BackgroundThe issue of depression among adolescents is becoming increasingly serious, seriously endangering their healthy development. The issue of sleep disturbances in adolescents with depressive disorder is gradually receiving attention, but there is currently a lack of research on the relationship between sleep quality and suicide risk in this patient population. ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between suicide risk and sleep quality in adolescents with depressive disorders, and analyze the influencing factors of suicide risk, so as to provide references for clinical intervention. MethodsA total of 101 adolescents patients who met the diagnostic criteria for depressive disorder in the International Classification of Diseases, 10th edition (ICD-10) and were hospitalized at Hefei Fourth People's Hospital from June 2020 to February 2023 were selected. The patients were evaluated using the Nurses' Global Assessment of Suicide Risk (NGASR) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). According to the NGASR score, patients were divided into severe suicide risk group (n=35) and non-severe suicide risk group (n=66). Pearson correlation analysis was used to examine the correlation between sleep quality and suicide risk in adolescents with depression. Multiple Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of severe suicide risk in adolescent patients with depression. ResultsStatistically significant differences were found between the two groups in terms of academic pressure, peer relationship and family relationship (t=3.942, 4.378, 6.748, P<0.05). Moreover, there was a statistically significant difference in PSQI score between two groups (t=7.398, P<0.05). There was also a statistically significant difference in sleep quality between the two groups (χ2=4.986, P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed a positive correlation between total PSQI score and NGASR score (r=0.698, P<0.05). Severe depression (OR=1.628, 95% CI: 1.079~2.457), high academic pressure (OR=1.118, 95% CI: 1.018~1.228) and poor sleep quality (OR=1.158, 95% CI: 1.033~1.297) were identified as risk factors of severe suicide risk, while good relationships with classmates (OR=0.908, 95% CI: 0.826~0.998) and family (OR=0.904, 95% CI: 0.823~0.993) were protective factors. ConclusionSleep quality in adolescents with depression is negatively correlated with suicide risk and poor sleep quality may be a risk factor for severe suicide risk.

The umbrella trial has received increasing attention in the design of clinical trials for oncology drugs in recent years. This trial design categorizes a single disease into multiple sub-types based on predictive biomarkers or other predictive factors, and simultaneously evaluates the efficacy of multiple targeted therapies. When compared with the traditional drug development model of phase Ⅰ, phaseⅡ, and phase Ⅲ randomized controlled trials, umbrella trials are a more scientifically rigorous trial design that can speed up drug evaluation to address the conflict between numerous untested drugs and diseases with a lack of effective treatment options. This article will focus on the concept, main characteristics, eligibility criteria, design and statistical considerations, ethical considerations, and future directions of umbrella trials, with the aim of providing methodological guidance for the design of clinical trials for oncology drugs.

Autologous ozonized blood transfusion(AOBT) is a therapy of re-transfusion of 100-200 mL of autologous blood after shaking and agitation with appropriate amount of oxygen-ozone in vitro. The oxidation of blood through the strong oxidation of ozone can enhance the non-specific immune response of the body, regulate the internal environment and promote health. This therapy has been increasingly applied in clinical practice, while no unified standard for the operation process in terms of ozone concentration, treatment frequency and treatment course had been established. This operation process of AOBT is primarily explored in order to standardize the operation process and ensure its safety and efficacy.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness, safety, economy, innovation, suitability and accessibility of recombinant Mycobacterium tuberculosis fusion protein (EC), and to provide evidence for selecting skin detection methods for tuberculosis infection diagnosis and auxiliary diagnosis of tuberculosis. METHODS The effectiveness and safety of EC compared with purified protein derivative of tuberculin (TB-PPD) were analyzed by the method of systematic review. Cost minimization analysis, cost-effectiveness analysis and cost-utility analysis were used to evaluate the short-term economy of EC compared with TB-PPD, and cost-utility analysis was used to evaluate the long-term economy. The evaluation dimensions of innovation, suitability and accessibility were determined by systematic review and improved Delphi expert consultation, and the comprehensive score of EC and TB-PPD in each dimension were calculated by the weight of each indicator. RESULTS The scores of effectiveness, safety, economy, innovation and suitability of EC were all higher than those of TB-PPD. The affordability scores of the two drugs were consistent, while the availability score of EC was lower than those of TB-PPD. After considering dimensions and index weight, the scores of effectiveness, safety, economy, innovation, suitability, accessibility and the comprehensive score of EC were all higher than those of TB-PPD. CONCLUSIONS Compared with TB-PPD, EC performs better in all dimensions of effectiveness, safety, economy, innovation, suitability and accessibility. However, it is worth noting that EC should further improve its availability in the dimension of accessibility.

Objective:To explore the current situation of nursing human caring in hospital wards and analyze its influencing factors, so as to facilitate the development of nursing human caring practice.Methods:From July to November 2022, a total of 107 hospitals were surveyed through stratified convenience sampling method, and 4 072 ward nursing managers were recruited to finish the general information questionnaire and the ward nursing human caring status questionnaire. The general information included the region, class and type of the hospital, etc. The ward nursing human caring status questionnaire included 38 items in 5 dimensions of nursing human caring system and process, humanistic quality and training of nursing staff, humanistic environment and facilities, human caring procedures and measures, and human caring quality evaluation and improvement, with a full score of 190 points. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the general data, independent samples t-test, ANOVA and correlation analysis were used to analyze the factors influencing the current status of nursing human caring in the ward, while multiple linear regression analysis was used to conduct a multivariate analysis. Results:The score of nursing human caring in hospital wards was 156.91±27.78. Whether the hospital had carried out nursing human caring pilot(demonstration) wards, whether the ward had previously been a hospital nursing human caring pilot(demonstration) nursing unit, the type of ward, and whether nursing managers had participated in human caring training were the influencing factors of the implication of nursing humanistic caring in wards( P<0.05). Conclusions:The practice of nursing human caring in hospital wards is at a good level, but needs to be further strengthened. Nursing managers should take systematically strategies to promote the development of nursing human caring practice.

The synchronous abnormal discharge of neurons leads to epileptic seizures.However, in addition to neurons, microglia, as the main immune cells in the brain, plays an important role in the development and maintenance of neural circuits.Microglia is involved in early epileptic seizures, which can be mediated by increasing inflammatory cytokines and chemokines.Microglia can regulate the abnormal neurogenesis after epileptic seizures, promote the death of neurons after seizures, and cause neurodegeneration.Moreover, it can also affect synaptic pruning after seizures, eliminate synapses by phagocytosis or stripping, destroy the balance between synaptic excitation and inhibition, and aggravate seizures.Microglia plays an important role in the development of epilepsy.However, whether microglia participates in the occurrence of epilepsy still needs to be further studied.
