ABSTRACT
Objective@#To gain a better understanding of the emotional and behavioral problems associated determinants of primary and middle school students from Guangdong Province during the COVID-19 pandemic, so as to provide a basis for developing targeted intervention strategies.@*Methods@#Using the method of convenience sampling, an online questionnaire survey was carried out among primary and middle school students from Guangzhou, Zhanjiang and Zhongshan from March to April 2020. The emotional and behavioral problems of primary and middle school students were assessed using the Conners Parental Symptoms Questionnaire(PSQ), and a self compiled questionnaire was used to collect basic information related to the primary and middle school students and the influencing factors of emotional and behavioral problems. A total of 7 755 valid questionnaires were retrieved and statistically analyzed using the chi square test and multivariate Logistic regression.@*Results@#The detection rate of emotional and behavioral problems among children and adolescents aged 6 to 17-years-old in Guangdong Province was 14.8%; that was 21.0%, 14.4%, 7.3 %, and 10.1% in lower primary school students, upper primary school students, junior high school students, and high school students, respectively. The detection rate of the psychosomatic and hyperactivity index in boys was higher than that observed in girls, and the detection rate of anxiety in boys was lower than that observed in girls( P <0.05). There were statistically significant differences in emotional and behavioral problems in children in different grades( P <0.05). The results of the regression analysis showed that male students were at risk of psychosomatic ( OR= 1.37 , 95%CI =1.04-1.82) and hyperactivity disorders( OR=1.58, 95%CI =1.21-2.06), whereas the male gender was a protective factor for anxiety( OR=0.50, 95%CI =0.39-0.64). Grades were identified as the influencing factors of all of the factors related to emotional and behavioral problems. Students who reported excessive screen time and insufficient sleep were more likely to experience emotional and behavioral problems.@*Conclusion@#The detection rate of emotional and behavioral problems among primary and middle school students in Guangdong Province during the COVID-19 epidemic was high, which was associated with sex, grade, screen time and sleep. It is necessary to develop and implement targeted intervention measures.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the MRI features of soft tissue hemangiomas. Methods The size, margin, morphology and signal pattern of the lesions in MRI findings in 18 patients with soft tissue hemangiomas proved pathologically were retrospectively analyzed. Results Of the 18 cases, there were 8 cases of angiocavernoma (1 0-4 0 cm in size) with clear border, homogeneous high signal in the lesion and low signal ring on the border, 5 cases of intramuscular hemangioma, presented as irregular mass with mixed signals mainly composed of high signal on T2WI, 3 cases of angioma arteriale racemosu with tortuous dilation of blood vessel and amyotrophy as its MRI feature, and 2 cases of venous angioma with thick wall of vein but without supplying arteries. Conclusion Soft tissue hemangioma can usually be diagnosed correctly according to MRI characteristics and clinical data.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the manifestation of HCC on superparamagnetic iron oxide(SPIO)-enhanced MRI in rats and clarify its pathologic basis in hope of the application of SPIO-enhanced MRI in estimation of histological grading in HCC.Methods HCC was induced chronically with 1 ml of 2% DEN solution once a day in 80 rats for 14 weeks,and another 10 rats served as normal controls.All rats received dynamic MR examinations on week 16,18,20,21,22,23,24,25.MR imaging was performed before and after SPIO injection using SE-T1WI,FMPSPGR-T1WI,GRE-T2WI,FSE-PDWI,FSE-T2WI, and the relative parameters were obtained.Rats were killed as soon as MRI finished.The tumors were observed grossly and the parts matched with the lesions on MRI were cut into pieces,stained with HE and PerIs,for pathologic examination.Results Kupffer cell number in HCCs was significantly smaller than that in normal liver tissues(P
