths and difficulties questionnaire (parent version), simple coping style questionnaire, family cohesion scale and self-made general information questionnaire were used for questionnaire survey. Statistical analysis was performed by SPSS 24.0 software using Spearman correlation analysis and multivariate Logistic regression analysis.Results:A total of 237 questionnaires were distributed and 214 valid questionnaires were collected. The abnormal detection rates of total difficulty score, emotional symptoms, conduct problems, hyperactivity, peer interaction problems and prosocial behavior were 17.8%, 22.9%, 10.7%, 8.4%, 39.7% and 13.6% respectively. The results of correlation analysis showed that caregivers′ positive coping was negatively correlated with the total score of difficulties, hyperactivity and peer interaction problems ( r=-0.186, -0.153, -0.174, all P<0.05), and positively correlated with the score of prosocial behavior ( r=0.214, P<0.05). Caregivers′ negative coping was positively correlated with the total score of difficulties, emotional symptoms and hyperactivity ( r=0.203, 0.204, 0.170, all P<0.05). Family cohesion was negatively correlated with the total score of difficulties, emotional symptoms, conduct problems, hyperactivity and peer interaction problems ( r=-0.254, -0.225, -0.183, -0.137, -0.195, all P<0.05), and positively correlated with prosocial behavior ( r=0.235, P<0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that positive coping of caregivers was a protective factor of peer interaction in children ( β=-0.050, OR=0.951, 95% CI=0.907-0.996), while family intimacy was also a protective factor for children with prosocial behavior ( β=-0.045, OR=0.956, 95% CI=0.923-0.991). Conclusion:The emotional and behavior problems of children with hematological tumors are serious, and the positive coping of caregivers and family cohesion have certain predictive value for the occurrence of negative emotional behavior problems in children, so medical staff should take corresponding measures to reduce the occurrence of emotional and behavior problems in children.
