Objective:
To examine the reciprocal relationships of anxiety and depressive symptoms,uncertainty stress with academic buoyancy among college students, providing evidence for mental health promotion and academic resilience enhancement.
Methods:
A multi stage cluster random sampling method was used to selected 741 undergraduates from grade 1 to 2 of a university in Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province. Participants completed two waves of surveys (T1: October 2022; T2: October 2023) using the Uncertainty Stress Scale, Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7), and Academic Buoyancy Scale. Cross lagged models analyzed bidirectional relationships between three mental health variables and academic buoyancy, followed by latent variable modeling integrating all mental health dimensions.
Results:
Cross lagged model results revealed that T1 uncertainty stress negatively predicted T2 academic buoyancy ( β =-0.14), while T1 academic buoyancy negatively predicted T2 uncertainty stress ( β =-0.11); T1 depressive symptom negatively predicted T2 academic buoyancy ( β =-0.08), while T1 academic buoyancy negatively predicted T2 depressive symptom ( β =-0.09); furthermore, T1 academic buoyancy negatively predicted T2 anxiety symptom( β =-0.10) ( P <0.05). Results from the latent variable cross lagged model of psychological problems (constructed from the three mental health variables) indicated that T1 psychological problems negatively predicted T2 academic buoyancy ( β =-0.09), while T1 academic buoyancy negatively predicted T2 psychological problems ( β =-0.09) ( P <0.05).
Conclusions
Longitudinal bidirectional relationships exist between mental health status and academic buoyancy in college students. Better mental health facilitates higher academic buoyancy.

Diabetic peripheral neuropathy(DPN) is a neurodegenerative disease of diabetes mellitus involving peripheral nervous system damage, which is characterized by axonal degenerative necrosis, Schwann cell apoptosis and demyelination of nerve myelin sheath as the main pathological features, this disease is highly prevalent and is a major cause of disability in diabetic patients. Currently, the pathogenesis of DPN may be related to oxidative stress, inflammatory response, metabolic abnormality, and microcirculation disorder. The treatment of DPN in modern medicine mainly starts from controlling blood glucose, nourishing nerves and improving microcirculation, which can only alleviate the clinical symptoms of patients, and it is difficult to fundamentally improve the pathological damage of peripheral nerves. Mitochondrial quality control refers to the physiological mechanisms that can maintain the morphology and functional homeostasis of mitochondria, including mitochondrial biogenesis, mitochondrial dynamics, mitochondrial oxidative stress and mitochondrial autophagy, and abnormal changes of which may cause damage to peripheral nerves. After reviewing the literature, it was found that traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) can improve the low level of mitochondrial biogenesis in DPN, maintain the balance of mitochondrial dynamics, inhibit mitochondrial oxidative stress and mitochondrial autophagy, and delay apoptosis of Schwann cells and neural axon damage, which has obvious effects on the treatment of DPN. With the deepening of research, mitochondrial quality control may become one of the potential targets for the research of new anti-DPN drugs, therefore, this paper summarized the research progress of TCM in treating DPN based on four aspects of mitochondrial quality control, with the aim of providing a theoretical research basis for the discovery of new drugs.

Objective:To investigate the surgical situations and perioperative outcome of pancreaticoduodenectomy in Jiangsu Province and the influencing factors for postoperative 90-day mortality.Methods:The retrospective case-control study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 2 886 patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy in 21 large tertiary hospitals of Jiangsu Quality Control Center for Pancreatic Diseases, including The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, from March 2021 to December 2022 were collected. There were 1 732 males and 1 154 females, aged 65(57,71)years. Under the framework of the Jiangsu Provincial Pancreatic Disease Quality Control Project, the Jiangsu Quality Control Center for Pancreatic Diseases adopted a multi-center registration research method to establish a provincial electronic database for pancrea-ticoduodenectomy. Observation indicators: (1) clinical characteristics; (2) intraoperative and post-operative conditions; (3) influencing factors for 90-day mortality after pancreaticoduodenectomy. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3) or M(IQR), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were expressed as absolute numbers or constituent ratio, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test, continuity correction chi-square test and Fisher exact probability. Maximal Youden index method was used to determine the cutoff value of continuous variables. Univariate analysis was performed using the corresponding statistical methods based on data types. Multivariate analysis was performed using the Logistic multiple regression model. Results:(1) Clinical characteristics. Of the 2 886 patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy, there were 1 175 and 1 711 cases in 2021 and 2022, respectively. Of the 21 hospitals, 8 hospitals had an average annual surgical volume of <36 cases for pancreaticoduodenectomy, 10 hospitals had an average annual surgical volume of 36-119 cases, and 3 hospitals had an average annual surgical volume of ≥120 cases. There were 2 584 cases performed pancreaticoduodenectomy in thirteen hospitals with an average annual surgical volume of ≥36 cases, accounting for 89.536%(2 584/2 886)of the total cases. There were 1 357 cases performed pancrea-ticoduodenectomy in three hospitals with an average annual surgical volume of ≥120 cases, accounting for 47.020%(1 357/2 886) of the total cases. (2) Intraoperative and postoperative conditions. Of the 2 886 patients, the surgical approach was open surgery in 2 397 cases, minimally invasive surgery in 488 cases, and it is unknown in 1 case. The pylorus was preserved in 871 cases, not preserved in 1 952 cases, and it is unknown in 63 cases. Combined organ resection was performed in 305 cases (including vascular resection in 209 cases), not combined organ resection in 2 579 cases, and it is unknown in 2 cases. The operation time of 2 885 patients was 290(115)minutes, the volume of intra-operative blood loss of 2 882 patients was 240(250)mL, and the intraoperative blood transfusion rate of 2 880 patients was 27.153%(782/2 880). Of the 2 886 patients, the invasive treatment rate was 11.342%(327/2 883), the unplanned Intensive Care Unit (ICU) treatment rate was 3.087%(89/2 883), the reoperation rate was 1.590%(45/2 830), the duration of postoperative hospital stay was 17(11)days, the hospitalization mortality rate was 0.798%(23/2 882), and the failure rate of rescue data in 2 083 cases with severe complications was 6.529%(19/291). There were 2 477 patients receiving postoperative 90-day follow-up, with the 90-day mortality of 2.705%(67/2477). The total incidence rate of complication in 2 886 patients was 58.997%(1 423/2 412). The incidence rate of severe complication was 13.970%(291/2 083). The comprehensive complication index was 8.7(22.6) in 2 078 patients. (3) Influencing factors for 90-day mortality after pancreaticoduodenectomy. Results of multivariate analysis showed that age ≥ 70 years, postoperative invasive treatment, and unplanned ICU treatment were independent risk factors for 90-day mortality after pancreaticoduodenectomy ( odds ratio=2.403, 2.609, 16.141, 95% confidence interval as 1.281-4.510, 1.298-5.244, 7.119-36.596, P<0.05). Average annual surgical volume ≥36 cases in the hospital was an independent protective factor for 90-day mortality after pancreaticoduodenectomy ( odds ratio=0.368, 95% confidence interval as 0.168-0.808, P<0.05). Conclusions:Pancreaticoduodenectomy in Jiangsu Province is highly con-centrated in some hospitals, with a high incidence of postoperative complications, and the risk of postoperative 90-day mortality is significant higher than that of hospitallization mortality. Age ≥ 70 years, postoperative invasive treatment, and unplanned ICU treatment are independent risk factors for 90-day motality after pancreaticoduodenectomy, and average annual surgical volume ≥36 cases in the hospital is an independent protective factor.

In recent years, the high prevalence of myopia has become a global public health concern.Understanding the mechanism will help to achieve precise prevention and treatment of myopia.Animal models are important tools for studying the pathogenesis and prevention strategies.Mice are commonly used in myopia research, because they are easy to breed, feed and genetically manipulate.However, their small eye size makes it difficult to accurately measure the changes in biological parameters such as refraction and axial length.In addition, the refractive developmental pattern of mice is opposite to that of humans.This article reviews the structural features of the mouse cornea, lens, vitreous body, retina and sclera, the pattern of refractive development, and the latest progress about the establishment and evaluation of murine myopia models to provide some hints and references for further research.

Purpose To detect the expression of PP1A and GSDME and the abundance of CD8+T lymphocytes in colorectal cancer,and to explore the correlation and clinical significance of PP1A and GSDME mediated pyroptosis.Methods GEPIA da-tabase was applied to analyze the mRNA expression of PP1A and GSDME in colorectal cancer and normal tissues.Western blot assay was used to detect the expression of PP1A in colorectal cancer and the corresponding normal mucosa.Immunohisto-chemistry was applied to detect the expression of PP1A and GS-DME and CD8+T lymphocytes abundance in 107 colorectal car-cinomas and normal mucosa adjacent to the carcinomas.Spearman rank correlation was used to analyze the correlation between PP1A,GSDME and CD8+T cells abundance.Results The GEPIA database search showed that mRNA expression of PP1A and GSDME in colorectal cancer differed compared to normal tissues(P<0.05).Western blot analysis showed that the relative expression of PP1A in colorectal cancer tissue was significantly higher than that in para-cancerous tissues(0.937 vs 0.643,P<0.001).Immunohistochemical results showed that the expression of PP1A in colorectal cancer tissues was signifi-cantly higher than that in normal mucosa(P<0.05).The ex-pression of GSDME in cancer tissue was closely correlated with patients'age,clinical stage and mismatch repair proteins(P<0.05),and the distribution of CD8+T cells in the cancer infil-tration front was significantly higher than that in the normal mu-cosa,and the distribution of CD8+T cells in the cancer was cor-related with pT stage,clinical stage and lymph node metastasis.Spearman correlation analysis showed that PP1A was negatively correlated with GSDME expression(r=-0.196,P<0.05).The overall survival PP1A-positive colorectal cancer patients was worse than that of PP1A-negative patients(P<0.05),and the prognosis of patients was correlated with the degree of differentia-tion,lymph node metastasis,pT stage and clinical stage.Posi-tive expression of PP1A,degree of differentiation,clinical stage,pT stage and lymph node metastasis are independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of colorectal cancer patients.Conclusion PP1A is highly expressed in colorectal cancer and negatively correlated with GSDME-mediated cell pyroptosis,and the differ-ential expression of both is closely related to the progression and prognosis of colorectal cancer,which can be used as a potential indicator for judgment of the prognosis of colorectal cancer pa-tients.The differential distribution of CD8+T cells may be asso-ciated with GSDME-mediated cell pyroptosis and tumor develop-ment.

Psychiatry Investigation 2024;21(12):1349-1359
Objective:
This study is the first to adopt a cultural and contextual coping model to examine the impact of forbearance coping on compliance and psychological health and unravel the psychosocial mediator and moderator among community-dwelling residents in the post-pandemic era in China.
Methods:
A multistage cluster convenience sampling strategy was conducted to recruit 402 community-dwelling residents of ten cities in Guangdong province who completed an online survey measuring forbearance coping, anti-pandemic compliance behaviours, family resilience, community resilience and psychological distress.
Results:
The study results showed an unexpected negative influence of forbearance coping on psychological distress. Nevertheless, forbearance coping facilitated personal compliance with coronavirus disease-2019 mitigation measures and improved psychological health. More importantly, meaning-making of adversity within families partially mediated the negative effect of forbearance on mental health only when respondents perceived higher levels of community resilience.
Conclusion
This study is the first to apply the cultural and contextual model of coping to Chinese individuals during a significant public health crisis. It expands the model by uncovering mechanisms like behavioural compliance and family meaning-making, and highlights the moderating role of community resilience. The findings emphasize the importance of building resilient communities and supporting mental health, providing evidence for future policy interventions and pandemic/disaster prevention measures in China.
