Objective:To analyze the current situation of myopia and its related factors among primary school students in a certain district of Beijing City in 2022, and provide a basis for the risk assessment of myopia among primary school students.Method:In June 2022, a cluster sampling method was used to include 376 third-grade students from a primary school in a certain district of Beijing. A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect basic information about students, including eye usage habits, reading and writing postures, and parents′ myopia conditions. The examination of students′ distant visual acuity and refractive status was performed. A multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the related factors of myopia occurrence.Results:The age of 376 primary school students was (8.87±0.417) years old, with 48.40% (182) being male. A total of 196 myopia cases were identified, with a myopia rate of 52.13%. The results of the multivariate logistic regression model analysis showed that students who sometimes read while lying down ( OR=2.003, 95% CI: 1.128-3.555), often read while lying down ( OR=18.853, 95% CI: 4.512-78.778), had outdoor activity time less than 120 minutes per day ( OR=4.937, 95% CI: 2.4464-9.892), were engaged in indoor break activities ( OR=4.995, 95% CI: 2.773-8.996), performed eye exercises less than once per day ( OR=8.710, 95% CI: 4.464-16.995), had a reading distance from the book less than 30 cm ( OR=5.098, 95% CI: 2.410-10.787), occasionally maintained a fist distance from the edge of the desk ( OR=1.918, 95% CI: 1.086-3.385), and had high school desks and tables ( OR=5.325, 95% CI: 1.465-19.359) could have a higher risk of myopia occurrence, compared with those who never read while lying down, had outdoor activity time more than 120 minutes per day, maintained outdoor break activities, performed eye exercises more than once per day, had a reading distance from the book more than 30 cm, always maintained a fist distance from the edge of the desk, and had short school desks and tables. Conclusion:The incidence rate of myopia among primary school students in a certain district of Beijing City. in 2022 is relatively high. The occurrence of myopia is related to insufficient outdoor activity time and poor eye usage habits.

Thalamocortical circuitry has a substantial impact on emotion and cognition.Previous studies have demonstrated alterations in thalamocortical functional connectivity(FC),characterized by region-dependent hypo-or hyper-connectivity,among individuals with major depressive disorder(MDD).However,the dynamical reconfiguration of the thalamocortical system over time and potential abnormalities in dynamic thalamocortical connectivity associated with MDD remain unclear.Hence,we analyzed dynamic FC(dFC)between ten thalamic subregions and seven cortical subnetworks from resting-state functional magnetic resonance images of 48 patients with MDD and 57 healthy controls(HCs)to investigate time-varying changes in thalamocortical FC in patients with MDD.Moreover,dynamic laterality analysis was conducted to examine the changes in functional lateralization of the thalamocortical system over time.Correlations between the dynamic measures of thalamocortical FC and clinical assessment were also calculated.We identified four dynamic states of thalamocortical circuitry wherein patients with MDD exhibited decreased fractional time and reduced transitions within a negative connectivity state that showed strong correlations with primary cortical networks,compared with the HCs.In addition,MDD patients also exhibited increased fluctuations in functional laterality in the thalamocortical system across the scan duration.The thalamo-subnetwork analysis unveiled abnormal dFC variability involving higher-order cortical networks in the MDD cohort.Significant correlations were found between increased dFC variability with dorsal attention and default mode networks and the severity of symptoms.Our study comprehensively investigated the pattern of alteration of the thalamocortical dFC in MDD patients.The heterogeneous alterations of dFC between the thalamus and both primary and higher-order cortical networks may help characterize the deficits of sensory and cognitive processing in MDD.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of azacitidine combined with venetoclax or CAG regimen in the treatment of newly treated elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinical data of 34 newly treated elderly patients with AML treated in the Fifth People's Hospital of Datong from May 2018 to August 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the treatment regimen, all patients were divided into venetoclax group (azacitidine + venetoclax, 17 cases) and CAG group (azacitidine + CAG regimen, 17 cases). The clinicopathological characteristics, efficacy, adverse reactions and survival of the both groups were compared.Results:There were no statistically significant differences in the clinical data of both groups (all P > 0.05). The complete remission (CR) rate and the objective response rate (ORR) in venetoclax group were higher than those in CAG group [CR: 70.6%(12/17) vs. 47.1% (8/17); ORR: 82.4% (14/17) vs. 64.7% (11/17)],while the differences in CR and ORR were not statistically significant (χ 2 = 2.00, P = 0.163; χ 2 = 2.00, P = 0.244). The follow-up time[ M ( Q1, Q3)] was 25.4 months (7.2 months, 60.3 months). At the end of follow-up, 19 of 34 patients survived (13 cases in venetoclax group and 6 cases in CAG group); 15 died (4 cases in venetoclax group and 11 cases in CAG group). The median overall survival (OS) time was 14.22 months (95% CI: 8.2-60.3 months) and 10.56 months (95% CI: 7.2-50.2 months), respectively in venetoclax group and CAG group;the median progression-free survival (PFS) time was 9.97 months (95% CI: 5.4-40.5 months) and 6.82 months (95% CI: 5.0-36.2 months), respectively, and there were no statistically significant differences in OS and PFS between the two groups (all P > 0.05). Grade 3-4 hematological adverse reactions occurred in 16 and 14 patients in venetoclax group and CAG group, respectively. There were no significant differences in granulocyte deficiency time, platelet deficiency time, infection and bleeding incidence between the two groups (all P > 0.05). Conclusions:Azacitidine combined with venetoclax or CAG regimen have better clinical efficacy and safety for newly treated elderly patients with AML.

Objective:To explore the effects of non-suicidal self-injury on suicidal ideation in adolescents with depressive disorder, and the mediating role of rumination and depression between them.Methods:A sample of 397 depressive disorder adolescents were recruited to complete the adolescent non-suicidal self-injury behaviour questionnaire, ruminative responses scale (RRS), self-rating depression scale (SDS), and Beck scale for suicide ideation-Chinese version(BSI-CV). All data processing and analysis were performed using SPSS 23.0.The mediating effect was tested by correlation analysis and Bootstrap analysis.Results:The non-suicidal self-injury score was (29.192±11.281), the rumination score was (65.036±12.284), the depression score was (75.770±11.278), and the suicidal ideation score was (40.681±11.626). Non-suicidal self-injury was significantly and positively correlated with suicidal ideation( r=0.403, P<0.01), rumination and depression( r=0.332, 0.470, both P<0.01). Rumination was significantly and positively correlated with depression and suicidal ideation( r=0.549, 0.181, both P<0.05). Depression was significantly and positively correlated with suicidal ideation( r=0.313, P<0.01). The direct effect value of non-suicidal self-injury on suicidal ideation was 0.341(95% CI=0.238-0.444), the indirect effect of non-suicidal self-injury on suicidal ideation through two pathways, the separate mediating effect value of depression was 0.057(95% CI=0.077-0.114), and the chain mediating effect value of rumination and depression was 0.026(95% CI=0.004-0.057). Conclusion:Non-suicidal self-injury can directly affect suicidal ideation of depressive disorder adolescents and indirectly through rumination and depression.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of azacitidine alone or combined with half-course CAG (arorubicin + cytarabine + granulocyte colony stimulating factor) regimen and azacitidine combined with full-course CAG regimen in treatment of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS).Methods:The clinical data of 51 patients with AML and MDS admitted to Datong Fifth People's Hospital from September 2019 to March 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 17 patients received azacitidine alone 7-day regimen, 17 patients received azacitidine combined with half-course CAG regimen and 17 patients received azacitidine combined with full-course CAG regimen. The remission rate, adverse reaction rate and supportive treatment were compared among the three groups.Results:The objective remission rate (ORR) was 58.8% (10/17), 64.7% (11/17) and 70.6% (12/17) in azacitidine alone group, azacitidine combined with half course CAG group, and azacitidine combined with full course CAG group, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant among the above groups ( P = 0.773). The main adverse reaction after treatment with azacitidine was bone marrow suppression,and 32 patients had grade 3-4 hematological side effects. The average time of agranulocytopenia was (15±5) d, 23 patients had infection and 11 cases had hemorrhage. There were no significant differences of the three groups in the hemorrhage incidence, the infection, incidence, agranulocytosis time, the amount of red blood cell infusion and the amount of platelet infusion (all P > 0.05). Except 1 patient died of acute left ventricular dysfunction after chemotherapy in the first cycle and 1 patient died of cerebral hemorrhage after chemotherapy in the third cycle, all the patients successfully completed the chemotherapy after active symptomatic support treatment and safely passed the bone marrow suppression period. Conclusions:Azacitidine alone, azacitidine combined with half-course CAG, azacitidine combined with full-course CAG regimens in the treatment of AML/MDS all show good curative effects, and their adverse reactions are similar to supportive treatment. Azacitidine combined with full-course CAG regimen has a relatively high effective rate.

The study aimed to achieve enhanced targeted cytotoxicity and cell-internalization of cisplatin-loaded deoxyribonucleic acid-nanothread (CPT-DNA-NT),mediated by scavenger receptors into HeLa cells.DNA-NT was developed with stiff-topology utilizing circular-scaffold to encapsulate CPT.Atomic force microscopy (AFM) characterization of the DNA-NT showed uniformity in the structure with a diameter of 50-150 nm and length of 300-600 nm.The successful fabrication of the DNA-NT was confirmed through native-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis,as large the molecular-weight (polymeric) DNA-NT did not split into constituting strands under applied current and voltage.The results of cell viability confirmed that blank DNA-NT had the least cytotoxicity at the highest concentration (512 nM) with a viability of 92% as evidence of its biocompatibility for drug delivery.MTT assay showed superior cyto-toxicity of CPT-DNA-NT than that of the free CPT due to the depot release of CPT after DNA-NT inter-nalization.The DNA-NT exhibited targeted cell internalizations with the controlled intracellular release of CPT (from DNA-NT),as illustrated in confocal images.Therefore,in vitro cytotoxicity assessment through flow cytometry showed enhanced apoptosis (72.7%) with CPT-DNA-NT (compared to free CPT;64.4%).CPT-DNA-NT,being poly-anionic,showed enhanced endocytosis via scavenger receptors.
