Objective To analyze the research status and trend of scarlet fever literature in China, and to provide reference for subsequent research. Methods Three major Chinese databases, CNKI, Wanfang, and VIP, as well as Web of Science English database, were used to search for literature related to scarlet fever from 2000 to 2023. Citespace6.2.R2 software was used to statistically analyze the number of publications, authors, institutions and journals, co-cited literature, keyword clustering, and other literature characteristics of the literature. Results From 2000 to 2023, a total of 1 011 Chinese literature were included in the three major Chinese databases. Since 2011, the number of publications had gradually increased, but in recent years, the number of publications had decreased. The organization with the most publications was the Shenyang Center for Disease Control and Prevention. The cluster analysis of key words mainly formed 9 cluster tags, and the high-frequency keywords mainly included epidemic characteristics, epidemiology, incidence rate, etc. A total of 84 English literature were included in the WOS database, with an overall upward trend in publication volume. The institution with the most publications was the China Center for Disease Control and Prevention, and the most frequently cited journal was “LANCET INFECT DIS”.《Resurgence of scarlet fever in China: a 13-year population-based surveillance study》 was the most cited journal. After keyword cluster analysis, 9 cluster labels were mainly formed, and the keywords were mainly outbreak,Hong Kong, and Group A streptococcus. Conclusion Compared with the English literature, which mainly focuses on spatiotemporal aggregation, etiology and strain resistance, Chinese literature focuses more on epidemic surveillance, clinical features and quality nursing.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2024;45(5):689-692
Objective:
To investigate the relationships among psychological resilience, parental control, and behavioral problems in middle school students, aiming to provide evidencebased recommendations for the prevention and intervention of behavioral issues in middle school students, as well as for the development of related policies.
Methods:
A stratified cluster sampling method was used to select 2 745 participants from three cities in Guizhou Province with different levels of economic development from August to December 2021. The Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL), Parental Control Questionnaire, and Psychological Resilience Questionnaire were administered to junior high school students and their parents. A network analysis method was employed to construct a network analysis model of factors influencing behavioral problems.
Results:
The detection rate of behavioral problems among junior high school students in Guizhou Province was 22.62%. The scores for psychological resilience (goal focus, emotional control, positive cognition, family support, and interpersonal assistance) and proactive inquiry in behavior control were higher in the group without behavioral problems than in the group with behavioral problems. Scores for psychological control (inducing guilt, with drawing affection, and asserting authority) were higher in the group with behavioral problems than in the group without behavioral problems, with statistically significant differences (t=9.80, 17.76, 6.21, 12.20, 13.18, 6.28, 11.58, 11.10, 10.74, P<0.05). The network model showed that among the same variable factors, the strongest connection weight was between inducing guilt and withdrawing affection, with a weight of 0.79. Between different variables, there were negative correlation between behavioral problems and psychological resilience (goal focus, emotional control, positive cognition, family support, interpersonal assistance) and behavior control (proactive inquiry, behavioral restraint) with correlation coefficients (r=-0.25, -0.42, -0.16, -0.31, -0.33, -0.17, -0.03, P<0.05), respectively. There were positive correlation between psychological control factors (inducing guilt, withdrawing affection, and asserting authority) and behavioral problems (r=0.29, 0.27, 0.27), and a negative correlation between these psychological control factors and psychological resilience factors (goal focus, emotional control, positive cognition, family support, interpersonal assistance)(r=-0.53--0.13)(P<0.05). The strongest connection weight was between withdrawing affection and family support, with a connection weight of -0.53. Family support was an important bridge symptom connecting the entire behavioral problem network model, with a high centrality.
Conclusions
The detection rate of behavioral problems among junior high school students in Guizhou Province is relatively high. Assisting adolescents in establishing a supportive family environment facilitates the cultivation of their psychological resilience, thereby mitigating the occurrence of behavioral problems.

Calciphylaxis is a rare ischemic necrotic skin disease characterized by skin ischemia, necrosis, and severe pain. Histopathological features include systemic arteriolar media calcification, intimal fibrosis, and thrombosis. While calciphylaxis is predominantly found in uremic patients, there have been a few case reports in non-uremic patients. This article presented a case of a non-uremic patient with primary hyperparathyroidism who underwent parathyroidectomy and subsequently developed severe calciphylaxis. The patient presented with symptoms of lower limb dermatalgia and ulceration, consistent with the classic clinical features of calciphylaxis. Following a systematic therapeutic approach in accordance with the "Zhongda Scheme", a complete remission of the condition was achieved. At the same time, the authors reviewed the relevant literature on the risk factors and possible mechanisms of non-uremic calciphylaxis based on this case.

Objective:This study aims to explore the survival advantages of different maintenance strategies for MCL.Methods:Clinical data of 693 newly diagnosed MCL patients in multi-centers admitted from April 1999 to December 2019 were collected. 309 cases received maintenance treatment. The characteristics of patients in different maintenance treatment groups were summarized and Kaplan-Meier survival and prognosis analysis were conducted.Results:The overall 3-year and 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) rates were (73.5±2.9) % and (53.6±4.3) %, respectively. The 3-year and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates were (94.2±1.5) % and (82.7±3.2) %, respectively. The clinical features of different maintenance treatment groups were generally consistent. The 3-year PFS rates of rituximab maintenance, lenalidomide maintenance, BTK inhibitor maintenance and dual-drug maintenance were (70.4±4.1) %, (69.1±7.6) %, (86.9±5.0) %, and (80.4±5.1) %, respectively. Corresponding 3-year OS rates were (92.9±2.4) %, (97.3±2.7) %, (97.9±2.1) %, and (95.3±2.7) %, respectively. There were no significant difference in different groups ( P=0.632, 0.313). Survival analysis identified the MCL International Prognostic Index (MIPI) high-risk group and achieving complete remission before maintenance treatment as independent risk factors for PFS. The MIPI high-risk group, high-dose cytarabine application, treatment lines, and early disease progression (POD24) emerged as independent risk factors for OS. Conclusion:Comparing the different maintenance strategies of MCL, the result showed that BTK inhibitors (BTKi) maintenance demonstrated preliminary advantages in survival. Meanwhile, high-risk group according to MIPI and incomplete remission before maintenance treatment were significant factors related to disease progression.

Objective:To explore the reproductive concerns of male thyroid cancer patients of childbearing age and analyze their influencing factors.Methods:From May 2022 to August 2023, convenience sampling was used to select 298 male thyroid cancer patients of childbearing age who visited two ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in Wuhan as research subjects. General Information Questionnaire, Reproductive Concerns after Cancer Scale-Male, Distress Disclosure Index, and 14-Item Resilience Scale were used for the survey. Single factor analysis and multiple linear hierarchical regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of reproductive concerns.Results:A total of 275 male thyroid cancer patients of childbearing age were included. The total scores of reproductive concerns, self-disclosure, and psychological resilience were (47.66±11.44), (37.22±5.80), and (62.45±8.73), respectively. The score of reproductive concerns was negatively correlated with the scores of self-disclosure and psychological resilience, and the difference was statistically significant ( r=-0.636, -0.656; P<0.01). Hierarchical regression analysis showed that educational level, monthly family income, number of children, fertility intention, 131I treatment, self-disclosure, and psychological resilience were the influencing factors of reproductive concerns in male thyroid cancer patients of childbearing age ( P<0.05). After controlling for demographic and sociological data, self-disclosure and psychological resilience explained 8.6% of reproductive concerns among male thyroid cancer patients of childbearing age. Conclusions:Male thyroid cancer patients of childbearing age have a moderate to high level of reproductive concerns. Medical and nursing staff should develop systematic and effective intervention strategies based on influencing factors to reduce reproductive concerns among male thyroid cancer patients of childbearing age.

Objective:To screen for preoperative frailty risk factors in elderly patients with spinal degenerative diseases and construct a risk prediction model.Methods:From September 2021 to August 2022, convenience sampling was used to select 324 elderly patients who underwent spinal surgery in the Department of Neurosurgery at Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University as research subjects. The patients were surveyed using the General Information Questionnaire, Barthel Index, Nutritional Risk Screening 2002, Mini-mental State Examination, Geriatric Depression Scale-15, Generalized Anxiety Disorde-7, Athens Insomnia Scale, Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), and Modified Frailty Index. Binary Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of preoperative frailty in elderly patients with spinal degenerative diseases and establish a risk prediction model. Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve was used to assess the discriminative power of the model, and Hosmer-Lemeshow test was used to evaluate the goodness of fit of the model.Results:A total of 324 questionnaires were distributed, and 308 valid questionnaires were collected, with a valid response rate of 95.06% (308/324). Among 308 elderly patients with degenerative spinal diseases, 56 patients experienced preoperative frailty. Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that falls within one year, CCI, serum albumin, activities of daily living, and self-rated health status were the influencing factors for preoperative frailty in elderly patients with spinal degenerative diseases ( P<0.05). The area under the ROC curve of the prediction model was 0.851, with a sensitivity of 0.786 and a specificity of 0.778. Hosmer Lemeshow test indicated that the predictive model had a good fit (χ 2=3.764, P=0.709) . Conclusions:Falls within one year, CCI, serum albumin, activities of daily living, and self-rated health status are influencing factors for preoperative frailty in elderly patients with spinal degenerative diseases. The risk prediction model constructed can identify preoperative frailty early and has good predictive performance, which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective:To design a Visual TFT-based SF 6 gas measurement system. Methods:Based on Visual TFT, an SF 6 gas measurement system is designed, including system hardware design and system software design. The system hardware mainly includes gas sensors, a Visual TFT display, a signal processing circuit, and a power supply circuit. The system software mainly includes data acquisition, data display, SF 6 monitoring system, and alarm program. The Visual TFT display is controlled by Keil code to display other parameters such as gas flow rate, concentration, and waveform, and calculate the error (? E). The measurement system extracts the gas flow rate and concentration data through the waveform graph and gets the change curve of functional residual gas volume (FRC) data. Results:The proposed Visual TFT-based SF 6 gas measurement system can detect SF 6 with an arithmetic mean value of concentration ? E of 8.906%, which is less than 10% of full scale and meets the design requirements. Conclusions:The Visual TFT-based SF 6 gas measurement system can monitor the concentration of SF 6 gas in real-time, which helps to control the release of SF 6 gas and reduce the impact of inert gas emission on the human body under test. At the same time, the system has an intuitive display interface and alarm function, which helps healthcare workers diagnose and treat lung and respiratory diseases more conveniently and quickly, and improves the efficiency and safety of healthcare workers.

Objective:To explore the sense of coherence in the main caregivers of cancer patients, analyze its influencing factors, and explore the relationship between sense of coherence and care burden.Methods:From March 2018 to March 2019, convenience sampling method was used to select the main caregivers of 229 cancer patients admitted to two ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in Harbin as the research object. The questionnaire survey was conducted with the General Information Questionnaire, Sense of Coherence Scale (SOC-13) and the Family Caregiver Burden Scale. Statistical analysis was carried out with t test, single factor analysis of variance, Pearson correlation as well as multiple linear regression. A total of 237 questionnaires were issued and 229 valid questionnaires were returned, with an effective recovery rate of 96.62%. Results:The score of sense of coherence in main caregivers of cancer patients was (55.67±9.23) , which was at a low level. The results of univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in the score of sense of coherence in main caregivers of cancer patients with different genders of caregivers, occupational status of caregivers, medical cost burden status, patient self-care level, and cumulative care time ( P<0.05) . The results of Pearson correlation analysis showed that the score of sense of coherence in main caregivers of cancer patients was positively correlated with the care burden score of the terminal cancer ( r=0.398, P<0.01) . The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that the burden of medical expenses, the degree of self-care ability of patients, the cumulative care time, and the care burden of end-of-cancer (physical and mental burden, economic burden, life burden) were the main influencing factors of the sense of coherence in the main caregivers of cancer patients ( P<0.05) , which explained 32.2% variation of the sense of coherence. Conclusions:The main caregivers of cancer patients have a low level of sense of coherence and are affected by many factors. Clinical medical and nursing staff can carry out targeted interventions from patients, caregivers, society and other aspects to enhance the sense of coherence of the main caregivers, thereby improving the quality of life of patients and their main caregivers.
