This is the first meta-analysis of the pooled prevalence of insomnia in the general population of China. A systematic literature search was conducted via the following databases: PubMed, PsycINFO, EMBASE and Chinese databases (China National Knowledge Interne (CNKI), WanFang Data and SinoMed). Statistical analyses were performed using the Comprehensive Meta-Analysis program. A total of 17 studies with 115,988 participants met the inclusion criteria for the analysis. The pooled prevalence of insomnia in China was 15.0% (95% Confidence interval [CI]: 12.1%-18.5%). No significant difference was found in the prevalence between genders or across time period. The pooled prevalence of insomnia in population with a mean age of 43.7 years and older (11.6%; 95% CI: 7.5%-17.6%) was significantly lower than in those with a mean age younger than 43.7 years (20.4%; 95% CI: 14.2%-28.2%). The prevalence of insomnia was significantly affected by the type of assessment tools (Q = 14.1, P = 0.001). The general population prevalence of insomnia in China is lower than those reported in Western countries but similar to those in Asian countries. Younger Chinese adults appear to suffer from more insomnia than older adults. CRD 42016043620.

Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is the early stage of cognitive impairment between the expected cognitive decline of normal aging and the more serious decline of dementia. This meta-analysis and systematic review explored the pooled global prevalence of MCI among older adults living in nursing homes and its relevant factors. The review protocol was registered in INPLASY (INPLASY202250098). PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, PsycINFO, and CINAHL databases were systematically searched from their respective inception dates to 8 January 2022. The inclusion criteria were made based on the PICOS acronym, as follows: Participants (P): Older adults living in nursing homes; Intervention (I): not applicable; Comparison (C): not applicable; Outcome (O): prevalence of MCI or the data can generate the prevalence of MCI according to study-defined criteria; Study design (S): cohort studies (only baseline data were extracted) and cross-sectional studies with accessible data published in a peer-reviewed journal. Studies involving mixed resources, reviews, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, case studies, and commentaries were excluded. Data analyses were performed using Stata Version 15.0. Random effects model was used to synthesize the overall prevalence of MCI. An 8-item instrument for epidemiological studies was used to assess the quality of included studies. A total of 53 articles were included involving 376,039 participants with a mean age ranging from 64.42 to 86.90 years from 17 countries. The pooled prevalence of MCI in older adults in nursing homes was 21.2% (95% CI: 18.7–23.6%). Subgroup and meta-regression analyses revealed that the screening tools used were significantly associated with MCI prevalence. Studies using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (49.8%) had a higher prevalence of MCI than those using other instruments. No significant publication bias was found. Several limitations warrant attention in this study; for example, significant heterogeneity between studies remained and some factors associated with the prevalence of MCI were not examined due to insufficient data. Adequate screening measures and allocation of resources are needed to address the high global prevalence of MCI among older adults living in nursing homes.

Few studies on long-term functional outcome have been conducted in post-stroke patients in China. The objective of this study was to conduct a nationwide survey in China to investigate the 5-year prevalence of post-stroke disability and its correlation factors. A total of 893 patients with ischemic stroke were included. Demographic, clinical and neuro-imaging information were collected with standardized instruments that assessed stroke severity, depression, cognitive impairment, stroke recurrence and physical disability. Disability was assessed with the modified Ranking Score (mRS), of which a cutoff score ≥2 indicates disability. Statistical analysis included chi-square tests, two independent samples t-tests, Mann-Whitney U test and multiple logistic regression analysis. The frequency of disability in this study population was 45%. Multivariate analyses revealed that older age, lower education level, previous history of stroke, stroke severity at admission, depression, cognitive impairment at 3 months, and stroke recurrence within 5 years follow up were all significantly associated with post-stroke disability. The disability rate in 5-year post-stroke was high in Chinese patients. Treatment of depression, secondary prevention of stroke and rehabilitation may benefit disabled patients with stroke in China.

Recently, more than 300 Chinese patients with psychiatric disorders were diagnosed with the 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19). Possible reasons quoted in the report were the lack of caution regarding the COVID-19 outbreak in January and insufficient supplies of protective gear. We outlined major challenges for patients with psychiatric disorders and mental health professionals during the COVID-19 outbreak, and also discussed how to manage these challenges through further mental health service reform in China.

PurposeTo develop a minimal physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (mPBPK) model in quantifying the relationships between the charge and pharmacokinetics (PK) of therapeutic monoclonal IgG antibody (TMAb).MethodsPK data used in this study were native IgG and five humanized anti-HCVE2-IgG antibodies in rats. Different models that related the effect of charge on interstitial distribution, transcapillary transport, and cellular uptake for FcRn-mediated metabolism were tested. External validation was conducted to assess if the charge-parameter relationships derived from rats could be used to predict the PK of TMAbs in mice. The final mPBPK model was used to construct the relationships between the FcRn binding and charge on the PK of TMAbs.ResultsIncreasing the isoelectric point (pI) of IgG was associated with higher interstitial space distribution and cellular uptake. The transcapillary transport of IgG from plasma to interstitial space remains constant with pI values below 7.96 and then increased linearly with pI. The model-based simulation results suggested that improving the FcRn binding affinity can overcome the problems of low plasma/interstitial space exposures associated with TMAbs with higher pI values by reducing the FcRn-mediated metabolism and hence increasing drug exposure in the interstitial space that has close contact with many solid tumors.ConclusionsThe final mPBPK model was developed and used to construct complex quantitative relationships between the pI/FcRn binding affinity and PK of TMAbs and such relationships are useful to select the discovery of a “sweet spot” of designing future generation of TMAbs with optimal PK properties to achieve desirable plasma and tissue drug exposures.

BackgroundSchizophrenia (SCZ) is a severe psychiatric disorder that involves inflammatory processes. The aim of this study was to explore the field of inflammation-related research in SCZ from a bibliometric perspective.MethodsRegular and review articles on SCZ- and inflammation-related research were obtained from the Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC) database from its inception to February 19, 2022. R package “bibliometrix” was used to summarize the main findings, count the occurrences of the top keywords, visualize the collaboration network between countries, and generate a three-field plot. VOSviewer software was applied to conduct both co-authorship and co-occurrence analyses. CiteSpace was used to identify the top references and keywords with the strongest citation burst.ResultsA total of 3,596 publications on SCZ and inflammation were included. Publications were mainly from the USA, China, and Germany. The highest number of publications was found in a list of relevant journals. Apart from “schizophrenia” and “inflammatory”, the terms “bipolar disorder,” “brain,” and “meta-analysis” were also the most frequently used keywords.ConclusionsThis bibliometric study mapped out a fundamental knowledge structure consisting of countries, institutions, authors, journals, and articles in the research field of SCZ and inflammation over the past 30 years. The results provide a comprehensive perspective about the wider landscape of this research area.

Background A phasic dysregulation of mitochondrial bioenergetics may operate in bipolar disorder, increased in mania and decreased in depression. We aimed to examine efficacy of two add-on treatments in bipolar depression: N -acetylcysteine (NAC) and NAC with a combination of nutraceutical agents that may increase mitochondrial biogenesis. Methods A three-arm 16-week, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial, adjunctive to usual treatment, was conducted. Participants ( n  = 181) with bipolar disorder and current depressive symptoms were randomised to 2000 mg/day NAC ( n  = 59), 2000 mg/day NAC with the combination nutraceutical treatment (CT, n  = 61), or placebo ( n  = 61). The primary outcome was change in Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) total score from baseline to week 16. Young Mania Rating Scale, Clinical Global Impression (CGI)-Improvement and CGI-Severity scales, Patient Global Impression scale, Social and Occupational Functioning Assessment Scale (SOFAS), Longitudinal Interval Follow-Up Evaluation - Range of Impaired Functioning Tool (LIFE-RIFT), and Quality of Life Enjoyment, and Satisfaction Questionnaire Short Form (Q-LES-Q-SF) were secondary outcomes. Results One hundred forty-eight participants had post-randomisation data and were analysed (NAC = 52, CT = 47, Placebo = 49). No between-group differences were found for the rate of change between baseline and 16 weeks on any of the clinical and functioning variables. Improvements in MADRS, BDRS, SOFAS, and LIFE-RIFT scores from baseline to the week 20 post-discontinuation visit were significantly greater in the CT group compared to those in the placebo. At week 20, the CGI-I was significantly lower in the CT group versus placebo. Gastrointestinal symptoms were significantly greater in the NAC than in the placebo group. Conclusions These overall negative results, with no significant differences between groups detected at the primary outcome but some positive secondary signals, suggest either delayed benefit of the combination or an improvement of symptoms on withdrawal which warrants further exploration regarding the composition, mechanisms, and application of mitochondrial agents in illnesses characterised by mitochondrial dysfunction.

The paper extended the TMDD model to drugs with more than two (N > 2) identical binding sites (N-to-one TMDD). The quasi-steady-state (N-to-one QSS), quasi-equilibrium (N-to-one QE), irreversible binding (N-to-one IB), and Michaelis–Menten (N-to-one MM) approximations of the model were derived. To illustrate properties of new equations and approximations, N = 4 case was investigated numerically. Using simulations, the N-to-one QSS approximation was compared with the full N-to-one TMDD model. As expected, and similarly to the standard TMDD for monoclonal antibodies (mAb), N-to-one QSS predictions were nearly identical to N-to-one TMDD predictions, except for times of fast changes following initiation of dosing, when equilibrium has not yet been reached. Predictions for mAbs with soluble targets (slow elimination of the complex) were simulated from the full 4-to-one TMDD model and were fitted to the 4-to-one TMDD model and to its QSS approximation. It was demonstrated that the 4-to-one QSS model provided nearly identical description of not only the observed (simulated) total drug and total target concentrations, but also unobserved concentrations of the free drug, free target, and drug-target complexes. For mAb with a membrane-bound target, the 4-to-one MM approximation adequately described the data. The 4-to-one QSS approximation converged 8 times faster than the full 4-to-one TMDD.

Suicide attempt (SA), which is one of the strongest predictors of completed suicide, is common in major depressive disorder (MDD) but its prevalence across epidemiological studies has been mixed. The aim of this comprehensive meta-analysis was to examine the pooled prevalence of SA in individuals with MDD. A systematic literature search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, PsycINFO, Web of Science and Cochrane Library from their commencement date until 27 December 2017. Original studies containing data on prevalence of SA in individuals with MDD were analyzed. In all, 65 studies with a total of 27 340 individuals with MDD were included. Using the random effects model, the pooled lifetime prevalence of SA was 31% [95% confidence interval (CI) 27-34%], 1-year prevalence was 8% (95% CI 3-14%) and 1-month prevalence was 24% (95% CI 15-34%). Subgroup analyses revealed that the lifetime prevalence of SA was significantly associated with the patient setting, study region and income level, while the 1-month prevalence of SA was associated with only the patient setting. This meta-analysis confirmed that SA was common in individuals with MDD across the world. Careful screening and appropriate interventions should be implemented for SA in the MDD population.

In light of the growing role of social media marketing in the success of businesses and its low adoption rate among small and medium enterprises (SMEs), this study aims to identify determinants of SMEs’ social media marketing adoption by considering the competitive industry as a moderator. Data were collected from 214 SMEs in Malaysia. Unlike extant literature, this study proposed a dual-stage analysis involving partial least squares (PLS) technique and artificial intelligence named deep artificial neural network (ANN). The application of deep ANN architecture is used to predict 91% of accuracy for the proposed model. The results showed that perceived relative advantage, perceived cost, top management support, perceived competitor pressure, and perceived vendor pressure have a significant impact on social media marketing adoption. Furthermore, the competitive industry moderates the effects of competitive pressure and customer pressure on social media marketing adoption. The results of the study extend the literature on social media marketing by illustrating the influence of technological, organizational, and environmental (TOE) factors on social media marketing adoption among SMEs concerning the extent of industry competition. The results of the study enable policymakers and managers of SMEs to understand the factors that influence social media marketing adoption in both competitive and non-competitive industries and invest effectively in digital marketing.
