RESUMEN
BackgroundIn China, the structure shift from just one-child family to both one-child and more-than-one-child families is happening. Exploring how the sibling relationships effect between adolescent personality impulsivity and aggressivity is of great significance for promoting adolescent mental health as well as maintaining social harmony and stability. ObjectiveTo investigate the effecting path of sibling relationships between personality impulsivity and aggressivity in adolescents, so as to provide references for the prevention of violent and aggressive behavior in adolescents. MethodsFrom February to April, 2023, a total of 1 200 students with sibling relationships from 12 primary and secondary schools in a county of Sichuan province were included by random sampling. Barratt Impulsivity Scale (BIS-11), Chinese Version of Buss & Perry Aggression Questionnaire (AQ-CV), and Sibling Relationship Questionnaire (SRQ) were used for cross-sectional investigation. Pearson Correlation Analysis was used to analyze the correlation between the scores of these scales. Bootstrap method was used to test the effecting path of sibling relationships between personality impulsivity and aggressivity. ResultsThe total score of BIS-11 was positively correlated with that of AQ-CV as well as the scores of conflict and competition dimensions in SRQ (r=0.485、0.276、0.280,P<0.01), while negatively correlated with the score of warmth/intimacy dimension in SRQ (r=-0.383, P<0.01). The total score of AQ-CV was positively correlated with the scores of conflict and competition dimensions in SRQ (r=0.387, 0.340, P<0.01), while negatively correlated with the score of warmth/intimacy dimension in SRQ (r=-0.304, P<0.01). Within SRQ, negative correlations could be observed between the score of warmth/intimacy and scores of conflict and competition (r=-0.307, -0.375, P<0.01), whereas positive correlation could be observed between the score of conflict and that of competition (r=0.267, P<0.01). The total effect of personality impulsivity level on aggressivity level in adolescent was 0.480 (P<0.01). Sibling relationships played a mediating role between personality impulsivity and aggressivity in adolescents. Meanwhile, the indirect effect values of warmth/intimacy, conflict and competition were 0.054, 0.075 and 0.062, with the effect values accounting for 11.21%, 15.70% and 12.93%, respectively. ConclusionThe personality impulsivity of adolescents can directly affect their aggressivity, and sibling relationships may act as an important channel connecting personality impulsivity and aggressivity.

RESUMEN
BackgroundProlonged grief disorder (PGD) has serious impact on the quality of patients' work and life. Previous relevant studies have explored the intervention effect of cognitive behavioral therapy(CBT) on PGD, but their conclusions remain controversial due to differences in frequency, time and content of intervention. ObjectiveTo explore the intervention effects of CBT on the PGD through Meta-analysis, so as to provide references for clinical treatment. MethodsOn October 22, 2022, the database of VIP, China Biomedical Literature Database, Wanfang, CNKI, Embase, Cochrane Library, PubMed and Web of Science were searched systematically, and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of CBT in treating PGD was collected. Outcome indicators include sadness, depression, anxiety and somatization symptoms. RevMan 5.3 was used for Meta-analysis. ResultsA total of 7 articles were included with a total sample size of 528 cases. Meta-analysis results showed that the study group had lower scores than the control group for grief (SMD=-0.78,95% CI:-1.27~-0.29), depression (SMD=-0.45,95% CI:-0.73~-0.17) and anxiety symptom (SMD=-0.38,95% CI:-0.59~-0.18) with statistically significant differences. However, the difference of scores for somatization symptom between two groups was not significant (SMD=-0.01,95% CI:-0.26~0.25). ConclusionCBT may contribute to improving the symptoms of grief, depression and anxiety in PGD patients but unsatisfactory efficacy on somatization symptom.
RESUMEN
BackgroundCompared with adult-onset schizophrenia, patients with adolescent-onset schizophrenia experience a high genetic susceptibility, severe negative symptoms, high recurrence rate, poor prognosis and social function recovery. And clarifying the brain functional alterations in adolescent-onset schizophrenia is of great significance for further elucidating the pathogenesis of the disease and exploring personalized and precise treatment. ObjectiveTo investigate the altered functional and effective connectivity of bilateral precuneus in first-episode patients with adolescent-onset schizophrenia based on resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI), thus providing reliable imaging evidence in guiding the study on mechanism involved in adolescent-onset schizophrenia. MethodsTwenty-one drugnaïve first-episode patients with adolescent-onset schizophrenia who met the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fifth edition (DSM-5) criteria for schizophrenia were enrolled, and another 21 psychiatrially healthy controls matched on age, educational background and gender were concurrently selected. The schizophrenic subjects were evaluated using the Psychotic Symptom Rating Scales (PSYRATS) and Positive and Negative Symptom Scale (PANSS). All participants underwent rs-fMRI scans, and the whole-brain seed-based functional and effective connectivity analyses were conducted in bilateral cuneus region. Then the correlation between functional connectivity strength and clinical symptoms of patients was discussed. ResultsIn terms of functional connectivity, the functional connectivity of bilateral precuneus and left middle temporal gyrus was increased in patient group compared with healthy control group [P<0.01, family-wise error (FWE) correction at cluster level, P<0.05]. In terms of effective connectivity, patient group responded to negative feedback with greater activation of seed region and left middle frontal gyrus than healthy control group. Correlation analysis within patient group denoted that the decreased effective connectivity of bilateral precuneus and left middle frontal gyrus was positively correlated with the total PANSS score (r=0.450, P<0.05). ConclusionThe resting-state functional and effective connectivity of bilateral precuneus is abnormally alerted in drugnaïve first-episode patients with adolescent-onset schizophrenia, and the decreased effective connectivity of bilateral precuneus and left middle frontal gyrus may be related to the development of clinical symptoms.

RESUMEN
BackgroundThe mental health level of the prison police is relatively low, so finding innovative ways to improve the mental health of them is of great significance for the safety of prison supervision and the implementation of peaceful China initiative. ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between perceived social support, perceived stress and psychological resilience with mental health of prison police, and to provide references for improving their mental health. MethodsIn March 2022, 424 policemen working in a male prison in a western province were selected by cluster sampling method, and investigated with the Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS), Chinese Perceived Stress Scale (CPSS), Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) and General Health Questionnaire 20 (GHQ-20), then Process 4.2 was used employed to verify the mediating role of perceived stress as well as the moderating role of psychological resilience in the relationship between perceived social support and mental health. Results①Male subjects scored higher on GHQ-20 than female subjects (t=2.095, P<0.05). ②CPSS score was negatively correlated with PSSS and GHQ-20 scores (r=-0.670, -0.703, P<0.01), and GHQ-20 score showed a positive correlation with PSSS and CD-RISC scores (r=0.580, 0.693, P<0.01). ③Perceived social support positively predict mental health (β=0.154, 95% CI: 0.133~0.175, P<0.01). ④Perceived stress played a mediating role in the relationship between perceived social support and mental health, and the mediation effect size was 0.087, accounting for 88.78% of the total effect (95% CI: 0.064~0.112, P<0.01). ⑤Psychological resilience played a moderating role in the second half (perceived stress→mental health) of the mediating path of "perceived social support→perceived stress→mental health"(β=0.074, 95% CI: 0.046~0.102, P<0.01). ⑥Psychological resilience also regulated the mediation effect of perceived stress on the relationship between perceived social support and mental health [three regression coefficients tested in turn are significant: a=-0.537 (95% CI: -0.594~-0.480, P<0.01), b1=-0.162 (95% CI: -0.197~-0.127, P<0.01), b3=0.074 (95% CI: 0.046~0.102, P<0.01)]. ConclusionPerceived social support of prison police has an impact on their mental health both directly and indirectly through perceived stress. In addition, perceived social support of prison police has a moderated mediation effect on mental health, and it is partially moderated by psychological resilience.[ Funded by General Project of Sichuan Prison Administrative Bureau in 2022]
RESUMEN
BackgroundIn public health emergencies, medical staff undertake many important tasks. Having a good mental health status and capability in popularization of science can improve the work efficiency of medical staff, and thus enhancing the public's trust and support for medical care. ObjectiveTo investigated the anxiety, insomnia and security level of medical staff under the public health emergency, and to explore the correlation between anxiety and capability in popularization of science of them. MethodsFrom June 1 to September 1, 2020, a total of 588 medical staff in Sichuan Province were investigated through the Questionnaire Star platform. The survey included a self-designed general information questionnaire, the Psychological Security-Insecurity Questionnaire (S-I), Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS) and science popularization questionnaire during the COVID-19 epidemic. Pearson correlation analysis was used to examine the correlation among SAS, S-I and AIS scores, as well as the correlation between SAS and the science popularization questionnaire during the COVID-19 epidemic. ResultsDuring the public health emergency, the S-I score of the medical staff was (27.46±9.20), with 21 cases (3.57%) having a low level of security. The SAS score was (44.21±9.57), with 208 cases (35.37%) having anxiety symptoms. The AIS score was (11.40±5.25), with 450 cases (76.53%) suffering from insomnia. Correlation analysis showed that SAS score was negatively correlated with S-I score (r=-0.640, P<0.01), while positively correlated with AIS score (r=0.618, P<0.01). There was a negative correlation between the degree of usage about medical staff's science popularization tool and SAS score (r=-0.501~-0.185, P<0.01). The use of science popularization channels was negatively correlated with anxiety (r=-0.510~-0.232, P<0.05 or 0.01). There was a negative correlation between the level of trust to popularization of science and medical staff anxiety (r=-0.548~-0.338, P<0.01). ConclusionUnder the public health emergency, the detection rates of anxiety symptoms and sleep disorders among medical staff are high, and anxiety is negatively correlated with medical staff's capability in popularization of science.

RESUMEN
ObjectiveTo investigate the mediating role of loneliness and social anxiety in the relationship between basic psychological needs satisfaction and smartphone addiction among high school students, and to provide references for the intervention to smartphone addiction for high school students. MethodsIn April 2022, a total of 14 666 high school students from 5 middle schools in a county of Sichuan Province were included by random sampling method. Basic Psychological Needs Scales (BPNS), the UCLA Loneliness Scale-3 edition (UCLA-3), Interaction Anxiousness Scale (IAS) and the Mobile Phone Addiction Index (MPAI) were used for cross-sectional investigation. Bootstrap method was used to analyze the mediating role of loneliness and social anxiety in the relationship between the basic psychological needs satisfaction and smartphone addiction. Results① In this study, 14 036 valid questionnaires were returned, and 1 752 (12.48%, 95% CI: 0.114~0.136) high school students were found to be addicted to smartphone phone. The BPNS score was negatively correlated with UCLA-3, IAS and MPAI scores (r=-0.771, -0.486, -0.417, P<0.01). And MPAI score was positively correlated with IAS and UCLA-3 scores (r=0.403, 0.424, P<0.01). IAS score was positively correlated with UCLA-3 score (r=0.458, P<0.01). ②The degree of basic psychological needs satisfaction in high school students can directly negatively predict smartphone addiction (β=-0.383, P<0.05), and can also indirectly affect smartphone addiction through loneliness and social anxiety (β=-0.130, P<0.05). ③Loneliness (indirect effect value was -0.145) and social anxiety (indirect effect value was -0.074) partially mediate between the basic psychological needs satisfaction and smartphone addiction. Loneliness-social anxiety also has significant chain mediating effect (indirect effect value was -0.034), which accounted for 8.88%. ConclusionThe basic psychological needs satisfaction can not only directly affect the occurrence of smartphone addiction, but also indirectly affect the occurrence of smartphone addiction through the chain mediation of loneliness and social anxiety.

MethodsThrough the way of electronic questionnaire, questionnaire star as tools, random investigation of college students in a university in Sichuan. Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) and Somatization Symptom Scale (SSS) were used to evaluate their anxiety, depression and somatization symptoms. At the same time, a self-made questionnaire was used to investigate their styles of help seeking, and the relationships between them. ResultsA total of 551 valid questionnaires were collected, including 4.90% of anxiety symptoms, 28.68% of depression and 17.97% of somatization symptoms. In terms of somatization, the detection rate was higher in urban college students than those in rural (23.35% vs. 13.27%, P<0.05), non-medical students was higher than medical students (21.40% vs. 13.89%, P<0.05). Women's SSS score was higher than men's [(26.51 ± 5.44) vs. (25.27 ± 5.78)], urban college students' SSS score were higher than rural [(26.69 ± 5.98) vs. (25.38 ± 5.12)], and non-medical students’ SSS score were higher than medical students [(26.65 ± 5.59) vs. (25.21 ± 5.45)], and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Partial correlation analysis showed that SSS score was positively correlated with SAS score (r=0.110, P=0.010) and negatively correlated with SDS score (r=-0.087, P=0.042). The top three common ways of help-seeking pattern among college students were self-regulation (81.85%), talking to family or friends (70.78%) and offline psychological counseling (28.31%). ConclusionUnder the COVID-19 epidemic, the detection rate of depressive symptoms and somatization symptoms of college students is high. The detection rate of somatization symptoms of female, urban and non-medical college students is high. Self-regulation and talking to family or friends are the main psychological styles of help seeking for college students.

RESUMEN
Objective To analysis the victim's help-seeking behavior of domestic violence. Methods Using a multi-stage sampling strategy,306 victims of domestic violence were randomly selected and face-to-face interviewed. A self-designed help-seeking questionnaire of domestic violence was administered. Results 33.7%victims felt nowhere to seek help. The three leading helpers they seek were the other family member (34.6%),neighbor and friend( 17.0% ) and community office ( 12.5% ) ,and the community office had highest prevalence of effect (71. 1% ). The prevalence of seeking help from other family member and Women's Federation were highest in urban victims (P<0.01) ,and seeking help from community office was highest in rural victims (P<0.01). The three leading helpers were other family member (27.3%) ,community office ( 15.8% ) and neighbor and friend ( 10.9% ) by male victims, and other family member ( 38.0% ), neighbor and friend ( 20.0% ) and community office ( 10.8% ) by female victims. The prevalence of seeking help from neighbor and friend was higher in female than in male ( 20.0% vs 10.9%, x2 = 3. 980, P< 0.05 ). Adult victims seek help from other family member were less than children and the elderly (31.6% vs 42.0% and 46.9%, x2 =5.993, P<0.05),and the elderly seek help from community office were more than adults and children (28.1% vs 12. 1% and 4.0%, x2 =9.930, P<0.01 ). The victims with higher level of education were with higher prevalence of feeling nowhere to seek help (47.8%). Seeking help from other family member and community office were most in victims with lower level of education( 38.5% and 24.0% ,respectively) and were least in victims with higher level of education ( 17.4% and 0,respectively, P < 0.05, P < 0. 01 ). Conclusion Help-seeking behaviors of victims of domestic violence are varied by geographic settings,age,gender and education levels.
RESUMEN
The purpose of the study was to assess the relationship between recent life events, attitudes to domestic violence (DV), and DV behaviors among perpetrators of DV in China. A total of 600 participants were assessed for recent life events, psychological functioning, social support, and attitudes to DV. Results demonstrated that recent negative life events (NLE) and attitudes to DV were predictive factors for DV among perpetrators of DV, after controlling for demographic variables, psychological functioning, and social supports. The findings suggest that recent life events are potential factors contributing to behaviors of DV. The importance of changes of negative attitudes to DV among perpetrators was highly emphasized. Intervention and prevention programs based on psychological functioning and social support in relation to perpetrators of DV may be useful to control DV in China.

Methods:A sample of 439 female offenders experiencing at least one traumatic life event was tested. The authors examined the IES-R-C's retest reliability, internal consistency, discriminative validity and predictive value of the cut-off. Results:The test-retest reliability coefficient was 0.86;The Cronbach's coefficient of the IES-R-C was 0.96;The mean inter-item correlation coefficients ranged from0.42 to 0.60;The correlation coefficient of the three factors with the total scale scores ranged from0.84 to 0.91; The correlation coefficient among the three factors ranged from 0.75 to 0.89; Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and partial PTSD cases indicated significantly higher scores than non-PTSD cases. 34/35 in the IES-R-C total score seemed an appropriate cutoff indicative of high levels of sensitivity (0.86), specificity (0.86), and efficiency (0.86) in the broadly defined PTSD-positive groups (PTSD + partial PTSD). Conclusion: the of IES-R-C is a reliable and valid measure for assessing the posttraumatic stress symptoms in Chinese-speaking sample. The IES-R-C may be a useful self-rating diagnostic instrument particularly for survivors with PTSD symptoms as a clinical concern (PTSD + partial PTSD) by using a 34/35 cutoff in total score.
RESUMEN
Objective: To improve the ultrasonic diagnosis criteria for blood flow in the breast neoplasms. Methods: The features of Doppler imaging in 240 cases of breast neoplasms were analyzed. Results and conclusion: The blood distribution of benign tumor is mainly at 0 Ⅱ level and that of malignant tumor mainly at Ⅲ Ⅳ level. Peak velocity(Vp), mean velocity(Vm), pulsatile index(PI) and resistance index(RI) of malignant tumor are higher than those of benign tumor.
