Objective:
To describe the prevalence and association of dietary rhythm and depressive symptoms among adolescents, so as to provide a basis for improving unhealthy behavioral habits,and to promote adolescent physical and mental health.
Methods:
From October to December 2021, a total of 22 868 students were selected from one middle school and high school in urban and rural areas of eight cities, namely, Shenyang, Xuzhou, Shenzhen, Taiyuan, Nanchang, Zhengzhou, Chongqing, and Kunming cities, China, using a combination of purposive sampling and stratified cluster random sampling. A self administered questionnaire was used to assess adolescents dietary rhythm, and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) was used to assess depressive symptoms. Binary Logistic regression model was employed to analyze the associations between adolescent dietary rhythm and depressive symptoms, while the associations between adolescent dietary rhythm and depressive symptoms across gender and physical activity levels were stratified by gender and physical activity levels.
Results:
The detection rate of depressive symptoms in adolescents was 44.4%. The respective differences in the detection rates of depressive symptoms among adolescents of different genders, physical activity levels, and dietary rhythm disorders were statistically significant ( χ 2=157.51, 105.02, 3 282.50, P <0.01). Taking the low disordered dietary rhythm group as the reference, binary Logistic regression analyses showed that after adjusting for confounding factors such as age, gender,family location, family economic situation, whether only child, parental education level, and learning burden, physical activity levels, depressive symptoms were positively correlated with adolescents in the moderate disordered dietary rhythm group ( OR=2.63, 95%CI =2.45-2.83) and the high disordered dietary rhythm group ( OR=6.38, 95%CI = 5.93- 6.86). In addition, after stratifying by gender, dietary rhythm were positively correlated with depressive symptoms. The moderate disordered group (male: OR=2.62, 95%CI =2.37-2.89, female: OR=2.67, 95%CI =2.40-2.97) and the highly disordered group (male: OR=5.74, 95%CI =5.19-6.35, female: OR=7.11, 95%CI =6.40-7.89) were positively correlated with depressive symptoms. After stratification by physical activity levels, low, moderate and above physical activity levels among adolescents in the disordered dietary rhythm group (low physical activity: OR=2.91, 95%CI =2.58-3.29, moderate and above physical activity: OR= 2.50, 95%CI =2.28-2.74), high disordered group (low physical activity: OR=6.51, 95%CI =5.94- 7.13 , moderate and higher physical activity: OR=6.18, 95%CI =5.47-6.97) were positively associated with depressive symptoms ( P <0.01). There was an interaction between dietary rhythm and physical activity levels in regard to the development of depressive symptoms in adolescents, taking the group with moderate and above physical activity levels and low disordered dietary rhythm as the reference,the detection rate of which was higher in adolescents with low levels of physical activity and those in the moderate or high disordered dietary rhythm group ( OR=1.50, 3.90, 95%CI=1.39-1.61, 3.63-4.19, P <0.01).
Conclusions
Dietary rhythm disorders were found to be positively associated with depressive symptoms in adolescents. Regular dietary behaviors and increased physical activity play an important positive role in promoting adolescent mental health.

Objective:To observe the unfolding status of foldable acrylic intraocular lens (IOL) of different materials, designs and refractive powers implanted in the capsular bag during cataract surgery, and to investigate its influence on the IOL implantation procedure.Methods:An observational case series study was conducted.A total of 1 005 patients who underwent routine phacoemulsification and IOL implantation in Shaanxi Eye Hospital from February to August 2021 were enrolled.The status and unfolding time of the leading haptic, optical region, and trailing haptic of the IOL in the capsular bag and the surgeon were recorded in real-time intraoperative video.Of the 1 005 IOL implants, 681 were hydrophobic, 324 hydrophilic, 733 C-loop, 272 plate-haptic, 909 single-piece, 96 three-piece, 620 preloaded, and 385 non-preloaded.The differences in unconventional implantation factors and IOL unfolding time were compared.The factors influencing IOL implantation status were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression.Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the relevant factors affecting IOL implantation status.This study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki.The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Xi'an People's Hospital (Xi'an Fourth Hospital)(No.20200035). Written informed consent was obtained from each subject.Results:There were 14(1.4%) IOLs with unconventional leading haptic status during implantation, including 7 recurved, 4 folded, 2 twisted and 1 straightened.There were 101(10.0%) IOLs with unconventional trailing haptic status during implantation, including 49 stuck in the injector, 40 folded, 10 recurved and 2 broken.There were 22(2.2%) IOLs with overlapped leading and trailing haptic requiring additional separation.There were 4(0.4%) IOLs with reversed optical regions and 2(0.2%) with damaged optical regions.The occurrence rate of unconventional leading haptic status using C-loop IOL was higher than that using plate IOL, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The occurrence rate of unconventional trailing haptic status using hydrophilic, non-preloaded, three-piece, and C-loop IOL was higher than that using hydrophobic, preloaded, single-piece, and plate IOL, respectively, and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=9.100, 61.400, 81.885, 7.587; all at P<0.05). The 22(2.2%) IOLs with overlapped leading and trailing haptic were hydrophobic.The 4 (0.4%) IOLs with reversed optical region were non-preloaded.The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that IOL material, loading method, design and surgeons were related to the unconventional trailing haptic status in implantation ( OR=9.894, 3.720, 6.810, 1.338; all at P<0.05). The average unfolding time of hydrophobic IOL was 26.12(21.21, 30.91)s, which was significantly longer than 3.03(2.16, 4.49)s of hydrophilic IOL ( Z=-25.603, P<0.05). The average unfolding time of C-loop IOL was 25.53(19.41, 30.25)s, which was significantly longer than 2.70(2.08, 3.69) s of plate IOL ( Z=-23.764, P<0.05). Conclusions:A variety of unconventional statuses of IOL can occur during implantation into the lens capsular bag.The use of hydrophobic, preloaded, single-piece, and plate IOLs can reduce the occurrence of unconventional status.The use of hydrophilic IOLs can reduce the overlap of leading and trailing haptic.The use of preloaded IOLs can reduce the occurrence of IOL optical region reversal.The use of hydrophilic and plate IOLs can shorten the operation time.

ObjectiveTo investigate the value of serum cell cycle protein-dependent kinase 1 (CDK1) and aurora kinase A (AURKA) in the diagnosis of patients with hepatitis B virus-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HBV-HCC). MethodsA total of 50 HBV-HCC patients, 50 patients with hepatitis B virus-related liver cirrhosis (HBV-LC), and 50 chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients who were hospitalized in Department of Gastroenterology, Gansu Provincial Hospital, from June 2022 to December 2023 were enrolled, and 50 healthy individuals, matched for age and sex, who received physical examination at Physical Examination Center during the same period of time were enrolled as control group. Related data were recorded for all patients, including age, sex, complications, and the results of routine blood test, liver function, and coagulation for the first time after admission. ELISA was used to measure the serum levels of CDK1 and AURKA. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between multiple groups, and the least significant difference t-test was used for further comparison between two groups; the Kruskal-Wallis H test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between multiple groups and the least significant difference Bonferroni test was used for further comparison between two groups; the chi-square test or the Fisher’s exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups. The Spearman correlation analysis was used to investigate the correlation between CDK1 and AURKA, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) were used to investigate the value of CDK1 and AURKA in the diagnosis of HBV-HCC. ResultsThere were significant differences in liver function parameters between the HBV-HCC patients and the control group (all P<0.05); there were significant differences between the CHB group and the HBV-HCC group in albumin, Glb, direct bilirubin, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT), and alkaline phosphatase (all P<0.05); there were significant differences between the HBV-LC group and the HBV-HCC group in Glb, AST, and GGT (all P<0.05). The HBV-HCC group had significantly higher serum levels of CDK1 and AURKA than the HBV-LC group, the CHB group, and the control group (all P<0.05). There was a significant positive correlation between CDK1 and AURKA in the overall study population and the HBV-HCC patients (r=0.526 6 and 0.815 2, P<0.001). With the control group as reference, CDK1 had an AUC of 0.832 3 in the diagnosis of HBV-HCC, with a sensitivity of 92.86% and a specificity of 75%, and AURKA had an AUC of 0.886 6 in the diagnosis of HCC, with a sensitivity of 95.80% and a specificity of 74%. With the CHB group as reference, CDK1 had an AUC of 0.833 3 in the diagnosis of HBV-HCC, with a sensitivity of 93.75% and a specificity of 75%, and AURKA had an AUC of 0.972 7 in the diagnosis of HBV-HCC, with a sensitivity of 95.83% and a specificity of 91.67%. With the HBV-LC group as reference, CDK1 had an AUC of 0.608 5 in the diagnosis of HBV-HCC, with a sensitivity of 66.67% and a specificity of 54.17%, and AURKA had an AUC of 0.762 2 in the diagnosis of HBV-HCC, with a sensitivity of 95.83% and a specificity of 47.92%. ConclusionThe serum levels of CDK1 and AURKA increase with the progression of hepatitis B-associated chronic liver disease, and significant increases in serum CDK1 and AURKA have a certain value in the diagnosis of HBV-HCC.

Hepatic fibrosis characterized by various chronic liver injuries can lead to abnormal activation of hepatic stellate cells, unbalanced production and degradation of extracellular matrix proteins, and excessive deposition that destroys the normal structure of the liver. The aggravated liver fibrosis can cause irreversible cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, becoming a great challenge to the global health. Ferroptosis is a new form of iron-dependent cell death discovered in recent years, which mainly involves abnormal iron metabolism, lipid peroxide accumulation, and weakening of the antioxidant defense system. A number of studies have reported that inducing ferroptosis in hepatic stellate cells or alleviating ferroptosis in the liver can ameliorate liver fibrosis and reduce liver injury. Chinese medicine widely applied in the treatment of chronic liver diseases has demonstrated good safety, wide therapeutic effects, and easy access compared with Western medicine. Therefore, The intervention of hepatic stellate cells or hepatic ferroptosis by Chinese medicine may be a new direction for the prevention and treatment of liver fibrosis in the future. This paper summarized the various regulatory mechanisms of ferroptosis and expounded how ferroptosis affected the progression of liver fibrosis, providing theoretical support for the prevention and treatment of liver fibrosis with Chinese medicine in the future.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common tumor in the digestive tract, the formation mechanism of which remains to be fully elucidated. Although surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy have achieved significant results in the treatment of HCC, these methods are accompanied by a considerable number of adverse reactions and complications. In recent years, Chinese medicine has shown remarkable efficacy in the treatment of HCC, and both basic experiments and clinical studies have confirmed the effectiveness of Chinese medicine, which exerts therapeutic effects via multiple components and multiple targets. However, the pathogenesis of HCC is exceptionally complex and not fully understood, which means that studies remain to be carried out regarding the specific mechanism of Chinese medicine in preventing and treating HCC. Network pharmacology and molecular biology can be employed to decipher the mechanism of Chinese medicine in the treatment of diseases. Studies have shown that Chinese medicine can regulate various pathways such as the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/Akt), Hedgehog, Wnt/β-catenin, nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), Janus kinase 2/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (JAK2/STAT3), and transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β)/Smad signaling pathways. Chinese medicine can exhibit its anti-HCC effects by inducing cell apoptosis, inhibiting cell proliferation and migration, and blocking the cell cycle via the above pathways. However, the specific mechanisms remain to be systematically studied. This study comprehensively reviews the regulatory effects of Chinese medicine on HCC-related signaling pathways to reveal the molecular mechanisms of Chinese medicine in the treatment of HCC. This view holds the promise of providing new targets, new perspectives, and new therapies for HCC treatment and advancing the modernization and development of Chinese medicine.
