Impulsivity in patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder: exploring the mediating effect of cognitive emotion regulation strategies and depressive symptoms
No full textBackgroundThe underlying mechanism of impulsivity in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) patients is complex and still unclear. Previous studies have not thoroughly explored whether impulsivity in OCD patients is a result of the obsessive-compulsive symptoms themselves or other contributing factors. This study aimed to explore whether cognitive emotion regulation strategies and depressive symptoms mediate the relationship between the severity of obsessive-compulsive symptoms and impulsivity in a clinical population with OCD.MethodsThis was a case-control study that recruited 65 OCD patients (male/female=31/34) and 65 healthy controls (male/female =23/42), matched for age, gender, and education level. Demographic and clinical data were collected, and the Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (Y-BOCS), Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II), Barratt Impulsiveness Scale-11 (BIS-11) and Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ) were adopted.ResultsOCD patients scored higher on BIS-11 attentional and non-planning impulsiveness and total scores (all p < 0.05). On CERQ, OCD patients showed elevated maladaptive strategies (self-blame, rumination, catastrophizing, blaming others) and reduced adaptive strategies (positive reappraisal) (all p < 0.05). Attentional impulsiveness positively correlated with OCD severity, depression, and maladaptive strategies (all p < 0.05). Non-planning impulsiveness and BIS-11 total scores positively correlated with depression and negatively with adaptive strategies (all p < 0.05). After adjusting for age, gender, depression level, there was only a significant negative correlation between BIS-11 non-planning impulsiveness and CERQ maladaptive strategies (r = -0.28, p < 0.05). Mediation analysis revealed significant indirect effects of OCD severity on impulsivity via adaptive strategies/depression (β = 0.13, 95% CI: 0.03~0.24, p = 0.012) and via maladaptive strategies/depression (β = 0.09, 95% CI: 0.00~0.23, p = 0.042), but no significant direct or total effects.ConclusionsOCD symptom severity indirectly influences impulsivity through emotion regulation strategies and depressive symptoms, highlighting the need to target these mediators in clinical interventions
Determination of Minimum Data Set for Soil Health Assessment of Farmlands under Wheat–Maize Crop System in Yanting County, Sichuan, China
No full textThe assessment of soil health through a robust index system having a sufficient number of indicators is an important step toward sustainable crop production. The present study aimed at establishing a minimum data set (MDS) from soil functional and nutritional attributes using a dual index system to evaluate the soil health of farmlands under wheat (Triticum aestivum)–maize (Zea mays) crop rotation in Yanting County, Sichuan, China. Farms from 10 villages in the study area were selected, out of which three sites were considered healthy/ideal sites and used as a reference for the remaining seven targeted sites, and soil samples were collected at depth of 20 cm from these farms. The MDS indicators were selected by using principal component analysis (PCA) followed by Pearson’s correlation on 25 attributes. Based on significant values, eight attributes were retained in the final MDS, including the sucrase level, pH, wilting coefficient, water holding capacity, organic matter, NK ratio, total potassium, and available phosphorus. Based on the results, most of the farmland soils in Yanting County were in a healthy condition, accounting for 61.71% of the surveyed samples, followed by sub-healthy, degraded, and weak soils, accounting for 19.64%, 9.71%, and 8.93%, respectively. The values of most of the indicators at the targeted sites were significantly lower than those at ideal sites. Thus, specific steps should be taken by adding soil organic matter, combined with other fertilizers, to enhance the microbial biomass, enzymatic activities, and other biological activities in the soil

Metagenome-assembled genomes reveal greatly expanded taxonomic and functional diversification of the abundant marine Roseobacter RCA cluster
No full textAbstract Background The RCA (Roseobacter clade affiliated) cluster belongs to the family Roseobacteracea and represents a major Roseobacter lineage in temperate to polar oceans. Despite its prevalence and abundance, only a few genomes and one described species, Planktomarina temperata, exist. To gain more insights into our limited understanding of this cluster and its taxonomic and functional diversity and biogeography, we screened metagenomic datasets from the global oceans and reconstructed metagenome-assembled genomes (MAG) affiliated to this cluster. Results The total of 82 MAGs, plus five genomes of isolates, reveal an unexpected diversity and novel insights into the genomic features, the functional diversity, and greatly refined biogeographic patterns of the RCA cluster. This cluster is subdivided into three genera: Planktomarina, Pseudoplanktomarina, and the most deeply branching Candidatus Paraplanktomarina. Six of the eight Planktomarina species have larger genome sizes (2.44–3.12 Mbp) and higher G + C contents (46.36–53.70%) than the four Pseudoplanktomarina species (2.26–2.72 Mbp, 42.22–43.72 G + C%). Cand. Paraplanktomarina is represented only by one species with a genome size of 2.40 Mbp and a G + C content of 45.85%. Three novel species of the genera Planktomarina and Pseudoplanktomarina are validly described according to the SeqCode nomenclature for prokaryotic genomes. Aerobic anoxygenic photosynthesis (AAP) is encoded in three Planktomarina species. Unexpectedly, proteorhodopsin (PR) is encoded in the other Planktomarina and all Pseudoplanktomarina species, suggesting that this light-driven proton pump is the most important mode of acquiring complementary energy of the RCA cluster. The Pseudoplanktomarina species exhibit differences in functional traits compared to Planktomarina species and adaptations to more resource-limited conditions. An assessment of the global biogeography of the different species greatly expands the range of occurrence and shows that the different species exhibit distinct biogeographic patterns. They partially reflect the genomic features of the species. Conclusions Our detailed MAG-based analyses shed new light on the diversification, environmental adaptation, and global biogeography of a major lineage of pelagic bacteria. The taxonomic delineation and validation by the SeqCode nomenclature of prominent genera and species of the RCA cluster may be a promising way for a refined taxonomic identification of major prokaryotic lineages and sublineages in marine and other prokaryotic communities assessed by metagenomics approaches.
