Objective: To explore the association between takeout fast foods and sugar sweetened beverage consumption with co-occurrence of anxiety and depressive symptoms among first year junior high school students in Yunnan Province, so as to provide theoretical basis for the prevention of anxiety and depressive symptoms co-occurrence among adolescents. Methods: A random cluster sampling involving 8 500 first year junior high school students in 11 counties in Yunnan Province was conducted by a questionnaire survey from October to December 2022. The Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21) was applied to assess anxiety and depressive symptoms in first year junior high school students. Chi-square test was used to compare the anxiety-depression co-occurrence symptoms of first year junior high school students with different demographic characteristics. The association between takeout fast foods and sugar sweetened beverage consumption with co-occurrence of anxiety and depressive symptoms of adolescents was analyzed by binary Logistic regression models. Results: The detection rate of co-occurrence of anxiety and depression symptoms among first year junior high school students in Yunnan Province was 26.92%. After controlling for demographic variables and other confounders, takeout fast foods and sugar sweetened beverage consumption( OR=1.50, 95%CI =1.27-1.77) was associated with anxiety-depression co-occurrence symptoms among first year junior high school students in Yunnan Province ( P <0.01). Stratified analysis showed that both Han ( OR=1.37, 95%CI =1.07-1.77) and ethnic minorities ( OR=1.60, 95%CI =1.29-2.00) exhibited statistically significant associations between takeout fast foods and sugar sweetened beverage consumption with co-occurrence of anxiety and depressive symptoms(both P <0.05). Conclusions Takeout fast foods and sugar sweetened beverage consumption increases the risk of co-occurrence of anxiety and depressive symptoms among first year junior high school students in Yunnan Province. It is recommended to strengthen guidance on the consumption of such products among junior high school students to prevent co-occurrence of anxiety and depressive symptoms.

Background::Atopic dermatitis (AD) affects approximately 10% of adults worldwide. CM310 is a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting interleukin-4 receptor alpha that blocks interleukin-4 and interleukin-13 signaling. This trial aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CM310 in Chinese adults with moderate-to-severe AD.Methods::This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 2b trial was conducted in 21 medical institutions in China from February to November 2021. Totally 120 eligible patients were enrolled and randomized (1:1:1) to receive subcutaneous injections of 300 mg CM310, 150 mg CM310, or placebo every 2 weeks for 16 weeks, followed by an 8-week follow-up period. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients achieving ≥75% improvement in the Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI-75) score from baseline at week 16. Safety and pharmacodynamics were also studied.Results::At week 16, the proportion of EASI-75 responders from baseline was significantly higher in the CM310 groups (70% [28/40] for high-dose and 65% [26/40] for low-dose) than that in the placebo group (20%[8/40]). The differences in EASI-75 response rate were 50% (high vs. placebo, 95% CI 31%–69%) and 45% (low vs. placebo, 95% CI 26%–64%), with both P values <0.0001. CM310 at both doses also significantly improved the EASI score, Investigator’s Global Assessment score, daily peak pruritus Numerical Rating Scale, AD-affected body surface area, and Dermatology Life Quality Index compared with placebo. CM310 treatment reduced levels of thymus and activation-regulated chemokine, total immunoglobulin E, lactate dehydrogenase, and blood eosinophils. The incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) was similar among all three groups, with the most common TEAEs reported being upper respiratory tract infection, atopic dermatitis, hyperlipidemia, and hyperuricemia. No severe adverse events were deemed to be attributed to CM310. Conclusion::CM310 at 150 mg and 300 mg every 2 weeks demonstrated significant efficacy and was well-tolerated in adults with moderate-to-severe AD.Trial Registration::ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04805411.

Objective To assess ocular biometric parameters among primary and secondary school students from Naxi,Bai and Han ethnic groups in Yunnan Province.Methods The school-based study was conducted in October 2020.A total of 724 second-,third-and seventh-graders were selected from Dali and Lijiang,where Bai and Naxi ethnic groups inhabit,using a stratified cluster sampling method to receive questionnaire surveys and eye examinations.Non-cycloplegic spherical equivalent(SE),axial length(AL),anterior chamber depth(ACD),corneal radius of curvature(CR),central corneal thickness(CCT),white-to-white(WTW)distance,and the AL/CR ratio were measured.Covariance analysis was used to examine the differences in SE and ocular biometric parameters in terms of ethnicity,sex and grade,while Pearson correlation was used to test the associations among the said indicators.Results There were no significant differences in daily outdoor time,screen time and sleep time among the three ethnic groups regardless of grades(all P＞0.05).The mean CCT of Naxi students was lower than that of Han and Bai students[grade 2 and grade 3:(542.48±39.76)μm vs.(553.81±31.83)μm and(559.27±32.79)μm;grade7:(538.86±34.91)μm vs.(547.41±33.55)μm and(548.26± 32.98)μm,all P＜0.05],while no significant differences were found in the other ocular biometric parameters among the three ethnic groups(all P＞0.05).Among the seventh-graders,the SE,AL and AL/CR ratio of Naxi students were signifi-cantly different from those of Han and Bai students(all P＜0.05).The AL,CR,ACD,CCT,WTW distance,and mean SE were lower in girls than in boys(all P＜0.05).Compared with grade 2 and grade 3,students of grade 7 had longer AL,deeper ACD and thinner CCT(all P＜0.05),while no significant differences were found in CR and WTW distance(all P＞0.05).Correlation analysis showed that the AL/CR ratio was highly correlated with SE(r=-0.78,P＜0.05).Conclu-sion Multiethnic primary and secondary school students may face similar environmental risks.Yet,disparities in ocular biometric parameters caused by ethnicity,sex and age should be noted.

Objective:To analyze the clinical features and genetic etiology of 17 Chinese pedigrees affected with X-linked intellectual disability (XLID).Methods:Seventeen pedigrees affected with unexplained intellectual disability which had presented at Henan Provincial People′s Hospital from May 2021 to May 2023 were selected as the study subjects. Clinical data of the probands and their pedigree members were collected. Trio-whole exome sequencing (Trio-WES), Sanger sequencing and X chromosome inactivation (XCI) analysis were carried out. Pathogenicity of candidate variants was predicted based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics and co-segregation analysis.Results:The 17 probands, including 9 males and 8 females with an age ranging from 0.6 to 8 years old, had all shown mental retardation and developmental delay. Fourteen variants were detected by genetic testing, which included 4 pathogenic variants ( MECP2: c. 502C>T, MECP2: c. 916C>T/c.806delG, IQSEC2: c.1417G>T), 4 likely pathogenic variants ( MECP2: c. 1157_1197del/c.925C>T, KDM5C: c. 2128A>T, SLC6A8: c. 1631C>T) and 6 variants of uncertain significance ( KLHL15: c. 26G>C, PAK3: c. 970A>G/c.1520G>A, GRIA3: c. 2153C>G, TAF1: c. 2233T>G, HUWE1: c. 10301T>A). The PAK3: c.970A>G, GRIA3: c. 2153C>G and TAF1: c. 2233T>G variants were considered as the genetic etiology for pedigrees 12, 14 and 15 by co-segregation analysis, respectively. The proband of pedigree 13 was found to have non-random XCI (81: 19). Therefore, the PAK3: c. 1520G>A variant may underlie its pathogenesis. Conclusion:Trio-WES has attained genetic diagnosis for the 17 XLID pedigrees. Sanger sequencing and XCI assay can provide auxiliary tests for the diagnosis of XLID.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect and mechanism of NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitor-dapansutrile(OLT1177)-against acute radiation lung injury.Methods Mice were divided into the control group,OLT1177 injection group,irradiation group,and irradiation+OLT1177 injection group.A single dose of 22 Gy whole-lung 60Co radiation was used to establish a model of acute radiation lung injury.After 6 h of radiation,OLT1177(100mg/kg,once daily)was administered intraperitoneally.After 14 consecutive days of administration,lung tissues were collected and weighed while the lung coefficient was calculated.Hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining and F4/80 immuno-histochemical staining were used to observe the pathological changes and inflammatory cell infiltration in lung tissues.Real-time quantitative PCR(qPCR)was used to detect the transcription levels of NLRP3,IL-1β,and other mRNAs in lung tissues.Serum cytokines such as TNF-α and IL-6 were measured by cytometric bead array(CBA).The activation of Caspase-1 and IL-18 was detected by Western blotting.Results Radiation caused acute inflammation in the lung tissues of mice,manifested as edema in the lung tissues and destruction of the alveolar structure,increased macrophage infiltration,and elevated expressions of inflammatory genes NLRP3,IL-1β,TNF-α,and IL-6 in the lung tissues and higher serum levels of TNF-α,IL-6.Treatment with OLT1177 significantly improved the above symptoms induced by radiation.OLT1177 inhibited the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome downstream Caspase-1 and IL-18 induced by radiation.Conclusion OLT1177 can significantly alleviate acute radiation lung injury in mice,which may be due to its inhibition of NLRP3 inflammasome activation induced by radiation.

Intestinal obstruction is a common disease in surgical acute abdomen. Due to the diverse causes of intestinal obstruction and rapid disease progression, there are difficulties in diagnosis and treatment. Actively searching for the cause is beneficial for assisting in formulating treatment plans for patients. Treatment plan for intestinal obstruction can be divided into conservative treatment and surgical treatment. Conservative treatment mainly includes targeted treatment such as retained gastrointestinal decompression, enema, and fluid replacement, while surgical treatment mainly includes open exploration and laparoscopic exploration. After the cause of disease is determined, patients who are temporarily exempt from surgical treatment can be given conservative treatment. During the process of conservative treatment, the need for surgical treatment is determined based on the patient′s symptoms and signs. Premature surgery may lead to additional surgical trauma for patients who could have been relieved of obstruction through conservative treatment, and if not treated promptly, it may lead to intestinal necrosis and perforation, leading to septic shock and, patient death in severe cases. Whether laparoscopic exploration can be performed during surgical treatment and whether treatment can be performed under laparoscopy after laparoscopic exploration is another choice. The authors report the diagnosis and treatment of a patient with intestinal obstruction caused by malignant tumor in rectosigmoid region, aiming to provide reference for the treatment of related diseases.
