ObjectiveTo investigate the mental health status of the front-line anti-epidemic medical staff during the COVID-19 outbreak， so as to provide references for the targeted psychological intervention and improvement of mental health status. MethodsA total of 162 front-line medical staff who worked in Lanzhou Heavy Particles Hospital of Gansu Province from October to December 2021 were were enrolled， and assessed using self-designed general information questionnaire， Self-rating Anxiety Scale （SAS） and Self-rating Depression Scale （SDS）. ResultsA total of 144 medical staff completed the valid questionnaire survey， and 17 （11.81%） and 19 （13.19%） cases were found to have anxiety and depression， respectively. The detection rate of anxiety yielded statistical difference among medical staff with different anti-epidemic working hours （χ²=10.602， P<0.01）， and the detection rate of depression demonstrated statistical differences among medical staff with different occupations， family history of depression and anti-epidemic working hours （χ²=5.486， 4.039， 7.526， P<0.05）. ConclusionDuring the COVID-19 outbreak， front-line medical staff develop varying degrees of anxiety and depression. Furthermore， the detection rate of anxiety is relatively high among the staff with long anti-epidemic working hours， and the detection rate of depression is relatively high among the doctors， the staff with family history of depression and long anti-epidemic working hours.

Objective: This epidemiology survey is intended to assess the periodontal health conditions of 12 to 15-year-old adolescents and the associated factors in Shenzhen. Methods: The study utilized a multistage stratified cluster method and recruited 5 509 middle school students aged 12 to 15. Gingival bleeding and calculus were conducted and a self-reported questionnaire was administered. Additional periodontal pocket depth and attachment loss examination were performed in the 15-year-age group. Periodontal conditions and the associated factors were analyzed by t-test, Chi-square method and Logistic regression. Results: The prevalence of gingival bleeding and calculus among adolescents was 43.95% and 44.25%, and the prevalence of periodontal pockets ≤3 mm was 0.57%. No periodontal pockets ≥6 mm or attachment loss ≥4 mm were detected. Gender, family income and frequency of teeth brushing were significantly associated with calculus detection (P＜0.05). The use of fluoride had an significant effect on gingival bleeding detection and calculus detection (χ 2=9.70，6.16，P＜0.05). Conclusion The periodontal health condition among 12-15 years old adolescents in Shenzhen is generally better than the national level. Adolescents living in high-economic districts and females had better periodontal health condition. The government can promote health education in schools and popularize the use of fluoride to improve the periodontal health condition among adolescents.

Coactosin-like protein 1 (Cotl1), a member of the actin-depolymerizing factor (ADF)/cofilin family, was first purified from a soluble fraction of Dictyostelium discoideum cells. Neuronal migration requires cytoskeletal remodeling and actin regulation. Although Cotl1 strongly binds to F-actin, the role of Cotl1 in neuronal migration remains undescribed. In this study, we revealed that Cotl1 overexpression impaired migration of both early- and late-born neurons during mouse corticogenesis. Moreover, Cotl1 overexpression delayed, rather than blocked, neuronal migration in late-born neurons. Cotl1 expression disturbed the morphology of migrating neurons, lengthening the leading processes. This study is the first to investigate the function of Cotl1, and the results indicate that Cotl1 is involved in the regulation of neuronal migration and morphogenesis.

Objective To evaluate the prognostic value of the extracapsular spread (ECS) of regional lymph nodes in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) based on magnetic resonance imaging.Methods A retrospective review was performed for 477 previously untreated patients with NPC who were treated in Yuebei People′s Hospital from January 2009 to December 2013.Univariate and multivariate survival analyses were performed to identify the prognostic value of ECS in NPC.Results There were 216 patients with ECS and 261 patients without ECS,and the median survival of the two groups of patients was 38.5 months and 39.0 months,respectively.The 3-year overall survival (OS),progression-free survival (PFS),local recurrence-free survival (LRFS),and distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) rates of the patients with ECS versus those without ECS were 81.9% versus 90.7%,65.8% versus 85.0%,87.8% versus 95.8%,and 80.3% versus 92.9%,respectively (all P=0.000).The univariate analysis showed that N stage and ECS were important prognostic factors for OS,PFS,LRFS,and DMFS in NPC patients (P=0.000-0.004),and T stage and TNM stage were associated with OS,PFS,and DMFS (all P=0.000).The multivariate analysis using the Cox regression model showed that T stage was an independent prognostic factor for the survival of NPC patients,and ECS was an important prognostic factor for PFS,LRFS,and DMFS.Conclusion ECS of regional lymph nodes is a risk factor for local recurrence or distant metastasis in patients with NPC.

Objective To evaluate the effect of CYP3A4*1G genetic polymorphism on the pharmacokinetics of levobupivacaine after epidural administration.Methods One hundred and eleven American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 30-60 yr,weighing 56-79 kg,scheduled for elective lower extremity surgery under epidural anesthesia,were enrolled in the study.Blood sampies were collected from the central vein before anesthesia for detection of CYP3A4*1G genotypes by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism.The patients were divided into 3 groups according to the CYP3A4*1G genotypes:wild hemozygote (CYP3A4*1/*1) group (w/w group),mutation heterozygote (CYP3A4*1/*1G) group (m/w group) and mutation hemozygote (CYP3A4*1G/*1G) group (m/m group).An epidural catheter was placed at the L1,2 interspace,and 0.75％ levobupivacaine 1.8 mg/kg was injected.Thirty-four patients were randomly selected,and blood samples from the central vein were collected at0,10,20,30,45,60,90,120,180,240,360,480,840 and 1 440 min after administration for determination of plasma concentrations of levobupivacaine by high-performance liquid chromatography.The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated.Results There were 42 cases in group w/w,59 cases in group m/w,and 10 cases in group m/m.The frequency of CYP3A4*1G variant allele was 35.6％ in the 111 patients underwent lower extremity surgery.There were no significant differences between the three groups in the plasma concentrations of levobupivacaine at different time points,elimination halflife,clearance,distribution volume,elimination rate constant,peak plasma concentration,time to peak plasma concentration or area under the concentration-time curve (P＞0.05).Conclusion CYP3A4*1G genetic polymorphism is not one of the genetic factors contributing to the individual variation in the pharmacokinetics of levobupivacaine after epidural administration.

Objective To explore the effectiveness of KAP-HBM-TTM(KHT)-based health management on patients with chronic diseases in community. Method From April 2014 to June 2015, 834 patients with chronic diseases living in Desheng Community were randomly sampled and assigned to the intervention group (n=423, and the control group n=411). The K-H-T mode was used for the intervention group, and the routine management mode was applied to the control group. Using self-made questionnaire we tested two groups of patients' knowledge, attitude and life-style behavior. Chi-square test was used for data analysis. Result After one year KHT-based health management, the proportion of patients with reaching the standard knowledge such as diagnosis based, risk factors, correct treatment method, life-style for prevention of chronic disease and regular check-up of the intervention group (84.9%, 88.0%, 95.2%, 89.6%, 96.9%) obviously raised compared with the control group (56.3%, 53.6%, 59.5%,55.8%, 62.7%), and the difference was statistically significant (? 2=81.270, 118.394, 155.166, 119.672, 150.173,P<0.05). The proportion of patients with reaching the standard attitude such as on the importance of chronic diseases, the family doctor service, the nurses' health management and changing risk factors of the intervention group (80.8%, 78.2%, 81.8%, 77.5%) obviously raised comapred with the control group (59.0%, 54.3%, 52.8%, 56.5%), and the difference was statistically significant (?2=46.573, 52.429, 78.435, 40.744,P<0.05). The proportion of patients with reaching the standard life-style behavior such as diet, physical exercises, psychological states, correct medication, monitoring blood pressure and glucose of the intervention group (76.7%, 72.2%, 90.6%, 99.3%, 86.1%,42.0%) obviously raised than the control group (30.9%, 30.6%, 58.0%, 73.1%, 57.5%, 28.9%), and the difference was statistically significant (? 2=174.142, 142.147, 115.318, 119.783, 83.164, 15.341,P<0.05). The rate of blood pressure and glucose control of the intervention group (84.2%, 74.8%) also improved as compared with the control group (74.3%, 60.0%), and the difference was statistically significant (? 2=11.598, 20.576,P<0.05). Conclusion KAP-HBM-TTM (KHT)-based health management was proved to be effective in the control of chronic diseases of community and improve the effectiveness of the management.
