Objective:To study the life characteristics and related risk factors of patients with depression in Shandong Province.Methods:Based on the 2015 mental epidemiological survey database in Shandong Province,a total of 832 patients with depression,807 high-risk individuals with depression,and 819 low-risk individuals were diagnosed according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,Fourth Edition(DSM-Ⅳ)and the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-Ⅳ-TR Axis I Disorders,Research Version(SCID-I/P).In 2020,SCID-I/P was used for re diagnosis,and the General Health Questionnaire(GHQ-12),Simple Quality of Life question-naire,Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI),Childhood Trauma Questionnaire(CTQ),Social Support Rating Scale(SSRS),Global Pain Scale(GPS),Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MoCA),Simplified Coping Style Question-naire(SCSQ)were used for evaluation.Compare changes in the quality of life of depression patients and construct a risk factor model.Results:Patients with depression had lower scores on the simple quality of life questionnaire at baseline and at retest after 5 years than those in the high-and low-risk groups,those in remission of depression had higher scores on the simple quality of life questionnaire at baseline and at retest after 5 years than those in non-re-mission,and those with new-onset disorder in the high-and low-risk groups had lower scores on the simple quality of life questionnaire at baseline and at retest after 5 years than those with no-onset disorder(Ps＜0.001).Depres-sion diagnosis and PSQI scale scores at baseline negatively predicted at retest after 5 years(β=-0.06,-0.15),while coping style tendencies at baseline positively predicted(β=0.06).The simple quality of life questionnaire at baseline negatively predicted depression diagnosis at retest after 5 years,GHQ-12 scores at retest after 5 years,and PSQI scale scores at retest after 5 years(β=-0.11,-0.17,-0.09),while the simple quality of life question-naire at baseline positively predicted coping style tendencies at retest after 5 years(β=0.13).Depression diagnosis at retest after 5 years,GHQ-12 scores at retest after 5 years,PSQI scale scores at retest after 5 years,coping style tendencies at retest after 5 years,SSRS scale scores,CTQ scale scores,GPS scale scores,and the simple quality of life questionnaire at baseline all influenced the simple quality of life questionnaire at retest after 5 years through ei-ther direct or indirect pathways.Conclusion:It suggest that the quality of life is lower in patients with depression than in the general population.Depression diagnosis,sleep,mental health,pain,social support,childhood trauma and coping are direct and indirect risk factors affecting life.

Objective:To evaluate the role of silent information regulator-1 (SIRT1)/nucleotide-binding domain (NOD)-like receptor protein-3 (NLRP3) signaling pathway in sevoflurane postconditioning-induced attenuation of oxygen-glucose deprivation and restoration (OGD/R) injury in mouse hippocampal neuronal cell line (HT22) cells.Methods:The HT22 cells were seeded in a culture plate (96-well plate, 100 μl/well; 6-well plate, 2 ml/well) at the density of 5×10 4 cells/ml or in a culture dish (6 cm in diameter) and then divided into 4 groups ( n=24 each) using a random number table method: control group (Control group), OGD/R group, sevoflurane postconditioning group (SPC group), and SIRT1 small interfering RNA group (si-SIRT 1 group). In Control group, cells were cultured at 37 ℃ in normal culture atmosphere. In OGD/R group, the culture medium was replaced with glucose-free serum-free culture medium, and cells were exposed to 95% N 2+ 5% CO 2 for 4 h in an incubator at 37 ℃, and then the glucose-free serum-free culture medium was replaced with the primary culture medium, and cells were cultured for 24 h at 37 ℃ in normal culture atmosphere. In SPC group, the glucose-free serum-free culture medium was replaced with the primary cell culture medium after 4-h oxygen and glucose deprivation, the cells were put into the hypoxia incubator chamber which was filled with 2% sevoflurane immediately after start of reoxygenation, then the chamber was placed in an incubator and the cells were cultured for 1 h at 37 ℃ in normal culture atmosphere, and finally the cells were removed from the chamber and cultured for 23 h at 37 ℃ in normal culture atmosphere. In si-SIRT1 group, SIRT1 small interfering RNA 150 pmol was added at 24 h before surgery, cells were then incubated, and the other procedures were the same as those previously described in group SPC. The cell survival rate was determined using MTT assay. TUNEL assay was used to detect cell apoptosis, and the apoptosis rate was calculated. The expression of SIRT1, NLRP3, IL-1β and IL-18 mRNA was determined using polymerase chain reaction. The expression of SIRT1, NLRP3, interleukin-1beta (IL-1β) and IL-18 was detected using Western blot. Results:Compared with Control group, the cell survival rate was significantly decreased, the apoptosis rate was increased, the expression of SIRT1 protein and mRNA was down-regulated, and the expression of NLRP3, IL-1β and IL-18 protein and mRNA was up-regulated in OGD/R group ( P<0.05). Compared with OGD/R group, the cell survival rate was significantly increased, the apoptosis rate was decreased, the expression of SIRT1 protein and mRNA was up-regulated, and the expression of NLRP3, IL-1β and IL-18 protein and mRNA was down-regulated in SPC group ( P<0.05). Compared with SPC group, the cell survival rate was significantly decreased, the apoptosis rate was increased, the expression of SIRT1 protein and mRNA was down-regulated, and the expression of NLRP3, IL-1β and IL-18 protein and mRNA was up-regulated in si-SIRT1 group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Activation of SIRT1-NLRP3 signaling pathway is involved in sevoflurane postconditioning-induced attenuation of OGD/R injury in HT22 cells.

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between methyltransferase-like 3(METTL3)-mediated RNA N6-Methyladenosine (m6A) methylation modification and silent information regulator factor 1 (SIRT1) during sevoflurane post-conditioning-induced mitigation of cognitive impairments in a mouse model of hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation(HSR).Methods:Forty clean-grade healthy male C57BL/6 mice, aged 8-10 weeks, with a body weight ranging from 22-26 g, were assigned into 5 groups ( n=8 each) using a random number table method: sham operation group, HSR group, sevoflurane post-conditioning + HSR group (SP+ HSR group), over-expression of METTL3 gene rAAV + sevoflurane post-conditioning + HSR group (METTL3+ SP+ HSR group), and over-expression of METTL3 gene rAAV negative control + sevoflurane post-conditioning + HSR group (NC+ SP+ HSR group). The HSR model was established by withdrawing 40% of the total blood volume from mice through the right carotid artery within 30 min, followed by reinfusion of the withdrawn blood over 30 min 1 h later. The SP+ HSR group underwent HSR modeling first and then inhaled sevoflurane (end-tidal concentration 2.4%) for 30 min starting from the time point immediately after blood transfusion. The Sham group and HSR group inhaled a mixture of 70% O 2 and 30% CO 2 for 30 min at the corresponding time points. In METTL3+ SP+ HSR group and NC+ SP+ HSR group, the corresponding virus 450 nl was injected into bilateral hippocampus at 4 weeks before establishing the model.Morris water maze and novel object recognition tests were conducted at 72 h after developing the model to assess the learning and memory abilities. After the end of behavioral tests, the expression of METTL3 and SIRT1 in hippocampal tissues was detected using Western blot, the expression of SIRT1 mRNA was measured using qRT-PCR, and the methylation of RNA m6A was detected using Dot blot. Results:Compared to Sham group, the escape latency was significantly prolonged at 1-6 days, the time spent in the target quadrant was shortened, the number of crossing the original platform was decreased, the novel object recognition index was decreased, the expression of METTL3 was up-regulated, the expression of SIRT1 protein and mRNA was down-regulated, and the methylation of RNA m6A was increased in HSR group( P<0.05). Compared to HSR group, the escape latency was significantly shortened at 1-6 days, the time spent in the target quadrant was prolonged, the number of crossing the original platform was increased, the novel object recognition index was increased, the expression of METTL3 was up-regulated, the expression of SIRT1 protein and mRNA was down-regulated, and the methylation of RNA m6A was increased, the novel object recognition index was increased, the expression of METTL3 was down-regulated, the expression of SIRT1 protein and mRNA was up-regulated, and the methylation of RNA m6A was decreased in SP+ HSR group( P<0.05). Compared to SP+ HSR group, the escape latency was significantly prolonged at 2-6 days, the time spent in the target quadrant was shortened, the number of crossing the original platform was decreased, the novel object recognition index was decreased, the expression of METTL3 was up-regulated, the expression of SIRT1 protein and mRNA was down-regulated, and the methylation of RNA m6A was increased in METTL3+ SP+ HSR group( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the aforementioned indicators in NC+ SP+ HSR group ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The mechanism by which sevoflurane post-conditioning alleviates cognitive dysfunction is associated with down-regulation of METTL3 expression, reduction of RNA m6A methylation, and up-regulation of SIRT1 expression in HSR mice.

Glucose monitoring is an important part of medical care in diabetes mellitus, which not only helps assess glycemic control and treatment safety, but also assists with treatment adjustment. With the development of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), the use of CGM has increased rapidly. With the wealth of glucose data produced by CGM, new metrics are greatly needed to optimally evaluate glucose status and guide the treatment. One of the parameters that CGM provides, time in range (TIR), has been recognized as a key metric by the international consensus. Before the adoption of TIR in clinical practice, several issues including the minimum length of CGM use, the setting of the target range, and individualized TIR goals are summarized. Additionally, we discussed the mounting evidence supporting the association between TIR and diabetes-related outcomes. As a novel glucose metric, it is of interest to compare TIR with other conventional glucose markers such as glycated hemoglobin A1c. It is anticipated that the use of TIR may provide further information on the quality of glucose control and lead to improved diabetes management.

Objective Using the information - motivation - behavior model (IMB) to intervene with the alcohol dependence patients and provide a new strategy for implementing health education. Methods Eighty-nine patients with alcohol dependence, who clinically recovered or improved after the discharge, were randomly divided into a research group and a control group. Both groups received routine health education, rehabilitation guidance and a follow-up call. The research group implemented additional IMB health education. The implementation effect on alcohol dependence scale (ADS), Michigan alcoholism screening test (MAST), and alcohol dependence prevention and treatment knowledge (self-designed questionnaire) of the two groups before and after intervention was analyzed. Results The relapse rate of the research group was lower than that the control group, which was statistically significant (P＜0.05). MAST scale and ADS scale in the research group were lower than those in the control group within 3 months and 6 months after the discharge, which was significant (P values of both scales ＜0.05). After the 6-month follow-up, the knowledge of alcohol dependence patients in the research group and their families was significantly higher than that in the control group (P＜0.05). Conclusion IMB health education implementation for alcohol dependence patients significantly reduced the relapse rate, decreased physical and psychological dependence, and improved the ability of patients to prevent and control alcohol dependence.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics of patients complicated with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) and papillary thyroid micro-carcinoma (PTMC) and risk factors for central lymph node metastasis (CLNM) by analyzing the clinical data.Methods:Clinical data of 770 patients with PTMC admitted to Head and Neck Surgery Center of Sichuan Cancer Hospital from May. 2015 to Nov. 2017 were retrospectively analyzed, including 250 HT-PTMC patients (observation group) and 520 non-HT-PTMC patients (control group) . There were 197 males and 573 females, with a male to female ratio of 1.00:2.91. Into observation indexes included patient’s age, gender, serum thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) , thyroglobulin antibody (TG-Ab) , thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPO-Ab) , number of foci, diameter of foci, calcification of foci, location of foci (with or without extra-glandular invasion) , number of nodules (no matter benign or malignant) , and lymph node metastasis in central and lateral cervical regions. SPSS 22.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Normally distributed data were expressed ± s. The difference between observation group and control group was compared by chi-square test of single factor analysis. The risk factors of CLNM of the observation group were analyzed with multivariate Logistic regression, the difference was statistically significant if P<0.05. Results:There were statistically significant differences between the observation group and the control group in age ( P=0.006) , gender ( P<0.001) , TSH ( P<0.001) , TG-Ab ( P<0.001) , TPO-Ab ( P<0.001) , number of nodules ( P=0.016) , and central lymph node ( P<0.001) . Compared with non-HT-PTMC group, HT-PTMC group had a higher proportion of women under 55 years old, and both TG-Ab and TPO-Ab had higher positive rates. Patients with HT-PTMC were more likely to show polynodule changes, but their central lymph node metastasis rate was lower than that of the non-HT-PTMC group. Single-factor analysis showed that the number of cancer foci, calcification of cancer foci, and location of cancer foci were significantly correlated with the CLNM of HT-PTMC patients (all P<0.001) . Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that multiple cancer foci ( P<0.001) , invasion and capsule ( P<0.001) , and cancer foci with calcification ( P=0.005) were independent risk factors for CLNM. Conclusions:HT-PTMC is more common in women under 55 years of age, and most of them show multiple nodules in bilateral glandular lobes, often accompanied by elevated serum TSH, TG-Ab and TPO-Ab levels. Meanwhile, the lymph node metastasis rate of HT-PTMC is relatively low, and the prognosis may be relatively good. In HT-PTMC, the risk of multiple carcinoma foci, cancer foci with calcification, cancer foci invasion and the occurrence of CLNM is higher. Preventive central lymph node dissection helps to reduce the occurrence of postoperative cervical lymph node recurrence.

Objective:This paper introduces four surgical methods and effects of one-stage repair for defect in nasal wing because of tumor resection and other reasons.Methods:Totally 41 cases of nasal wing defects caused by various reasons admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from June 2015 to June 2018 were analyzed retrospectively, including 22 male patients and 19 female patients, age ranged from 15 to 93 years, with an average of 45 years. All patients were treated and repaired with the nasolabial horn-shaped perforated pedicle flaps(20 cases), the lateral nasal artery horn-shaped perforated pedicle flaps(10 cases), the nasolabial sulcus island flaps based on nasal basal perforator vessel(6 cases) and the supralabial-nasolabial horn-shaped perforated pedicle flaps(5 cases).Results:All the flaps that were used in 41 patients were transplanted successfully, size ranged from 0.5 cm×1.5 cm-4.0 cm×4.0 cm.

Objective: To explore the advantages and clinical efficacy of free chimeric perforator flap based on the descending branch of circumflex femoral artery applied to tongue reconstruction after advanced tongue cancer resection. Methods: From October 2013 to December 2018, 57 cases received tongue and oral base reconstruction surgeries using the descending branch of circumflex femoral artery chimeric perforator flap, including 39 males and 18 females, ranged from 20 to 76 years old. And all cases were with stage T3 and T4 tongue cancers, including 35 cases of squamous cell carcinoma, 7 cases of low differentiation cancer, 5 cases of oncosarcoma, and 10 cases of adenoid cystic carcinoma. The tongue was reconstructed by using perforator flap and muscle flap to fill the dead space at the oral floor. The artery anastomoses with the superior thyroid artery or facial artery in the receiving area, and the vein anastomoses with the internal jugular vein in the receiving area. The shape, function and local complications of the reconstructed tongue were observed after operation. Results: Of 57 cases, only one case had partial necrosis of flap, while other 56 cases with chimeric perforator flap survived. Postoperative gastric tube and tracheal cannula were removed in all patients, no cases with oral fistula. All donor sites were sutured in one stage. Postoperative radiotherapy was performed in 41 of the patients. All patients were followed up for 3 to 60 months (average of 20.7 months), with satisfactory esthetic and functional results in reconstructed tongues. Only linear scars were left in the donor areas of the legs, and no lower limb dysfunction was observed. Conclusions The descending branch of circumflex femoral artery chimeric perforator flap can used for repairing simultaneously the defects of both tongue and oral base. It is helpful to avoid the occurrence of oral fistula and to provide the reconstructed tongue with a good function. It is a good choice to use the descending branch of circumflex femoral artery chimeric perforator flap for tongue reconstruction after resection of advanced tongue cancer resection.

Objective To investigate the status and analyze its influencing factors of nursing care satisfaction among bedridden patients and provide basis for improving nursing service strategy.Methods By means of cross-sectional survey, a total of 25 hospitals (6 ClassⅢ hospitals, 11 ClassⅡ hospitals and 8 ClassⅠ hospitals) in 6 provinces and cities of eastern, central and western China were selected according to the regional distribution. A total of 23985 patients hospitalized in the Intensive Care Unit, Neurosurgery Department, Department of Orthopedics and other departments in the hospital from November 2015 to March 2016 were continuously investigated. A self-designed questionnaire was used to investigate the satisfaction degree of bedridden patients. A total of 21171 patients completed the investigation. SAS 9.4 was used for statistical analysis. The single factor analysis usedt test and variance analysis, and the multiple regression model was established by entry method to identify the factors affecting nursing care satisfaction among bedridden patients.Results The overall score of nursing satisfaction was (38.04±3.40), and 98.14％ bedridden patients were satisfied with nursing care. The results of single factor analysis showed that the difference of age, gender, education degree, payment way, hospital ranking, with or without complications, bed resting duration and hospitalization duration were statistically significant (P<0.001). The results of multi factor analysis showed that the factors affecting the satisfaction of the patients were age, gender, education degree, hospitalization duration, bed resting duration and hospital ranking (P<0.001).Conclusions The nursing care satisfaction of bedridden patients is relatively good in the whole of China. Basic nursing care and health education should be further strengthened in order to meet patient's nursing needs and improve the ability of self health management.
