Objective: To investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of acute stress disorder (ASD) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in trauma patients, and to explore the predictive effect of ASD on PTSD.
Methods: A prospective study was conducted on patients hospitalized due to injuries. The first survey used the ASD scale to assess the occurrence of ASD.
This is the first study in China to investigate the prevalence of workplace violence (WPV) and its long-term association with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among healthcare workers. Conducted across various time points from March 27, 2020, to April 10, 2023, the research employed a four-wave repeated cross-sectional design involving 14,993 healthcare workers from 32 provincial administrative regions across the country. Nurses accounted for 34.

- Trauma complications significantly increase hospitalization costs, with 22% of trauma patients experiencing at least one complication, leading to an overall cost increase of 1.32 times.
- The study identified specific complications related to patient demographics, with elderly women more likely to experience thrombosis, while young men often faced respiratory issues from head injuries.
- Findings aim to assist in developing better trauma management and classification strategies by detailing the link between complication characteristics and their financial impact.
Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are pivotal in cancer progression, influencing tumor growth, angiogenesis, and immune evasion. This review explores the spatial and temporal heterogeneity of TAMs within the tumor microenvironment (TME), highlighting their diverse subtypes, origins, and functions. Advanced technologies such as single-cell sequencing and spatial multi-omics have elucidated the intricate interactions between TAMs and other TME components, revealing the mechanisms behind their recruitment, polarization, and distribution.

Background: Several surgical and non-surgical local interventional approaches are available for the treatment of DFUs. The comparative effectiveness of different treatments is unknown, and it remains unclear which approach is the optimal choice for DFUs treatment due to limited direct comparisons.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to identify key factors influencing Acute Stress Disorder (ASD) in hospitalized patients to enhance early detection and intervention.
- Researchers analyzed data from 489 inpatients across three hospitals using various statistical methods to understand the impact of trauma, psychological stress, fear, and pain.
- Findings indicated that trauma exposure and psychological burdens significantly contribute to ASD, with high sensitivity and specificity in predicting cases, suggesting a potential model for early ASD identification.
Article Synopsis
- A systematic review and meta-analysis examined the prevalence and risk factors for PTSD in women who experienced perinatal intimate partner violence (P-IPV), finding a pooled prevalence rate of 30% among the 9,098 subjects studied.
- Key influencing factors identified included being a non-immigrant, living without a partner, having a history of trauma, lower education levels, and being aged 18 to 29 years.
- The study highlights the need for more diverse geographical research to better understand the association between PTSD and P-IPV in women.
Background: Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) in parents traumatized by a child's critical illness, while differences in prevalence and risk factors for parental PTSD in previous studies. This study aimed to assess trends in the prevalence and risk factors for PTSD in parents of critically ill children.
Methods: Nine main databases were searched to extract the prevalence, sample size and risk factors from the published literature.
