ABSTRACT
Objective@#To analyze the longitudinal association between mobile phone dependence and depressive symptoms in college students, so as to provide a theoretical basis for psychological health education among college students.@*Methods@#From November 2021 to June 2023, 2 515 first year students from 2 universities in Yunnan Province were surveyed with a questionnaire by a cluster random sampling method, including baseline survey (November 2021, T1) and three follow up visits (June 2022, T2; November 2022, T3; June 2023, T4). The Self rating Questionnaire for Adolescent Problematic Mobile Phone Use and the Depression Anxiety Stress Scales-21 (DASS-21) were used to evaluate mobile phone dependence and depressive symptoms of college students. The χ 2 test was used to analyze the difference in depressive symptoms among different demographic groups, and a generalized estimation equation model was established to analyze the association between mobile phone dependence symptoms and depressive symptoms.@*Results@#The detection rates of depressive symptoms among university students in Yunnan Province at time points T1, T2, T3, and T4 were 23.02%, 33.36%, 34.79% and 35.51%, respectively. There were statistically significant differences in the detection rates of depressive symptoms among college students with different sacademic burden (T1, T2, T3, T4), different number of close friends (T1, T2, T3), as well as their father s educational level (T1), mothers educational level (T2, T4), gender (T4), major (T3, T4), education (T2, T3, T4), family residency (T1, T2), and family economic conditions (T1, T2, T4) ( χ 2= 59.68 , 49.38, 16.70, 39.31; 55.35, 26.01, 16.69; 10.22; 14.87, 11.51; 14.90; 27.81, 50.28; 9.75, 7.42, 24.76; 6.06, 4.47 ; 15.88, 14.58, 15.85, P < 0.05 ). After controlling for demographic variables and confounding factors in the generalized estimation equation model, mobile phone dependence ( β =0.11), withdrawal symptoms of mobile phone dependence ( β =0.14), and the physical and mental effects of mobile phone dependence ( β =0.14) were all positively correlated with depressive symptoms ( P <0.01). Further gender analysis showed that depressive symptoms in both boys ( β =0.13, 0.13, 0.18) and girls ( β =0.10, 0.13, 0.13 ) were associated with mobile phone dependence, withdrawal symptoms of mobile phone dependence and the physical and mental effects of mobile phone dependence ( P <0.01).@*Conclusions@#Depressive symptoms of college students are positively correlated with mobile phone dependence, and family economic conditions, academic burden and number of close friends are factors that continued to affect depressive symptoms. College students should be guided to pay attention to the impact of excessive use of mobile phones on their physical and mental health, use mobile phones reasonably to reduce the incidence of depressive symptoms among college students.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study effect of positive liver soup on serum leptin (LEP), adiponectin (ADP) and insulin resistance (IR) in patients with hepatitis B cirrhosis.Methods 68 cases of hepatitis B patients with cirrhosis according to randomized divided into the control group (34 cases) and treatment group (34 cases).Oral treatment administered to the control group (Inosine Tablets and vitamin C),treatment group in the control group based on liver soup treatment, treatment for 3 months, serum leptin (LEP),adiponectin (ADP) and insulin resistance (IR) index before and after treatment were detected.Results Before treatment, there was no significant difference between ADP and LEP in the control group and the treatment group.After 3 months of treatment, there was no significant difference between ADP and LEP level in control group, while the level of ADP and LEP in treatment group were significantly decreased (P<0.05), and were significantly lower than that in control group (P<0.05).There was no significant difference in FPG, fasting insulin level and IRS index between the control group and the treatment group before treatment.After 3 months of treatment, the control group FPG, fasting insulin level and IRS index were not significantly different.FPG, fasting insulin and IRS index in the treatment group were significantly decreased (P<0.05), and were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Positive liver soup can reduce serum LEP, ADP level, and improve IR in treatment of hepatitis B liver cirrhosis.
