Objective: To explore the impact of family function intervention on mental health status of middle school students, so as to provide the reference for promoting adolescent mental health. Methods: From October 2023 to January 2024, 44 families from grade 2 of one junior high school were recruited. They were randomly divided into an intervention group ( n =21) and a control group ( n =23) using a simple random sampling method. Both groups of families participated in various daily school activities and learning, but the intervention group of families also participated in 10 online family function intervention courses. Family Assessment Device (FAD) and the Middle School Student Mental Health Scale (MSSMHS) were used as evaluation tools. Pearson correlation analysis was used to test the correlation between FAD total scores of middle school students and the total mean scores of MSSMHS, and repeated measures ANOVA was used to analyze FAD scores changes in various dimensions before and after intervention. Results: The total score of FAD in middle school students was positively correlated with the total average score of MSSMHS ( r= 0.44, P <0.01). Before intervention, there was no statistically significant difference in the FAD scores (intervention group: 143.19 ±16.05, control group:144.87±22.40) and MSSMHS total average scores (intervention group: 1.69±0.46, control group: 1.77 ±0.59) between the two groups ( t=0.28, 0.53, P >0.05). After intervention, the main effect of time, group, and time group interaction of the interventions on the FAD total scores between the intervention group and the control group were statistically significant ( F=11.87, 7.26, 11.04, P <0.05). Further simple effects analysis revealed that the post test FAD total score of the intervention group (121.71±16.01) decreased by 21.48 points compared to the pre test and was lower than the post test total score of the control group (144.47±17.71), with statistically significant differences ( t=4.68, 4.11, P <0.05). The main effect of the group on the total mean MSSMHS score between the intervention and control groups was statistically significant ( F=8.45, P <0.05), while the main effect of time was not statistically significant ( F=1.68, P >0.05). Further comparative analysis revealed that the post test total mean score of MSSMHS in the intervention group (1.34±0.23) was lower than that in the control group (1.85±0.52) ( t=3.48, P <0.01). Conclusion Family function intervention can improve the mental health status of middle school students, and relevant measures should be actively taken to promote adolescent mental health.

OBJECTIVE To observe the short-term efficacy and safety of venetoclax combined with homoharringtonine and cytarabine in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia （AML）. METHODS The data of 40 newly diagnosed AML patients admitted to our hospital from October 2022 to November 2023 were retrospectively collected and divided into observation group and control group according to treatment plan， with 20 cases in each group. The patients in the control group were given Daunorubicin hydrochloride for injection+Cytarabine for injection， and the patients in the observation group were given Venetoclax tablets+ Homoharringtonine injection+Cytarabine for injection. The patients in both groups were given relevant medicine， with 28 days as one cycle. The short-term efficacy， negative rate of minimal residual disease （MRD）， duration of granulocyte deficiency， duration of platelet （PLT） ＜20×109 L－1， transfusion volume of suspended red blood cells and platelet， and the occurrence of adverse drug reactions were evaluated in both groups after 1 cycle of induction chemotherapy. RESULTS The complete remission or complete remission with incomplete hematologic recovery （CR/CRi） rate in the observation group was significantly higher than control group （P＜0.05）， and the negative rate of MRD in the observation group was also significantly higher than control group （P＜0.05）. However， in low-， medium- and high-risk patients， there was no statistical significance in CR/CRi rates between the two groups （P＞0.05）. There were no significant differences in the duration of agranulocytosis， the duration of PLT ＜20×109 L－1， the amount of suspended red blood cell transfusion， the amount of platelet transfusion， the incidence of hematologic toxicity and the incidence of non-hematologic toxicity between 2 groups （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Venetoclax combined with homoharringtonine and cytarabine show good short-term efficacy and safety in the treatment of AML.

Lipophosphatidic acid(LTA)was used to stimulate Mac-T cells,and the expression lev-els and phosphorylation levels of key proteins of nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)and mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK)signaling pathway and the expression levels of upstream key action factors TLR4 and MyD88 proteins were detected by Western blot,and EDU assay was used to detect cell proliferation levels and flow cytometry was used to detect apoptosis.The results showed that acti-vation of GPR120 significantly decreased the phosphorylation levels of LTA-induced NF-κB(P65 and IκBα)(P＜0.01)and MAPK(JNK,ERK,p38)(P＜0.01)in Mac-T cells;inhibition of GPR120 was able to upregulate LTA-induced NF-κB(p65 and IκBα)in Mac-T cells(P＜0.01)and MAPK(JNK,ERK,p38)phosphorylation levels(P＜0.01);and activation of GPR120 significantly allevia-ted LTA-induced upregulation of TLR4 and MyD88(P＜0.01);inhibition of GPR120 significantly exacerbated LTA-induced upregulation of TLR4 and MyD88(P＜0.05);LTA stimulation led to a trend of diminished Mac-T cell proliferation and significantly increased apoptosis,whereas activa-tion of the GPR120 gene significantly increased cell activity(P＜0.01),promoted cell proliferation and significantly reduced apoptosis(P＜0.05)thereby alleviating the damage to Mac-T cells by LTA;LTA stimulation led to a highly significant increase in apoptosis(P＜0.01).In contrast,acti-vation of the GPR120 gene significantly reversed the increase in the apoptosis rate of Mac-T cells induced by LTA(P＜0.01),while inhibition of the GPR120 gene enhanced the apoptosis-promo-ting effect of LTA(P＜0.05),indicating that activation of the GPR120 gene attenuated the in-crease of apoptosis rate caused by LTA-induced inflammatory Mac-T cells.The results suggest that GPR120 can regulate inflammation by mediating TLR4 and MyD88 expression to inhibit NF-κB/MAPK inflammatory pathway activation and can promote cell proliferation.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between growth mindset and mental health in middle school students,and to explore the intervention effects of growth mindset intervention in different grades and at dif-ferent times after intervention.Methods:Totally 612 middle school students from a certain high school in Xi'an were selected to evaluate their growth mindset and mental health status using the Mental Health Diagnostic Test(MHT)and Implicit Personality Theory Questionnaire(IPT-Q).They were divided into a growth mindset interven-tion group(n=306)and a conventional mental health class group(n=306)using a simple random sampling meth-od.The growth mindset intervention group received an additional 45 minutes of growth mindset class on top of the conventional mental health class.Three factor analysis of variance was used to compare the MHT scores of partici-pants in different grades,groups,and time conditions.Results:There was a negative correlation between IPT-Q scores and MHT scores in middle school students(r=-0.10,P＜0.05).At 4 weeks after intervention,the MHT scores were lower in the growth mindset intervention group than in the conventional mental health class group[(30.8±5.0)vs.(35.9±16.6),P＜0.001].At 4 months after intervention,there was no statistically significant difference in MHT scores between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion:It suggests that growth mindset inter-vention could improve the mental health status of middle school students in the short term.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the diagnostic yield of bronchoscopic rapid on-site evaluation (B-ROSE) in patients with severe invasive bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (IBPA) and provide evidence for starting antifungal treatment before microbiological results were available. METHODS: A prospective cohort study was conducted to select patients with severe pneumonia suspected of IBPA admitted to the respiratory intensive care unit (RICU) in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from June 2014 to June 2022, and those who were primarily infected with other pathogens (such as bacteria, Mycobacterium tuberculosis) at admission were excluded. Whether the antifungal treatment was initiated or not on the basis of the bedside B-ROSE, the B-ROSE was administered as soon as possible within 24 hours after admission to RICU. The current international definition of invasive aspergillosis was used as the gold diagnostic standard, the diagnostic accordance rate, the sensitivity and specificity of B-ROSE were calculated respectively, and the receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) was also plotted, to evaluate the predictive value in diagnosing IBPA. RESULTS: A total of 176 patients with severe pneumonia suspected of IBPA were included in the study. According to international diagnostic standards, there were 81 cases of IBPA and 95 cases of non-IBPA. According to the early diagnosis of B-ROSE, there were 89 cases of IBPA and 87 cases of non-IBPA. The diagnostic accordance rate of B-ROSE was 84.09% (148/176), the area under the ROC curve for B-ROSE in diagnosing severe IBPA was 0.844, the 95% confidence interval (95%CI) was 0.782-0.905, the sensitivity was 87.65%, the specificity was 81.05%, the positive predictive value was 79.78%, the negative predictive value was 88.51%, the rate of underdiagnosis was 12.35% (10/81), and the rate of misdiagnosis was 18.95% (18/95). Compared with the true negative group, the proportion of long-term (≥ 14 days) use of glucocorticoid [70.0% (7/10) vs. 9.1% (7/77), P < 0.01] and the proportion of cases with diabetes [40.0% (4/10) vs. 10.4% (8/77), P < 0.05] were significantly higher in the false negative group (underdiagnosis group). However, B-ROSE of both groups showed mucosal bleeding, congestion and edema [100.0% (10/10) vs. 94.8% (73/77), P > 0.05], indicating that acute mucosal inflammation was non-characteristic. Compared with the true positive group, the proportion of long-term (≥ 14 days) use of glucocorticoid in the false positive group (misdiagnosis group) was significantly reduced [33.3% (6/18) vs. 60.6% (43/71), P < 0.05]. The B-ROSE results showed the proportion of cases with mucosal white spots, black plaques and pseudomembrane was significantly reduced [16.7% (3/18) vs. 52.1% (37/71), P < 0.01] in the misdiagnosed group, which suggest that cases of long-term use of glucocorticoid and cases with B-ROSE showing mucosal white spots, black plaques and pseudomembrane were less likely to be misdiagnosed. The main diseases that were easily misdiagnosed as IBPA included pulmonary tuberculosis (38.9%, 7/18), inflammatory lung adenocarcinoma (27.8%, 5/18) and pulmonary vasculitis (16.7%, 3/18). CONCLUSIONS Before obtaining microbiological evidence, B-ROSE can assist in decision-making of early anti-aspergillus treatment for severe IBPA. This method is prompt, simple, and has high accuracy and reliability. If B-ROSE lacks characteristic manifestations, especially for severe pneumonia in patients with long-term use of glucocorticoid or diabetes, attention should be paid to the underdiagnosis of IBPA. Diseases such as lung tuberculosis, inflammatory lung adenocarcinoma and lung vasculitis should be vigilant against misdiagnosis as IBPA.

Objective:To investigate the influencing factors of endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation (ETI-MV) in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) caused by viral pneumonia, and to provide evidence for individualized use of ETI-MV.Methods:Patients with ARDS due to viral pneumonia admitted to the respiratory intensive care unit (RICU) of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University were retrospectively analyzed from November 2017 to March 2022. The gender, age, concomitant diseases, clinical symptoms and signs, complications, lab results, ARDS severity, infectious virus type, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ), respiratory support methods and prognosis-related variables were collected. Univariate analysis was performed on each factor, and the variables with statistical significance in the univariate analysis were subjected multivariate logistic regression analysis. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) was drawn to evaluate the predictive value of each index for the implementation of ETI-MV.Results:A total of 117 patients were enrolled in the study, including 61 patients in the ETI-MV group, and 3 patients (4.9%), 39 patients (63.9%) and 19 patients (31.1%) with mild, moderate and severe ARDS, respectively. There were 56 patients in non-ETI-MV group, and the mild, moderate and severe ARDS cases were 16 cases (28.6%), 38 cases (67.8%) and 2 cases (3.6%), respectively. There was significant difference between the two groups ( P < 0.05). Univariate analysis showed that during 24 hours admitted to RICU, the levels of interleukin-6 [IL-6 (ng/L): 104.0±90.0 vs. 62.4±76.0], oxygenation index [PaO 2/FiO 2 (mmHg, 1 mmHg≈0.133 kPa): 123.9±30.9 vs. 173.6±28.5], the proportion of cases with pulmonary infiltrating opacity distribution range ≥ 3/4 lung fields [85.3% (52/61) vs. 21.5% (12/56)], APACHE Ⅱ score ≥ 16.5 [67.2% (41/61) vs. 42.9% (24/56)], the rate of nosocomial invasive aspergillus infection [14.8% (9/61) vs. 3.6% (2/56)], the percentage of nosocomial bacterial infection [16.4% (10/61) vs. 3.6% (2/56)], and the lowest CD4 + T lymphocyte count in the course of the disease [cells/mm 3: 192.2±35.8 vs. 215.0±58.3] had significant differences between ETI-MV and non-ETI-MV group (all P < 0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that during 24 hours admitted to RICU the distribution range of pulmonary infiltrating opacity ≥ 3/4 the lung fields [odds ratio ( OR) = 12.527, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) = 3.279-47.859, P < 0.001], APACHE Ⅱ score ≥ 16.5 ( OR = 30.604, 95% CI = 4.318-216.932, P = 0.001), PaO 2/FiO 2 ( OR = 0.948, 95% CI = 0.925-0.972, P < 0.001), CD4 + T lymphocytes cell count ( OR = 0.975, 95% CI = 0.955-0.995, P = 0.015), and nosocomial bacterial infection ( OR = 38.338, 95% CI = 1.638-897.158, P = 0.023) were independent risk factors for ETI-MV. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of ROC showed that PaO 2/FiO 2 had the greatest predictive value for ETI-MV, with AUC of 0.903, sensitivity of 91.1% and specificity of 95.1% in case of cutoff value of 151 mmHg. The AUC of pulmonary infiltrating opacity distribution range was 0.809, the sensitivity of 85.2%, specificity of 78.6% when the cutoff value was ≥ 3/4 lung field. APACHE Ⅱ scores had the lowest predictive value for selecting ETI-MV, with AUC of 0.704, sensitivity of 83.6% and specificity of 57.1% under the cutoff value was 16.5. Conclusions:For patients with ARDS caused by viral pneumonia, PaO 2/FiO 2 is still the classic reference for selecting ETI-MV, however, the distribution range of pulmonary infiltrating opacity and the systemic severity of the disease during 24 hours admitted to the RICU may provide supplemental helpful information to determine whether the patients choose ETI-MV, especially for moderate ARDS.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics, response, and prognosis of splenic diffuse red pulp small B-cell lymphoma (SDRPL) .Methods:Eight cases of SDRPL were diagnosed and treated at Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, between May 2017 and April 2022. Data on the clinical features, laboratory results, bone marrow and spleen biopsy results, response, and prognosis were collected and analyzed.Results:The median age at diagnosis was 54 (42-69) years. Splenomegaly and lymphocytosis were present in all cases, and PET/CT revealed normal to slightly elevated splenic FDG uptake. All cases were in stage Ⅳ, with spleen, peripheral blood, and bone marrow but no proximal lymph nodes involved. The cytoplasm of neoplastic villous cells was abundant, and splenic pathology showed that small homogenous lymphocytes permeated the splenic sinus and splenic cord, and the white pulp atrophied. Immunohistochemistry was not typical, and B-cell markers including CD19, CD20 and CD79α were positive. After a median follow up of 35.5 (4-60) months, 7 cases were alive after splenectomy with or without chemoimmunotherapy. The patient with CCND3 P284A and MYC S146L mutation developed to B-cell prolymphocytic leukemia (B-PLL) 1 month after splenectomy and died at 16 months of follow-up.Conclusion:A rare indolent B-cell lymphoma that primarily affects the elderly, SDRPL. Most patients achieved long-term survival, but the prognosis of patients who progress to B-PLL was poor.

Objective:To investigate the expression of fibroblast growth factor 7 (FGF7) and related inflammatory factors in the serum of patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods:A case control study was conducted. The patients with AECOPD admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from November 2016 to January 2020 were enrolled. The patients were divided into mild group [forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1)/forced vital capacity (FVC) ratio (FEV1/FVC) < 0.70, FEV1 percentage in predicted value (FEV1%) ≥ 80%], moderate group (FEV1/FVC < 0.70, 50% ≤ FEV1% < 80%), and severe group (FEV1/FVC < 0.70, 30% ≤ FEV1% < 50%) based on their lung function test results, with 20 patients in each group, and 20 patients with normal pulmonary function who underwent elective non-thoracic surgery such as gastrointestinal surgery and orthopedics surgery in the same period were selected as controls. The demographic data, FEV1/FVC, FEV1%, FVC, maximum mid-expiratory flow percentage in predicted value (MMEF%), 6-minute walking test (6MWT), and St George Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) score were recorded respectively. Serum levels of FGF7, interleukins (IL-6, IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Pearson correlation was used to analyze the correlation between TNF-α and lung function.Results:Compared with the normal pulmonary function group, the levels of FEV1/FVC, FEV1%, MMEF% and 6MWT in the mild, moderate and severe groups were significantly decreased, and the SGRQ scores were increased, the indicators continued to deteriorate with the aggravation of the disease, the statistical differences were found between severe group and normal pulmonary function group [FEV1/FVC: 0.39±0.09 vs. 0.81±0.04, FEV1%: (38.80±6.28)% vs. (109.58±13.80)%, MMEF%: (0.34±0.14)% vs. (2.69±0.99)%, 6MWT (m): 279.00±41.61 vs. 402.85±53.97, SGRQ scores: 34.95±6.71 vs. 2.60±2.06, all P < 0.05]. Compared with the normal pulmonary function group, the levels of FGF7 in the mild, moderate and severe groups were significantly lowered (ng/L: 6.31±2.65, 6.10±1.39, 6.64±1.77 vs. 8.29±3.51, all P < 0.05), but no significant difference was found among the mild, moderate and severe groups (all P > 0.05). Compared with the normal pulmonary function group, IL-6 and TNF-α levels were significantly increased in the mild, moderate and severe groups, and TNF-α increased with the aggravation of the disease, the statistical difference was found between severe group and normal pulmonary function group (ng/L: 7.42±2.28 vs. 3.83±0.92, P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in IL-1β level between the normal pulmonary function group and the mild, moderate, severe groups. Correlation analysis showed that TNF-α was negatively correlated with FEV1/FVC and FEV1% ( r values were -0.350 and -0.527, respectively, both P < 0.01). Conclusion:In AECOPD patients, serum FGF7 was decreased, while IL-6 and TNF-α were increased; however, with the aggravation of the disease, there was no significant change in the level of FGF7 in the peripheral blood, but the TNF-α level might be increased, accompanied by severe damage of small airway function.

Objective:To explore the pros and cons of sequential high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) and non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) immediately following early extubated patients with severe respiratory failure (SRF) due to acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD), so as to provide evidence for clinical selection of optimal scheme.Methods:Consecutive AECOPD patients admitted to the respiratory intensive care unit (RICU) of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January 2019 to September 2020 were screened for enrollment. Patients were between 40 years old and 85 years old with acute exacerbation of bronchial-pulmonary infection, who received endotracheal intubation mechanical ventilation (ETI-MV) as the initial respiratory support method. The pattern of synchronous intermittent mandatory ventilation (SIMV) was used in the study. The parameters were set as follows: tidal volume (VT) 8 mL/kg, support pressure 10-15 cmH 2O (1 cmH 2O = 0.098 kPa), positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) 4-6 cmH 2O and the ratio of inspiratory to expiratory time 1.5-2.5∶1. Under these conditions, the plateau pressure (Pplat) was maintained less than 30 cmH 2O. The minimum fraction of inspired oxygen was adjusted to keep the pulse oxygen saturation no less than 0.92. When the pulmonary infection control window (PIC window) occurred, the subjects were extubated immediately and randomly divided into two groups, with one group receiving HFNC (called HFNC group), the other group receiving NIPPV (called NIPPV group). Patients with failed sequential HFNC or NIPPV underwent tracheal re-intubation. The rate of tracheal re-intubation within 7 days of extubation, complications (such as nose and face crush injury and gastric distension), in-hospital mortality, duration of ETI before PIC window, length of RICU stay and length of hospital stay were compared, respectively. Results:Forty-four patients were enrolled in the study, 20 in the HFNC group and 24 in the NIPPV group. There was no significant difference in the duration of ETI before PIC window between HFNC and NIPPV groups (hours: 95.9±13.1 vs. 91.8±20.4, P > 0.05). The rate of tracheal re-intubation within 7 days in the HFNC group was significantly higher than that in the NIPPV group [35.0% (7/20) vs. 4.2 % (1/24), P < 0.05]. However, the incidence of complication in the HFNC group was significantly lower than that in the NIPPV group [0% (0/20) vs. 25.0% (6/24), P < 0.05]. Compared with the NIPPV group, the in-hospital mortality in the HFNC group was slightly higher [5.0% (1/20) vs. 4.2% (1/24)], the length of RICU stay (days: 19.5±10.8 vs. 15.5±7.2) and the length of hospital stay (days: 27.4±12.2 vs. 23.3±10.9) were slightly longer, without statistical differences (all P > 0.05). Conclusion:For early extubated patients with SRF due to AECOPD, the compliance of sequential HFNC increased and the complications decreased significantly, but the final effect may be worse than sequential NIPPV.

Objective: To evaluate the outcomes of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) patients who received HLA-matched sibling donor allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (MSD-PBSCT) . Methods: The clinical data of 138 MDS patients received MSD-PBSCT from Sep. 2005 to Dec. 2017 were retrospectively analyzed, and the overall survival (OS) rate, disease-free survival (DFS) rate, relapse rate (RR) , non-relapse mortality (NRM) rate and the related risk factors were explored. Results: ①After a median follow-up of 1 050 (range 4 to 4 988) days, the 3-year OS and DFS rates were (66.6±4.1) % and (63.3±4.1) %, respectively. The 3-year cumulative incidence of RR and NRM rates were (13.9±0.1) % and (22.2±0.1) %, respectively. ②Univariate analysis showed that patients with grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) or hematopoietic cell transplantation comorbidity index (HCT-CI) ≥2 points or patients in very high-risk group of the Revised International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-R) had significantly decreased OS[ (42.9±13.2) %vs (72.9±4.2) %, χ²=8.620, P=0.003; (53.3±7.6) %vs (72.6±4.7) %, χ²=6.681, P=0.010; (53.8±6.8) %vs (76.6±6.2) %vs (73.3±7.7) %, χ²=6.337, P=0.042]. For MDS patients with excess blasts-2 (MDS-EB2) and acute myeloid leukemia patients derived from MDS (MDS-AML) , pre-transplant chemotherapy or hypomethylating agents (HMA) therapy could not improve the OS rate[ (60.4±7.8) %vs (59.2±9.6) %, χ²=0.042, P=0.838]. ③Multivariate analysis indicated that the HCT-CI was an independent risk factor for OS and DFS (P=0.012, HR=2.108, 95%CI 1.174-3.785; P=0.008, HR=2.128, 95%CI 1.219-3.712) . Conclusions HCT-CI was better than the IPSS-R in predicting the outcomes after transplantation. The occurrence of grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ aGVHD is a poor prognostic factor for OS. For patients of MDS-EB2 and MDS-AML, immediate transplantation was recommended instead of receiving pre-transplant chemotherapy or HMA therapy.
