Objective:
To analyze the influence of stress and psychological resilience on the dietary behavior of middle school students so as to privide a basis for the development of policies and interventions aimed at improving middle school students dietary behavior.
Methods:
A total of 8 874 middle school students in Shanghai were surveyed using stratified cluster random sampling method from November 2019 to January 2020. The questionnaire included general information, dietary behavior, Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) and Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC-10). Factor analysis was used to analyze the dietary behavior model. Logistic regression model was used to explore the correlation between stress, psychological resilience and dietary behavior in adolescents. Besides, a structural equation model was established to analyze the mediating effect of psychological resilience on stress and dietary behavior.
Results:
The total score of psychological resilience among middle school students was (27.99±9.83), and the total score of stress was (25.56±7.06). Factor analysis categorized dietary behavior into two types: the high energy dietary behavior and balanced dietary behavior. High energy dietary behavior exhibited statistically significant differences across genders and schooling stage ( χ 2=41.37, 204.03), while balanced dietary behavior showed statistically significant differences across schooling stage and socioeconomic status ( χ 2=130.23, 96.53) (all P <0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that adolescents with moderate and high stress levels had an increased risks of high energy dietary behavior ( OR=1.25, 95%CI =1.12-1.39; OR=1.58, 95% CI = 1.39-1.79) and a reduced likelihood of reduced balanced dietary behavior ( OR=0.73, 95%CI =0.65-0.81; OR=0.53, 95%CI =0.47-0.60); adolescents with high levels of psychological resilience had a decreased risk of highenergy dietary behavior ( OR= 0.73 , 95%CI =0.65-0.83), and those with moderate and high resilience levels showed improved balanced dietary behavior ( OR= 1.45 , 95%CI =1.29-1.62; OR=2.50, 95%CI =2.21-2.84) (all P <0.01). The mediating effect of psychological resilience between stress and high energy dietary behavior or balanced dietary behavior accounted for 15.61% and 56.10% of the total effects, respectively.
Conclusions
Stress and psychological resilience are the influencing factors of dietary behavior in middle school students. Psychological resilience have a partial mediating effect between stress and high energy dietary behavior or balanced dietary behavior.

Objective:
To explore the effects of parenting style on emotional and behavioral problems (EBPs) of preschool children and to provide theoretical reference for promoting children s physical and mental health.
Methods:
In October-November 2021, a stratified cluster random sampling method was adopted to select 3 575 preschool children aged 3-6 years from 12 kindergartens in Hefei. Data on parenting styles and children s EBPs were collected through electronic questionnaires. Binary Logistic regression model was used to explore the effects of parenting styles on children s EBPs.
Results:
The detection rates of emotional symptoms, conduct problems, hyperactivity, peer interaction problems, and prosocial behavior problems were 15.5% ( n =554), 23.2% ( n =830), 22.4% ( n =802), 38.2% ( n =1 367), and 29.5% ( n =1 055) in preschool children, respectively. Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for covariates such as child s age, sex, and preterm birth, a high authoritative parenting style reduced the risk of EBPs in children ( OR =0.29-0.78), while a high authoritarian ( OR =1.36-2.15) and high permissive ( OR =1.36-1.68) parenting style in mothers increased the risk of EBPs in children (all P <0.05). Further stratified analysis indicated that among children with fathers exhibiting high authoritative, high authoritarian, or high permissive parenting styles, a high authoritative parenting style in mothers reduced the risk of peer interaction problems and prosocial behavior problems ( OR =0.51, 0.30 ; 0.44, 0.23; 0.51, 0.29, all P <0.05). Among children with fathers exhibiting a high authoritative parenting style, a high authoritarian parenting style in mothers increased the risk of emotional problems ( OR =2.59), and both high authoritarian and high permissive parenting styles in mothers increased the risk of conduct problems ( OR =3.25, 2.09) and hyperactivity problems ( OR =2.35, 2.87) (all P <0.05). Among children with fathers exhibiting high authoritarian or high permissive parenting styles, a high authoritarian parenting style in mothers increased the risk of EBPs ( OR =1.65-2.71, 1.62-2.52, all P <0.05).
Conclusion
Parenting style is an important factor affecting EBPs of preschool children, and appropriate parenting style is beneficial for children s psychological development.

ObjectiveTo analyze the clinical characteristics and the use of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) therapy in cancer patients with COVID-19, and to provide reference for making TCM prevention and treatment strategies and determining diagnosis and treatment priorities for patients with malignant tumors in the COVID-19 epidemic. MethodsThe medical records of 225 malignant tumor cases with COVID-19 who were admitted to 7 national research centers from January 1st to 20th, 2023 were retrospectively collected, and the main symptoms and duration after infection, nucleic acid negative conversion time, use of TCM therapy, and changes in adverse reactions after resuming anti-tumor treatment were analyzed. ResultsA total of 222 malignant tumor patients with COVID-19 were included in the analysis, involving 205 mild cases and 17 moderate cases. The top four most frequently reported clinical symptoms were fever (165 cases), expectoration or dry cough (99 cases), decreased appetite (95 cases) and fatigue (85 cases), of which 40 expectoration or dry cough cases , 37 fatigue cases and 29 decreased appetite cases lasted for more than 14 days. One hundred and five patients with nucleic acid detection report had a median negative conversion time of 14 days. The nucleic acid negative conversion time was significantly longer in patients with lung cancer compared to those with digestive system malignant tumors, and in those with myelosuppression than those without (P<0.01). During the infection period, 47.30% (105/222) of the patients used Chinese patent medicine, and 21.17% (47/222) were treated with herbal decoctions. The use of TCM in patients during the prevention and rehabilitation period, was 1.80%(4/222) and 7.21%(16/222), respectively. Fifty-five patients resumed anti-tumor treatment after nucleic acid negative conversion, and received TCM simultaneously. Observed adverse reactions, including gastrointestinal reactions, bone marrow suppression, and neurotoxicity, were all grade 1 to 2, and no new adverse events occurred during follow-up. ConclusionCertain malignant tumor patients with COVID-19 had prolonged symptoms and nucleic acid negative conversion time Rational use of TCM can help to promote the rehabilitation of the patients and ensure the smooth process of anti-tumor treatment after infection.

Objective:To investigate differences in clinical characteristics between bullous pemphigoid (BP) patients with stroke and those without, and their relationship with the prognosis of stroke.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on medical records of 330 BP inpatients in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from September 2012 to April 2020. These patients were divided into BP + stroke (ST) group and BP - ST group according to whether they were accompanied by stroke, and clinical manifestations and relevant laboratory examination results were compared between the two groups. According to the stroke outcome score assessed by modified Rankin Scale (mRS), patients in the BP + ST group were further divided into good-prognosis ST group (mRS ≤ 2 points) and poor-prognosis ST group (mRS > 2 points), and subgroup analysis was conducted. Correlations between measurement data (such as age, disease course and laboratory examination results) and mRS scores were analyzed.Results:In the BP - ST group (256 cases), 151 were males and 105 were females, and their age ranged from 19 to 92 (66.8 ± 13.6) years; in the BP + ST group (74 cases), 45 were males and 29 were females, and their age ranged from 48 to 92 (74.6 ± 9.6) years; Compared with the BP - ST group, the BP + ST group showed older age ( t = -5.57, P < 0.001), shorter disease course of BP ( Z = -3.07, P = 0.002), and higher anti-BP180 IgG antibody levels (215.0 [157.2, 283.1] U/ml vs. 155.0 [63.9, 279.8] U/ml; Z = -2.12, P = 0.034). The distribution of skin lesions significantly differed between the two groups ( χ2 = 10.51, P = 0.015), and the BP + ST group showed a significantly lower proportion of patients with generalized lesions ( P<0.05), but a higher proportion of patients with lesions on the limbs ( P<0.05). Subgroup analysis showed significant differences in the patients′ age, BP course, lesion distribution and anti-BP180 IgG antibody levels among the good-prognosis ST group, poor-prognosis ST group and BP - ST group ( F = 10.83, P<0.001; Z = 17.24, P<0.001; χ2 = 15.57, P = 0.026; Z = 6.29, P = 0.043, respectively). There was no significant difference in the age between the good-prognosis ST group and poor-prognosis ST group (adjusted P = 1.000), but the patients were significantly older in the two above groups than in the BP - ST group (adjusted P = 0.001, 0.007, respectively) ; the poor-prognosis ST group showed significantly shorter BP courses (adjusted P = 0.016, < 0.001, respectively) and a higher proportion of patients with lesions on the limbs (both P < 0.05) compared with the good-prognosis ST group and BP - ST group, and significantly higher serum anti-BP180 IgG antibody levels compared with the BP - ST group (226.2 [163.6, 285.8] U/ml vs. 155.0 [63.9, 279.8] U/ml; adjusted P = 0.037). There were no significant differences in the gender distribution, lesional morphology, percentages and counts of peripheral blood eosinophils, serum total IgE levels, and anti-BP230 IgG antibody levels between the BP + ST group and BP - ST group (all P > 0.05), or among the good-prognosis ST group, poor-prognosis ST group and BP - ST group (all P > 0.05). Correlation analysis in the BP + ST group showed a significantly negative correlation between the BP course and mRS scores ( r = -0.33, P = 0.004), and a significantly positive correlation between the anti-BP180 IgG antibody levels and mRS scores ( r = 0.34, P = 0.032) . Conclusion:There were differences in the patients′ age, BP course, lesion distribution, and anti-BP180 IgG antibody levels between the BP patients with stroke and those without, and the differences were more obvious between the poor-prognosis ST group and BP - ST group.

To report the first case of chronic disseminated paracoccidioidomycosis in China. A 49-year-old male patient presented with papules and nodules of the skin for 1 year, and papules and ulcers on the oral mucosa for 2 months. Skin examination showed the edema of the left foot, multiple crusting ulcers on the sole of the left foot, ulcers with a granular base in the interdigital regions between the third and fourth toes as well as fourth and fifth toes of the left foot, accompanied by punctate hemorrhage and exudation; there were multiple papules, nodules, and plaques on the dorsum and medial side of the left foot and the left knee, with ulcers and crusts in the center; 2 papules were observed on the left wrist, and 1 papule on the left upper lip with a crusted surface; red plaques with ulcers and punctate hemorrhage were observed on the gingival mucosa, buccal mucosa, labial mucosa, and palate, and the lesions mainly occurred on the left side. Ultrasonography of superficial lymph nodes showed bilateral cervical and supraclavicular lymph node enlargement, which was more obvious on the left side. Computed tomography of the chest and abdomen showed diffuse miliary nodular shadows, and cordlike, cloudy flocculent and nodular high-density shadows in both lungs, as well as obvious thickening of the left adrenal gland in the abdomen. Yeast cells were observed by immunofluorescent staining of biopsy tissues from the oral mucosa and left lower limb. Histopathological examination of biopsy tissues from the oral mucosa and left lower limb showed granulomatous inflammation, and refractive double-membrane yeast cells could be observed inside or outside the multinucleated giant cells, without or with a single bud or multiple buds; periodic acid-Schiff staining and hexamine silver staining of the above biopsy tissues were positive. Fungal culture of the left lower limb lesion in Sabouraud dextrose agar medium at 25℃ and 37℃ both yielded fungal hyphae. Metagenomics sequencing of the oral mucosal tissue and alveolar lavage fluid indicated the infection with Paracoccidioides brasiliensis. The diagnosis of chronic disseminated paracoccidioidomycosis was confirmed. After 1-month oral treatment with itraconazole capsules at a dose of 400 mg/d, the lesions on the skin and oral mucosa markedly improved, and computed tomography imaging of the lung and left adrenal gland also showed obvious improvement. The dose of itraconazole was reduced to 200 mg/d after 3 months. The patient′s condition further improved during a 10-month follow-up.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical effect of modified Yinqiaosan combined with antibiotics in the treatment of acute tonsillitis in children with wind-heat invading lung syndrome. MethodA total of 96 children with acute tonsillitis of wind-heat invading the lung syndrome were randomized into control group and observation group. The control group was treated with routine antibiotics, and the observation group was treated with modified Yinqiaosan and antibiotics for 7 days. The scores of major symptoms (sore throat, erythmatous throat, dysphagia, erythmatous tonsils and suppuration) and minor symptoms (fever, cough, stool, and tongue) and the levels of inflammation- and immune-related indexes [white blood cell (WBC), C-reactive protein (CRP), serum amyloid A (SAA), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and interferon-γ (IFN-γ)] were compared between two groups. ResultThe data of 92 children were statistically analyzed: 45 in the observation group and 47 cases in the control group. The total clinical effective rate of the observation group was 95.56%, as compared with the 93.62% of the control group. After treatment, the scores of major symptoms in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05), and the scores of cough, defecation, and tongue in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The levels of inflammation- and immune-related indexes after treatment in the observation group were lower than those before treatment (P<0.05). Except IFN-γ, the levels of the inflammation- and immune-related indexes in the control group were lower than those before treatment (P<0.05). After treatment, the levels of SAA and IL-6 in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). ConclusionModified Yinqiaosan combined with antibiotics can significantly reduce the expression of SAA and IL-6 in the treatment of children with acute tonsillitis, thereby alleviating inflammation and clinical symptoms and improving prognosis.

China is a country with a high incidence of esophageal cancer. Most patients are already in the locally advanced stage when first diagnosed. Preoperative neoadjuvant therapy followed by surgery has become the standard treatment mode for them. Closely related to prognosis, the evaluation of tumor response is essential. Response evaluation criteria in solid tumors is the gold standard to evaluate tumor response, but the lesions must meet the measurement standards. Tumor regression grading (TRG) systems are designed to classify regressive changes after neoadjuvant treatment based on histopathological results to reveal prognostic information. Concentrating on pathologic assessment of esophageal cancer following neoadjuvant therapy, this article reviews histopathological changes, commonly used TRG systems and current debate.
