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 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.

Cardiovascular disease(CVD)is the leading cause of death in humans and has received widespread attention.The clinical indicators for predicting the risk of CVD occurrence and development are expensive and difficult to popularize in grassroots areas.Triglyceride glucose(TyG)index,as an alternative biomarker for insulin resistance,can predict the risk of CVD.The clinical TyG index is easy to obtain and is gradually receiving attention.This article reviews the research progress on the correlation between TyG index and CVD risk.

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.

Objective:To explore the application value and treatment effects of multiple free anterolateral perforator flaps of calf for reconstruction of multiple digital wounds in single hand.Methods:From August 2020 to March 2022, 12 patients with soft tissue defects in 35 digits were treated in Department of Hand Surgery, Suzhou Ruihua Orthopaedic Hospital. Ten patients were male and 2 were female, aged 25 to 58 years old. Of the patients, 1 had soft tissue defects in 5 digits, 3 in 4 digits, 2 in 3 digits and 6 in 2 digits. The size of defects was from 1.2 cm ×1.2 cm to 7.0 cm×3.5 cm after debridement. The vascular perforators discovered from intraoperative explorations were found originating from the superficial peroneal artery in 24 flaps, from the peroneal artery in 7 flaps and from the anterior tibial artery in 4 flaps. During surgery, the perforator artery and accompanying veins of the flaps were anastomosed with the proper digital artery and palmar or dorsal subcutaneous veins in the recipient site, respectively. The size of the flaps was from 1.5 cm×1.5 cm to 7.5 cm×4.0 cm. No nerve was affected in the surgery. The wound at donor sites in the calf was sutured directly. Regular postoperative follow-ups were conducted at outpatient clinics. The comprehensive evaluation scale of flap was used to assess the conditions of the donor and recipient sites.Results:In this study, all 35 soft tissue defects of digits in 12 patients were reconstructed by the anterolateral perforator flaps of calf. All the 35 flaps survived after surgery, with a 100% of survival rate. The patients were instructed to carry out early functional training after surgery. Follow-up lasted 6 to 24 months, with an average of 11 months. Twenty-five flaps were found in slightly swollen, and further flap thinning surgery were carried out 3 months after the primary surgery, while the rest of the flaps had good appearance and texture. At 6 months after surgery, all flaps recovered a partial deep and shallow sensory and sense of touch. All wound at donor sites in calf had one-stage healing without dysfunction. The comprehensive evaluation scale was excellent in 28 flaps and good in 7 flaps. The excellent and good rate was 100%.Conclusion:It is an effective method to use multiple free anterolateral perforator flaps of calf to reconstruct multiple digit defects in single hand. The flaps can be conveniently harvested and the multiple digital defects in single hand can be reconstructed in primary surgery with small damages to the donor sites and together with satisfactory clinical outcomes.

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.

Objective:To explore the effects of tensile force on vascular lumen formation in three-dimensional printed tissue.Methods:The experimental research method was used. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were extracted from discarded umbilical cord tissue of 3 healthy women (aged 22 to 35 years) who gave birth in the Department of Gynaecology and Obstetrics of Suzhou Ruihua Orthopaedic Hospital from September 2020 to May 2021. Human skin fibroblasts (HSFs) were extracted from discarded normal skin tissue of 10 male patients (aged 20 to 45 years) who underwent wound repair in the Department of Hand Surgery of Suzhou Ruihua Orthopaedic Hospital from September 2020 to September 2022. After identification of the two kinds of cells, the 4 th to 6 th passage of cells were taken for the follow-up experiments. HUVECs and HSFs were used as seed cells, and polycaprolactone, gelatin, hyaluronic acid, and fibrin were used as scaffold materials, and the three-dimensional printed vascularized tissue was created by three-dimensional bioprinting technology. The printed tissue with polycaprolactone scaffold of 6 and 10 mm spacing, and without polycaprolactone scaffold were set as 6 mm spacing polycaprolactone group, 10 mm spacing polycaprolactone group, and non-polycaprolactone group, respectively. After 4 days of culture, the printed tissue in 10 mm spacing polycaprolactone group was selected to detect the cell survival by cell viability detection kit, and the cell survival rate was calculated. After 14 days of culture, the printed tissue in three groups were taken, and the shape change of tissue was observed by naked eyes; immunofluorescence staining was performed to observe the arrangement of filamentous actin, and lumen diameter, total length, and number of branches of vessel in the tissue. The tissue with micro-spring structure in the above-mentioned three groups was designed, printed, and cultured for 9 days, and the tensile force applied in the printed tissue was measured according to the force-displacement curve. The number of samples was all 3 in the above experiments. Data were statistically analyzed with one-way analysis of variance and Tukey test. Results:After 4 days of culture, the cell survival rate in printed tissue in 10 mm spacing polycaprolactone group was (91.3±2.2)%. After 14 days of culture, the shape change of printed tissue in non-polycaprolactone group was not obvious, while the shape changes of printed tissue in 6 mm spacing polycaprolactone group and 10 mm spacing polycaprolactone group were obvious. After 14 days of culture, the arrangement of filamentous actin in the printed tissue in non-polycaprolactone group had no specific direction, while the arrangement of filamentous actin in the printed tissue in 6 mm spacing polycaprolactone group and 10 mm spacing polycaprolactone group had a specific direction. After 14 days of culture, The vascular lumen diameters of the printed tissue in 6 mm spacing polycaprolactone group and 10 mm spacing polycaprolactone group were (6.0±1.3) and (10.8±1.3) μm, respectively, which were significantly larger than 0 μm in non-polycaprolactone group ( P<0.05), and the vascular lumen diameter of printed tissue in 10 mm spacing polycaprolactone group was significantly larger than that in 6 mm spacing polycaprolactone group ( P<0.05); the total length and number of branches of blood vessel in the printed tissue in 6 mm spacing polycaprolactone group and 10 mm spacing polycaprolactone group were significantly shorter or less than those in non-polycaprolactone group ( P<0.05), and the total length and number of branches of blood vessel in the printed tissue in 10 mm spacing polycaprolactone group were significantly shorter or less than those in 6 mm spacing polycaprolactone group. After 9 days of culture, the tensile forces applied in the printed tissue in 6 mm spacing polycaprolactone group and 10 mm spacing polycaprolactone group were (2 340±59) and (4 284±538) μN, respectively, which were significantly higher than 0 μN in non-polycaprolactone group ( P<0.05), and the tensile force applied in the printed tissue in 10 mm spacing polycaprolactone group was significantly higher than that in 6 mm spacing polycaprolactone group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The three-dimensional printed scaffold structure can exert different tensile force in the printed tissue, and the vascular lumen diameter of the printed tissue can be regulated by adjusting the tensile force.

A case of limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2S (LGMD2S) caused by maternal uniparental disomy on chromosome 4 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Chinese Medicine in March 2020 was reported.The female child, aged 9 months and 4 days, presented with developmental delay after bacterial meningitis in early infancy, decreased muscle strength in infancy and increased muscle and liver enzymes.Family genetic analysis showed that the child′s monodiploid in chromosome 4 was maternal origin, and the homozygous c. 1066T > G (p.Y356D) of TRAPPC11 gene may had pathogenic variation, which came from the child′s mother.The final diagnosis of LGMD2S was made according to the clinical manifestations and gene test results.LGMD2S is a rare autosomal recessive disease caused by the pathogenic variation of TRAPPC11 gene.Its clinical characteristics include proximal limb weakness, motor and intellectual retardation, seizures, motor disorders, elevated serum creatine kinase and muscular dystrophy like pathological changes in children.

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.
