ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the relation among self-esteem, psychological flexibility and mental health in medical students, and to provide scientific reference for mental health education for medical students.Methods:A total of 788 medical students selected from a medical university in Chongqing City were investigated with the symptom checklist 90 (SCL-90), self-esteem scale (SES), acceptance and action questionnaire-Ⅱ (AAQ-Ⅱ), and cognitive fusion questionnaire-fusion (CFQ-F). SPSS 22.0 software was used for statistical analysis. T test, ANOVA, correlation analysis and tests for mediation effects were conducted. Results:There were significant differences in self-esteem and mental health level among medical students in gender and different grades ( t=-2.55, P<0.05; F=6.53, P<0.05). Mental health, self-esteem and psychological flexibility of medical students were correlated in pairs ( r=-0.528-0.694, P<0.01). Psychological flexibility played a partial mediation role between self-esteem and mental health of medical students, and the mediating effect accounted for 60.03% of the total effect. Conclusion:Self-esteem can directly predict the mental health of medical students, and can also indirectly affect mental health through psychological flexibility. Medical universities should carry out psychological education and promotion work with pertinence.

ABSTRACT

Autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis caused by CERS3 mutations is extremely rare in clinical practice. We recently identified a family of autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis and performed multigene exome sequencing for hereditary skin diseases to identify causative genes. Mutation analysis revealed compound heterozygous mutations of c.746A>G(from the mother) and exon12 deletion(from the father)in CERS3 were detected in the proband, which were verified by Sanger sequencing and co-segregated with the ichthyosis phenotype in the proband and her parents. These mutations were both reported for the first time. For the treatment, the proband received an oral acitretin capsules of 20 mg once daily. After 3-month follow up, the patient's lesion improved significantly.

ABSTRACT

Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) are derived from stem cells isolated from bone marrow and have the potential for multidirectional differentiation and self-renewal. Under certain conditions, BMSCs can be induced to differentiate into osteoblast (OB), chondrocyte, adipocyte, fibroblast, etc. BMSCs play an important role in maintaining the stability of bone structure and balancing bone metabolism. Promoting the proliferation of BMSCs and inducing their differentiation into OB of great significance for the clinical prevention and treatment of osteoporosis, bone defects, fracture healing, and other diseases. Because the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs are complex processes controlled by multiple genes and regulated by multiple signal transduction pathways, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) happens to have the advantages of multi-bioactive component, multi-target, and multi-pathway synergism, which can affect the proliferation and differentiation of BMSCs through multiple channels and induce the proliferation of BMSCs. The transcription and expression of genes related to osteogenesis can be enhanced to promote the differentiation of BMSCs into OB, so as to achieve the purpose of preventing and treating osteoporosis, bone defects, and other bone diseases. Based on the literature on the intervention of TCM monomers and compounds in the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs, this study reviewed TCM monomers and compounds in promoting the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs by regulating secreted glycoprotein (Wnt), neurogenic locus notch homolog protein (Notch), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) /protein kinase B (Akt), bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)/Smad, Janus kinase (JAK)/signal transducer and activator of transcription protein (STAT), osteoprotegerin (OPG)/receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B (RANK)/RANK ligand (RANKL), and other signaling pathways to provide new ideas for the research and clinical application of Chinese medicine in the prevention and treatment of orthopedic diseases.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy and safety of aerosol inhalation of polycolistin B in the treatment of severe pneumonia combined with mechanical ventilation, and to provide a reference of real-world data for clinical drug therapy. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 87 patients with severe pneumonia combined with mechanical ventilation at the First Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University from January 2021 to February 2023. According to route of administration, all patients were divided into combined group (24 cases, receiving aerosol YXH2021ZX013) inhibition of polycolistin B combined with intravenous dripping) and routine group (63 cases, intravenous dripping of polycolistin B alone). The differences in efficacy (mortality,clinical response rate and bacterial clearance rate)and safety (elevated serum creatinine, bronchospasm and skin pigmentation) were compared between two groups; the influential factors of primary outcome index as mortality were analyzed through univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression analysis. RESULTS In terms of efficacy, there were no statistical differences in mortality(37.50% vs. 41.27%, P=0.749), clinical response rate (54.17% vs. 55.56%, P=0.907) and bacterial clearance rate (45.83% vs. 44.44%, P=0.907) between the two groups. In terms of safety, the incidence of bronchospasm in the combined group was significantly higher than that of the routine group (12.50% vs. 0, P=0.028), but the differences in incidence of elevated serum creatinine and skin pigmentation between two groups were not statistically significant (P>0.05). Univariate analysis showed that the moralities were higher in the case of infected with Acinetobacter baumannii, Klebsiella pneumoniae and combined use of quinolones (P<0.05); multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that infection with A. baumannii (OR=3.36, P=0.014) and combined use of quinolones (OR=3.54, P=0.013) were independently associated with mortality (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS For severe pneumonia patients with mechanical ventilation, intravenous dripping of polycolistin B combined with aerosol inhalation does not show superior efficacy compared with intravenous dipping of polycolistin B alone, but significantly increases the incidence of bronchospasm. Infection with A. baumannii and combined use of quinolones are independent risk factors for the increase of mortality.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the factors affecting the management of medical devices in the COVID-19 pandemic, and to provide guidance for the management of medical devices in public health emergencies.Methods:A total of 184 hospitals caring COVID-19 patients in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai, Anhui and Shandong were selected, and clinical engineers were randomly sampled. A self-compiled questionnaire was used to conduct an online survey on factors affecting medical device management during the COVID-19 pandemic from August to December 2021.The index system of influencing factors of medical device management during the COVID-19 pandemic was determined through an exploratory factor analysis, and then the structural equation model was used to verify the rationality and scientificity of the index system, while the relative weight method was used to calculate the weight of the index system.Results:277 valid questionnaires were recovered. Through the exploratory factor analysis, an index system of influencing factors of medical device management was established, which consisted of such level-indexes as the human factor, device factor, material factor, method factor, and environment factor, as well as 17 level-2 indexes. The fitness-indexes of the second-order structural equation model were finally fitted as follows: the chi-square to freedom ratio was 2.606, the approximate root mean square error was 0.076, and the value of value-added adaptation index, non-standard adaptation index and comparative adaptation index were 0.921, 0.903 and 0.920, respectively. The weights of the method factor, human factor, device factor, material factor and environment factor of the level-1 indexes were 0.216, 0.191, 0.175, 0.274 and 0.144, respectively. Such factors as manpower, regulations and institutional processes, and information technology ranked top three among the 17 level-2 indexes, which were 0.090, 0.082 and 0.080 respectively.Conclusions:The influencing factor model of medical device management during the COVID-19 pandemic in this study is ideal; human factors and method factors are the influencing factors deserving high priority in medical device management during the COVID-19 pandemic. Ensuring sufficient human resources, improving laws, regulations and processes, as well as enhancing information management level are breakthroughs expected in medical device management.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the expression level of hsa-miR-422a in hypertrophic scars and to identify the target genes of hsa-miR-422a along with their biological functions using bioinformatics approaches.Methods:From June 2020 to December 2020, tissue samples of 3 hypertrophic scar and 3 normal skin were collected from patients (3 males, 3 females, aged 20-42 years) in Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Shanghai Ninth People′s Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine. Primary fibroblasts were isolated and cultured. Real-time quantitative PCR was performed to quantify the expression of hsa-miR-422a. To construct a ceRNA network, starbase and Target Scandata bases were utilized to predict genes as well as long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) that may sponge hsa-miR-422a. GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses were conducted on the target genes of hsa-miR-422a; protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks were constructed to identify the hub genes whose functions were predicted by functional enrichment analyses. The expression of hub genes was validated through real-time quantitative PCR in hypertrophic scars.Results:The expression of hsa-miR-422a was significantly lower in the hypertrophic scar tissue samples and fibroblasts compared to that in the normal skin ( P<0.05). 133 target genes as well as 1033 lncRNAs were predicted by starBase and TargetScandata bases and used to construct an hsa-miR-422a-centered ceRNA network. PPI networks of the target genes revealed 10 hub genes, including MAPK1, GRB2, and IGF1R, which were discovered to be related to protein serine/threonine/tyrosine kinase activity, ubiquitin protein ligase binding, fibroblast growth factor receptor signaling pathway, muscle cell proliferation, and many others; besides, they may be involved in FoxO, mTOR, Toll-like receptor, Ras, MAPK, PI3K-Akt signaling pathways and signaling pathways regulating pluripotency of stem cells. Three hub genes (MAPK1, GRB2, and IGF1R) were significantly upregulated in hypertrophic scars ( P<0.05). Conclusions:hsa-miR-422a is significantly downregulated in the hypertrophic scars and may target hub genes such as MAPK1 in ceRNA networks, ultimately modulating hypertrophic scar formation.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To observe any effect of supplementing conventional rehabilitation training with repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation (LDH).Methods:Seventy-two LDH patients were randomly divided into an rTMS group ( n=24), a training group ( n=24), and a combined group ( n=24). The rTMS group received 2Hz rTMS at an intensity of 80% resting motor threshold with a total of 1000 pulses, the training group was given Mackenzie therapy and lumbar core muscle stability training, while the combined group was provided with both. Each group was treated once a day, 6 times a week for 8 weeks. The participants rated their pain using a visual analog scale (VAS), and the Oswestry dysfunction index (ODI) was also used to evaluate the degree of pain and dysfunction in all three groups before and right after the treatment, as well as 8 weeks later. After the treatment, its therapeutic effect was evaluated using the improved Macnab standard. Each patient was followed up for 12 months and any recurrence was recorded. Results:Before treatment there was no significant difference in average VAS ratings or ODI scores among the three groups. Afterward, pain and dysfunction were relieved significantly in all three groups. Compared with the rTMS group, the average VAS rating in the training group was significantly higher and the average ODI score was significantly lower after the treatment and during the follow-up. Moreover, the average VAS rating and ODI score of the combined group were significantly lower than those in the other two groups after the treatment and during follow-up. The total effectiveness rate in the rTMS group was assessed as 62.5% compared with 95.8% in the training group and 100% in the combined group-a significant difference for the rTMS group. Follow-up showed that the recurrence rates of the rTMS group, training group and combined group were 37.5%, 25% and 8.3%, respectively-a significant difference in the case of the combined group.Conclusion:rTMS combined with rehabilitation training can relieve pain, improve lumbar function and reduce the recurrence of LDH.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate frailty in older patients with comorbidities and explore related risk factors.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted with an enrollment of 746 patients aged 65 years or older with comorbidities in the Wanshoulu Road area of Beijing from April 2019 to December 2020.A total of 617 patients with comorbidities were finally included, aged(85.6±4.8)years, including 358 women(58.0%); According to the FRAIL scale, 617 patients with comorbidities were divided into a frail group(156 cases, 25.3%)and a non-frail group(461 cases, 74.7%). Demographic data and information on comorbidities were collected.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses of risk factors were conducted.Results:Among 617 patients with comorbidities, the common chronic diseases in descending order were hypertension(497 cases, 80.6%), coronary heart disease(375 cases, 60.8%), osteoporosis(357 cases, 57.9%), osteoarthritis(281 cases, 45.5%), type 2 diabetes(211 cases, 34.2%), stroke and/or transient ischemic attack(193 cases, 31.3%), chronic lung disease(144 cases, 23.3%), tumor(133 cases, 21.6%), chronic kidney disease(92 cases, 14.9%), and heart failure(58 cases, 9.4%). Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that age, type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease, heart failure, chronic lung disease, stroke/transient ischemic attack, cancer and osteoarthritis were influencing factors for frailty( P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age, type 2 diabetes, heart failure, chronic lung disease, cancer and osteoarthritis were risk factors for frailty( OR=1.076, 1.806, 3.275, 3.371, 1.640, 2.227, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Old age, type 2 diabetes, heart failure, chronic lung disease, tumor and osteoarthritis are closely related to frailty in elderly patients with comorbidities.Proactive and effective prevention and intervention should be instituted to target risk factors for frailty to reduce the occurrence of adverse outcomes.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To prepare cell membrane-coated nanovesicles with targeted delivery of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) agonist, and to explore the effect and mechanism of inducing the polarization of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) and treating osteosarcoma.Methods:TLR4 agonist loaded nanovesicles were prepared by polycarbonate membrane extruders. The morphology and size of nanovesicles were detected by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and particle size analyzer, and the drug loading performance of the nanovesicles to TLR4 agonist was investigated. TLR4 agonist loaded nanovesicles were co-incubated with macrophages in vitro, and the targeting ability of nanovesicles to macrophages and its role in regulating the function of macrophages were detected by confocal fluorescence microscopy. In vitro experiments, a cell co-culture system was established. After the upper layer macrophages were treated by the control group, the TLR4 agonist group and the TLR4 agonist loaded nanovesicle group, the lower layer osteosarcoma cells were collected for CCK-8 and cloning formation experiments to evaluate their effects on the proliferation and migration of osteosarcoma cells. In vivo experiments, an osteosarcoma subcutaneous graft tumor model was established, and mice were randomly divided into the control group, the TLR4 agonist group, and the TLR4 agonist loaded nanovesicle group. After the treatment by caudal vein, the tumor targeting ability of nanovesicles in vivo was explored through the in vivo imaging system, and the volume of tumor tissue was continuously detected. The subcutaneous tumors were stained to detect macrophage-related markers, and their effect on the polarization of macrophages was evaluated. The TUNEL fluorescence of tumor tissues was further detected.Results:TEM showed the round shape of TLR4 agonist loaded nanovesicle and the size was about 200 nm. The co-incubation of 0.05 mg TLR4 agonist with 0.1 mg nanovesicles was the best condition for the preparation of drug-loaded nanovesicles. The drug loading efficiency was about 35% and the drug loading content was about 0.11 mg/mg. The membrane-coated nanovesicles could efficiently load and deliver TLR4 agonist. TLR4 agonist loaded nanovesicles were labeled with DiD red fluorescent dye, and then the labeled nanovesicles were co-incubated with macrophages. It was found by confocal fluorescence microscopy that DiD labeled TLR4 agonist loaded nanovesicles significantly accumulated in macrophages, and the fluorescence of M1-type macrophage marker (iNOS) was significantly enhanced, which could induce M1 polarization of macrophages. In vitro experiments, it was found that the number of osteosarcoma cells in the TLR4 agonist loaded nanovesicle group was significantly reduced under the light microscope, and the cell morphology was wrinkled and rounded. CCK-8 and cloning formation experiments showed that the proliferation and migration ability of osteosarcoma cells in the TLR4 agonist loaded nanovesicle group was significantly reduced compared with the control group and the TLR4 agonist group. A subcutaneous graft tumor model was established. In vivo imaging experiments showed that TLR4 agonist loaded nanovesicles locally accumulated in tumor tissues in vivo, but were not distributed in other organs. The growth of tumor tissue was significantly inhibited in the TLR4 agonist loaded nanovesicle group. Moreover, the fluorescence of M1-type macrophage marker (iNOS) was significantly enhanced (relative fluorescence intensity: 3.27±0.19), while the fluorescence of M2-type macrophage marker (CD163) was significantly decreased (relative fluorescence intensity: 0.14±0.04). TUNEL fluorescence staining showed that the apoptosis level of osteosarcoma cells was significantly increased (relative fluorescence intensity: 9.53±0.21).Conclusion:Membrane-coated nanovesicles could targeted deliver TLR4 agonist to osteosarcoma, induce TAMspolarization, remodel tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment, promote cell apoptosis, and effectively kill osteosarcoma.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the risk factors of recurrence after resection of thigh soft tissue malignant tumors and the evaluation of the postoperative lower limb function.Methods:A total of 211 patients who underwent thigh soft tissue malignant tumor resection in the Department of Orthopaedics of the second affiliated Hospital of Medical College of Zhejiang University from May 2011 to May 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, including 117 males and 94 females, aged 53 (43, 65) years. There were 59 cases of atypical/well-differentiated liposarcoma, 30 cases of other types of liposarcoma, 33 cases of malignant fibrous histiocytoma, 19 cases of fibrosarcoma, 12 cases of rhabdomyosarcoma, 12 cases of leiomyosarcoma, 9 cases of synovial sarcoma, and 37 cases of others. The tumor involvement of muscle, bone, blood vessel, nerve tissue and intermuscular compartment, postoperative Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) functional score and recurrence were recorded. The relationship between anatomical structure and postoperative recurrence was analyzed by Cox logistic regression to determine risk factors; the cumulative recurrence rate of different compartment groups (medial compartment, anterior compartment, and posterior compartment) were compared; The Box plot was used to compare the postoperative function of patients with resection of different anatomical structures (e.g., vastus lateralis, biceps femoris, femur, etc.).Results:A total of 34 out of 211 patients relapsed, with a recurrence rate of 16.1%. The recurrence time ranged from 2.6 months to 91.6 months after operation, with a median recurrence time of 37.0 (18.2, 52.8) months. Three independent risk factors were found to be associated with recurrence, namely: pathological grade [ HR=3.86, 95% CI(1.75, 8.51)], involvement of vastus intermedius [ HR=3.05, 95% CI(1.53, 6.06)], and involvement of vastus medialis [ HR=3.17, 95% CI(1.56, 6.41)]. The recurrence rate of patients with anterior chamber tumor resection was 35.3%, which was higher than that of patients without tumor resection (16.2%), and the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.020). There was no significant difference in recurrence rate between patients with medial chamber tumor resection and patients without tumor resection ( P>0.05). The recurrence rate of patients with posterior compartment tumor resection was 12.3%, which was lower than that of unresectable patients (37.6%), and the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.002).The postoperative MSTS score of 167 patients averaged 26±3.2 points (9-30 points). After intraoperative resection of part of the femur, vastus intermedius, vastus medialis, and rectus femoris, the patient's function was relatively poor [corresponding median MSTS score: 25 (23, 28), 26 (24 28), 26 (24,28), 26(24, 27)]. Conclusion:The risk factors for local recurrence after resection of thigh soft tissue malignant tumors include: pathological grade of the tumor, and whether the vastus intermedius or vastus medialis is involved. Anterior compartment tumors have a higher recurrence rate after surgery. If the tumor involves the above-mentioned anatomical structures, more attention should be paid to the risk of local recurrence after surgery.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the surgical method and clinical effect of O-arm navigation mini-open burring for osteoid osteoma.Methods:Eighteen patients with osteoid osteoma were treated with O-arm guided grinding drill from June 2021 to May 2022, including 15 males and 3 females, the age was (18.4 ±10.9) years (range 2 to 44 years), and the course of disease ranged from 1 week to 3 years (mean 14.2 months). The lesions sites included 6 cases of proximal femur, 3 cases of distal femur, 4 cases of proximal tibia, 1 case of distal tibia, 2 cases of proximal fibula and 1 case of distal and proximal humerus. During the operation, the O-arm navigation was used to determine the location of the focus, the muscle and soft tissue was peeled off to the bone surface through a 1-4 cm small incision, the channel retractor was placed, and the burr was registered as a navigation recognition device to gradually remove the bone on the surface of the tumor nest, and the tumor nest was scraped with a curette for pathological examination; according to the navigation image, the focus was enlarged removed with burr and the grinding range was confirmed by the O-arm X-ray machine before the end of the operation. The patients were followed up for 6 to 15 months (mean 9.5 months). CT scans were performed before and after surgery for imaging comparison in order to figure out whether it had residual lesions or recurrence. The visual analogue score (VAS) of pain was used as a parameter for evaluating the clinical efficacy.Results:The operation time of 18 cases was 40-175 min, with an average of 89.3 min. The time required to establish navigation image was 18.0 ±4.1 min (range 13 ~ 22 min). The length of the incision was 2.7±1.1 cm (range 1-4 cm). All patients achieved complete curettage of the lesions, and osteoid osteoma was confirmed by pathology after operation. All the patients could move to the ground 24 hours after operation, and the pain was significantly relieved from 3 to 7 d after operation, and the pain almost disappeared 3 months after operation. The VAS score of 18 cases was 5.33±1.24 before surgery, 2.79±1.32 on the 3rd day, 1.86±1.21 on the 7th day, 0.86±0.93 on the 1st month, 0.33±0.48 on the 3rd month, and 0.09±0.29 on the 6th month after operation, and the difference was statistically significant ( F=58.50, P<0.001). There were no serious complications during and after operation, and the success rate of treatment (no recurrence of symptoms, no residual recurrence of imaging lesions, no serious complications after operation) was 100%. Conclusion:Treatment of osteoid osteoma with mini-open excision using burrs under the navigation of O-arm is a simple, safe, minimally invasive and efficient technique. Intraoperative precise positioning and the use of burr with navigation to remove a larger area than the tumor nest are the keys to successful treatment.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo investigate the value of percutaneous and intravenous contrast-enhanced ultrasound(P-Ⅳ-CEUS) in sentinel lymph nodes(SLNs) after resection of early-stage primary breast cancer. MethodsA retrospective analysis was done on the clinical and imaging data of 42 early breast cancer patients. Following primary tumor resection, all these patients underwent reoperation in our hospital. SLNs were examined by preoperative P-Ⅳ-CEUS and intraoperative sentinel lymph node biopsy(SLNB) was performed by using Methylene blue as a tracer. Then we analyzed the detection and false-negative rate in CEUS and SLNB respectively. By using the surgical pathological results as the gold standard, the diagnostic efficacy of CEUS for SLNs was explored. ResultsThe detection rate and false negative rate of SLNs in percutaneous contrast-enhanced ultrasound (P-CEUS) were 92.9% (39/42) and 7.1% (3/42), respectively. The detection rate in methylene blue staining was 100% (41/41) and one patient underwent neoadjuvant therapy due to biopsy-confirmed metastasis. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and accuracy of P-Ⅳ-CEUS were 66.7% (2/3), 100% (37/37), 100% (2/2), 97.3% (36/37) and 97.4% (38/39), respectively. ConclusionsP-Ⅳ-CEUS after resection of early-stage primary breast cancer can accurately detect SLNs and characterize their status, which is a reliable clinical basis for reducing invasive SLNB.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To reevaluate systematic reviews/meta-analysis of efficacy and safety of tolvaptan for hyponatremia. METHODS Retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, CBM, PubMed, Embase and the Cochrane Library database, systematic reviews/meta-analysis about tolvaptan for the treatment of hyponatremia were included from the inception to June 15, 2022. After screening literature and extracting data, the PRISMA statement, AMSTAR 2 scale and GRADE method were used to evaluate the reporting quality, methodological quality and evidence quality of the included literature, respectively. RESULTS A total of 6 articles were included, of which 1 was systematic review and 5 were meta-analysis, including 56 outcome indicators. All of the 6 studies had PRISMA scores ranging from 15.0 to 20.5, and the quality of them was moderate. Results of the AMSTAR 2 scale showed that the methodological quality of 5 literatures were very low, and the quality of 1 literature was low. The quality of GRADE evidence showed that there were 6 moderate-quality indicators, 13 low-quality indicators, 35 very low-quality indicators, and 2 indicators that could not be assessed due to missing data. The main factors causing degradation were limitations, inconsistency, imprecision and publication bias. In terms of efficacy, tolvaptan could effectively increase the level of serum sodium, increase urine volume, reduce body weight, reduce abdominal circumference, relieve edema, and reduce alaninetransaminase level. In terms of safety, the incidence of total adverse drug reaction induced by tolvaptan was controversial; it may increase the risk of dry mouth, thirst, frequent urination or excessive correction of serum sodium. CONCLUSIONS Tolvaptan has great efficacy in the treatment of hyponatremia, but serum sodium overcorrection should be avoided in terms of safety. Relevant systematic reviews/meta-analysis have shortcomings of low reporting quality, methodological quality and evidence quality, which may reduce the reliability of the results, so the results should be treated with caution.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the morphology and immunohistochemical (IHC) expression of pseudostratified ependymal tubules in ovarian mature teratoma (MT). Methods: Five cases of ovarian MT with pseudostratified ependymal tubules were collected from Shenzhen Hospital(Futian) of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine and the Eighth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from March 2019 to March 2022. In addition, 15 cases of ovarian MT with monolayer ependymal epithelium from Shenzhen Hospital (Futian) of Guangzhou University of Chinese medicine and seven cases of immature teratoma (IMT) from Hainan Provincial People's Hospital from March 2019 to March 2022 were collected as control. The morphologic characteristics and immunophenotypes of pseudostratified ependymal tubules, monolayer ependymal epithelium, and primitive neural epithelial tubules were observed and compared by H&E stain and IHC expression pattern of genes related to the differentiation status of neuroepithelium, namely SALL4, Glypican3, nestin, SOX2, Foxj1, and Ki-67. Results: Mean age of the five patients of ovarian MT with pseudostratified ependymal tubules was 26 years (range from 19 to 31 years). Two tumors were located in the left ovary and three in the right. All five cases were excised, and clinical follow-up was available (mean follow-up 1.5 years; range 0.5 to 3 years). No recurrence was noted in any cases. The pseudostratified ependymal tubules of ovarian MT, which were lined with columnar or oval epithelia up to 4-6 layers, were morphologically similar to the primitive neuroepithelial tubules of IMT and different from monolayer ependymal epithelium of ovarian MT. By immunohistochemistry, SALL4 and Glypican3 were negative, Foxj1 was positive and Ki-67 index was lower in the pseudostratified ependymal tubules and the monolayer ependymal epithelium of ovarian MT. However, the primitive neuroepithelial tubules of IMT showed variably expression of SALL4 and Glypican3, were negative for Foxj1 and high Ki-67 index. All the above three groups expressed nestin and SOX2. Conclusions: The pseudostratified ependymal tubules of ovarian MT, which have morphological similarities to the primitive neuroepithelial tubules of IMT, are similar to the monolayer ependymal epithelia of the MT in immunophenotype. IHC assessment of Foxj1 and Ki-67 is helpful to differentiate the pseudostratified ependymal tubules of ovarian MT from the primitive neuroepithelial tubules of IMT.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES@#To investigate the association between maternal job burnout and adolescent depression and the mediating effect of maternal depression and parenting style.@*METHODS@#A cross-sectional study was conducted. The cluster random sampling method was used to select 2 572 adolescents from 7 middle schools in Shanghai, China, from April to May, 2021. A survey was performed for these adolescents and their mothers. The research tools included a general information questionnaire, Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey, Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale, short-form of Egna Minnen av Barndoms Uppfostran, and Children's Depression Inventory. A structural equation model was established, and the Bootstrap method was used to investigate the mediating effect.@*RESULTS@#The detection rate of depressive symptoms was 12.71% (327/2 572) among the adolescents. The scores of maternal job burnout, maternal depression, and negative parenting style were positively correlated with the score of adolescent depression (P<0.05), and the score of positive parenting style was negatively correlated with the score of adolescent depression (P<0.05). Maternal depression and parenting style played a mediating role between maternal job burnout and adolescent depression, including the individual mediating effect of maternal depression, the individual mediating effect of positive parenting style, and the chain mediating effect of maternal depression-negative/positive parenting style.@*CONCLUSIONS@#Maternal job burnout may affect adolescent depression through the mediating effect of depression, parenting style, and depression-parenting style, suggesting that the symptoms of adolescent depression can be reduced by alleviating maternal job burnout, improving maternal depression, increasing positive parenting behaviors, and reducing negative parenting behaviors.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES@#To study the influence of family structure on depression and anxiety symptoms in adolescents and its mechanism.@*METHODS@#The cluster sampling method was used to select the students from seven middle schools in Shanghai, China. An online questionnaire survey was conducted using a self-made general status questionnaire, Childhood Trauma Questionnaire, Children's Depression Inventory, and Screen for Child Anxiety Related Emotional Disorders. The methods including one-way analysis of variance, chi-square test, binary logistic regression analysis, and mediating effect analysis were used to evaluate depression and anxiety symptoms in adolescents and the difference in childhood trauma and its mediating effect.@*RESULTS@#Compared with the adolescents from nuclear families, the adolescents from three-generation lineal families had a lower risk of depression symptoms (OR=0.794, 95%CI: 0.649-0.972, P<0.05), while those from host families had a higher risk of depression symptoms (OR=4.548, 95%CI: 1.113-18.580, P<0.05). The adolescents from inter-generational families and host families had a significantly higher score on the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire subscale of emotional neglect (P<0.05). Emotional neglect played a mediating role in the influence of inter-generational families and host families on depression symptoms in adolescents.@*CONCLUSIONS@#Parents and grandparents have a certain positive effect in family structures. Separation from parents may make adolescents perceive more emotional neglect, which may increase the occurrence of depression symptoms.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To analyze the causes, management and prevention of complications after micro-incision percutaneous repair of acute Achilles tendon rupture.@*METHODS@#A retrospective study indentyfied 279 patients with acute Achilles tendon rupture who underwent a mini-invasive procedure using the micro-incision percutaneous Achilles tendon suture system(MIPAS) from August 2008 to November 2019, including 269 males and 10 female;96 cases on the right side and 183 cases on the left side;aged from 18 to 64 years old with an average of (36.9±11.4 )years old. Surgery was performed 0.5 to 7 days with an average of(2.7±0.9 )days after injury. The incision-related complications, re-rupture, sural nerve injury, deep vein thrombosis, Achilles tendon adhesion, local pain, and ankle stiffness within 18 months after surgery were recorded, as well as the corresponding management and outcome, the causes and prevention measures were analyzed.@*RESULTS@#No superficial or deep infection was found in all patients, symptomatic Achilles tendon adhesion and ankle stiffness were not observed, delayed suture foreign-body reactions occurred in 2 cases (0.7%), re-rupture in 5 cases (1.8%), sural nerve injury in 3 cases (1.1%), 21 cases(7.5%) with skin invagination at puncture site, 2 cases (0.7%) with symptomatic vein thrombosis, and 45 cases (16.1%) of transient posterior medial malleolus pain. After individualized treatment, the function was good. American Orthopeadic Foot & Ankle Sciety(AOFAS) score was 93 to 100 with an average of(98.9±5.4) scores.@*CONCLUSION@#Despite the occurrence of unique complications with MIPAS, it shows low functionally-related complications rates, such as incision-related complications, re-rupture, sural nerve injury, deep vein thrombosis and ankle stiffness.
