Objective: To understand the impact of childhood trauma on psychological distress among upper grade elemetary school students, and to explore the mediating role of leisure activities in the relationship, so as to provide a basis for developing mental health intervention strategies. Methods: From August to November 2024, a combination of convenience sampling and stratified cluster random sampling was employed to recruit 1 373 fourth to sixth grade students from four primary schools in Harbin. The Childhood Trauma Questionnaire(CTQ), a self designed leisure activity scale (including active and passive leisure activities), and the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) were used to assess childhood trauma experiences, leisure activities, and levels of psychological distress. Spearman correlation analysis and linear regression analysis were conducted to explore the relationships among childhood trauma, leisure types, leisure time, and psychological distress. Based on the mediation analysis framework proposed by Hayes (Model 4), the mediating role of leisure types in the relationship between childhood trauma and psychological distress was examined. Results: Totally 19.1% of the upper elemetary school students exhibited psychological distress, while 30.2% had experienced childhood trauma. During school days, 64.6% of the students were reported of having leisure time concentrated between 1 and 5 hours per day, whereas 67.4% reported leisure time exceeding 5 hours per day on weekends. After controlling for potential demographic confounders such as gender, grade, ethnicity, household registration, being an only child, parents educational level, co residence, and whether parents are first time married,linear regression analysis showed that childhood trauma experience had positive predictive effect on psychological distress in upper primary school students( β =0.20, P <0.01). Leisure time showed no statistically significant association with psychological distress, both on school days ( β =-0.58 to -0.56) and weekends ( β =0.26- 0.98 )(all P >0.05). Active leisure activities were negatively associated with psychological distress ( β =-0.20), while passive leisure activities were positively associated with psychological distress ( β =0.29)(both P <0.01). Leisure type partially mediated the relationship between childhood trauma and psychological distress, accounting for 11.7% of the indirect effect. Conclusion Childhood trauma experiences positively predict psychological distress in upper elementary school students, and affect psychological distress through active leisure and passive leisure.

Objective: To explore the impact of sleep quality, experience of childhood maltreatment, and their interaction on depressive symptoms among middle school students, so as to provide the reference for early intervention of depressive symptoms among middle school students. Methods: From September to December 2023, a questionnaire survey was conducted among 1 231 students from two secondary schools in Harbin, Heilongjiang Province by a convenient sampling method. The survey included general demographic information, Childhood Trauma Questionnaire Short Form, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and Short Version of Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale. The Chi square test was used to analyze the differences in depressive symptom, sleep quality and childhood maltreatment among students with different demographic characteristics. Correlation analysis was conducted using Logistic regression, and interaction analysis was performed by both additive and multiplicative interaction models. Results: The detection rate of depressive symptoms among middle school students was 22.7%, and the rate for high school students (35.2%) was significantly higher than that for middle school students (17.0%) ( χ 2=50.35, P <0.01). The detection rates of depressive symptoms among middle school students with a history of childhood maltreatment and poor sleep quality were 45.8% and 44.0%, respectively. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that compared to students without a history of childhood maltreatment, students with a history of childhood maltreatment had a higher risk of depressive symptoms ( OR =4.49，95% CI =3.31~ 6.09 , P <0.01);students with poor sleep quality had a higher risk of depressive symptoms than students with good sleep quality ( OR = 5.99，95% CI =4.37~8.22, P <0.01).The interaction results showed that the presence of childhood maltreatment and poor sleep quality had an additive interaction on the occurrence of depression in middle school students. Compared with students without childhood maltreatment and having good sleep quality, students with childhood maltreatment and poor sleep quality had a 22.49 times higher risk of developing depression ( OR =22.49，95% CI =14.22~35.59, P <0.01). Conclusion Depressive symptoms among middle school students are associated with childhood maltreatment and poor sleep quality, and there is an additive interaction between childhood maltreatment and poor sleep quality on the impact of depressive symptoms.

Objective To explore the prognostic value of glycolysis-related genes in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients and formulate a novel glycolysis-related prognostic risk model. Methods Single-cell and bulk transcriptomic data of CRC patients, along with clinical information, were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases. Glycolysis scores for each sample were calculated using single-sample Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (ssGSEA). Kaplan-Meier survival curves were generated to analyze the relationship between glycolysis scores and overall survival. Novel glycolysis-related subgroups were defined among the cell type with the highest glycolysis scores. Gene enrichment analysis, metabolic activity assessment, and univariate Cox regression were performed to explore the biological functions and prognostic impact of these subgroups. A prognostic risk model was built and validated based on genes significantly affecting the prognosis. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) was conducted to explore differences in biological processes between high- and low-risk groups. Differences in immune microenvironment and drug sensitivity between these groups were assessed using R packages. Potential targeted agents for prognostic risk genes were predicted using the Enrichr database. Results Tumor tissues showed significantly higher glycolysis scores than normal tissues, which was associated with a poor prognosis in CRC patients. The highest glycolysis score was observed in epithelial cells, within which we defined eight novel glycolysis-related cell subpopulations. Specifically, the P4HA1⁺ epithelial cell subpopulation was associated with a poor prognosis. Based on signature genes of this subpopulation, a six-gene prognostic risk model was formulated. GSEA revealed significant biological differences between high- and low-risk groups. Immune microenvironment analysis demonstrated that the high-risk group had increased infiltration of macrophages and tumor-associated fibroblasts, along with evident immune exclusion and suppression, while the low-risk group exhibited higher levels of B cell and T cell infiltration. Drug sensitivity analysis indicated that high-risk patients were more sensitive to Abiraterone, while low-risk patients responded to Cisplatin. Additionally, Valproic acid was predicted as a potential targeted agent. Conclusion High glycolytic activity is associated with a poor prognosis in CRC patients. The novel glycolysis-related prognostic risk model formulated in this study offers significant potential for enhancing the diagnosis and treatment of CRC.

The OsSPL10 gene has previously been reported to positively regulate trichome development and negatively regulate salt and drought stress tolerance in rice. However, it is not clear whether this gene can be used for gene editing to create new germplasm of glabrous leaf and salt-tolerant rice. In this study, we created six rice mutants by CRISPR/Cas9-mediated editing of OsSPL10 from 'Xinfeng 2', 'Xinkedao 31', and 'Xindao 25', the main rice cultivars along the Yellow River. Visual observation and scanning electron microscopy verified that the mutants lacked trichomes on the leaves and glumes, and the expression of glabrous marker genes OsHL6, OsGL6, and OsWOX3B in mutants was down-regulated compared with that in the wild type. The net photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, and transpiration rate of flag leaves in the mutants were significantly higher than those in the wild type. In addition, the survival rates of the mutants were much higher than that of the wild type after 7 days of treatment with 200 mmol/L NaCl. The results of quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) further verified that compared with the wild type, the mutants demonstrated down-regulated expression of the salt stress-related gene OsGASR1 and up-regulated expression of OsNHX2 and OsIDS1. Statistical analysis of agronomic traits showed that the mutants had increased plant height and no significant changes in yield-related traits compared with the wild type. The six spl10 mutants created in this study not only had glabrous leaves and glumes but also demonstrated enhanced tolerance to salt stress, serving as new germplasm resources for directional breeding of rice along the Yellow River.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of simultaneous arthroscopic repair of anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) and calcaneofibular ligament (CFL) for treating chronic lateral ankle instability (CLAI) in conjunction with subtalar instability (STI).Methods:This is a retrospective case series study. The clinical data of 15 patients with ankle arthroscopic in the Department of Hand and Foot Surgery, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2019 to December 2022 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 11 male cases and 4 female cases, aged (28.6±1.5) years (range: 19 to 39 years). All the patients were evaluated by manual inversion stress X-ray and MRI before operation. Arthroscopically observing and then repairing the ATFL and CFL separately after further diagnostic confirmation. One year after operation, MRI was performed, and pain visual analogue score(VAS), American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society ankle hindfoot scale (AOFAS-AH) and Karlsson ankle functional scale(KAFS) were evaluated. Data were compared using paired sample t test. Results:The follow-up period was (23.6±2.3) months (range: 12 to 30 months). At last follow-up,the VAS decreased from 6.1±1.4 preoperatively to 1.4±1.2( t=9.482, P<0.01).The AOFAS-AH improved from 50.5±11.7 preoperatively to 94.2±6.1( t=-13.132, P<0.01), and the KAFS improved from preoperatively 44.3±10.8 to 90.8±6.4 ( t=-12.510, P<0.01). There was no complication such as recurred instability or joint stiffness. Conclusions:Arthroscopically repairing the ATFL and CFL separately can effectively restore the stability of the ankle and subtalar joint with small trauma. Patients can recover quickly after surgery. It provides a new idea for the clinical treatment of CLAI combined with STI.

Objective To investigate the characteristics and clinicopathology of v-raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog Bl(BRAF)V600E mutations in papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC)in Air Force flight personnel.Methods Data of cases and test results of BRAF V600E mutation were collected from Air Force aviators pathologically diagnosed with PTC.A univariate analysis of the relationship between BRAF V600E mutations and clinicopathologic features was performed.Results The overall rate of BRAF V600E mutations among 55 PTC flight crew members was 70.91％.The univariate analysis showed that the number of lymph node metastases in the BRAF V600E mutated group was larger than in the BRAF V600E unmutated group,and the proportion of BRAF V600E mutations in flight crews at intermediate risk of recurrence was higher than that in those at low risk of recurrence(P＜0.05).The presence or absence of BRAF V600E mutations did not affect the results of medical evaluation of PTC in flight personnel.Conclusion The rate of PTC BRAF V600E mutations in Air Force flight crews is similar to that of the general Chinese population.BRAF V600E mutations are associated with an increased number of lymph node metastases and risk of recurrence,and follow-up is recommended for flight personnel with PTC,especially those with BRAF V600E mutations.

Purpose To investigate the expression status of GNL3 in gastric cancer,and to explore the role of GNL3 in tumor proliferation,invasion and migration.Methods The ex-pression of GNL3 mRNA in gastric cancer tissues was analyzed by searching database.The expression of GNL3 protein in 51 gastric cancer tissues and 51 adjacent non-tumor tissues was de-tected by immunohistochemistry(IHC)SP method.The correla-tion between GNL3 protein expression and gastric cancer clinical pathological features was analyzed by x2 test.The expression of GNL3 in gastric cancer cells was silenced by transfection of sh-RNA,and the silencing efficiency was verified by Western blot.The effect of silencing GNL3 on the proliferation of gastric cancer cells was examined by CCK-8,colony formation and EdU stai-ning.In addition,wound-healing assay and Transwell assay were performed to detect the effect of GNL3 silencing on cell invasion and migration.Results SangerBox and UALCAN database re-trieval showed that the expression of GNL3 mRNA was signifi-cantly increased in gastric cancer tissues(P＜0.01).IHC stai-ning showed that the positive expression rate of GNL3 protein in gastric cancer tissues was 96.1％,and the high expression rate was 78.4％,which was significantly higher than that in adjacent non-tumor tissues(74.5％,51.0％,P＜0.01).Moreover,the high expression of GNL3 was significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis in gastric cancer patients(x2=4.933,P=0.026).CCK-8,colony formation and EdU staining showed that GNL3 silencing inhibited the proliferation of gastric cancer cell SGC-7901.The wound-healing and Transwell assay showed that GNL3 silencing inhibited the migration and invasion of gastric cancer cell.Conclusion The GNL3 protein is highly expressed in gastric cancer tissues,and closely related to the proliferation,migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical effect of Qingxin Zishen decoction on hot flashes after endocrine therapy for prostate cancer and explore its therapeutic mechanism. MethodA total of 60 patients who met the criteria and were admitted to Jiangsu Province Hospital of Chinese Medicine from December 2021 to December 2022 were collected and randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group， with 30 cases in each group. The treatment group was treated with Qingxin Zishen decoction， while the control group was only given routine nursing. The observation period of this study was eight weeks. The improvement of hot flash frequency， hot flash degree， hot flash score， ISS score， and TCM syndrome score were observed in the two groups before and after treatment. The changes of serum endothelin-1 （ET-1）， nitric oxide （NO）， calcitonin gene-related peptide （CGRP）， prostate specific antigen （PSA）， and testosterone were detected. ResultIn terms of efficacy， after treatment， the frequency， degree， and score of hot flashes， ISS score， and TCM syndrome score decreased in the treatment group （P<0.05）. Compared with the control group， all indicators were better in the treatment group （P<0.05）. In terms of laboratory indicators， after treatment， the serum NO level in the treatment group was increased. ET-1 level was decreased. The ratio of ET-1/NO was decreased， and the CGRP level was decreased （P<0.05）. However， testosterone and PSA levels were not significantly changed . Compared with the control group， after treatment， the serum NO level in the treatment group was higher， and the level of ET-1 was lower. The ratio of ET-1/NO and the CGRP level were lower （P<0.05）. There were no significant differences in testosterone and PSA levels between the two groups. ConclusionQingxin Zishen decoction can significantly improve hot flashes in patients with prostate cancer after endocrine therapy. The mechanism of Qingxin Zishen decoction may be to improve the vasomotor function by regulating the expression level of vasomotor factors， so as to treat hot flashes.
