Objective: To explore the longitudinal associations between dietary macronutrients and lung function in schoolaged children, so as to provide the nutritional research evidence for promoting children s lung health. Methods: In November 2021, two primary schools located in Chengdu, Sichuan Province were selected from the Southwest China Childhood Nutrition and Growth (SCCNG) cohort by a stratified cluster random sampling method, enrolling a total of 1 112 school aged children aged 8 to 13 years. At baseline, the dietary and sociodemographic characteristics of the children were assessed. One year later, the forced vital capacity (FVC) of the children was measured and converted into Z scores (FVC- Z ), while the vital capacity index (VCI) was also calculated. Generalized linear regression analysis was employed to examine the associations between dietary macronutrients and lung function, considering interactions with gender and age, followed by stratified analysis. Results: After adjusting for confounding factors, the analysis results of the generalized linear regression model showed that the carbohydrate energy ratio was negatively correlated with FVC- Z ( β =-0.02) and VCI ( β =-0.16), while the fat energy ratio showed a positive correlation with FVC- Z ( β =0.03) and VCI ( β =0.23) ( P <0.05). The protein energy ratio was positively correlated with FVC- Z ( β =0.09) and VCI ( β =0.60) specifically in girls ( P <0.05). Additionally, there was an interaction effect of age on the associations between macronutrients and lung function ( P <0.01); in children aged 8-9 and 10-11, the carbohydrate energy supply ratio was negatively correlated with FVC- Z ( β =-0.04, -0.03) and VCI ( β =-0.29, -0.21), and fat energy supply ratio was positively correlated with FVC- Z ( β =0.07, 0.05) and VCI ( β =0.46, 0.32) ( P <0.05). Conclusions There are age and sex differences in the association of dietary macronutrients with lung function, with a low carbohydrate, high fat diet promoting lung function in children. Additionally, protein intake appears to have a positive influence on the lung function of girls. The early school age period may represent a critical window for dietary interventions aimed at promoting lung health.

Objective To explore the relevant relationship and specificity between the implicit and explicit loyalty of military cadets in order to provide a theoretical basis and objective indicators for a more comprehensive and objective assessment for individual loyalty.Methods E-Prime 2.0,a classic implicit association paradigm was employed to construct an implicit association loyalty test for 64 military cadets.Simultaneously,an explicit loyalty measurement was conducted using the Chinese Military Personnel Loyalty Scale.Results ① Significant implicit effect was observed in the loyalty assessment of military cadets,indicating a general tendency to perceive higher levels of personal loyalty and lower levels of loyalty to external entities.② Explicit loyalty assessment revealed that the participants had the highest loyalty score towards the Party,the Nation,and the People(4.79±0.34),followed by the loyalty score to their profession(4.38±0.53),and the relatively lower loyalty score towards the unit and leaders(4.03±0.83).Among the 3 dimensions of loyalty,the normative loyalty score ranked highest,while continuance loyalty score took lower.③ There were no correlations among the scores of loyalty to the Party,the Nation,and the People(r=-0.030,P=0.823),to the profession(r=-0.047,P=0.728),to the unit(r=0.050,P=0.710),or to the leaders(r=0.043,P=0.749).Conclusion The implicit effect in the loyalty assessment is significant in military cadets,and there is no significant correlation between explicit and implicit loyalty measurements.Thus,we cannot rely solely on explicit measurements to assess their loyalty attitudes.

Objective: To investigate the prospective effects of intake of each food group on the development of lung function of pupils,so as to provide theoretical basis for promoting the healthy development of lung function and preventing chronic respiratory diseases in Chinese children. Methods: A cluster stratified sampling method was used to select a total of 893 pupils in grades 2-5 from Chengdu in November 2021. Dietary data of respondents were collected using a food frequency questionnaire within the past year,then the food group intake was categorized into T1, T2 and T3 from low to high by the trichotomous method, and anthropometric measurements including lung capacity were obtained in 2022. Logistic regression models and test for trend were used to analyze the prospective effects of intake of each food group on lung function development of pupils. Results: Among male students, consumption of vegetables [118.6(50.5, 188.2)g/d] and milk and dairy products [200.0(73.3, 250.0)g/d] were higher in the excellent lung capacity group than in the non excellent lung capacity group [90.0(37.1, 192.9), and 178.6(35.7, 250.0)g/d],with statistically significant differences ( Z =-1.98, -2.24); among girls, the group with excellent lung capacity consumed less staple food [391.1(273.6, 511.4)g/d] than the group with non excellent lung capacity [407.4(309.5, 594.3)g/d], and the group with excellent lung capacity consumed more aquatic products [31.2(14.6, 69.8)g/d] and milk and dairy products [215.0(107.1, 250.1) g/d ] than that of the non excellent lung capacity [19.4(10.7, 58.3), 114.3(35.7, 250.0)g/d] ( Z =-2.01, -3.33, -5.10)( P < 0.05 ). After adjusting for energy, body mass index Z score(BMI Z ), mother s education level, averge family income monthly, whether presence of smokers in the living environment, and whether participation in physical activities during the past week, among male students, T3 group of vegetable intake ( OR =0.48, 95% CI = 0.27-0.86), T2 group of bean and soy product intake ( OR = 0.52 , 95% CI =0.27-0.96)，T2 and T3 groups of milk and dairy products intake (T2： OR =0.54, 95% CI =0.31-0.93; T3： OR = 0.52 , 95% CI =0.30-0.90) were negatively associated with non excellent lung capacity ( P <0.05). Among girls, T3 group of aquatic product intake( OR =0.52, 95% CI =0.28-0.97), T2 and T3 groups of milk and dairy product (T2: OR =0.44, 95% CI =0.25- 0.76 ;T3: OR =0.33, 95% CI =0.19-0.59) were negatively associated with nonexcellent lung capacity, whereas the T2 group of red meat intake ( OR =2.51, 95% CI =1.37-4.67) was positively associated with non excellent lung capacity. Non excellent lung capacity was found to be negatively associated with vegetable and milk and dairy product intake in boys by test for trend; in girls, milk and dairy products intake was negatively associated with non excellent lung capacity, whereas red meat intake was positively associated with non excellent lung capacity ( t =-1.13，-0.44；-3.03，1.95, P trend <0.05). Conclusions Milk and dariy products intakes reduce the risk of non excellent lung capacity in pupils, vegetables intakes reduce the risk of non excellent lung capacity in boys, and the intake of red meat increases the risk of non excellent lung capacity in girls. Promoting rational food choices is necessary for children to improve healthy lung development.

Objective To explore whether adiponectin receptor 1/2(AdipoR1/R2)mediates berberine to alleviate renal lipid toxicity in mice with diabetic kidney disease.Methods C57BLKS/J db/db mice and db/m mice were selected and divided into 4 groups,with 8 in each group.db/db mice and db/m mice were given berberine(150 mg·kg-1·d-)or placebo by gavage for 12 weeks,respectively.After intervention,blood glucose,blood lipids,urinary microalbumin/creatinine ratio and urinary albumin excretion rate were determined.Kidney tissues were taken for pathological examination,and oil red O staining,immunohistochemistry,ELISA and Western blotting were used to examine lipid deposition,AdipoRl/R2 expression and fibrosis markers expressions,etc.,respectively.The human glomerular endothelial cell line(HGEC)was used to verify the role of AdipoR1/R2 in berberine alleviating renal lipid toxicity.Results After berberine intervention,the body weight,blood glucose,lipids,proteinuria,renal lipid deposition,and renal pathological changes decreased in db/db mice(P＜0.05);the expressions of AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 increased,expressions of TGF-β1 and Col-Ⅳ decreased,and the expressions of PPAR-α and p-AMPK increased in kidney tissue of db/db mice(P＜0.05).In high-fat cultured HGEC cells treated with berberine-treated db/db mouse serum,the expressions of TGF-β1 and Col-Ⅳ decreased,while the expressions of PPAR-α and p-AMPK increased(P＜0.05);after AdipoR1/R2 on HGEC cells were silenced,the expressions of TGF-β1 and Col-Ⅳ increased,while the expressions of PPAR-α and p-AMPK decreased(P＜0.05).Conclusions Berberine can reduce renal lipid toxicity in diabetic nephropathy mice,and adiponectin receptor may mediate this effect of berberine.

In recent years, the high temperature and heatwaves have seriously affected the health of Chinese residents, and there is an important need for public health protection guidelines for high temperature and heatwaves in China. The National Bureau of Disease Control and Prevention has organized experts to fully investigate the evidence from epidemiological research on the health of populations in high temperature and heatwaves globally and in China, analyze the health hazards and protection needs of different populations, and put forward practical and effective individual protection measures and health recommendations. For this reason, the "Guideline for Public Health Protection against High Temperature and Heatwaves" (referred to as the "Guideline") was officially issued in June 2023. This article interprets the background and significance of the Guideline, the principles of compilation, the main considerations, the main contents, the implementations and promotions and other aspects, to improve the understanding of the content of the Guideline and strengthen the publicity and implementations.

Objective To investigate the role of knockdown of peroxiredoxin-6(PRDX6)in injury and adaptive expression of bile acid transporter in human hepatoellular carcinomas(HepG2)cells induced by rifampicin(RFP).Methods Cells in logarithmic growth phase were uniformly inoculated in six-well plates,and HepG2 cells were transiently transfected with specific PRDX6-siRNA and control-siRNA to construct the knockdown group and control group.After 24 h of induction with 100 μmol/L RFP,Western blot and qRT-PCR were performed to detect the protein and gene expression levels of PRDX6,multidrug resistance protein 1(MDR1),multidrug resist-ance-associated proteins 2,3 and 4(MRP2,MRP3 and MRP4),and Na+/taurine taurocholate cotransporter pro-tein(NTCP).Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining assay was used to detect the apoptosis rate of cells in each group;CCK-8 assay was used to detect the changes of cell proliferation in each group;The relative contents of ala-nine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),total bilirubin(TBIL),indirect bilirubin(IBIL)and total bile acid(TBA)in the supernatant of cell culture medium of each group were detected by kits.Results RFP increased the protein and gene expression levels of MRP2,MRP3,MRP4,MDR1,NTCP and PRDX6 in HepG2 cells(P<0.05),while the protein and gene expression levels of MRP2,MRP3,MRP4,MDR1 and NTCP decreased to different degrees after PRDX6 knockdown(P<0.05).In addition,PRDX6 knockdown re-sulted in increased apoptosis rate of HepG2 cells(P<0.05),decreased cell proliferation ability(P<0.05),and increased levels of cell injury markers(ALT,AST,TBIL,DBIL,TBA)in cell culture supernatants(P<0.05).Conclusion RFP increased the protein and gene expression of bile acid transporter and PRDX6 to increase in HepG2 cells.However,following knockdown of PRDX6 and treatment with RFP,the protein and gene expression levels of the bile acid transporter decreased and cell injury was aggravated,suggesting that PRDX6 played a protec-tive role in RFP-induced adaptive response in HepG2 cells.

Objective:To explore the application effect of intelligent referral mode in examinees with major positive results in physical examinations in a health medical center.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted from January 2022 to December 2023 with subjects receiving physical examinations. Those subjects with major positive results from January 2022 to December 2022 in the Health Medical Center of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University were selected as the routine referral group, and those with major positive results from January 2023 to December 2023 were selected as the intelligent referral group. The routine referral group received routine health education from the chief inspector in the health medical center, suggesting them to get outpatient consultation. On the basis of ordinary referral, the intelligent referral group received health education from a referral team composed of nurses and specialists based on internet technology to digitally integrate and share patients′ medical records, examination results, imaging data and other medical information. The subects in the intelligent referral group were provided with a green channel for outpatient consultation and medical treatment immediately. The visiting rate, hospitalization rate, average visiting time, and overall satisfaction of the subjects after being notified of abnormal results were compared between the two groups. According to the positive results, the subjects were divided into four subgroups: ultrasound examination group, radiology group, clinical laboratory group and blood pressure group.Results:After the notification, there were significant differences in hospital visit rate (84.8% vs 67.2%, χ 2=168.4), hospitalization rate (48.8% vs 36.5%, χ 2=17.80), average visit time (116 min vs 301 min, Z=-15.82), and overall satisfaction score (9.70±0.62 vs 8.29±1.26, t=-33.47) between intelligent referral group and general referral group (all P<0.01). The classification statistics of major abnormal results showed that the consultation rates in subjects with ultrasound, radiology, clinical laboratory and blood pressure abnormities in the intelligent referral group were all higher than those in the general referral group (87.9% vs 70.4%, 89.9% vs 70.6%, 80.6% vs 60.2%, 57.2% vs 41.3%, respectively; χ 2=41.91, 39.37, 19.37, 6.20, all P<0.05); the hospitalization rates in subjects with ultrasound, radiology and blood pressure abnormities in the intelligent referral group were all higher than those in the general referral group (66.8% vs 64%, 55.7% vs 42.2%, 18.7% vs 11.2%, respectively; χ 2=16.86, 11.91, 8.68, all P<0.05); the mean consultation times in subjects with ultrasound, radiology and clinical laboratory abnormities in the intelligent referral group were all significantly shorter than those in the general referral group (96 min vs 308 min, 110 min vs 300 min, 122 min vs 286 min, Z=-11.38, -9.27, -7.63, all P<0.01); the overall satisfaction scores in subjects with ultrasound examination, radiology, clinical laboratory and blood pressure abnormities in the intelligent referral group were all higher than those in the general referral group (9.69±0.60 vs 8.36±1.21, 9.09±0.62 vs 8.26±1.27, 9.74±0.69 vs 8.25±1.31; 9.68±0.59 vs 8.34±1.35, respectively; t=-18.47, -18.52, -14.42, -11.77, all P<0.01). Conclusions:The application of intelligent referral mode can improve the visiting rate and hospitalization rate of examinees with major positive results of physical examination, shorten their visiting time, and thus improve their satisfaction.

Objective To systematically evaluate the efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)in the treatment of recurrent spontaneous abortion and their regulatory effects of levels of peripheral blood Th17 cells and Treg cells.Methods Computer retrieval of CNKI,WanFang,VIP,SinoMed,FMRS,PubMed,Cochrane Library,Embase,Web of science and other databases were carried out.RCTS related to the regulation of Th17 and Treg cells by TCM in the treatment of recurrent spontaneous abortion,published from the establishment of the database to June 2023 were screened.Two reviewers evaluated the quality of the literature according to the Cochrane handbook.RevMan5.4 software was used for Meta-Analysis.Results A total of 10 studies that involved 1 052 patients were included.The Meta-Analysis results showed that compared to the control group,the effective rate[RR=1.20,95%CI(1.11,1.30),P＜0.000 01],live birth rate[RR=1.32,95%CI(1.16,1.50),P＜0.000 01]and the reduction of adverse drug reactions[RR=0.34,95%CI(0.14,0.83),P=0.02]were significantly improved by the intervention of TCM.After treatment with TCM,the expression of Th17 cells was decreased[MD=-0.71,95%CI(-1.01,-0.41),P＜0.000 01],and the expression of Treg cells was increased[SMD=1.21,95%CI(0.80,1.62),P＜0.000 01].The ratio of Th17/Treg cells was decreased[SMD=-2.62,95%CI(-4.09,-1.14),P=0.000 5].Conclusion TCM used for post-pregnancy or before and after pregnancy can significantly improve the clinical symptoms and live birth rate of patients with recurrent spontaneous abortion,wihch showed high safety.Moreover,TCM can reduce the expression of Th17 cells,up-regulate the expression of Treg cells and regulate the immune balance of Th17/Treg cells,which is conducive to embryonic development after pregnancy.
