ABSTRACT
Objectives@#This study aimed to compare the levels of depression, anxiety, and stress, and the coping styles among physicians and nurses in a COVID-19 referral hospital in Manila from June to July 2020.@*Methods@#A cross-sectional study among medical residents and nurses selected via convenience sampling was employed. Data were obtained through COVID Stressors and Stress Reduction Questionnaire, Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale-21, and Filipino Coping Strategies Scale. Descriptive and inferential analysis of data was done. @*Results@#Five hundred seventy-one (571) healthcare workers (total population: 1,650 nurses and physicians) participated in the study, representing 81.6% of the computed sample size of 700 respondents. Among the participants, 60.6 %, 69.0%, 48.9% reported symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress, respectively. Nineteen percent (19%) of nurses reported severe to extremely severe depression, and 42.0% reported severe to extremely severe anxiety. In contrast, 30.8% of residents reported severe to extremely severe depression, and 28.4% conveyed severe to extremely severe anxiety. There was no association observed between perceived levels of stress between the two healthcare professions. There were more mildly to extremely severe anxious healthcare workers in the COVID areas (74.6%) compared to the non-COVID areas (61.2%). Differences in coping styles were observed among the participants’ clinico-demographic characteristics. Top healthcare worker stressors include being negligent and endangering co-workers (88.6%), frequent modification of infection control procedures (87.0%), and discomfort from protective equipment (81.4%). Top stress-reducing factors include provision of food and vitamins (86.7%), sufficient rest (84.2%), and support from higher-ranking colleagues (73.7%). @*Conclusion@#This study has shown that more than half of the healthcare workers reported mild to extreme levels of depression and anxiety, while a little less than half reported mild to extreme levels of stress. The development and implementation of hospital interventions and programs based on the sources of distress and stress-reducing factors is recommended to mitigate the impact of sustained psychological distress on mental health and physical wellbeing of hospital healthcare workers.

ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between stigma and coping styles and social support of parents with ASD， and to provide references for practices of reducing stigma level and taking targeted interventions in this group. MethodsThis study involved parents of children diagnosed with ASD and admitted to the children's health clinic of a tertiary hospital in Urumqi between January 2021 and May 2022. General information questionnaire， Affiliate Stigma Scale （ASS）， Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire （SCSQ） and Social Support Rating Scale （SSRS） were employed to conduct investigation. Pearson correlation analysis was used analyze the correlation between stigma， coping styles and social support. ResultsThe ASS total score of parents of children with ASD was （52.40±11.22）. Correlation analysis results showed that the ASS total score of parents was positively correlated with the score of negative coping dimension in SCSQ （r=0.787， P<0.01）， and negatively correlated with the score of positive coping dimension in SCSQ and SSRS total score （r=-0.565， -0.795， P<0.01）. The result of regression analysis suggested that stigma among parents of children with ASD was affected by coping style and social support （∆R2=0.768， F=114.931， P<0.01）. These two factors could explain 76.80% of the total variance. ConclusionParents of children with ASD have stigma of moderate to high level， and coping styles and social support are two important factors influencing the stigma. ［Funded by Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region Science and Technology Program Resource Sharing Platform Construction Project （number， PT2215）］

Objective:To investigate the correlation between the prognosis of late-onset depression(LOD)in the elderly and lncRNA expression levels and coping styles.Methods:Differential expression of lncRNAs in peripheral blood of LOD 92 patients was detected by a real-time quantitative PCR(qPCR)detection system, and the Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD)and the Trait Coping Style Questionnaire(TCSQ)were used for psychological assessment.Results:Compared with the control group, the expression levels of TCONS_00019174(7.55 vs.4.36), ENST00000566208(6.48 vs.3.26), ENST00000517573(8.33 vs.5.32)and NONHSAT142707(6.78 vs.3.26)in elderly patients of the LOD group were significantly down-regulated( Z=5.09, 5.87, 4.35, 6.44, P<0.05); Compared with the low-expression subgroup, scores of anxiety/somatization[(3.83±1.40) vs.(6.39±2.35)], diurnal variation[(0.22±0.42) vs.(0.83±0.94)], retardation[(5.74±0.96) vs.(6.48±1.28)], hopelessness[(2.78±0.67) vs.(4.52±1.56)]and HAMD[(20.39±1.75) vs.(26.83±4.88)]in the high-expression subgroup were significantly lower( t=-4.50, -2.84, -2.22, -4.90, -5.96, P<0.05). The ΔCT value of TCONS_00019174 was negatively correlated with the reduction rates of anxiety/somatization, diurnal variation, retardation, sleep disturbance, hopelessness and HAMD( r=-0.40-0.66, P<0.05). The ΔCT value of ENST00000566208 was negatively correlated with the reduction rates of anxiety/somatization, sleep disturbance, hopelessness and HAMD( r=-0.47-0.62, P<0.01). The ΔCT values of ENST00000517573, NONHSAT034045 and NONHSAT142707 were negatively correlated with the reduction rates of retardation, sleep disturbance, hopelessness and HAMD( r=-0.39-0.76, P<0.05). The positive coping style was positively correlated with the reduction rates of HAMD, anxiety/somatization, retardation, sleep disturbance and hopelessness( r=0.38-0.55), while the negative coping style was negatively correlated with the reduction rates of HAMD, anxiety/somatization, sleep disturbance and hopelessness( r=-0.39-0.67, P<0.05). When TCONS_00019174, ENST00000566208, NONHSAT034045, NONHSAT142707, positive coping and negative coping were taken into the regression equation as variables for HAMD reduction, it was found that they were able to explain 32.4% of the variance for the reduction rate of the total HAMD score( t=-8.713, -3.584, -3.864, -2.257, 5.675, -2.357, P<0.05). Conclusions:TCONS_00019174, ENST00000566208, NONHSAT034045, NONHSAT142707, positive coping style and negative coping style are predictors of the prognosis of LOD in the elderly.

Logistic regression analysis showed college degree ( OR = 0.297, 95% CI 0.116 - 0.763, P<0.05), very low birth weight ( OR = 2.491, 95% CI 1.027 - 6.044, P<0.05), sense of disease uncertainty ( OR = 1.038, 95% CI 1.012 - 1.066, P<0.05), negative coping style ( OR = 1.871, 95% CI 1.127 - 3.108, P<0.05) were risk factors of PTSD in fathers with premature infants. The nomogram model was established basing on the results of the Logistic regression analysis, and the ROC curve proved (AUC = 0.751) the model having a good discrimination.The Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test ( P = 0.974) and the calibration plot demonstrated that the prediction values tends to coincide with the actual monitoring values. Conclusions:A higher incidence of PTSD was observed in fathers with hospitalized premature infant. It was related to education level, the infants′s birth weight, disease uncertainty and coping style. Therefore, the nurses should give information support and psychological guidance according to the individual situation of the infants′ father to reduce the incidence of PTSD.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors of non-suicidal self-injury （NSSI） behaviors among middle school students in Jiangmen. MethodsA total of 1 220 middle school students in Jiangmen were selected for the study through stratified random sampling from November to December 2020. The self-compiled general demographic questionnaire， Coping Style Scale for Middle School Students， Olweus Bully/Victim Questionnaire （BVQ）， Social Support Scale for Adolescents， and Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression Scale （CES-D） were used for the assessment. Then binary Logistic regression analysis was performed to screen the factors influencing NSSI behaviors in students. ResultsA total of 204 middle school students （16.72%） were found to be engaged in NSSI behaviors， of whom 67 were male and 137 were female. There were statistically significant differences between the NSSI group and the non-NSSI group in terms of gender， school period， lodging， peer relationship and academic performance （χ2=22.162， 7.247， 6.541， 45.787， 25.097， P<0.05 or 0.01）. Compared with the non-NSSI group， the NSSI group scored higher on CES-D （t=-14.240） and BVQ （t=-5.952）， lower on Social Support Scale for Adolescents （t=9.238）. Within the Coping Style Scale for Middle School Students， NSSI group had lower problem-focused coping score （t=7.148） and higher emotion-focused coping score （t=-7.038） than those of non-NSSI group. The detection rates of school bullying， verbal and relational bullying were higher in NSSI group compared with non-NSSI group （χ2=34.215， 29.785，16.465）. The differences were statistically significant （P<0.01）. Binary Logistic regression showed that depression （OR=1.090， P<0.01） and school bullying （OR=1.492， P<0.05） entered into the regression model. ConclusionThe situation of NSSI behaviors of middle school students in Jiangmen is serious， and depression and school bullying are risk factors affecting NSSI behaviors in students.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo explore the effect of emotional catharsis on the mental health status， coping style and satisfaction with the intervention among adolescents in Nanchong in the post-pandemic period. MethodsCompletely random sampling method was used to recruit 390 adolescents from 2 general secondary schools， 2 county secondary schools and 2 universities in Nanchong from January 2021 to April 2022. The subjects were divided into study group （n=195） and control group （n=195） by random number table method. The study group received emotional catharsis intervention. The control group received self-regulation and relaxation without any other intervention. Interventions for both groups lasted for 3 months. Before and after the intervention， the mental health status and coping style of the adolescents were assessed using the Symptom Checklist 90 （SCL-90） and the Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire （SCSQ）. Also， the participants rated the satisfaction with the intervention via self-made satisfaction questionnaire after the intervention. ResultsAfter intervention， the total SCL-90 score of study group was lower than that of control group （t=68.312， P<0.01）. In terms of SCSQ， study group scored higher on the positive coping dimension （t=30.488， P<0.01）， and lower on negative coping dimension （t=46.562， P<0.01） than those of control group. There were 190 （98.96%） cases satisfied with the intervention in the study group and 175 （89.74%） cases in the control group， the difference of intervention satisfaction rate between the two groups was statistically significant （χ²=15.321， P<0.01）. ConclusionIn the post-pandemic period， emotional catharsis may be conducive to improve the mental health status and coping style among adolescents in Nanchong， and adolescents have high levels of satisfaction with the intervention.
