Objective:
To explore the relationship between snack consumption and depressive symptoms in first year junior high school students with different left behind experiences in Yunnan Province, so as to provide a basis for improving depressive symptoms among first year junior high school students with different left behind experiences.
Methods:
From October to December 2022,a cluster random sampling method was used to select 8 500 first year junior high school students from 11 ethnic minority areas (Fugong County, Longling County, Longyang District, Luchun County, Mojiang County, Nanjian County, Qiaojia County, Shuangjiang County, Tengchong City, Yuanmou County, Zhenyuan County) in Yunnan Province for a questionnaire survey. The Chinese version of Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 was applied to assess depressive symptoms in first year junior high school students, and snack consumption was collected by employing food frequency questionnaire. The generalized linear model was used to analyze the association between first year junior high school students snack consumption and depressive symptoms, and the analysis was stratified according to left behind experience.
Results:
The detection rates of depressive symptoms among firstyear junior high school students with and without left behind experience were 36.25% and 26.91%, respectively. After controlling for confounding variables, the generalized linear model analysis showed that sweet snacks ( β=0.16, 95%CI =0.07-0.25), fast food ( β=0.14, 95%CI =0.04-0.23) and carbonated drinks ( β=0.09, 95%CI =0.01-0.17) of first year junior high school students with left behind experience (all P <0.05). Compared with those without such behavior, the risk of depressive symptoms was higher in consumption of fast food ( β=0.13, 95%CI =0.07-0.18) and carbonated drinks ( β=0.10, 95%CI =0.06-0.15)among first year junior high school students without left behind experience (both P <0.05).
Conclusion
Snack consumption among first year junior high school students in Yunnan may increase the risk of developing depressive symptoms, while first year junior high school students with left behind experience may have a greater risk of developing depressive symptoms.

Objective: To translate the common metrics for donation attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavioral control, and intention for the blood donation context (BD-ASPI) into Chinese, and to test its reliability and validity among college students. Methods: A research team was established. Following Beaton's cross-cultural adaptation guidelines, the BD-ASPI was translated, culturally adapted, and pre-tested to develop the Chinese version. Using convenience sampling, 620 students from four universities in Wuhan were surveyed form August to November 2024 to test the scale's reliability and validity. Results: The Chinese version of the scale consisted of 21 items across four dimensions: attitude towards blood donation, subjective norm, perceived behavioral control, and intention. The item-level content validity index ranged from 0.89 to 1.00, and the average scale-level content validity index was 0.984. Confirmatory factor analysis indicated a good fit for the second-order factor model. The Criterion validity was 0.509 (P<0.001). The overall Cronbach's α coefficient was 0.965, with the coefficients for each dimension ranging from 0.891 to 0.974. The test-retest reliability was 0.894. Conclusion: The Chinese version of the BD-ASPI demonstrates good reliability and validity, and can serve as an effective tool for assessing the behavioral intention of voluntary blood donation among college students in China.

ObjectiveHeadspace solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(HS-SPME-GC-MS) and GC-triple quadrupole MS(GC-QqQ-MS) in combination with non-targeted and targeted metabolomics were employed to systematically analyze the chemical composition differences of Xihuangwan prepared with natural musk and artificial musk, and establish an identification system for them. MethodsThe volatile components of 9 batches of Xihuangwan samples from 8 manufacturers were analyzed by HS-SPME-GC-MS non-targeted metabolomics, and identified by comparing their MS data with the National Institute of Standards and Technology(NIST) spectral library. Orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis(OPLS-DA) was used to identify differential volatile components of Xihuangwan prepared with natural musk and artificial musk. Additionally, GC-QqQ-MS targeted metabolomics was applied to quantify the levels of α-pinene, β-elemene, muscone, dehydroepiandrosterone, bornyl acetate, and octyl acetate in 27 batches of samples from 9 manufacturers. Cluster analysis, principal component analysis(PCA), and partial least squares-discriminant analysis(PLS-DA) were conducted to further explore the differences in volatile components between Xihuangwan samples prepared with natural musk and artificial musk. ResultsNon-targeted metabolomics identified 291 volatile compounds in Xihuangwan, including alkanes, esters, alkanes, alcohols, ketones, naphthalenes and others. OPLS-DA analysis revealed distinct separation between Xihuangwan samples containing artificial musk(A1, C1, D1, E1, F1, G1, I1) and those containing natural musk(H1, H3). A total of 30 differential metabolites were identified. The relative contents of these 30 differential metabolites were visualized using a radar chart, revealing significant differences in the levels of octanol, borneol acetate and muscone. Cluster analysis and PCA results from targeted metabolomics indicated that Xihuangwan could be classified into two distinct groups:one composed of natural musk(H1, H3) and the other of artificial musk, sample H2. PLS-DA identified muscone, octyl acetate, and dehydroepiandrosterone as key differential volatile components. Although no significant difference was observed in the content of octyl acetate between the two groups, statistically significant differences were found for muscone and dehydroepiandrosterone(P<0.05). ConclusionMuscone and dehydroepiandrosterone can be used for the differentiation of Xihuangwan samples containing natural musk from those containing artificial musk. This study systematically and comprehensively analyzed the differences in the types and contents of major volatile components in Xihuangwan prepared with natural musk and artificial musk, providing a scientific basis for quality evaluation and control of Xihuangwan.

In modern society, the comorbidity of insomnia with amnesia has shown a significantly increasing incidence and become increasingly severe, emerging as a public health issue that endangers people's physical and mental health and quality of life. Anmei Dan (AMD), originally recorded in the Shishi Milu by CHEN Shiduo in the Qing Dynasty, possesses profound theoretical foundations and distinct clinical advantages in ameliorating insomnia with amnesia. Basic research has unequivocally confirmed its definite therapeutic effects on insomnia with amnesia and revealed partial mechanisms. AMD is therefore a veritable classic prescription embodying the principle of treating different diseases with the same method for insomnia and amnesia. However, few researchers have reviewed the related research progress. This article systematically summarized the theoretical connotations of traditional Chinese medicine in treating insomnia with amnesia, delineated the multi-component material basis of AMD in ameliorating insomnia with amnesia (including various chemical components such as ginsenosides, jujubosides, and salvianolic acids), and evaluate its multi-dimensional clinical efficacy (e.g., prolonging total sleep time, improving sleep efficiency, and enhancing memory). Moreover, it systematically summarizes the multi-pathway mechanisms of action. The results indicate that AMD has a clear material basis, definite clinical efficacy, and a favorable safety profile in ameliorating insomnia and amnesia. AMD may exert the therapeutic effect by regulating sleep-wake rhythms, enhancing synaptic plasticity, inhibiting neuroimmune inflammation, and modulating autophagy, oxidative stress, and energy metabolism. In conclusion, AMD exerts synergistic effects through multi-component, multi-dimensional, and multi-pathway approaches, serving as an important prescription for enriching and developing the theory of treating different diseases with the same method for insomnia with amnesia.

Objective To establish a rapid on-site detection method for detecting formaldehyde in workplace air using the length detector tube method. Methods The length detector tube was applied to detect the level of formaldehyde in workplace air. Performance indicators, including accuracy, precision, stability, and interference susceptibility, of the method were validated. Results The formaldehyde length detector tube can determine formaldehyde mass concentrations ranging from 0.05 to 4.00 mg/m³ at 25 ℃, covering 0.5 to 2.0 times the occupational exposure limit for formaldehyde (0.50 mg/m³). Under conditions of 10 to 35 ℃ and relative humidity <80.00%, the average recovery was 93.33%-101.67%, and all the within-run method ranges from -21.67% to 20.00%, and all the relative standard deviations were <10.00%. The average decrease rate of formaldehyde in gas bags within 24 hours ranged from -8.33% to 8.33%. Common coexisting substances in workplaces, such as methanol, benzene, toluene, hydrogen chloride, and nitrogen dioxide, did not interfere with the measurements. However, aldehydes and ketones might cause overestimation. Conclusion The formaldehyde length detector tube method demonstrates high accuracy and specificity for detecting formaldehyde in air, making it suitable for rapid monitoring of formaldehyde in workplace air.

Objective:To study the effect of anti-melanoma differentiation-related gene 5(MDA5) antibody positive dermatomyositis on the heart of patients.Methods:A total of 71 patients with dermatomyositis diagnosed in Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2019 were enrolled as the sample group, including anti-MDA5 (+) group( n=28); anti-MDA5(-) groups( n=43). Electrocardiogram and echocardiography were performed in the sample group and the control group. The electrocardiogram, echocardiography and other relevant clinical data of the anti-MDA5 (+) group, anti-MDA5 (-) group and the healthy control group were retrospectively analyzed. The logistic regression analysis model was used to analyze the related factors influencing cardiac involvement in anti-MDA5 (+) patients. Results:In the anti-MDA5 (+) group, more than half of the patients showed elevated levels of lactate dehydrogenase (21/28, 75%) and α-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (16/28, 57%), and 11%(3/28) showed elevated levels of creatine kinase isoenzyme and myoglobin. Compared with the anti-MDA5 (-) group, the white blood cell count in the blood routine of the anti-MDA5 (+) group [5.2 (4.0, 6.5) ×10 9/L vs. 7.8 (5.6, 10.6)×10 9/L, Z=-3.447, P=0.001], creatine kinase [62.5 (29.3, 108.3) U/L vs. 481.0 (179.0, 2 738.0) U/L, Z=-5.895, P<0.001], lactate dehydrogenase [313.0 (239.0, 362.0) U/L vs. 448.0 (291.0, 542.0) U/L, Z=-3.236, P<0.001], creatine kinase isoenzyme [1.9 (1.1, 3.9)ng/ml vs. 17.7 (4.0, 67.2) ng/ml, Z=-4.724, P<0.001], myoglobin [28.2 (20.0, 43.0) ng/ml vs. 307.4 (48.1, 612.2) ng/ml, Z=-4.800, P<0.001]. Electrocardiogram analysis showed that QRS axis [33.5±265.9 vs. 46.9±22.4, t=-2.900, P=0.004], SV1 amplitude [0.7 (0.4, 0.9) vs. 0.9 (0.7, 1.0), Z=-2.148, P=0.023] in anti-MDA5 antibody (+) group in anti-MDA5 antibody (+) group were lower than anti-MDA5 antibody (-) group. QRS duration [84.0 (78.0, 96.5) vs.92.0 (87.8, 100.5), Z=-2.900, P=0.004], QRS axis [33.5±265.9 vs. 46.9±20.4, Z=-2.32, P=0.023] in the anti-MDA5 antibody (+) group were lower than those in healthy control group. Echocardiographic analysis showed that the E peak of anti-MDA5 (+) group [63.0 (52.5, 69.5)] was significantly lower than that of anti-MDA5 (-) group [85.0 (68.0, 108.0), Z=-4.926, P<0.001)]and healthy control group [67.0 (62.8, 80.3), Z=-2.897, P=0.004]. The peak A of anti-MDA5 (+) group [65.5 (56.5, 80.0)] was significantly lower than that of anti-MDA5 (-) group [76.0 (65.0, 90.0), Z=-2.631, P=0.011], but higher than that of healthy control group [55.0(51.0, 66.5), Z=-4.550, P<0.001]. There was no significant difference in echocardiographic findi-ngs among the other groups. All patients with anti-MDA5 (+) dermatomyositis had interstitial lung disease (28/28, 100%). Patients with MDA5 antibody (+++) are more likely to have cardiac involvement than patients with MDA5 antibody (++). Conclusion:The results of relevant examinations in anti-MDA5-DM patients suggest that there is damage to myocardial cells and cardiac function.
