ObjectiveTo compare the differences in sleep structure characteristics between adolescents with depressive disorder and adolescents with bipolar disorder, and to explore the impact of sleep indicators and other factors on the suicide risk of adolescents with affective disorder. MethodsThe medical records of adolescents with depressive disorder (n=97) and bipolar disorder (n=52) who met the International Classification of Diseases, tenth edition (ICD-10) and hospitalized in the Affiliated Brain Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from January 1, 2019 to June 30, 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Data including age, gender, body mass index (BMI), psychiatric diagnosis, the Nurses' Global Assessment of Suicide Risk (NGASR) score and polysomnography (PSG) results of the patients were collected. Then patients were divided into two groups according to NGASR score, scored 0~5 were in the low risk group (n=32) and scored above 5 were in the high risk group (n=117). Meantime, the PSG data of normal adolescents (n=80) in the previous literature were collected as the control group. Thereafter, a multiple linear regression model was established to explore the related factors affecting suicide risk in adolescents with affective disorder. ResultsThe sleep efficiency and the proportion of stage N2 sleep in high risk group were lower than those in low risk group (Z=-2.138, -2.520, P<0.05). The total sleep time, N2 sleep duration and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep time in depression group were less than those in bipolar group (t=-2.822, -3.087, -2.277, P<0.05 or 0.01). The proportion of REM sleep in depression group and bipolar group were lower than those in control group (t=-2.369, -2.069, P<0.05). Linear regression analysis denoted that the factors affecting the suicide risk in adolescents with affective disorder included stage N1 sleep duration (β=0.019, P<0.05), gender (male vs. female, β=-4.051, P<0.01) and psychiatric diagnosis (bipolar disorder vs. depressive disorder, β=-1.429, P<0.05). ConclusionIn contrast to adolescents with bipolar disorder, the sleep structure of adolescents with depressive disorder is characterized by poor sleep continuity and less light sleep. Furthermore, the N1 sleep duration, female gender and diagnosis of depressive disorder are risk factors affecting the suicide in adolescents with affective disorder.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility and efficacy of three mini-incision double eyelid blepharoplasty with concurrent reposition of orbital fat pad to correct sunken upper eyelids.Methods:The data of patients who underwent orbital fat reposition to correct upper eyelid depression during the period from January 2018 to April 2021 in the Medical Plastic and Cosmetic Center of Beijing Tongren Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. During the operation, the central mass of orbital fat and its lateral extension were fully dissociated, and then transferred and fixed inward through three mini-incisions. Postoperative follow-up was performed to observe the improvement of the double eyelid shape and upper eyelid depression, and the patient satisfaction was recorded.Results:A total of 72 patients (140 eyes) were included in this study, including 1 male and 71 females, with an average age of 28 years (19-40 years old), 122 eyes with mild upper eyelid depression and 18 eyes with moderate upper eyelid depression before operation. Postoperative follow-up was 6-24 months, with an average of 11 months. The curvature of the double eyelid after operation was smooth and basically symmetrical. Among the 122 eyes with mild upper eyelid depression before operation, 118 eyes were completely corrected after operation, and 4 eyes were not improved. Of the 18 eyes, 3 eyes were completely corrected after operation, and 15 eyes still had mild upper lid depression. The overall satisfaction rate was 93.1% (67/72), the rate of double eyelid failure was 3.6% (5/140), and no other serious complications were found.Conclusions:Three mini-incision double eyelid blepharoplasty simultaneously with orbital fat reposition can effectively correct mild and moderate sunken upper eyelid deformity. The postoperative double eyelid shape is stable with high satisfaction rate.

Objective:To investigate the combined value of gadolinium ethoxybenzyl diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (Gd-EOB-DTPA) enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in predicting pathological microvascular invasion (pMVI) preoperatively, and to determine the relationship between prediction results and prognosis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients.Methods:A total of 181 newly diagnosed HCC patients were enrolled in this study. Imaging characteristics and the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value of DWI were analyzed. The differences of imaging characteristics and ADC values between different pMVI groups were analyzed.Multivariate logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve were used to analyze the value for pMVI prediction by using significant parameters. The patients were grouped based on MRI predicted MVI (mrMVI), and the relationship between mrMVI and recurrence free survival time (RFS) was analyzed.Results:Fifty-one patients were pMVI positive and 130 patients were pMVI negative. The ADC value in pMVI positive group were (1.10±0.17)×10 -3 mm 2/s, significantly lower than (1.27±0.22)×10 -3 mm 2/s of pEMVI negative group ( P<0.001). The incidence rates of incomplete enhancing "capsule" , non-smooth tumor margin, arterial peritumoral enhancement, mosaic architecture and peritumoral hypointensity on hepatobiliary phase (HBP) in pMVI positive group were significantly higher than those of negative group (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that tumor margin, arterial peritumoral enhancement, peritumoral hypointensity on HBP and ADC value were independently associated with pMVI. ROC analysis showed that the area under curve, sensitivity and specificity of pMVI predicted by combined parameters were 0.830, 76.5% and 81.5%, respectively. The median RFS of mrMVI positive group was 23.6 months, significantly lower than 38.2 months of mrEMVI negative group ( P=0.004). Conclusion:Tumor margin, arterial peritumoral enhancement, peritumoral hypointensity on HBP and ADC value are independent predictors of pMVI in HCC, and mrMVI is related with RFS.

Objective:To assess the optimal cut-off value between early recurrence and late recurrence of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after radiofrequency ablation (RFA), and to construct a nomogram to predict early recurrence.Methods:A total of 119 patients with HCC who recurred after RFA in Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from January 2012 to December 2017 were identified. The optimal cut-off value to distinguish early and late recurrence was determined based on differences in post recurrence survival (PRS) by minimum P-value approach. The clinical and radiographic risk factors for early recurrence were identified by univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis. The predictive nomogram was constructed by these factors and internally validated. Results:The optimal cut-off value to distinguish early recurrence and late recurrence was 12 months after RFA ( P=0.005). The patients were divided into early recurrence group (47 cases) and late recurrence group (72 cases). The lower quartile PRS (Q1-PRS) and lower quartile overall survival (Q1-OS) were 11.1 and 19.1 months in the early recurrence group, which were shorter than 31.6 and 81.0 months in the late recurrence group ( P=0.005 and P<0.001, respectively). The independent risk factors of early recurrence were alpha fetoprotein (AFP) ( OR=8.459, 95% CI: 2.231-32.073), albumin(ALB) ( OR=0.251, 95% CI: 0.047-1.339), number of lesions ( OR=3.842, 95% CI: 1.424-10.365) and peritumoral enhancement ( OR=8.05, 95% CI: 1.23-52.80), which were further incorporated into constructing the predictive nomogram of early recurrence of HCC after RFA. Internal validation results showed the area under the curve, sensitivity, specificity of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve were 0.839, 68.1% and 93.1%, respectively. The calibration curve showed the predicted curve of nomogram was close to the ideal curve. Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed there was no significant difference between the predicted results of nomogram and the actual results ( P=0.424). Conclusions:An interval of 12 months after RFA is the optimal cut-off value for defining early recurrence and late recurrence. The nomogram is integrated by clinical and radiographic features, which can potentially predict early recurrence of HCC after RFA and may offer useful guidance for individual treatment or follow up.

Glutamine synthetase is a key enzyme in plant nitrogen assimilation. To study the structure of wheat glutamine synthetase isoenzymes, GS1, GSr, GSe, GS2 and GS2p of wheat were cloned into pET-21a, and the expression condition was optimized. Although wheat glutamine synthetase isoenzymes had 70%-80% amino acid sequence homology, the isoforms expressed with different characteristics. Induced at 30 °C, the most expression level of GSr, GSe and GS2 was after 3 h, and of GS1 was at the 7 h whereas no GS2p was expressed, and the GS isoenzymes showed different expression level, with the order of GS1 (22%)>GSr (15%)>GS2 (12%)>GSe (5%). GSe expressed as soluble protein, and GS1 expressed mainly as soluble protein whereas GSr and GS2 expressed as insoluble proteins. Induced at 30 °C for 3 h, mRNA transcript levels of GS isoforms were different, with the order of GSr (7.59)>GS2 (1.84)>GS2p (1.66)>GSe (1.46)>GS1 (1.00). The levels of mRNA transcription were not consistent with the level of the protein translation. The analysis of mRNA secondary structure showed the free energy of translation initiation region of glutamine synthetase isoforms was different, with the order of GS1 (14.4)
