With increasing studies researching cognitive function of Chinese patients with first-episode schizophrenia (FES) using MATRICS Consensus Cognitive Battery (MCCB), it is not clear about the level and pattern of cognitive impairment among this population. Aim To provide a meta-analysis systematically analysing studies of neurocognitive function using MCCB in Chinese patients with FES. Methods An independent literature search of both Chinese and English databases up to 13 March 2019 was conducted by two reviewers. Standardised mean difference (SMD) was calculated using the random effects model to evaluate the effect size. Results 56 studies (FES=3167, healthy controls (HC)=3017) were included and analysed. No study was rated as 'high quality' according to Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology. Compared with HCs, Chinese patients with FES showed impairment with large effect size in overall cognition (SMD=-1.60,95% Cl -1.82 to -1.38,厂=67%) and all seven cognitive domains, with the SMD ranging from -0.87 to -1.41. In nine MCCB subtests, patients with FES showed significant difference in Symbol Coding (SMD=-1.90), Trail Making Test (TMT)(SMD=-1.36), Continuous Performance Test-Identical Pairs (SMD=-1.33), Hopkins Verbal Learning Test (SMD=-1.24), Brief Visuospatial Memory Test (SMD=-1.18), Mazes (SMD=-1.16), Category Fluency (SMD=-1.01), Spatial Span (SMD=-0.69) and Mayer-Salovey-Caruso Emotional Intelligence Test (SMD=-0.38). Conclusions Our meta-analysis demonstrates that Chinese patients with FES show neurocognitive deficits across all seven MCCB cognitive domains and all nine subtests, particularly in two neurocognitive domains: speed of processing and attention/vigilance, with the least impairment shown in social cognition. Symbol Coding and TMT may be the most sensitive tests to detect cognitive deficit in Chinese patients with FES.展开更多
The overall purpose of this research is to examine the impact of untreated sedimentation tank sludge water( USTSW) recycle on water quality during treatment of low turbidity water in coagulation—sedimentation process...The overall purpose of this research is to examine the impact of untreated sedimentation tank sludge water( USTSW) recycle on water quality during treatment of low turbidity water in coagulation—sedimentation processes. 950 m L of raw water and different concentrations of 50 m L USTSW are injected into six 1 000 m L beakers without coagulant.The results indicate that USTSW characterized as accumulated suspended solids and organic matter has active ingredients,which possess the equivalent function of coagulant. The optimal blended water turbidity is in the range of 10-20 NTU,within which USTSW recycle achieves the highest save coagulant rate. The mechanism of strengthening coagulation effect when USTSW recycle mainly depends on the chemical effect and physical effect. What is more,through scanning electron microscopy( SEM),it is found that the floc structures with USTSW recycle are more compact than those without USTSW recycle. Besides,the water quality parameters of color,NH3-N,CODMn,UV254,total aluminum,total manganese when USTSW recycle is better than the raw water without recycle,indicating that USTSW recycle can improve water quality with strengthening coagulation effect.展开更多

Physical and mechanical proper...Effects of densification of poplar wood(Populus nigra) impregnated with nano-aluminum oxide(NA) and pre-treated with water vapor for 4 and 6 h were investigated in the present study. Physical and mechanical properties of treated poplar wood were measured according to the ASTM D-143 standard specifications, and then compared with the untreated specimens. Results showed significant improvement in all properties as a result of densification. A 4-h vapor pre-treatment improved effects on both physical and mechanical properties. When the duration of vapor-treatment increased to 6 h, wood polymers degraded to the extent that the improvements due to the vapor pre-treatment decreased substantially, though the final results were still significant improvements compared with the control specimens. High thermal conductivity coefficient of NA slightly but not significantly improved properties. Due to the high spring-back after 15 days,densified poplar is not recommended for applications in which densified wood will be exposed for long periods to high humidity or to direct water.展开更多

This study determined the prevalence and drug resistance patterns of bacterial pathogens isolated from treated and untreated wastewater released from Ayder Referral Hospital in Northern Ethiopia. A cross sectional study design was conducted from September-December, 2015 in wastewater released from Ayder referral hospital. A total of 40 composite samples were aseptically collected, transported and processed for enumeration of indicator organisms, bacteriological identification and susceptibility testing following standard procedure. Data obtained were entered and analyzed using SPSS version 20. Mean heterotrophic plate count, total coliform count, fecal coliform count and E. coli count were found to be 1.6 × 106 CFU/mL, 2.2 × 106 CFU/100 mL, 2.0 × 105 CFU/100 mL and 1.1 × 104 CFU/100 mL from treated wastewater respectively. Among the total samples 134 bacterial isolates were detected and [84 (62.7%)] were from untreated wastewater and [50 (37.3%)] were from treated wastewater. The most frequently isolated bacteria from untreated wastewater samples was Klebsiella spp [14 (16.7%)] followed by S. aureus [13 (15.5%)] and P. aeruginosa [12 (14.3%)], similarly in treated wastewater samples Klebsiella spp [10 (20%)], P. aeruginosa [8 (16%)] and S. aureus [8 (16%)] were frequently detected. The overall multi-drug resistance (MDR) in this study was [79/134 (79.1%)]. MDR from untreated wastewater sample was [64/84 (76.2%)] while from treated wastewater sample was [42/50 (84%)] and shows significant difference with (COR: 1.64, 95% CI: 1.15 - 3.29, P: 0.001). It is concluded that treated hospital wastewater contains large numbers of antibiotic resistant bacteria. Therefore, there should be continuous monitoring and evaluation of the effluent quality of the ponds and chlorination of the final effluent should be developed.展开更多

Early or first-episode psychosis patients can be especially vulnerable to physical health, psychological and social consequences of antipsychotic medication weight gain. The aim of this paper is to review diet and exercise lifestyle interventions employed to address these issues. Method: A review of research evidence on lifestyle interventions (diet and exercise) for individuals with early or first-episode psychosis (2000 to 2020) was undertaken. An internet-based literature search employed Medline, PsycINFO, Embase, PubMed and Web of Science. Results: Nine studies meeting the criteria were identified: comprising of three exercise intervention studies, one diet intervention study, and five combined diet and exercise intervention studies. Only one study used a RCT design with prior power analysis to determine participant numbers, two had a RCT design, two had a comparison group and four had no control group. Overall, these studies show that exercise and diet focused interventions may provide beneficial physical and mental health outcomes, but participant engagement and behaviour change may be difficult to achieve in early or first-episode psychosis due to individual factors associated with the experience of psychosis and medication prescribed, and health service related factors. Conclusion: There is a need for evidence-based lifestyle programmes in early or first-episode psychosis that includes individually targeted evidence based exercise and diet interventions. Further appropriately powered RCTs are required to strengthen the evidence base.展开更多

文摘The widespread emergence of antibiotic resistance among bacterial pathogens has become one of the most serious challenges in Ethiopia. This study determined the prevalence and drug resistance patterns of bacterial pathogens isolated from treated and untreated wastewater released from Ayder Referral Hospital in Northern Ethiopia. A cross sectional study design was conducted from September-December, 2015 in wastewater released from Ayder referral hospital. A total of 40 composite samples were aseptically collected, transported and processed for enumeration of indicator organisms, bacteriological identification and susceptibility testing following standard procedure. Data obtained were entered and analyzed using SPSS version 20. Mean heterotrophic plate count, total coliform count, fecal coliform count and E. coli count were found to be 1.6 × 106 CFU/mL, 2.2 × 106 CFU/100 mL, 2.0 × 105 CFU/100 mL and 1.1 × 104 CFU/100 mL from treated wastewater respectively. Among the total samples 134 bacterial isolates were detected and [84 (62.7%)] were from untreated wastewater and [50 (37.3%)] were from treated wastewater. The most frequently isolated bacteria from untreated wastewater samples was Klebsiella spp [14 (16.7%)] followed by S. aureus [13 (15.5%)] and P. aeruginosa [12 (14.3%)], similarly in treated wastewater samples Klebsiella spp [10 (20%)], P. aeruginosa [8 (16%)] and S. aureus [8 (16%)] were frequently detected. The overall multi-drug resistance (MDR) in this study was [79/134 (79.1%)]. MDR from untreated wastewater sample was [64/84 (76.2%)] while from treated wastewater sample was [42/50 (84%)] and shows significant difference with (COR: 1.64, 95% CI: 1.15 - 3.29, P: 0.001).

文摘[Objectives]The research aimed to explore the effect of narrative therapy on the negative emotion,quality of life,care burden and nursing satisfaction of family caregivers of adolescents with first-episode depression.[Methods]Using convenient sampling method,the family caregivers of the adolescents with first-episode depression hospitalized in the Children and Adolescents Psychology Department of a GradeⅢLevel A hospital in Shiyan City,Hubei Province from July 2021 to April 2022 were selected as the research objects.The coin toss method was used to determine the test group and the control group,with 60 cases in each group.The control group received routine nursing care,and the experimental group implemented narrative therapy on this basis.Self-rating anxiety scale,self-rating depression scale,health status questionnaire(SF-36),and caregiver burden inventory were used to evaluate the anxiety and depression level,quality of life,and care burden level of the caregivers before and after the intervention.The nursing satisfaction questionnaire was used to evaluate the nursing satisfaction to the caregivers after the intervention.[Results]After 8 weeks of intervention,4 cases fell off in the control group and 3 cases fell off in the intervention group.The scores of anxiety and depression in the two groups were lower than those before intervention,and the scores in the test group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The life quality scores of life vitality,emotional function and mental health dimensions were higher than before the intervention,and the scores in the test group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).The total score of care burden and the scores in time dependence,development limitation and physiological dimension of the two groups were lower than those before intervention,but the difference was not statistically significant(P>0.05).[Conclusions]Narrative therapy can effectively alleviate the negative emotions of family caregivers of adolescents with first-episode depression,and improve their quality of life and nursing satisfaction,but not their care burden.
文摘Aims: Life expectancy is reduced by 10 - 20 years in psychotic disorders compared with the general population, largely due to high incidence of physical health disorders: heart attack, stroke, obesity, cardiovascular disease (CVD), and type 2 diabetes. Early or first-episode psychosis patients can be especially vulnerable to physical health, psychological and social consequences of antipsychotic medication weight gain. The aim of this paper is to review diet and exercise lifestyle interventions employed to address these issues. Method: A review of research evidence on lifestyle interventions (diet and exercise) for individuals with early or first-episode psychosis (2000 to 2020) was undertaken. An internet-based literature search employed Medline, PsycINFO, Embase, PubMed and Web of Science. Results: Nine studies meeting the criteria were identified: comprising of three exercise intervention studies, one diet intervention study, and five combined diet and exercise intervention studies. Only one study used a RCT design with prior power analysis to determine participant numbers, two had a RCT design, two had a comparison group and four had no control group. Overall, these studies show that exercise and diet focused interventions may provide beneficial physical and mental health outcomes, but participant engagement and behaviour change may be difficult to achieve in early or first-episode psychosis due to individual factors associated with the experience of psychosis and medication prescribed, and health service related factors. Conclusion: There is a need for evidence-based lifestyle programmes in early or first-episode psychosis that includes individually targeted evidence based exercise and diet interventions. Further appropriately powered RCTs are required to strengthen the evidence base.

文摘Objective:Published studies have found prepulse inhibition(PPI)in schizophrenia is impaired,suggesting PPI may be a biomarker of schizophrenia.We aim to examine whether PPI deficits exist in antipsychotic-na-ve,first-episode schizophrenia,and evaluate the effect size of PPI deficits between patients and healthy controls.Methods:The effect size of PPI deficits was evaluated for PPI%by calculating standard mean differences(SMDs)between patients with antipsychotic-na-ve,first-episode schizophrenia and healthy controls.Results:Twelve studies met the inclusion criteria,consisting390antipsychotic-na-ve,first-episode schizophrenia and406healthy controls.The effect sizes of76dB PPI in60ms and120ms interstimulus interval(ISI)were-0.19and-0.41respectively,and the76dB PPI overall effect size was-0.30.The effect sizes of85/86dB PPI in30ms,60ms and120ms ISI were-0.25,-0.42and-0.59respectively,and the85/86dB PPI overall effect size was-0.46.One study were excluded due to heterogeneity in the85/86dB,120ms ISI group,the pooled effect size of the PPI differences between patient group and health control dropped to-0.42,and the overall effect size changed to-0.39.There were no statistical differences in startle magnitude(overall effect size=-0.18)and habituation%(overall effect size=-0.17)between patients and healthy controls.Conclusions:Antipsychotic-na-ve,first-episode schizophrenia patients exhibit robust and reliable deficits in PPI,85/86dB PPI deficit was more severe than76dB PPI,and85/86dB,60-ms ISI PPI was more likely to be a biomarker for schizophrenia,it suggested that the parameters of PPI are particularly significant to affect the effect size so that should be interpreted with cautions in the future studies.
文摘目的:探讨精神分裂症病人出院1年预后风险列线图模型的构建及验证。方法:回顾性分析2020年1月—2021年6月医院收治的150例精神分裂症病人,使用功能大体评定量表(Global Assessment of Function,GAF)调查其出院1年后预后情况,将其分为发生组(GAF≤60分)及未发生组(GAF>60分),收集其精神分裂治疗前后相关数据,对其进行危险因素分析及风险列线图模型构建,另收取2021年6月—2022年1月医院收治70例精神分裂症病人,将其设为验证组,收集其治疗前后相关数据,对风险列线图模型进行验证。结果:多因素分析显示,两组病人中有精神疾病家族史、PANSS量表以阴性症状为主、精神病未治期较长、慢性起病及首次治疗效果较差为精神分裂症病人出院1年后预后良好的独立危险因素,以此建立风险列线图模型,Logit(p)=1.558×家族史+2.140×PANSS量表+0.626×精神病未治期+1.362×起病情况+2.017×首次治疗效果-11.936。其受试者工作特征(ROC)曲线下面积为0.956,95%CI(0.928,0.985),灵敏度为89.1%,特异度为91.9%,Youden指数为0.810,P<0.001,Hosemer-Lemeshow检验显示χ2=6.874,P=0.550。结论:本研究构建的风险列线图模型可对精神分裂症病人出院1年后预后不良的高风险病人进行早期识别,可为临床上精神分裂症病人个性化治疗护理方案的制定与修改提供参考意见,具一定的早期预警价值。
文摘目的了解精神分裂症患者首次正式开始治疗前的疾病未治疗期间(duration of untreated illness,DUI)和精神病未治疗期间(duration of untreated psychosis,DUP)及其影响因素。方法应用诺丁汉起病症状量表(Nottingham onset schedule,NOS)调查上海市精神卫生中心的精神分裂症患者,共收集117例。同时,应用自编问卷对患者家属进行访谈,调查可能影响患者及时就诊的因素。结果①精神分裂症患者DUI中位数是181天,DUP中位数是84天。②首发非特异性精神症状以失眠和情绪障碍最为常见,出现频度超过50%;首发精神病性症状以幻听和被害妄想最为常见,出现频度达到47%。③影响患者就诊的主要因素是家属不认识精神病和患者不愿接受诊治。④以DUI中位数181天将患者区分为长DUI组和短DUI组,发现:长DUI组中回答家庭成员意见不一致是延误就诊因素的比例显著高于短DUI组(χ2=3.9,P<0.05)。结论精神分裂症患者从发病到开始治疗的疾病未治疗期间较长。影响DUI和DUP的因素是多方面的,值得进一步深入研究。
