Objective: To explore the relationship between psychological resilience and attention bias towards negative information in secondary vocational school students, so as to provide reference for developing their mental health work. Methods: In May, 2024, 177 secondary vocational students were selected from the technical secondary vocational school by convenient sampling method. The experiment utilized a mixed experimental design of 2 (group: high psychological resilience group, low psychological resilience group) ×2 (type of stimulus: negative stimulus, neutral stimulus). Adolescents were divided into the high psychological resilience group ( n =32) and the low psychological resilience group ( n =31) based on their scores from the Adolescent Psychological Resilience Scale. Both groups completed the classical dot probing task, with correct rate, reaction time serving and attention biasvalues as primary indicators to assess attention bias. Repeated measures ANOVA was used to compare the reaction time and accuracy of attention bias tasks between two groups of participants, and Pearson correlation analysis was performed on the five dimensions of psychological resilience and attention bias values. Results: The low resilience group exhibited significantly faster response time to negative stimuli compared to neutral stimuli [(579.11±85.44, 586.13±78.92)ms, F (1,61)=5.93, P <0.05]. Additionally, the accuracy of responses to negative stimuli in the low resilience group was significantly lower than that of neutral stimuli [(0.93±0.12, 0.95±0.09), F (1,61)=12.81, P <0.01]. Attention bias values were significantly higher in the low resilience group (7.03±18.43) compared to the high resilience group (-2.54±13.39) ( t =2.36, P <0.05). Pearson correlation analysis revealed a marginally significant negative correlation between the interpersonal assistance (2.85±0.77) and attention bias values (2.20±16.65) ( r=-0.25, P <0.05). Conclusion Secondary vocational school students with low psychological resilience showed a significant attention bias towards negative emotional stimuli, which may render them more susceptible to such stimuli.

CRISPR/Cas9-based therapeutics face significant challenges in penetrating the dense microenvironment of solid tumors, resulting in insufficient gene editing and compromised treatment efficacy. Current nanostrategies, which mainly focus on the paracellular pathway attempted to improve gene editing performance, whereas their efficiency remains uneven in the heterogenous extracellular matrix. Here, the nanoCRISPR system is prepared with self-cascading mechanisms for gene editing-mediated robust apoptosis and transcellular penetration. NanoCRISPR unlocks its self-cascade capability within the matrix metallopeptidase 2-enriched tumor microenvironment, initiating the transcellular penetration. By facilitating cellular uptake, nanoCRISPR triggers robust apoptosis in edited malignancies, promoting further transcellular penetration and amplifying gene editing in neighboring tumor cells. Benefiting from self-cascade between robust apoptosis and transcellular penetration, nanoCRISPR demonstrates continuous gene transfection/tumor killing performance (transfection/apoptosis efficiency: 1st round: 85%/84.2%; 2nd round: 48%/27%) and homogeneous penetration. In xenograft tumor-bearing mice, nanoCRISPR treatment achieves remarkable anti-tumor efficacy (∼83%) and significant survival benefits with minimal toxicity. This strategy presents a promising paradigm emphasizing transcellular penetration to enhance the effectiveness of CRISPR-based antitumor therapeutics.

Cemental tear is a rare and indetectable condition unless obvious clinical signs present with the involvement of surrounding periodontal and periapical tissues. Due to its clinical manifestations similar to common dental issues, such as vertical root fracture, primary endodontic diseases, and periodontal diseases, as well as the low awareness of cemental tear for clinicians, misdiagnosis often occurs. The critical principle for cemental tear treatment is to remove torn fragments, and overlooking fragments leads to futile therapy, which could deteriorate the conditions of the affected teeth. Therefore, accurate diagnosis and subsequent appropriate interventions are vital for managing cemental tear. Novel diagnostic tools, including cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), microscopes, and enamel matrix derivatives, have improved early detection and management, enhancing tooth retention. The implementation of standardized diagnostic criteria and treatment protocols, combined with improved clinical awareness among dental professionals, serves to mitigate risks of diagnostic errors and suboptimal therapeutic interventions. This expert consensus reviewed the epidemiology, pathogenesis, potential predisposing factors, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of cemental tear, aiming to provide a clinical guideline and facilitate clinicians to have a better understanding of cemental tear.

Objective:To compare the accuracy of dynamic navigation system,fully-guided and Pilot-drill guided implant surgery in anterior dental aesthetic area.Methods:45 patients underwent single tooth implantation in anterior dental aesthetic area were random-ly divided into 3 groups(n=15).Dynamic navigation system imlanting(A),3D printing fully-guided template with ASTRA EV assis-ted orthopedic implantation(B)and Pilot-drill guided implantation(C)were respectively used for the patients in group A,B and C.The deviation between the preoperative design and actual results were measured by CBCT and/or 3D reconstruction with navigation de-sign software or 3SHAPE software.SPSS 25.0 software package was used and(x)±s was used for descriptive analysis,results were pair-wise compared among the 3 groups using ANOVA.Results:Data were normally distributed and the variance of the data was homoge-neous.In group A,the distance deviation of implant top center was(0.571±0.196)mm,the horizontal deviation was(0.405±0.222)mm,the distance deviation of implant apical center was(0.449±0.267)mm,the vertical deviation was(0.312±0.223)mm,the de-viation of the connection angle between the two centers was 2.257°±0.989°.In group B,those were(0.520±0.242)mm,(0.219±0.201)mm,(0.643±0.284)mm,(0.464±0.292)mm and 1.272°±0.951° respectively.In group C those were(1.179±0.365)mm,(0.667±0.276)mm,(1.518±0.566)mm,(0.967±0.444)mm and 2.568°±0.632°.The deviation of all the measurments of group A and B was lower than those of group C(P＜0.05).The deviation of the connection angle between the 2 centers of group B was less than that of group A(P＜0.05),but no statistical significance(P＞0.05)was found in other 4 measured items.Conslusion:The accuracy of the dynamic navigation system and the fully-guided implantation is significantly higher than that of the Pilot-drill guided implantation,but is not statistically significant between dynamic navigation and the fully-guided system.

Objective:To investigate the difference of the attention bias of the resilience level of professional technicians in hospital to negative information.Methods:A total of 383 professional technicians of logistics admin-istrative posts in a third-level military hospital were selected and divided into high and low groups according to their scores on the resilience scale(the top 27％of the participants were in the high resilience group,and the bottom 27％were in the low resilience group).There were 22 participants in each of the high and low resilience groups that met the requirements.The attention bias test was conducted on the professional technicians in the high and low resil-ience groups using the Dot-probe Paradigm.A mixed experimental design of 2(group:low resilience group,high re-silience group)x 2(stimulus clues:negative stimulus,neutral stimulus)was adopted.The dependent variables were correct rate and reaction time.Results:The interaction between the response group and the stimulus cue was statisti-cally significant(P＜0.05),the response time of negative stimulus in low resilience group was lower than that of neutral stimulus.The main effect of the cue condition was statistically significant in both groups(P＜0.05),the correct rate of negative stimulus was lower than that of neutral stimulus.Conclusion:This study shows that the pro-fessional technicians in the high resilience group do not have obvious attention bias to negative information,while the professional technicians in the low resilience group have obvious attention bias to negative emotional informa-tion.

Objective:To investigate grey matter volume changes and their correlation with the severity of anxiety in adolescents with major depressive disorder (MDD) accompanied by anxious distress specifier (ADS).Methods:From June 2022 to June 2023, totally 71 inpatients with MDD in the child and adolescent psychiatry department of Anhui Mental Health Center were included. According to the definition of ADS in the DSM-5, MDD adolescents were divided into the group with anxious distress (MDD/ADS+ group, n=44) and the group without anxious distress (MDD/ADS- group, n=27). Healthy adolescents matched in terms of gender, age, education level were recruited as the control group (HC group, n=19). Voxel-based morphometry (VBM) was used to compare changes in grey matter volume among the three groups.Grey matter volume values of brain regions with significant differences between the MDD/ADS+ group and MDD/ADS- group were collected, and their correlation with Hamilton anxiety rating scale (HAMA) score were analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis using SPSS 26.0 software. Results:Compared to the MDD/ADS- group, the MDD/ADS+ group showed a significant decrease in grey matter volume in the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (MNI: x=16.5, y=34.5, z=52.5, t=4.48, P<0.05) and the right cerebellum (MNI: x=49.5, y=-69.0, z=-24.0, t=5.18, P<0.05). In MDD adolescents, the grey matter volumes of the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and the right cerebellum were negatively correlated with HAMA score ( r=-0.249, -0.491, both P<0.05). Conclusion:In adolescents with MDD accompanied by ADS, a decrease in gray matter volume is observed in the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and the right superior cerebellum. These brain regions may serve as potential biological markers for the severity of anxiety in adolescents with MDD.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between spinal Mas-related gene receptor C (MrgC) and pathophysiological mechanism of bone cancer pain in mice.Methods:Forty male C3H/HeNCrlVr mice, aged 5-7 weeks, weighing 20-25 g, were selected and divided into 4 groups ( n=10 each) using a random number table method: sham operation group (group S), bone cancer pain group (group P), bone cancer pain + MrgC agonist group (group P-agonist) and bone cancer pain + Mrg C antagonist group (group P-Ab). Preparation of the bone cancer pain model: mouse fibrosarcoma cells (NCTC2472) were injected into the upper tibia of mice in P, P-agonist and P-Ab groups, and the equal volume of D-Hanks balanced salt solution was given instead in S group. Fourteen days later cerebrospinal fluid was intrathecally injected in S and P groups, and MrgC agonist and MrgC antibody were intrathecally injected in P-agonist and P-Ab groups. The mechanical paw withdrawal threshold (MWT) to von Frey stimuli was measured before developing the model (T 0), at 7 days after developing the model (T 1), at 14 days after developing the model (before intrathecal injection, T 2), and at 4, 8 and 12 h after intrathecal injection (T 3-5). Results:Compared with group S, no significant change was found in the MWT at T 0 ( P>0.05), and the MWT was significantly decreased at T 1-T 5 in the other groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group P, the MWT was significantly increased at T 3-T 5 in group P-agonist, and the MWT was significantly decreased at T 3-T 5 in group P-Ab ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Spinal MrgC plays an endogenous protective role in the pathophysiological mechanism of bone cancer pain to a certain extent in mice.

This study was performed to investigate the impact of nobiletin(NOB)on fracture healing in osteoporosis(OP)rats through the stimulator of interferon gene(STING)/nuclear transcription factor kappa B(NF-κB)signal pathway.A rat model of OP fracture was established by ovariectomy and right femoral shaft fracture intramedullary fixation;the rats after modeling were randomly grouped into model group,high dose(NOB-H,30 mg/kg NOB),medium dose(NOB-M,20 mg/kg NOB),low dose(NOB-L,10 mg/kg NOB)NOB group and NOB-H+ STING activator(DMXAA)group(30 mg/kg NOB+25 mg/kg DMXAA),and 18 rats experienced only ovaries expose were used as sham operation group.After the intervention,the fracture healing status of rats were measured;Micro-CT was used to detect the changes of bone trabecular microstructure in rats;commercial kits were used to detect the serum levels of bone metabolism related indicators(alkaline phosphatase(ALP),calcium,phosphorus)and inflammatory factors(tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-1β(IL-1β));HE was used to detect the morphological changes and trabecular area of femur,while Western blot was applied to detect the expression of STING/NF-κB pathway related proteins.Compared with the control group,the fracture line in the model group was clear,the trabecular structure was disordered and the gap was large,furthermore,the levels of TNF-α and IL-1β,the expression of STING and p-NF-κB p65/NF-κB p65 were significantly increased,the trabecular area,the levels of ALP,calcium,phosphorus,and bone mineral density(BMD),bone volume fraction(BV/TV),bone trabecular number(Tb.N)and bone trabecular thickness(Tb.Th)were significantly decreased(P<0.05);compared with the model group,the fracture line of NOB-L group,NOB-M group and NOB-H group gradually blurred,the trabecular structure arranged orderly,and the gap gradually decreased,and the trend of the index changes mentioned above were opposite to that of the model group(P<0.05).STING activators attenuated the promotion of fracture healing by NOB in OP rats and increased the inflammatory responses.In conclusion,NOB can reduce inflammatory reaction and promote fracture healing in OP rats,which may be related to the inhibition of STING/NF-κB signal pathway.

Background Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) has neurotoxicity, which can induce the loss of hippocampal neurons in humans and animals and lead to spatial learning and memory dysfunction, but its mechanism is still unclear. Objective To observe the ferroptosis of mouse hippocampal neuron HT22 cells induced by 7,8-dihydroxy-9,10-epoxybenzo[a]pyrene (BPDE), an active metabolite of BaP, and to explore its potential mechanism, so as to provide a basis for the study of BaP neurotoxicity mechanism. Method Mouse hippocampal neuron HT22 cells were selected and divided into four groups: solvent control group and low, medium, and high concentration BPDE exposure groups (0.25, 0.50, and 0.75 μmol·L⁻¹). Cell survival was detected by CCK8 method. Cell morphology and ultrastructure were observed under light and electron microscopes. The levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and Fe²⁺ were detected by fluorescence probe method. Iron, 4-hydroxynonenoic acid (4-HNE), malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX) levels were detected with commercial kits. The expression levels of acyl-CoA synthase long chain family member 4 (ACSL4), cyclooxygenase 2 (COX2), solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11), and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) were detected by Western blotting. After interventions with ferroptosis inhibitors 20 μmol·L⁻¹ deferoxamine (DFO) and 10 μmol·L⁻¹ ethyl 3-amino-4-cyclohexylaminobenzoate (Fer-1), the cell survival rate of each BPDE exposure group and the changes of the ferroptosis characteristic indicators and protein expression levels were observed. Results With the increase of BPDE concentration, the survival rate of HT22 cells decreased gradually, and the survival rate of each BPDE group was significantly lower than that of the solvent control group (P<0.01). Under light microscope, the number of cells in the high concentration BPDE group was significantly reduced, and atrophic cells and reduced synapses were recorded. Under electron microscope, the HT22 cells in the high concentration BPDE group showed mitochondrial shrinkage, decreased crista, and increased mitochondrial membrane density. Compared with the solvent control group, the levels of intracellular lipid ROS, Fe²⁺, 4-HNE, and MDA significantly increased in the high concentration group (P<0.01), the GSH and GSH-PX levels were significantly decreased (P<0.01), the protein expression levels of ASCL4 and COX2 were significantly increased (P<0.01), and the protein expression levels of SCL7A11 and GPX4 were significantly decreased (P<0.01). The ferroptosis inhibitors DFO and Fer-1 significantly reversed the cell survival rate (P<0.01), the ferroptosis characteristic indicators (ROS, Fe²⁺, 4-HNE, MDA, GSH, and GSH-PX levels) (P<0.01), and the expression levels of ferroptosis-related proteins (ACSL4, COX2, SLC7A11, and GPX4) (P<0.01) in the high concentration BPDE group. Conclusion BPDE can induce ferroptosis in mouse hippocampal neuron HT22 cells, which may be related to the inhibition of SLC7A11/GSH/GPX4 axis and the induction of iron metabolism disorder.
