Objectives:
Maternal depression negatively affects depression and anxiety symptoms in the offspring. This study examined the association between maternal depression and their adolescent offspring depression and anxiety, as well as the mediating role of emotional trauma in determining the association.
Methods:
Participants were 237 mothers (46.08±5.00 years) and their adolescent offspring (16.54±1.51 years). The participants completed the Beck Depression Inventory-II, Early Trauma Inventory Self Report-Short Form, Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale for Children, and the Screen for Children’s Anxiety Related Disorders. The mediating effect of emotional trauma on offspring was explored using mediation analysis.
Results:
Maternal depressive symptoms were significantly correlated with adolescent offspring traumatic experiences, as well as with their depressive and anxiety symptoms. Mediation analysis results showed that emotional trauma of offspring significantly mediated the effect of maternal depression on their depressive and anxiety symptoms.
Conclusion
Findings indicate that maternal depression was significantly associated with depressive and anxiety symptoms in adolescent offspring, mediated by their emotional trauma. Future research is needed to investigate pathways and intervention strategies to prevent the intergenerational transmission of emotional problems.

Objective:
As the demand for community mental health services continues to grow, the need for well-equipped and organized services has become apparent. This study aimed to optimize the roles and infrastructure of mental health services, by establishing, among other initiatives, standardized operating models.
Methods:
The study was conducted in multiple phases from May 12, 2021, to December 29, 2021. Stakeholders within South Korea and metropolitan mental health welfare centers were targeted, but addiction management support centers, including officials, patients, and their families, were integrated as well. A literature review and survey, focus group interviews, a Delphi survey, and expert consultation contributed to comprehensive revisions and improvements of the mental health service model.
Results:
The proposed model for community mental health welfare centers emphasizes the expansion of personnel and infrastructure, with a focus on severe mental illnesses and suicide prevention. The model for metropolitan mental health welfare centers delineates essential tasks in areas such as project planning and establishment, community research, and education about severe mental illnesses. The establishment of a 24-hour emergency intervention center was a crucial feature. In the integrated addiction support center model, the need to promote addiction management is defined as an essential task and the establishment of national governance for addiction policies is recommended.
Conclusion
This study proposed standard operating models for three types of mental health service centers. To meet the increasing need for community care, robust mental health service delivery systems are of primary importance.

Achieving periodontal regeneration in class III furcation defects is challenging. Many studies have applied growth factors to periodontal defects, including fibroblast growth factors (FGFs), which demonstrate angiogenic activity and mitogenic ability. This study aimed to evaluate periodontal regeneration following the application of FGF-2 to deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) in surgically created supra-alveolar class III furcation defects of the mandibular premolars of beagles. The defects were divided into the control, DBBM, and FGF/DBBM groups. For the control group, only root planing was performed. For the DBBM group, only DBBM particles were implanted into the furcation. For the FGF/DBBM group, DBBM was soaked with 0.3% FGF-2 solution, and FGF-2/ DBBM was then positioned into the furcation. After 8 weeks, the dogs were euthanized. The micro-computed tomography analysis revealed that the changes in the bone volume of the furcation area were significantly greater in the FGF/DBBM group than in the DBBM group. In the histomorphometric analysis, the area of the newly formed bone was significantly greater in the FGF/DBBM group than in the DBBM or control group. The cementum extension was significantly longer in the FGF/DBBM or DBBM group than in the control group. The epithelial area was significantly less in the FGF/DBBM group than in the DBBM or control group. The application of FGF combined with DBBM to a class III defect enhanced the regeneration of periodontal tissues and increased the healing rate. This finding indicates that FGF-2 combined with DBBM can be applied to class III defects clinically.

Objective To study the efficacy of bronchoalveolar lavage(BAL)combined with prone positioning in children with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(MPP)and atelectasis and its effect on pulmonary function.Methods A prospective study was conducted on 94 children with MPP and atelectasis who were hospitalized in Ordos Central Hospital of Inner Mongolia from November 2020 to May 2023.The children were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group,with 47 children in each group.The children in the treatment group were given conventional treatment,BAL,and prone positioning,and those in the control group were given conventional treatment and BAL.The two groups were compared in terms of fever,pulmonary signs,length of hospital stay,lung recruitment,and improvement in pulmonary function.Results Compared with the control group,the treatment group had significantly shorter time to improvement in pulmonary signs and length of hospital stay and a significantly higher rate of lung recruitment on day 7 of hospitalization,on the day of discharge,and at 1 week after discharge(P<0.05).Compared with the control group,the treatment group had significantly higher levels of forced vital capacity(FVC)as a percentage of the predicted value,forced expiratory volume(FEV)in 1 second as a percentage of the predicted value,ratio of FEV in 1 second to FVC,forced expiratory flow at 50%of FVC as a percentage of the predicted value,forced expiratory flow at 75%of FVC as a percentage of the predicted value,and maximal mid-expiratory flow as a percentage of the predicted value on the day of discharge and at 1 week after discharge(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the time for body temperature to return to normal between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusions In the treatment of children with MPP and atelectasis,BAL combined with prone positioning can help to shorten the time to improvement in pulmonary signs and the length of hospital stay and promote lung recruitment and improvement in pulmonary function.
