The representation of bipolar disorder in society via newspapers, films/TV series, conferences, and celebrity self-disclosures is considered to have multiple impacts. People living with bipolar disorder have also reported a perceived public stigma of bipolar disorder that has both specific features and characteristics of general mental illness.

Tectoridin, widely extracted and separated from the rhizome of

Maxim, is extensively reported to have affluent bioactivity, but rarely reported to have anti-inflammatory effects. In this study, we aim to investigate the anti-inflammatory effects and the underlying mechanisms of tectoridin.

Here, RAW264.7 macrophages were stimulated with Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for the inflammation model

. Experimental animals received tectoridin and Dexamethasone (DEX) before LPS injection for endotoxic shock mouse model

. The pro-inflammatory mediators and cytokines in the cell supernatant and serum were detected by ELISA kits. The tissue damages were assessed by biochemical indexes and H&E staining. Immunohistochemistry and Western blot were performed for the detection of proteins.

Our data showed that tectoridin attenuated the LPS-up-regulated nitric oxide (NO), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and interleukin-18 (IL-18) from macrophages and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α); (IL-6) and (IL-1β) in the serum levels. Besides, our histopathological study showed that the damages caused by LPS in the lung, liver, and kidney tissues were decreased. Furthermore, our results demonstrated that tectoridin inhibited the activation of TLR4-NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling proved by immunohistochemistry assay and Western blot.

Taken all together, tectoridin might have the potential ability of anti-inflammatory effects and the possible mechanism may be relevant to its inhibition of TLR4-NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling.

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is common and often has sub-optimal response to treatment. Difficult-to-treat depression (DTD) is a new concept that describes 'depression that continues to cause significant burden despite usual treatment efforts'.

To identify patients with likely DTD in UK secondary care and examine demographic, disease and treatment data as compared with 'non-DTD' MDD patients.

Anonymised electronic health records (EHRs) of five specialist mental health National Health Service (NHS) Trusts in the United Kingdom were analysed using a natural language processing model. Data on disease characteristics, comorbidities and treatment histories were extracted from structured fields and using natural language algorithms from unstructured fields. Patients with MDD aged ⩾18 years were included in the analysis; those with presumed DTD were identified on the basis of MDD history (duration and recurrence) and number of treatments prescribed.

In a sample of 28,184 patients with MDD, 19% met criteria for DTD. Compared to the non-DTD group, patients with DTD were more likely to have severe depression, suicidal ideation, and comorbid psychiatric and/or physical illness, as well as higher rates of hospitalisation. They were also more likely to be in receipt of unemployment and sickness/disability benefits. More intensive treatment strategies were used in the DTD group, including higher rates of combination therapy, augmentation, psychotherapy and electroconvulsive therapy.

This study demonstrates the feasibility of identifying patients with probable DTD from EHRs and highlights the increased burden associated with MDD in these patients.

We demonstrate the use of bubble wrap to teach direct fluorescence assay for the diagnosis of herpes simplex virus or varicella zoster virus infections.Multidentate chelation effect can be used to activate the ultralong room-temperature phosphorescence and stabilize the triplet excitons. The as-synthesized cadmium(II) based complexes further exhibit thermo- and excitation-dependent persistent luminescence as potential for optical logic gate.

Urban and rural areas have been experiencing major demographic and structural changes, characterized by an aging population in rural areas and a growth of cities in number and size. However, it is poorly researched how children's physical activity and screen time developed in urban and rural areas. To address this deficit, we investigated physical activity and screen-time trends in Germany's pediatric population across four urbanicity levels (rural, small town, medium-sized town, city).

We obtained weighted data at three cross-sectional timepoints between 2003 and 2017, representative for Germany's child and adolescent population. Physical activity and screen time were self-reported. We analyzed trends using a structural equation modeling framework for the overall sample and calculated interactions between the trends and age and gender, respectively.

In total, 12,161 children and adolescents between 4 and 17 years participated in the study. Children and adolescents in rural areas experienced a downward of children and adolescents in Germany, detrimental trends in children's physical activity and screen time occur at a higher rate in rural areas compared with urban environments. This provides critical information for health policy While all children and adolescents should be targeted for physical activity promotion, a special focus should be on tailoring interventions for rural areas to prevent and mitigate inequalities in physical activity across urban and rural areas.

Stress-related brain disorders can be associated with glucocorticoid disturbance and hippocampal alteration. However, it remains largely unknown how cortisol affects the structure and function of hippocampus. Cushing's disease (CD) provides a unique "hyperexpression model" to explore the effects of excessive cortisol on hippocampus as well as the relation between these effects and neuropsychological deficits.

We acquired high-resolution T1-weighted and resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging in 47 CD patients and 53 healthy controls. We obtained the volume and functional connectivity of the hippocampal rostral and caudal subregions in both groups. Relationships between hippocampal alterations, neuroendocrine, and neuropsychological assessments were identified.

Relative to control subjects, the CD patients had smaller volumes of all four hippocampal subregions. Furthermore, whole brain resting-state functional connectivity analyses with these four different hippocampal regions as seeds revealed altered hippocampal functional connectivity with high-order networks, involving the DMN, frontoparietal, and limbic networks in CD patients. The intrinsic hippocampal functional connectivity was associated with the quality of life of the CD patients.

Our findings elucidate the cumulative effect of excess cortisol on the morphology and function of hippocampus and reinforce the need for effective interventions in stress-related brain disease to halt potential hippocampal damage.

Patients with bipolar disorder (BD) had contributed immensely to high health service utilization. Variation in clinical practices that miss to follow the standard guidelines all with the disorder complexity, deepened the management gap. This study aimed to provide an Egyptian epidemiological database of the ongoing clinical practices that framed different diagnostic and management choices in a sample of patients with bipolar disorder. Highlighting challenges and the need for optimized clinical practices.

Over 4 months in 2014, 20 clinicians filled in a designed sheet of their routine healthcare practice with information about; caseload /month, management guidelines knowledge background. Out of 301 patients in acute episode BD, 300 patients aged 20 to 60 years from both sexes, completed their assessment using; (1) a semi-structured interview sheet, (2) Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Axis I (SCID I) for psychiatric diagnoses, (3) Global Assessment of Functioning scale for illness impact.

The present study was to evaluated the clinical value of anatomical thermal ablation to treat hepatocellular carcinoma compared with routine thermal ablation.

Hepatocellular carcinoma patients with tumor diameter ≤50mm treated by thermal ablation at our center were retrospectively enrolled from October 2015 to December 2018. Enrolled patients were grouped into the anatomical ablation group and routine ablation group, respectively. To minimize the effects of potential confounders from selection bias, a propensity score matching was carried out. Technical efficacy, recurrence and survivals rates were compared.

Altogether 101 patients (119 lesions) were grouped into the anatomical ablation group and 101 patients (131 lesions) into the routine ablation group. The ablation zone volume of the anatomical ablation group was 36.8 (2.5-176.9) ml, significantly larger than that of the routine ablation group (28.5 [28.5 (2.8-184.3) ml] (p=0.005)). Adjusted with propensity score matching, The 1-, 2-, and 3-year local recurrence rates were 0.0%, 0.0%, and 0.0% for the anatomical ablation group and 6.9%, 10.1%, and 10.1% for the routine ablation group, respectively (p=0.013). The cumulative 1-, 2-, and 3-year progression-free survival rates were 93.4%, 82.7%, and 79.0% for the anatomical ablation group, 74.2%, 56.9%, and 51.6% for the routine ablation group (p=0.001).

An unusual "wrapping" growth that combines ligand-promoted facet-selective growth and site-specific deposition is proposed. Such a templateless growth not only allows the extreme defect-tolerance, but also broadens the synthetic control at the nanoscale.

Online treatments for child anxiety offer a potentially cost-effective and non-stigmatizing means to widen access to evidence-based treatments and meet the increasing demand on services; however, uptake in routine clinical practice remains a challenge. This study conducted an initial evaluation of the clinical effectiveness, feasibility and acceptability of OSI (Online Support and Intervention for child anxiety) within clinical practice. SB239063 cost OSI is a co-designed online therapist-supported, parent-led CBT treatment for pre-adolescent children with anxiety problems.

This case series was part of routine service evaluation in a clinic in England where families were offered OSI to treat a primary anxiety difficulty among 7- to 12-year-old children; 24 families were offered OSI, and 23 took it up. Measures of anxiety symptomatology, functional impairment and progress towards therapeutic goals were taken at pre-treatment, post-treatment and 4-week follow-up. Treatment satisfaction and engagement were also measured throughout the intervention.
