Objective: To explore the prevalence of screening myopia and depressive symptom among primary and secondary school students in Xuzhou, and to explore the association of sleep and screen time on the coexistence of screening myopia and depressive symptom, so as to provide scientific references for developing intervention strategies to address the development of myopia and promote mental health in children and adolescents. Methods: From September to October 2024, a stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select 6 605 students in grade 4 to 12 in 2 urban and 2 suburban districts in Xuzhou. The students health condition and influencing factors questionnaire were used to assess students basic information, sleep time, and screen time. The Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) was used to assess primary and secondary school students depressive symptom.Unaided distance visual acuity examination was conducted, and refractive assessment was performed using an automated refractometer without cycloplegic agents. The Chi-square test and multiple Logistic regression analysis were used to evaluate the association of sleep and screen time with the coexistence of screening myopia and depressive symptom. Results: The detection rates of screening myopia, depressive symptom, and screening myopia and depressive symptoms co morbidity among primary and secondary school students in Xuzhou were 60.35%, 4.45% and 18.61% respectively. Results from the multinomial Logistic regression analysis, using the healthy group as the reference and after adjusting for confounding factors, showed that students with insufficient sleep duration were more likely to have depressive symptom ( OR=1.57, 95%CI =1.08-2.27) and the coexistence of screening myopia and depressive symptom ( OR=1.85, 95%CI =1.45-2.36). Students with daily screen time≥2 h were more likely to have depressive symptom only ( OR=1.41, 95%CI =1.04-1.93) and the coexistence of screening myopia and depressive symptom ( OR=1.31, 95%CI =1.06-1.61). Further stratified analysis based on sufficient and insufficient sleep duration revealed that only in the insufficient sleep duration group, students with daily screen time≥2 h had an increased risk of depressive symptom only ( OR=1.49, 95%CI =1.07-2.07) and the coexistence of screening positive myopia and depressive symptom ( OR=1.40, 95%CI =1.11- 1.77 ) (all P <0.05). Conclusions Primary and secondary school students with insufficient sleep duration and daily screen time≥2 h have higher risks of depressive symptoms and the coexistence of screening myopia and depressive symptoms. It is recommended to ensure adequate sleep duration and limit screen time for children and adolescents.

Cancer represents a major worldwide disease burden marked by escalating incidence and mortality. While therapeutic advances persist, developing safer and precisely targeted modalities remains imperative. Nanomedicines emerges as a transformative paradigm leveraging distinctive physicochemical properties to achieve tumor-specific drug delivery, controlled release, and tumor microenvironment modulation. By synergizing passive enhanced permeation and retention effect-driven accumulation and active ligand-mediated targeting, nanoplatforms enhance pharmacokinetics, promote tumor microenvironment enrichment, and improve cellular internalization while mitigating systemic toxicity. Despite revolutionizing cancer therapy through enhanced treatment efficacy and reduced adverse effects, translational challenges persist in manufacturing scalability, longterm biosafety, and cost-efficiency. This review systematically analyzes cutting-edge nanoplatforms, including polymeric, lipidic, biomimetic, albumin-based, peptide engineered, DNA origami, and inorganic nanocarriers, while evaluating their strategic advantages and technical limitations across three therapeutic domains: immunotherapy, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. By assessing structure-function correlations and clinical translation barriers, this work establishes mechanistic and translational references to advance oncological nanomedicine development.

Osteoporosis is common in elderly population.The risk of falls and bone fractures in elderly patients with osteoporosis are closely related to the elderly syndrome[1].This article introduces the coexistence of osteoporosis and geriatric syndrome,which will limit the functional independence of patients and lead to more complex medical man-agement.Osteoporosis has some association with common geriatric syndromes,and patients with osteoporosis are more likely to suffer from more geriatric syndromes,and their quality of life and prognosis are worse.This article re-views epidemiological status,influencing factors and management strategies of osteoporosis comorbid with geriatric syndrome,aiming to provide a basis for the integrated management of osteoporosis.

Objective To investigate the mechanism by which artesunate(ART)attenuates intestinal mucosal barrier damage in acute graft-versus-host disease(aGVHD)and the synergistic effect of ART in combination with dexamethasone(DXM)in the treatment of aGVHD mice.Methods The aGVHD mouse model was established by bone marrow haematopoietic stem cell transplantation.The mice were divided into 9 groups,including normal mice control(Ctrl),aGVHD mice(aGVHD),normal mice receiving ART[30 mg/(kg·d)],aGVHD mice receiving low-dose ART[10 mg/(kg·d)],aGVHD mice receiving medium-dose ART[30 mg/(kg·d)],aGVHD mice receiving high-dose ART[50 mg/(kg·d)],aGVHD mice receiving DXM[20 mg/(kg·d)],aGVHD mice receiving ART[30 mg/(kg·d)]and DXM[20 mg/(kg·d)],and aGVHD mice receiving ART[30 mg/(kg·d)]and halved DXM[10 mg/(kg·d)].Survival rate and clinical parameters were assessed.HE staining and Alcian blue-periodic acid-Schiff(AB-PAS)staining were used to observe the histopathological changes in the intestinal mucosa of the mice;Real-time PCR,Western blotting and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the structure of the intestinal mucosal barrier,the T cell differentiation related transcription factors and cytokines,and the key enzymes of energy metabolism.Flow cytometry was used to detect the T helper cell 17(Th17)and regulatory T cells(Treg).Results After 30 days of ART treatment,aGVHD mice showed significant relief of systemic symptoms and increase in survival rate.In aGVHD mice treated with ART,the intestinal mucosal barrier structure was restored,and the intestinal mucosal permeability was reduced.The activity of AMP-activated protein kinase(AMPK)/mTOR pathway was inhibited,and the energy metabolism pattern of T cells was dominated by fatty acid synthesis.The balance of Th17/Treg was restored due to the decrease of Th 17 and the increase of Treg.The effect of ART+DXM treatment on aGVHD mice was comparable to that of DXM treatment alone,and the survival rate of mice was higher.In particular,the recovery of the intestinal mucosal barrier function was most obvious in the mice treated with ART+half-dose DXM.Conclusion ART reduces the immune injury of allo-T cells to the intestinal mucosal barrier by recovering the Th17/Treg balance,thus maintaining the integrity of the intestinal mucosal barrier function.The synergistic effect of ART and DXM combination treatment in aGVHD mice can reduce the incidence of DXM side effects by decreasing the dosage of DXM.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and further analyze the application prospects of the combined multitarget fecal FIT-DNA assay in the early screening of colorectal cancer.Methods Subjects were selected from a population attending the Inner Mongolia Medical University Hospital.Each subject underwent a combined multi-target fecal FIT-DNA test(experimental group),a serum tumor marker test and enteroscopy(control group).The pathological results were used as the gold standard to evaluate the efficacy of novel fecal molecular testing techniques for colorectal cancer screening with timely intervention given to screen positive individuals.Results The data of 115 individuals were analyzed.Serum tumor markers test had a sensitivity of 63.2%(43/68)and a specificity of 74.5%(35/47).The enteroscopy had a sensitivity of 97.1%(66/68)and a specificity of 80.7%(38/47);the combined multitarget fecal FIT-DNA test had a sensitivity of 89.7%(61/68)and a specificity of 87.2%(41/47).Conclusion The sensitivity and specificity of multitarget fecal FIT-DNA combined detection are better than those of serum tumor marker detection.Although its sensitivity is lower than enteroscopy,its operation is simpler and can be tested at home.

Objective To quantitatively assess the influence of various factors on the pharmacokinetic parameters of propofol and to develop a propofol population pharmacokinetic model tailored for Chinese patients.Methods Thirty patients scheduled for selective abdominal surgeries received an anesthesia dose of propofol at 2.0 mg·kg-1.The concentration of propofol in collected venous blood samples was measured using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.Polymorphisms in metabolizing enzyme genes were detected through Sanger sequencing technology.Pharmacokinetic parameters were computed,and models were constructed and evaluated using Phoenix Winnonlin software.Results Through software analysis,the drug's in vivo process was best described by a three-compartment model.The population mean values for the central compartment clearance rate(CL),shallow peripheral compartment clearance rate(Q2),deep peripheral compartment clearance rate(Q3),central compartment volume of distribution(V),shallow peripheral compartment volume of distribution(V2),and deep peripheral compartment volume of distribution(V3)were 1.71 L·min-1,1.31 L·min-1,1.51 L·min-1,5.92 L,19.86 L and 99.06 L,respectively.Body weight was identified as a significant covariate affecting CL and V,and was incorporated into the model.Conclusion The evaluation of the final model demonstrates its substantial predictive capability,offering directional guidance for the clinical administration of propofol.

Objective Acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) is the leading cause of hospitalization and death in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Exploring the prognostic factors of AECOPD patients will assist in optimizing treatment strategies and standardizing disease management. Methods This study retrospectively collected the clinical data of 664 patients with AECOPD admitted to the Respiratory Department of Dongzhimen Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine from January 2013 to September 2019. The 3-year survival rate and treatment of the patients were investigated. According to whether the patients died,they were divided into a non-survivors group and a survivors group,and clinical data such as basic information,comorbidities,and auxiliary examination results were compared between the two groups. Incorporating clinical experience of researchers and previous research evidence,a secondary screening of variables was conducted to ultimately determine the covariates to be included in the multifactorial Cox proportional hazards regression model,and the factors affecting the 3-year survival rate of the patients were analyzed. Results A total of 664 cases were included in this study,including 362 males and 302 females,with an average age of (77.25±6.89) years old. The 3-year all-cause mortality rate of older hospitalized patients with AECOPD was 20.48％(136 patients). Older age (HR:1.071,95％CI:1.040-1.102,P<0.001);smoking history (HR:1.788,95％CI:1.173-2.723,P=0.007);Charlson comorbidity index (HR:1.209,95％CI:1.029-1.421,P=0.022);lower arterial partial pressure of oxygen (HR:1.014,95％CI:1.006-1.022,P<0.001);higher brain natriuretic peptide(HR:1.001,95％CI:1.000-1.001,P=0.025);cor pulmonale(HR:1.896,95％CI:1.235-2.908,P=0.004);respiratory failure (HR:2.437,95％CI:1.378-4.311,P=0.003);TCM syndrome differentiation elements,including kidney (HR:1.639,95％CI:1.055-2.546,P=0.028) and fluid retention (HR:2.512,95％CI:1.653-3.816,P<0.001),were independent risk factors for 3-year all-cause death of older hospitalized patients with AECOPD. Long-term regular use of bronchiectasis (HR:0.474,95％CI:0.324-0.695,P<0.001) was an independent protective factor for 3-year all-cause death. Conclusion The 3-year survival rate of elderly hospitalized patients with AECOPD is relatively low,with the TCM syndrome elements manifested as lung-kidney qi deficiency,yang deficiency with water retention,and blood stasis obstruction. Patients with moderate to severe impairment of lung function due to COPD have an increased risk of death within 3 years. Therefore,for such patients,nourishing lung-kidney qi,resolving phlegm and water retention,activating blood circulation to remove blood stasis and dredging collaterals,combined with regular use of bronchodilators,may help improve their 3-year survival rate.

From the perspective of state differentiation and treatment， it is believed that the pathogenesis of acute respiratory distress syndrome （ARDS） is that evil poisons injured the lungs， and the lung qi suddenly collapsed， then blocked and exhausted， and the qi failure to control blood and liquid， then the fluids overflow outside the vessels， and damp phlegm， stasis， and toxins became knotted up in the body， which ultimately leads to qi dysfunction， and a series of symptom arise， so qi impairment is the principal mechanism of ARDS. A combination of Chinese and Western medicine was proposed to treat ARDS by combining tangible qi and intangible qi， using Chinese herbal medicine to boost qi and relieve collapse， percolate and drain dampness with bland medicinals， resolve toxins and dissolve stasis， and regulate qi， and combining with Western medicine to assist qi circulation to improve qi's consolidation， propulsion， and transformation， so as to make the evil qi go away， the positive qi restored， the viscera qi circulated， qi， blood， yin， and yang connected， and the activities of life maintained， and thus to achieve the goal of treating ARDS by integrated Chinese medicine and Western medicine.

Methamphetamine(METH)is highly addictive and neurotoxic,which causes cognitive and memory dysfunction in abusers.The harm of METH lies not only in its own toxicity,but also in the high physical and mental dependence of drug addicts,often causing mental disorders and violent behavior,bringing great safety risks to society.Non-coding RNA(ncRNA)does not encode proteins and is an important factor in regulating gene expression at the post-transcriptional level.Studies have shown that ncRNA plays an important regulatory role in methamphetamine-induced addiction and neurotoxicity,but the specific mechanism is unclear.This article reviews the current research progress of ncRNA in regulating METH-induced addiction and neurotoxicity to provide a reference for ncRNA as a forensic identification index and potential therapeutic target for METH abusers.

Aim To express and purify recombinant hCGH-CTP fusion protein in high-density suspension culture of Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO-S), and to verify the lipid accumulation effect of rhCGH-CTP on 3T3-L1 mature adipocytes. Methods The recombinant protein expression vector (pcDNA3. 1-rhCGH-CTP) was constructed, achieved by fusing the human glycoprotein hormone beta 5/alpha 2 cDNA with CTP Linker. The expression plasmid was transiently transfected into the suspended CHO-S to express rhCGH-CTP protein and then purified, and the protein biological activity was verified. Intervention with 3T3-L1 mature adipocyte cells for 24 h was performed to detect the changes of intracellular triglyceride (TG) level. Results Western blot results showed that rhCGH-CTP protein was successfully expressed in CHO-S cells, and the yield was up to 715. 4 mg • L~ . The secreted protein was purified by AKTA pure system with higher purity that was up to 90% as identified by SDS-PAGE. In addition, the intracellular cAMP content of mature adipocytes with high expression of TSHR gene significantly increased after intervention with different concentrations of rhCGH-CTP protein by ELISA kit, indicating that rhCGH-CTP protein had biological activity. Oil red 0 staining showed that compared with the control group, the lipid content of mature adipocytes in the intervention groups with different concentrations of rhCGH-CTP protein significantly decreased (P < 0. 05) . Conclusions The rhCGH-CTP protein has been successfully expressed and purified with biological activity, and effectively reduce TG. This research provides an important theoretical basis for further revealing the physiological role of CGH protein and its potential application in clinical practice.
