BackgroundIn China, the structure shift from just one-child family to both one-child and more-than-one-child families is happening. Exploring how the sibling relationships effect between adolescent personality impulsivity and aggressivity is of great significance for promoting adolescent mental health as well as maintaining social harmony and stability. ObjectiveTo investigate the effecting path of sibling relationships between personality impulsivity and aggressivity in adolescents, so as to provide references for the prevention of violent and aggressive behavior in adolescents. MethodsFrom February to April, 2023, a total of 1 200 students with sibling relationships from 12 primary and secondary schools in a county of Sichuan province were included by random sampling. Barratt Impulsivity Scale (BIS-11), Chinese Version of Buss & Perry Aggression Questionnaire (AQ-CV), and Sibling Relationship Questionnaire (SRQ) were used for cross-sectional investigation. Pearson Correlation Analysis was used to analyze the correlation between the scores of these scales. Bootstrap method was used to test the effecting path of sibling relationships between personality impulsivity and aggressivity. ResultsThe total score of BIS-11 was positively correlated with that of AQ-CV as well as the scores of conflict and competition dimensions in SRQ (r=0.485、0.276、0.280,P<0.01), while negatively correlated with the score of warmth/intimacy dimension in SRQ (r=-0.383, P<0.01). The total score of AQ-CV was positively correlated with the scores of conflict and competition dimensions in SRQ (r=0.387, 0.340, P<0.01), while negatively correlated with the score of warmth/intimacy dimension in SRQ (r=-0.304, P<0.01). Within SRQ, negative correlations could be observed between the score of warmth/intimacy and scores of conflict and competition (r=-0.307, -0.375, P<0.01), whereas positive correlation could be observed between the score of conflict and that of competition (r=0.267, P<0.01). The total effect of personality impulsivity level on aggressivity level in adolescent was 0.480 (P<0.01). Sibling relationships played a mediating role between personality impulsivity and aggressivity in adolescents. Meanwhile, the indirect effect values of warmth/intimacy, conflict and competition were 0.054, 0.075 and 0.062, with the effect values accounting for 11.21%, 15.70% and 12.93%, respectively. ConclusionThe personality impulsivity of adolescents can directly affect their aggressivity, and sibling relationships may act as an important channel connecting personality impulsivity and aggressivity.

Objective:To investigate and understand current status of radiotherapy resources in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and analyze the radiotherapy needs of ASEAN countries, aiming to provide suggestions for China's radiotherapy technology international assistance work.Methods:We created a database of 10 ASEAN countries using open-source data, including data on population size, per capita gross national income, new cancer cases, and radiotherapy equipment (megavolt units). We also estimated the number of cases requiring radiotherapy and the demand for radiotherapy equipment. Descriptive statistics were used to present aggregate data and national data.Results:In 2020, the number of new cancer cases in ASEAN countries was 1.0992 million, and the estimated total number of cancer patients requiring radiotherapy was 700 300. The number of radiotherapy equipment required was 1 406. At present, the actual number of radiotherapy equipment in ASEAN countries is 564, and there is a certain gap between the existing radiotherapy resources in some ASEAN countries and the actual needs of cancer patients in their own countries. In 2040, the estimated number of new cancer cases in ASEAN countries will be 1.803 million, and the estimated total number of cancer patients who need radiotherapy in ASEAN countries will be 1.141 2 million. The number of required radiotherapy equipment will be 2 287. By 2040, the growth rate of radiation therapy equipment demand in ASEAN countries will be 305%, and all ASEAN countries need to allocate more radiotherapy resources to cope with the increase in the number of cancer patients and radiotherapy demand.Conclusions:ASEAN countries have a huge demand for radiotherapy in the next two decades, while there are significant differences among different countries. China's precision radiotherapy science and technology have huge potential for ASEAN countries. Radiotherapy science and technology international assistance work based on the needs of ASEAN countries will help China's radiotherapy continue to exert influence and promote the health and well-being of people in ASEAN countries.

AIM: To explore the promoting effect of 2-APB on skin wound healing in mice and its potential mechanism. METHODS: KM mice were divided into 5 groups: control group, DMSO group, low (50 mg/L), medium (100 mg/L) and high (200 mg/L) concentration 2-APB group. On the back of each mouse's skin use a circular punch about 1 cm on both sides of the midline of the spine to make a skin wound with a diameter of 10 mm and as deep as the fascia. The control group was only wrapped with gauze and no drugs were applied; the DMSO group was applied 1 g DMSO/Vaseline ointment per day; in the 2-APB group, apply 1 g of 2-APB/Vaseline ointment at a corresponding concentration every day. Pictures were taken the next day to observe the healing, and the material was taken on the 21st day, HE staining was used to observe the pathological morphology of the wound and western blot to detect TRPM7, TGF-β, collagen-I and IL-1β expression. RESULTS: Compared with the control group and the DMSO group, different concentrations of 2-APB could significantly promote skin wound healing in mice (P<0.01), but there was no significant difference in wound healing rate between the DMSO group and the control group group. The results of HE staining showed that, compared with the control group group and the DMSO group, 2-APB could increase the collagen content of the wound and the thickness of the dermis (P<0.01), but there was no significant difference between the DMSO group and the control group group. At the same time, 2-APB could also significantly increase the expression of TGF-β and Col-I on the wound, and inhibit the expression of TRPM7 and IL-1β. CONCLUSION: Different concentrations of 2-APB (50, 100 and 200 mg/L) can promote skin wound healing, and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of TRPM7.

This study aimed to quantitatively assess the effectiveness of the Wuhan lockdown measure on controlling the spread of coronavirus diesase 2019 (COVID-19). : Firstly,estimate the daily new infection rate in Wuhan before January 23,2020 when the city went into lockdown by consulting the data of Wuhan population mobility and the number of cases imported from Wuhan in 217 cities of Mainland China. Then estimate what the daily new infection rate would have been in Wuhan from January 24 to January 30th if the lockdown measure had been delayed for 7 days,assuming that the daily new infection in Wuhan after January 23 increased in a high,moderate and low trend respectively (using exponential, linear and logarithm growth models). Based on that,calculate the number of infection cases imported from Wuhan during this period. Finally,predict the possible impact of 7-day delayed lockdown in Wuhan on the epidemic situation in China using the susceptible-exposed-infectious-removed (SEIR) model. : The daily new infection rate in Wuhan was estimated to be 0.021%,0.026%,0.029%,0.033% and 0.070% respectively from January 19 to January 23. And there were at least 20 066 infection cases in Wuhan by January 23,2020. If Wuhan lockdown measure had been delayed for 7 days,the daily new infection rate on January 30 would have been 0.335% in the exponential growth model,0.129% in the linear growth model,and 0.070% in the logarithm growth model. Correspondingly,there would have been 32 075,24 819 and 20 334 infection cases travelling from Wuhan to other areas of Mainland China,and the number of cumulative confirmed cases as of March 19 in Mainland China would have been 3.3-3.9 times of the officially reported number. Conclusions: Timely taking city-level lockdown measure in Wuhan in the early stage of COVID-19 outbreak is essential in containing the spread of the disease in China.

To predict the epidemiological trend of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) by mathematical modeling based on the population mobility and the epidemic prevention and control measures. : As of February 8,2020,the information of 151 confirmed cases in Yueqing,Zhejiang province were obtained,including patients' infection process,population mobility between Yueqing and Wuhan,etc. To simulate and predict the development trend of COVID-19 in Yueqing, the study established two-stage mathematical models,integrating the population mobility data with the date of symptom appearance of confirmed cases and the transmission dynamics of imported and local cases. : It was found that in the early stage of the pandemic,the number of daily imported cases from Wuhan (using the date of symptom appearance) was positively associated with the number of population travelling from Wuhan to Yueqing on the same day and 6 and 9 days before that. The study predicted that the final outbreak size in Yueqing would be 170 according to the number of imported cases estimated by consulting the population number travelling from Wuhan to Yueqing and the susceptible-exposed-infectious-recovered (SEIR) model; while the number would be 165 if using the reported daily number of imported cases. These estimates were close to the 170,the actual monitoring number of cases in Yueqing as of April 27,2020. : The two-stage modeling approach used in this study can accurately predict COVID-19 epidemiological trend.

OBJECTIVE:To excavate the safety warning signals induced by azole antifungal agents ,including fluconazole , ketoconazole,itraconazole and voriconazole after marketing ,and to provide references for rational drug use in the clinic. METHODS:Reporting odds ratio (ROR)data mining algorithm was used to investigate signals of adverse drug event (ADE)for fluconazole,ketoconazole,itraconazole and voriconazole from FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS)during January 1st,2004 to March 30th,2019. ROR data mining method was used to excavate the ADR signals of the drugs ,and main ADR involved in the safety information of azole antifungal agents instructions were analyzed. RESULTS :A total of 27 831,5 712, 5 381 and 11 333 reports were picked out for fluconazole ,ketoconazole,itraconazole and voriconazole ,respectively. All of these drugs had exhibited high-risk signals detection by ROR ,including medical examination ,blood and lymphatic system disorders , renal and urinary disorders ,endocrine diseases ,hepatobiliary disorders. The hepatotoxic-related ADR signals were mainly concentrated in fluconazole and voriconazole (fluconazole ROR =6.51,voriconazole ROR =14.65);ADR detection results of Cushing’s-like syndrome (ROR=24.86) and adrenal suppression (ROR=44.06) by itraconazole showed high-risk signals ; ketoconazole and itraconazole had showed a strong ADR signal in adrenocortical dysfunction (ketoconazole ROR =15.64, itraconazole ROR =23.26),and the signal intensity of ketoconazole (ROR=2.81)in skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders was significantly higher than that of other drugs . In addition ,hemorrhagic cystitis caused by fluconazole,itraconazole and voriconazole were not included in the drug instructions (fluconazole ROR =17.73,itraconazole ROR =31.43,voriconazole ROR =17.06); netted green spot caused by fluconazole (ROR=10.50)were not included in the drug instructions . CONCLUSIONS:Clinical staff should pay more attention to the differences in serious ADR related to fluconazole ,ketoconazole,itraconazole and voriconazole ; particularly some ADRs not mentioned in the drug instructions but have high incidence such as hemorrhagic cystitis caused by fluconazole,itraconazole,voriconazole and netted green spot caused by fluconazole ,as well as ADRs mentioned in the drug instructions but have abnormally high signal ,such as Cushing ’s-like syndrome and adrenal suppression caused by itraconazole .

Objective:To evaluate the pedicled bridge transplantation with medial leg skin flap and medial hemi-soleus muscle flap for the treatment of soft tissue defects at the contrallateral leg.Methods:Between January of 2012 and January of 2016, 8 patients with soft tissue defects at the leg were treated at Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Hand and Foot Surgery Hospital of Lanzhou. They were 5 men and 3 women, aged from 19 to 50 years (mean, 35 years). All of them were treated by bridge transplantation with medial leg skin flap and medial hemi-soleus muscle flap pedicled with posterior tibial artery. The size of the defects ranged from 10 cm×9 cm to 13 cm×8 cm. The immediate coverage of the muscle flaps and vessel pedicle was repaired by a meshed split-thickness skin graft. The donor site was closed directly. The therapeutic efficacy was assessed at the final follow-up according to the criteria by Iowa for tibial fractures.Results:All the skin flaps and muscle flaps survived without any vascular crisis. One case developed necrosis of small skin graft at the distal muscle flap which spontaneously healed after dressing change for 2 weeks. Their follow-up ranged from 2.5 to 4.5 years (mean, 3.8 years). A good contour was confirmed at the recipient area. By the Iowa criteria at the final follow-up, 3 cases were excellent, 4 good and one fair.Conclusion:Pedicled bridge transplantation with medial leg skin flap and medial hemi-soleus muscle flap is a good treatment for soft tissue defects at the contrallateral leg which has only one major blood vessel, reducing damage to the donor site.
