Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of "Internet plus" continuous intervention on psychological status and nursing satisfaction of patients with depression after hospital discharge, so as to provide the reference for reducing the recurrence risk of patients with depression and improving the quality of life. Methods: From January to December 2024, patients with mild to moderate depression who were hospitalized in a tertiary grade-a mental health specialized hospital in Wenzhou City and met the discharge criteria were selected as the research objects. The patients were divided into the control group and the intervention group according to a ratio of 1∶1 by the random number table method. Hamilton Depression Scale, Hamilton Anxiety Scale, and Nursing Satisfaction Questionnaire were used to evaluate depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and nursing satisfaction before and after intervention. Covariance analysis was used to compare the differences between the two groups before and after the intervention. Results: A total of 62 patients with mild to moderate depression were enrolled, with 31 patients in the intervention group and 31 patients in the control group. Before the intervention, there were no statistically significant differences in gender, age, course of disease, educational level, marital status, depression symptoms score, anxiety symptoms score, and nursing satisfaction score between the two groups (all P>0.05). After the intervention, the scores of depression and anxiety symptoms in the intervention group decreased by 8.87 and 5.01 points, respectively, compared with those before the intervention, and the scores of depression and anxiety symptoms in the control group decreased by 2.52 and 1.16 points, respectively (all P<0.05). After the intervention, the scores of depression and anxiety symptoms in the intervention group decreased more than those in the control group (both P<0.05). The nursing satisfaction score of the intervention group increased by 6.57 points on average compared with that before the intervention, and that of the control group increased by 4.23 points on average (both P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the increase of nursing satisfaction scores between the two groups before and after intervention (P>0.05). Conclusion The "Internet plus" continuous intervention has a good effect on improving the depressive symptoms and anxiety symptoms of patients with depression after haspital discharge, which can consolidate the treatment effect and improve nursing satisfaction.

Objective: To construct a prediction model of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in middle-aged and elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), so as to provide basis for early screening and prevention of T2DM complicated with NAFLD. Methods: Patients aged 45 years and above and diagnosed with T2DM in Karamay Hospital of People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region in 2021 were collected as the study subjects. The data of general demographic characteristics and biochemical test results were collected. The patients were randomly divided into training group (n=3 241) and validation group (n=1 389) according to the ratio of 7∶3. LASSO regression and multivariable logistic regression model were used to select predictive factors. The nomograph model for prediction of NAFLD risk in T2DM patients was established. The predictive value of the model was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC), adjusted curve and decision clinical analysis. Results: Totally 4 630 T2DM cases were included, including 1 279 cases (27.62%) complicated with NAFLD. LASSO regression and multivariable logistic regression analysis identified gender, age, diastolic blood pressure, body mass index, alanine transaminase, triglycerides, low density lipoprotein cholesterol and platelet count as risk prediction factors for NAFLD in T2DM patients. The area under the ROC curve was 0.823 (95%CI: 0.814-0.832) for the training group and 0.809 (95%CI: 0.799-0.818) for the validation group, and Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed a good fitting effect (P>0.05). Decision curve analysis showed higher net clinical benefit of using the predictive model to predict NAFLD risk when the risk threshold probability was 0.27 to 0.85. Conclusion The nomogram model established has a good predictive value for the risk of NAFLD in T2DM patients aged 45 years and above.

Objective To investigate the effect of bronchoscopic balloon dilation treatment of different intervals on the tracheal intubation-induced subglottic stenosis in children. Methods Children with tracheal intubation-induced subglottic cicatricial stenosis were selected as the research objects. Among the 36 children with pure balloon dilation treatment, 20 cases were enrolled in the observation group and 16 cases were enrolled in the control group. In the observation group, electronic bronchoscopy was performed at 3 days after the first-time balloon dilation treatment, and those with grade 2 or higher stenosis received the second-time balloon dilation treatment. The follow-up treatment principle was as follows. If there was obvious retraction compared with the previous time and the stenosis was grade 2 or higher, the balloon dilation treatment would be performed again after an interval of 3 days; if there was no obvious retraction, the evaluation would be performed again after an interval of 2 weeks until there was no obvious retraction in the stenosis site under endoscopy for 3 times in 6 consecutive weeks, and the degree of stenosis was less than 25%, and then the electronic bronchoscopy evaluation would be stopped. In the control group, electronic bronchoscopy was performed 7 days after the first-time balloon dilation treatment, and those with grade 2 or higher stenosis received the second-time balloon dilation treatment. The follow-up treatment principle was as follows. If there was obvious retraction compared with the previous time and the stenosis was grade 2 or higher, the balloon dilation treatment would be performed again after an interval of 7 days; the evaluation method for those without obvious retraction was the same as the observation group. The follow-up duration ranged from 6 to 9 months. Results There was no significant difference in the total number of treatments and outcomes between the two groups (P>0.05). The treatment duration of the observation group was significantly shorter than that of the control group (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in intraoperative complications such as bleeding, oxygen saturation decrease, heart rate decrease, and blood pressure decrease during anesthesia between the two groups (P>0.05). There were no significant differences in postoperative fever, aggravated laryngeal stridor, and dyspnea between the two groups (P>0.05). There were no significant differences in dyspnea, activity tolerance, and the need for long-term oxygen therapy between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Most of the tracheal intubation-induced subglottic cicatricial stenosis in children has a good medium- and long-term effect through pure balloon dilation treatment. Shortening the interval of pure balloon dilation to 3 days can shorten the total treatment duration, alleviate the psychological burden of parents, but does not increase their economic burden. There are no significant differences in intraoperative and postoperative complications, outcomes, and long-term follow-up compared with the original interval of 5 to 7 days.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of children aged two years old and above with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection in pediatric intensive care unit (PICU).Methods:Children who had RSV infection admitted to PICU at Children′s Hospital of Zhengzhou University from March 2019 to December 2021 were divided into older age group(≥two years old) and younger age group(0.05); In younger age group, there were 132(64.8%) cases of fever and 125(64.8%) cases of wheezing; In older age group, there were 31(93.9%) cases of fever and 13(39.4%) cases of wheezing; the incidence of fever was higher in older age group than that in younger age group( χ2=9.147, P<0.05), and the incidence of wheezing was lower than that in younger age group( χ2=7.631, P<0.05), and the differences were statistically significant.(2) There were 15 (45.5%) cases of simple infection and 18 (54.5%) cases of mixed infection in older age group, and the P/F was significantly different between children with simple infection and those with mixed infection ( P<0.05); there were 14 (42.4%) cases of combined underlying diseases and 19 (57.6%) cases without underlying diseases, and the length of stay in PICU was different between children with combined underlying diseases and those without underlying diseases ( P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in mechanical ventilation or total length of stay ( P>0.05). Conclusion:RSV infection in children aged two years old and above in PICU occurres mostly between two and six years of age, with a relatively low incidence of wheezing and common fever; RSV infection alone may have a greater impact on oxygenation, and combined underlying diseases can affect the length of stay in PICU.

Transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) is an acute and fatal complication of blood product transfusion.TRALI is a syndrome, which diagnosed by the basis of clinical signs.The pathogenesis of TRALI is unclear and the hypothesis of two-hit model is generally accepted.At present, there is no specific treatment for TRALI.Treatment of the patient with TRALI is mainly supportive.The rational transfusions can avoid the occurrence of TRALI.The incidence of TRALI has been decreased by making the mainly measure of avoiding transfusions of plasma from multiparous female donors.

Crossmodal information processing in sensory cortices has been reported in sparsely distributed neurons under normal conditions and can undergo experience- or activity-induced plasticity. Given the potential role in brain function as indicated by previous reports, crossmodal connectivity in the sensory cortex needs to be further explored. Using perforated whole-cell recording in anesthetized adult rats, we found that almost all neurons recorded in the primary somatosensory, auditory, and visual cortices exhibited significant membrane-potential responses to crossmodal stimulation, as recorded when brain activity states were pharmacologically down-regulated in light anesthesia. These crossmodal cortical responses were excitatory and subthreshold, and further seemed to be relayed primarily by the sensory thalamus, but not the sensory cortex, of the stimulated modality. Our experiments indicate a sensory cortical presence of widespread excitatory crossmodal inputs, which might play roles in brain functions involving crossmodal information processing or plasticity.

Objective:To correlate creatine kinase (CK) and creatine kinase- isoenzyme MB (CK-MB) with different states of bipolar disorder in patients.Methods:A total of 206 patients with bipolar disorder who received treatment in The 7 th People's Hospital of Wenzhou, China between January 2018 and June 2019 were included in the patient group. A total of 369 healthy controls who concurrently received physical examination were included in the control group. CK and CK-MB levels were detected in all participants. The Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS), Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD)-7 scale, the Bech-Rafaelsen Melancholy Scale (BRMS), and modified version of the Overt Aggression Scale (MOAS) were used to evaluate the mental symptoms, depression, mania and aggression of patients. The CK and CK-MB levels were compared between patients with different states of bipolar disorder. Results:In the control group, CK and CK-MB levels in males were 112.5 (94.5, 156.5) U/L and 17.0 (15.0, 20.0) U/L, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in females [73.0 (61.0, 86.3) U/L, 15.0 (13.0, 18.0) U/L, Z = -9.732, -3.535, both P < 0.001). In the patient group, CK and CK-MB levels in males were 129.0 (80.0, 233.5) U/L, 12.0 (10.0, 17.0) U/L, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in females [73.0 (55.0, 94.0) U/L, 13.5 (11.0, 17.0) U/L, Z = -9.510, -4.746, both P < 0.001]. There was no significant difference in CK level in males between the control and patient groups ( Z = -1.003, P = 0.316), but significant difference in CK-MB level in males was observed between the two groups ( Z = -6.570, P < 0.001). There were significant differences in CK and CK-MB levels in females between the control and patient groups ( Z = -2.535, -9.707, P = 0.011, P < 0.001). In the patient group, CK level in the manic, depressive, and symptom-alleviated states was 132.0 (78.0, 297.0) U/L, 85.0 (56.0, 145.0) U/L, 128.0 (110.0, 165.0) U/L respectively in males, and it was 73.0 (49.0, 122.3) U/L, 51.0 (45.0, 67.0) U/L and 84.5 (61.0, 193.0) U/L, respectively in females. There was significant difference in CK level in males and females between different states of bipolar disorder ( χ2 = 9.019, 16.720, P = 0.011, P < 0.001). In males, CK level was correlated with the BPRS total score, BRMS total score, and MOAS total score in the manic state, as well as the BPRS total score in the symptom-alleviated state ( r = 0.282, 0.286, 0.236, 0.574). In females, CK level was correlated with the MOAS total score in the manic state ( r = 0.260). In males, CK-MB level was correlated with the BRMS total score in the manic and depressive states ( r = 0.186 and 0.496). In females, CK-MB level was correlated with the MOAS total score and the BRMS total score in the manic state ( r = 0.155, 0.572). Conclusion:CK and CK-MB levels are correlated with bipolar disorder in different states and they are of certain clinical significance and provide innovative insights into the diagnosis of bipolar disorder.

Objective:To explore the mediating effects of self-control and rumination between neuroticism and insomnia in college students.Methods:A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 767 college students from a university in Sichuan province with Chinese big five personality inventory-15, insomnia severity index, ruminative responses scale, and self-control scale.Results:The prevalence of insomnia was 36.6% among college students.The scores of neuroticism (9.63±3.41), rumination (22.27±5.44) and ISI (6.61±4.28) were positively correlated with each other ( r=0.281-0.389, P<0.01), while each of them was negatively correlated ( r=-0.453--0.194, all P<0.01) with self-control (60.71±9.41). Analysis of mediating effects revealed that neuroticism not only directly affected insomnia, but also indirectly affected insomnia through the mediating effects of rumination and self-control respectively. Conclusion:Self-control and rumination have mediating effects between neuroticism and insomnia in college students.

Objective To examine the effects of participating in Balint group ( PBG) for reducing occupational burnout among primary care physicians (PCPs). Methods In this randomized controlled trial, 240 PCPs were randomly assigned to PBG (n=70) and control group (n=240) in propotion of 1 ∶ 2. Sub-jects of PBG received Balint group intervention for one year,while control group received natural observation. Maslach Burnout Inventory ( MBI) was used to assess the severity of occupational burnout. Results At baseline all three subscales of MBI had no significant difference between PBG and cotrol group(P>0. 05). After the intervention,PBG had statistically lower subscale scores in emotional exhaustion ((20. 1±8. 3) vs (22. 6±8. 7),t=1. 993,P=0. 048) and depersonalization (( 6. 8± 4. 9) vs ( 10. 8 ± 5. 2),t=5. 355,P<0. 001) than the control group, while had statistically higher score in personal accomplishment subscale ((38. 3±7. 5) vs (34. 6±7. 7),t=3. 311,P=0. 001) than the control group. Conclusions PBG is effective in reducing occupational burnout among PCPs.

Objective To investigate the secretory capacity and apoptosis of interleukin ( IL)-21 induced normal B cells by co-culture with serum from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods Serum from twenty new-onset SLE patients and 20 healthy donors were collected .CD1+9 B cells from the normal controls were co-cultured with serum from SLE patients in the presence or absence of IL-21-R-FC(4 μg/ml).Supernatant IgG and IgM concentration were measured by immunoturbidimetric assay on day 5.Supernatant anti-dsDNA level was determined by ELISA .The percentage of apoptotic cells was detected by flow cytometer.Results IgG,IgM and anti-dsDNA levels in normal B cells with SLE serum were significantly higher than those in the serum of SLE patients alone [ ( 5.84 ±1.79 ) g/L vs ( 4.25 ± 1.48)g/L,P=0.000;(0.46 ±0.21)g/L vs (0.43 ±0.21)g/L,P=0.003;(127.76 ±70.24)IU/ml vs (115.15 ±63.88) IU/ml,P=0.014 respectively].However, no significant differences were found in the group of normal B cells with non-homologous serum from normal controls (P>0.05).Supernatant IgG, IgM and anti-dsDNA levels in normal B cells with SLE serum significantly decreased while IL-21R-fusion protein was added [(5.26 ±1.62)g/L vs (5.84 ±1.79)g/L, P=0.006;(0.42 ±0.20)g/L vs (0.46 ±0.21)g/L, P=0.002;( 118.00 ±69.62 ) IU/ml vs ( 127.76 ±70.24 ) IU/ml, P =0.012 respectively ] .The apoptotic rate of B cells with SLE serum was significantly higher than that with normal serum [ ( 47.88 ± 12.65)%vs (38.86 ±10.32)%,P =0.004].But adding IL-21R-fusion conversed the apoptotic rates [(42.08 ±12.52)%vs (47.88 ±12.65)%,P=0.001].Conclusions SLE serum could induce normal B cells to form immunoglobulin secreting cells and producing autoantibodies , or apoptosis in pathological conditions.IL-21 might be considered as a potential therapeutic target of SLE .
