ObjectiveTo investigate the current status of emergency management for severe mental disorders in Shanghai, and to provide countermeasures and suggestions for the establishment of a sound emergency management system for severe mental disorders and the enhancement of emergency management capability. MethodsA questionnaire survey and qualitative interviews were used to conduct an investigation into the emergency management in 17 district-level mental illness prevention and control institutions in Shanghai, which includes the basic situation of emergency management for severe mental disorders, the construction of emergency response teams and personnel, emergency preparedness drills and training, emergency management plans and rules and regulations, and problems encountered in emergency management. ResultsIn terms of emergency management mechanism and basic situation, resources such as personnel allocation, security funds and green channel were well equipped in each district-level mental illness prevention and control institution in Shanghai. However, the equipment of some hardware facilities was still insufficient to some extent. Therefore, further improvement on the emergency management mechanism for severe mental disorders was needed. With regard to the construction of emergency team and personnel allocation, the majority were those aged between 35‒<45 years old, with a bachelor’s degree, and more than 10 years of working experience. For example, 90.27% staff in district-level mental illness prevention and control institution had a bachelor’s degree or above, which was higher than that among the staff in community-level (73.60%); staff majored in clinical medicine in district-level institution accounted for the proportion at 52.71%, higher than that among the staff in community-level (28.86%); 57.24% staff in district-level institution had an intermediate professional title, higher than that among the staff in community-level (42.28%); and 69.90% staff in district-level institution had more than 10 years of working experience, higher than that among the staff in community-level (43.62%). In the aspect of emergency drills and training, all district-level mental illness prevention and control institutions in Shanghai had a high demand for emergency training, and the weak aspects mainly focused on lack of emergency service protocols, skills of addressing technical challenges, and construction of effectiveness evaluation system. Moreover, the teaching methods were primarily centered on case analysis, simulation drills, interactive discussions, and so forth. Concerning emergency management plans and rules and regulations, all districts in Shanghai had relatively established well-developed systems for emergency response plans, emergency response leadership groups, and emergency response operational task forces for severe mental disorders. About half of the institutions had established other rules and regulations related to emergency management of severe mental disorders in addition to emergency plans. ConclusionShanghai has initially established an emergency management system for severe mental disorders, but it is still fragile in specialized training for emergency management of severe mental disorders, construction of emergency management mechanisms, and the building-up of grassroots emergency teams. Further priorities should include strengthening emergency management training, enhancing the construction of emergency management personnel teams, and gradually establishing a more comprehensive and integrated emergency management mechanism for severe mental disorders.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of paliperidone palmitate treatment on schizophrenic patients in the community. Methods446 schizophrenic patients who used paliperidone palmitate injection were selected in Shanghai. Before and after the treatment, the disease family burden scale, the concise evaluation scale of drug treatment compliance, the VAS100 score of treatment satisfaction, the short form of quality of life measurement scale, and the screening scale of social function defects were used to evaluate the effects of paliperidone palmitate injection. The data were statistically analyzed using SPSS 26.0 software. ResultsAfter using paliperidone palmitate injection, the total score of family burden (13.94±12.17), the score of daily family activities (3.26±2.74), the score of family entertainment activities (2.21±2.30), and the score of family relationship (2.79±2.76) were significantly higher than those before the treatment (14.98±12.64, 3.51±2.88, 2.48±2.38, 3.11±2.87, respectively, all with P<0.05). The scores of the World Health Organization on quality of life brief scale (62.89±11.94) and the medication compliance scale (28.11±5.64) were better than those before treatment (60.67±12.62 and 27.37±6.96, all with P<0.05). Compared with the prior treatment without paliperidone palmitate injection, the number of readmissions after treatment was significantly reduced (P<0.01). ConclusionThe treatment of paliperidone palmitate injection has significant effect, which can effectively reduce the disease family burden of Schizophrenic patients, improve their quality of life, enhance their drug compliance, reduce the readmission rate of patients, ensure long-term treatment effect and promote disease recovery.

Objective:
To analyze the disease burden and trend of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in China from 1990 to 2019, so as to provide the basic theoretical basis for the health administrative departments to formulate policies.
Methods:
Using the 2019 Global Burden of Disease Database, the incidence, prevalence and disability adjusted life year (DALY) rates of ADHD were analyzed for both sex and different age groups, and the trends of ADHD were predicted.
Results:
In 2019, the incidence, prevalence and DALY rate of ADHD in China were 70.41/100 000, 1 546.15/100 000 and 18.87/100 000 respectively. Compared with 1990, the rates decreased by 27.30%, 25.35% and 55.80% respectively, and these rates of females were lower than those of males. In 2019, the incidence rate of ADHD was the highest in the age group 5-9 years old (837.76/100 000), while the highest prevalence and DALY rates were found in ages groups of 10-14 years old (5 740.47/100 000 and 70.49/100 000). The results of the Joinpoint regression model showed that the incidence, prevalence and DALY rate had a downward trend from 1990 to 2019. The AAPC was -1.35%, -1.16% and -1.16%, respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( P <0.05). The prediction results of grey prediction model GM (1,1) indicated that the incidence and prevalence rate of ADHD in China would decline from 2020 to 2030.
Conclusion
The burden of ADHD in China showed a decreasing trend from 1990 to 2019, indicating that the prevention and treatment effect of ADHD in children and adolescents of China was effective. China should take active preventive measures to reduce the burden of ADHD in children and adolescents.

Objective:
To explore the changes in root volume and root resorption in incisor arteries from adult patients with skeletal class Ⅲ malocclusion before and after camouflaged orthodontic treatment and to provide a reference for the clinic.
Methods :
Thirty permanent dentition adult patients with skeletal class Ⅲ malocclusion were included from the Orthodontic Department. CBCT data of each patient at pretreatment and posttreatment were acquired, and 3D digital root models were reconstructed. The whole and segmented root volumes (cervical part, bodily part and apical part) of the right incisors were calculated.
Results:
The root volumes (whole, cervical part, bodily part and apical part) posttreatment were smaller than those pretreatment (P<0.001). Maxillary central incisors and lateral incisors showed similar resorption in the cervical root and bodily root and more changes in the apical root, but there was no significant difference (P>0.05). Mandibular central incisors and lateral incisors showed more root resorption in the apical root than in the cervical root and bodily root (P<0.01). The absorption ratio of all segmented roots in each incisor showed a significant difference (P<0.001), and apical absorption was the most obvious. There were no significant differences in root volume change amounts or the absorption ratio of the whole, cervical part and bodily part in all incisors (P>0.05). The absorption ratio showed a significant difference in the mandibular lateral incisors (P = 0.028).
Conclusion
After camouflaged orthodontic treatment of adult skeletal class Ⅲ malocclusion, incisor root resorption occurred mainly in the apical part, but the cervical and bodily parts should also be considered. There was a high risk of root resorption in the mandibular incisors.

Objective To evaluate the influence of stress distributions on bone-anchored maxillary protraction at different protraction sites, so as to guide patients to choose an optimal protraction site in clinic. Methods A three-dimensional (3D) finite element model of child head with implant anchorages was establised. Four protraction sites were set according to the position of implant installation. Working condition 1: the alveolar bone at the intersection of distal 2 mm of primary lateral incisor crown distal surface and gingival cervical margin to 5 mm. Working condition 2: the alveolar bone at the intersection of mesial 2 mm of maxillary first primary molar crown mesial surface and gingival cervical margin to 5 mm. Working condition 3: the alveolar bone at the intersection of mesial 2 mm of maxillary first molar crown mesial surface and gingival cervical margin to 5 mm. Working condition 4: the alveolar bone at the intersection of distal 2 mm of maxillary first molar crown distal surface and gingival cervical margin to 5 mm. The finite element models were loaded with 500 g protraction force at each side with 30° forward direction to the occlusal plane. Stress distributions on each suture were analysed. Results The maximum stress of frontomaxillary suture was in working condition 2 (1 477-28 190 Pa). The maximum stress of nasomaxillary suture was in working condition 1 (5.296-924 Pa). The maximum stress of zygomaticomaxillary suture was in working condition 4(394.7-13 130 Pa). The maximum stress of zygomaticofrontalis suture was in working condition 4 (495.2-31 690 Pa). The maximum stress of zygomaticotemporal suture was in working condition 3 (1 148-15 870 Pa). The maximum stress of medianpalatine suture was in working condition I (6.479-730 Pa). Conclusions When the protraction sites are set in distal maxillary primary lateral incisor and mesial maxillary first primary molar, it is of positive significance to improve the concave profile, especially in nose root. When the protraction sites are set in mesial or distal maxillary first molar, it is of positive significance to improve the concave profile, especially in maxillary basal bone of the midface.

Constitutively activated G proteins caused by specific mutations mediate the development of multiple malignancies. The mutated Gαq/11 are perceived as oncogenic drivers in the vast majority of uveal melanoma (UM) cases, making directly targeting Gαq/11 to be a promising strategy for combating UM. Herein, we report the optimization of imidazopiperazine derivatives as Gαq/11 inhibitors, and identified GQ262 with improved Gαq/11 inhibitory activity and drug-like properties. GQ262 efficiently blocked UM cell proliferation and migration in vitro. Analysis of the apoptosis-related proteins, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), and yes-associated protein (YAP) demonstrated that GQ262 distinctly induced UM cells apoptosis and disrupted the downstream effectors by targeting Gαq/11 directly. Significantly, GQ262 showed outstanding antitumor efficacy in vivo with good safety at the testing dose. Collectively, our findings along with the favorable pharmacokinetics of GQ262 revealed that directly targeting Gαq/11 may be an efficient strategy against uveal melanoma.

Objective:To investigate the relationship of eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) levels in sera and blister fluids with bullous pemphigoid (BP) .Methods:From January 2012 to October 2019, 40 patients with newly diagnosed BP and 40 healthy individuals were enrolled from Department of Dermatology, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, and serum ECP levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Meanwhile, another 33 patients with newly diagnosed BP and 41 patients with non-autoimmune bullous diseases were enrolled, and the ECP level was detected in blister fluids by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Pathological sections of skin lesions of 1 patient with BP and 1 with contact dermatitis were subjected to immunohistochemical staining for ECP. Normally distributed data were compared between 2 groups by using t test or t′ test, while enumeration data were compared by using chi-square test. Pearson′s correlation coefficient was used to analyze the relationship between serum levels of ECP and proportions of peripheral blood eosinophils in patients with BP. Results:The serum level of ECP was significantly higher in the BP group (116.9 ± 19.3 ng/L) than in the healthy control group (93.3 ± 15.9 ng/L, t = 5.96, P<0.001) , and the blister fluid level of ECP was also significantly higher in the BP group (665.8 ± 189.0 ng/L) than in the non-autoimmune bullous disease group (547.5 ± 240.6 ng/L, t = 2.31, P = 0.02) . Immunohistochemical study showed more brown-yellow particles in the cytoplasm of ECP-positive cells in the BP group than in the contact dermatitis group. There was no significant correlation between the serum level of ECP and proportion of peripheral blood eosinophils in the BP patients ( r = -0.15, P = 0.35) . Conclusion:The levels of ECP in the sera and blister fluids markedly increased in the patients with BP, and blister fluid levels of ECP were much higher than serum levels of ECP, suggesting that ECP may be involved in the occurrence of BP.

Objective:
The study was designed to analyze the clinicopanthologic characteristics, treatments and outcomes of a series of patients with primary angiosarcoma.
Methods:
The clinical, surgical and pathological data and treatment of 68 patients with pathologically confirmed angiosarcoma admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 1990 to June 2017 was retrospectively analyzed. Kaplan-Meier method and Log rank test were used for univariate survival analysis and Cox regression model was used for multivariate survival analysis.
Results:
A total of 68 patients were enrolled, 38 were male, 30 were female. The median age at diagnosis was 50.5 years. The time from symptom onset to diagnosis was (7.5±7.5) months. The primary sites included face and scalp, breast, chest wall, lung, heart, liver, spleen, extremities, bones and so on. At diagnosis, the mean size of tumors were (7.4±7.3) cm, 28 patients (41.2%) had localized disease (stage Ⅰ+ Ⅱ) and 40 patients had metastatic disease (stage Ⅲ+ Ⅳ). There were 37 patients treated with surgery alone, three receiving radiotherapy alone, five receiving chemotherapy alone and sixteen receiving comprehensive treatment with 5 underwent surgery plus radiotherapy, three treated by surgery plus chemotherapy, four had surgery plus interventional therapy, two had chemoradiotherapy, one had radiotherapy and interventional therapy and 1 had surgery plus chemoradiotherapy and targeted therapy. Five patients received only palliative treatment, and 2 patients lost follow-up after diagnosed. Fifty patients were followed up with a median overall survival time of 8.5 months. The median survival time of patients with metastatic angiosarcoma was 6.6 months, significantly shorter than that of patients with localized disease (15.0 months,
