Authors: Cui Li-Jun , Cai Li-Li , Na Wan-Qiu , Jia Rui-Long , Zhu Jie-Lin , Pan Xin 
Published: November 2024

BACKGROUND
The pathogenesis of cognitive impairment in schizophrenia (SCZ) remains unclear. Accumulating studies showed that inflammatory-immune dysregulation and altered brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) levels play a crucial role in the psychopathology of SCZ. However, their association with cognitive dysfunction in first-episode SCZ patients has not been thoroughly investigated.
AIM
To explore the interaction effects between cognitive function and inflammatory cytokines and BDNF in first-episode SCZ.
METHODS
The current study is a cross-sectional case-control investigation that recruited 84 patients with first-episode SCZ (SCZ group) and 80 healthy controls (HCs group) at the Huzhou Third Municipal Hospital between August 2021 and September 2023. ELISA was employed to measure the serum levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, and BDNF. The Chinese brief cognitive test (C-BCT) and the positive and negative syndrome scales were measured the severity of cognitive impairment and psychiatric symptoms.
RESULTS
Compared to the HC group, the SCZ group exhibited elevated IL-1β and IL-6 levels, decreased BDNF levels, and reduced C-BCT scores (all P < 0.001). In SCZ, BDNF was negatively correlated with IL-6 (r = -0.324, P < 0.05). Information processing speed was negatively correlated with IL-6 (r = -0.315, P < 0.05) and positively with BDNF (r = 0.290, P < 0.05); attention, working memory, comprehensive ability, and executive function were negatively correlated with IL-1β and IL-6 (all P < 0.05) and positively with BDNF (all P < 0.05). Multiple regression analysis showed IL-6 influenced C-BCT dimensions (β = -0.218 to -0.327, all P < 0.05); attention and executive ability were influenced by IL-1β (β = -0.199 to -0.261, all P < 0.05) ; comprehensive executive ability was influenced by BDNF (β = 0.209, P < 0.05) .
CONCLUSION
Our findings suggested that interrelationships between immune dysfunction and neurotrophic deficiency might underlie the pathological mechanisms of cognitive impairments in first-episode SCZ patients.

Authors: Li Bo , Li Cha , Zhong Xian-Jiang , Xu Xiang-Rong 
Published: November 2024

BACKGROUND
The incidence of chronic wounds is rising due to an aging population and lifestyle changes in our country. In addition, as the disease spectrum evolves, chronic wounds have become common clinical issues that seriously threaten health and impose significant social and economic burdens.
AIM
To investigate how depression, anxiety, peripheral blood inflammatory factors, and stress levels affect therapeutic outcomes in patients with chronic wounds.
METHODS
Retrospectively collected clinical data from 110 patients with chronic wounds treated at Changde Hospital, Xiangya School of Medicine, Central South University (The First People’s Hospital of Changde City) between January 2021 and December 2023, categorizing them into effective and ineffective groups based on treatment effects. Differences between both groups were analyzed using univariate analysis, independent risk factors identified via logistic regression, and their predictive value assessed through receiver operating characteristic analysis.
RESULTS
Following treatment, 95 cases were classified as the effective group (cured or improved), while 15 cases with improvement formed the ineffective group. Significant differences between both groups were noted in wound area, infection status, daily bed time, Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAMA) scores, Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) scores, and levels of interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and superoxide dismutase (P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis identified a wound area ≥ 7 cm2, HAMA ≥ 9 scores, and HAMD ≥ 8 scores were independent risk factors for ineffective treatment in patients with chronic wounds (P < 0.05). The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis revealed that the area under the curve for ineffective treatment based on wound area, HAMA, and HAMD was 0.767, 0.805, and 0.768 respectively.
CONCLUSION
Wound size, anxiety, and depression are significant factors influencing the therapeutic outcomes in patients with chronic wounds that require careful attention, alongside the development of appropriate strategies.

Authors: Shi Wen-Juan , Zhou Jian , Xu Qi-Liang , Jiang Yi , Dai Qiang 
Published: November 2024

BACKGROUND
Improving mental health is crucial for patients who require wound treatment.
AIM
To analyze the effects of solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) combined with vacuum sealing drainage on the psychological health of patients undergoing wound treatment, providing a basis for selecting wound treatment protocols.
METHODS
A total of 102 patients undergoing wound treatment were included, with the study period from March 2020 to March 2024. Sex was not a factor, and patients were randomly assigned to two groups of 51 cases each. The control group received negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT), while the experimental group received NPWT plus SFBT. The recovery of wounds, granulation tissue scores, and psychological health levels were compared between the two groups. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS Windows software version 26.0 and GraphPad Prism 8.0.
RESULTS
Post-treatment, the levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, white blood cell count, and lactate dehydrogenase in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The two groups had no significant difference in granulation tissue scores (P < 0.05). The psychological health level in the experimental group was significantly higher than in the control group (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
The combination of SFBT and NPWT accelerates wound healing, promotes granulation tissue growth, and improves psychological well-being, making it a valuable approach for clinical application.
Mindfulness-based stress reduction training and supplemented Jinshui Liujun decoction promote recovery in patients with non-small cell lung cancer
Authors: Liu Dai-Wei , Zhou Xue-An , Wu Xiao-Yuan , Wang Yong-Xia , Fan Jie-Ting , Li Zhan-Lin 
Published: November 2024

BACKGROUND
Conventional chemotherapy (CC) administered to patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) often causes adverse effects, such as cardiopulmonary dysfunction and immune system imbalance. Patients may experience anxiety and depression during the perioperative period due to various factors, such as treatment costs and cancer recurrence risks, thereby compromising the overall quality of life. Consequently, we hypothesized that integrating mindfulness-based stress reduction training (MSRT) with Jinshui Liujun decoction may mitigate negative emotions and promote recovery in patients with NSCLC.
AIM
To explore the effects of MSRT and Jinshui Liujun decoction on the immune function and emotional state of NSCLC patients.
METHODS
A retrospective clinical study was conducted involving 92 patients with stage IIIb-IV NSCLC; 35 patients in the control group (CG) received CC therapy (combination of pemetrexed and carboplatin), and 57 patients in the treatment group (TG) received MSRT-assisted flavored Jinshui Liujun decoction (FJLD) in addition to CC. We evaluated the survival time, Karnofsky performance status, treatment efficacy, traditional Chinese medicine syndrome score, immune function, negative emotional level, and adverse reactions of the CG and TG.
RESULTS
Median progression-free survival, Karnofsky performance status, and clinical efficacy of the TG were superior to those of the CG (P < 0.05). Symptoms of cough, weakness, bloody sputum, shortness of breath, and chest pain significantly decreased in the TG compared to that in the CG (P < 0.05). In the TG, MSRT + FJLD treatment increased the numbers of CD3+ and CD4+ immune cells, effectively reduced the number of CD8+ cells, and enhanced the CD4+/CD8+ ratio, thereby restoring the immune function of patients. In the TG, the self-rating anxiety scale and self-rating depression scale scores decreased significantly. There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the CG and TG (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSION
MSRT + FJLD proved to be an effective treatment for patients with NSCLC.

Authors: Yang Ying , Lu Shou-Rong , Xu Qiao , Yu Jie , Wang Zhuo , Zhang Bing-Shan , Hong Kan 
Published: November 2024

BACKGROUND
Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in elderly individuals is a transitional stage between normal cognition and dementia. Understanding the risk factors for MCI and identifying those at high risk are extremely important for the elderly population.
AIM
To analyze the risk factors for MCI in the elderly population and construct a clinical prediction model.
METHODS
Total 295 elderly individuals presenting with memory loss diagnosed at Wuxi People's Hospital between March 2021 and March 2024 were included. Comprehensive demographic, clinical, and serological data were collected for analysis. Participants were categorized into either an MCI group or a normal group based on their performance on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale. An elaborate clinical predictive model was developed to predict the likelihood of MCI in stroke patients; its accuracy was evaluated using area under curve values and calibration curves.
RESULTS
The results of the study showed that old age, hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, smoking, high-salt diet, high-cholesterol diet, decreased red blood count, increased neutrophil lymphocyte ratio and increased low-density lipoprotein cholesterol were risk factors for the onset of MCI, with A high vitamin diet and elevated high-density lipoprotein cholesterol being protective factors. In addition, the prediction model constructed in this study exhibits good degrees of differentiation and calibration.
CONCLUSION
The risk factors for MCI are diverse. Early identification of individuals at high risk of MCI can better intervene and improve their quality of life of MCI patients.

Authors: Yang Wei , Lian Kun , Cheng Yu-Qi , Xu Xiu-Feng , Duan Xin-Cen , You Xu 
Published: November 2024

BACKGROUND
Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) is common among adolescents and frequently co-occurs with depression. Understanding the distinct patterns of NSSI behaviors, along with their associated risk and protective factors, is crucial for developing effective interventions.
AIM
To classify NSSI behaviors and examine interactions between risk and resilience factors in Chinese adolescents.
METHODS
A cross-sectional study involving 3967 Chinese students (51.7% female, mean age 13.58 ± 2.24 years) who completed questionnaires on parenting styles, bullying, childhood maltreatment, depression, resilience, and NSSI. Latent profile analysis (LPA) was used to identify NSSI subtypes, and network analysis explored interactions between risk and resilience factors.
RESULTS
Three NSSI subtypes were identified: NSSI with depression (18.8%), NSSI without depression (12.3%), and neither (68.9%). Bullying was the central risk factor across subtypes, while emotional control and family support were key protective factors. Statistical analyses showed significant differences between groups (P < 0.001).
CONCLUSION
This study identified three NSSI subtypes among Chinese adolescents. Bullying emerged as a central risk factor, while emotional control and family support were key protective factors. Targeting these areas may help reduce NSSI behaviors in this population.
Association of premature birth and maternal education level on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in children: A meta-analysis
Authors: Zhao Yin-Kai , Li Meng , Shi Ting-Ting , Feng Miao-Miao , Hu Lu-Lu 
Published: November 2024

BACKGROUND
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a prevalent neurodevelopmental disorder in childhood. There is growing evidence that both preterm birth and maternal education levels substantially affect the likelihood of ADHD in children. However, there are limited systematic reviews and meta-analyses examining these associations.
AIM
To systematically review and conduct a meta-analysis on the association of preterm birth and maternal education level on the risk of ADHD in children.
METHODS
We conducted a comprehensive literature search across MEDLINE (PubMed), Web of Science, Embase, and the Cochrane Library, including studies published up to June 17, 2024. Data synthesis was performed using random-effect models, and the quality of studies was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale.
RESULTS
This study included twelve studies, which revealed a significant association between premature delivery and an increased risk of ADHD in children [odds ratio (OR) = 2.76, 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.52-3.04, P < 0.001, I² = 1.9%). Conversely, higher maternal education levels were significantly associated with a reduced risk of ADHD in children (OR = 0.59, 95%CI: 0.48-0.73, P < 0.001, I² = 47.1%). Subgroup analysis further indicated that maternal education levels significantly influenced ADHD risk, particularly in studies conducted in China (OR = 0.59, 95%CI: 0.46-0.75, P < 0.001, I² = 81.2%), while no significant association was observed in studies from other regions (OR = 1.25, 95%CI: 0.66-2.40, P = 0.495, I² = 92.3%). The sensitivity analysis confirmed the robustness of our findings, showing no significant publication bias.
CONCLUSION
This study found that preterm birth significantly increases the risk of ADHD in children, while a higher maternal education level serves as a protective factor against ADHD. To reduce the incidence of ADHD in children, public health policies should focus on early intervention for preterm infants and improving maternal education levels.

Toezicht op kwaliteitszorg besturen. Het verband tussen inspecteursoordelen en sturingsstijlen in het onderwijs
Dit artikel richt zich op toezicht op kwaliteitsmanagement van Raden van Bestuur in de publieke sector. Het onderzoek is uitgevoerd in de onderwijssector en is gebaseerd op kwalitatief en kwantitatief onderzoek. Het onderzoek beschrijft de nieuwe kwaliteitsmanagementbeoordeling voor schoolbesturen door de Inspectie van het Onderwijs. Het artikel analyseert ook het kwaliteitsmanagement en de sturingsstijlen van schoolbesturen. Het blijkt dat schoolbesturen in Nederland de voorkeur geven aan een ‘ondersteunende’ en ‘begeleidende’ sturingsstijl. Het lijkt erop dat een ‘begeleidende’ stijl beter aansluit bij de beoordelingscriteria van de Inspectie; schoolbesturen met die stijl krijgen een positiever oordeel van de Inspectie. Een focusgroep van inspecteurs van de Inspectie van het Onderwijs voegt hieraan toe dat een ‘ondersteunende’ sturingsstijl minder of niet effectief is omdat deze te veel leunt op de autonomie en het functioneren van schooldirecteuren.
