Abstract The processs of female Osteoporosis and its prevention by Physical activity were simulated using anisotropic bone remodelling model with mechanostat combining with finite element method. The results show that bone mass declines slowly at the beginning, bone loss accelerates in postmenopause and bone mass declines 25. 84%-28.63% at the age of 60 and 38.50%-40.44% at the age of 80. Bone mass increases 3.05%-10.26% by an increase of 10%-20% in physical activity. The above results are consistent with clinical observations,which proves that declination of mechanical usage is the primary factor leading to osteoporosis, menopause quickens the process of female osteoporosis, physical activity can decelerate it.

Objective:pH low insertion peptide (pHLIP)-variant 7 (var7)-fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) was used to explore an accurate imaging tool that targeted burn wounds to better perform burn debridement.Methods:Twelve rat models of burn wound were established and pHLIP-var7-FITC with different concentrations (0.5, 1.5 and 2.0 mg/ml) were injected from the rat tail vein for in vivo fluorescence imaging. By determining the concentration of fluorescent conjugates to the burn wound, the scope of wound injury necrosis was judged by combining pathological sections, and its residue and toxicity in important organs such as heart, liver, kidneys, and brain were detected. The Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test, Bonferroni correction method and one-way analysis of variance were used for data analysis. Results:Within 24 h, the fluorescence photons per unit area of the burn wound in the group of 0.5 mg/ml, 1.5 mg/ml and 2.0 mg/ml were 1.49(1.31, 1.65), 2.46(1.88, 2.68), 2.77 (1.94, 3.10)×10 7 p·s -1·cm -2·Sr -1, with significant differences in the overall distribution of fluorescence photons ( H=73.55, P<0.001). The fluorescence intensity was stronger in the group with higher concentration, but with no significant difference in the number of fluorescence photons between the group of 1.5 mg/ml and 2.0 mg/ml ( P=0.263, Bonferroni correction method). At 14 time points (0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 12, 24 h), there was no significant difference in the overall mean of fluorescence photons ( F=1.04, P=0.419), and the tissue with burn necrosis seen in tissue sections was highly consistent with the fluorescence imaging region. There was no obvious fluorescence residue in the heart, liver, kidney and brain sections. Conclusion:In superficial second-degree burn tissue, pHLIP-var7-FITC can accurately target and gather on the burn wound within 24 h, showing a clear boundary between burn tissue and normal tissue, which can assist clinical surgical debridement to determine the extent of injury.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features of pediatric patients with intracranial primary non-germinomatous germ cell tumors (NGGCT) and evaluate the treatment outcomes and prognostic factors of NGGCT.Methods:Clinical data of 40 children with NGGCT who were treated with radiotherapy (RT) at our department between November 2008 and June 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Ninety percent of them received craniospinal irradiation (CSI). All children received platinum-based chemotherapy. Survival analysis was conducted using the Kaplan-Meier estimate. The prognostic factors were analyzed by log-rank test.Results:The primary sites were pineal gland, sellar / suprasellar region and basal ganglia. The median age of onset was 108 months (20-204 months). The median follow-up time was 33 months (8-131 months), and the 3-year and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates were 82.0%. The 3-year and 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) rates were 78.6% and 73.0%. Univariate analysis showed that increased alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) ( P=0.02), age at first diagnosis>10 years ( P=0.006), metastasis at first diagnosis ( P<0.001), and the pathological type (choriocarcinoma, yolk sac tumor and / or embryonal carcinoma) ( P=0.036) were independent adverse prognostic factors. Conclusions:Increased AFP, age>10 years at first diagnosis, tumor metastasis and pathological type were independent adverse prognostic factors of NGGCT. The overall prognosis of NGGCT children is worse than that of their counterparts with germinoma, and multidisciplinary intensive therapy is needed to improve survival.

Objective:
To investigate child injury prevention practice and associated factors among parents of primary school students.
Methods:
Parents of 2 577 students were selected from three primary schools in three administrative regions of Shanghai by multi stage sampling method between May and June in 2021. Questionnaire survey was administered to parents based on the Index System for Assessing Parent s Ability on Child Injury Prevention, which was developed previously by the present research group. Results were converted into standardized scores for descriptive analysis, and the original scores were analyzed by multiple linear regression model.
Results:
The standardized scores of parents on environment safety, product safety, behaviors and skills and psychological safety were (0.91±0.08)(0.93±0.08)(0.97±0.04)(0.95±0.05), respectively. The standardized score of general ability was (0.95±0.04). The standardized scores on knowledge, attitude and practice of injury prevention were (0.99±0.03)( 0.97± 0.05)(0.89±0.10), respectively. Mothers performances were generally better than fathers . Parents with higher education performed better than those with lower education. Parents with "being a parent" in mind performed better on child injury prevention.
Conclusion
There is a gap between practice with the knowledge as well as attitude towards child injury prevention among parents of primary school students. Parenting role, educational background and parental awareness of the importance of parental role are primary factors that affect child injury prevention practice.

Gliomas are commonly central nervous system tumors. The conventional treatment is surgical resection combined with chemoradiotherapy, but glioma patients often have a poor prognosis. Therefore, there is an urgent need to identify new potential targets in gliomas and develop more effective treatments. Valproic acid has the properties of histone deacetylase inhibitor, which has been proven to have inhibitory effects on various tumors. It is confirmed that valproic acid could promote apoptosis and cell arrest of glioma cells, inhibit cell invasion and glioma stem cells, increase the sensitivity of glioma cells to radiotherapy and chemotherapy by regulating ERK/Akt signaling pathway, Akt/mTOR signaling pathway, and regulating expression levels of RECK, MGMT, Nrf2, PON2, Smad4, GSK3β and other proteins. In addition, valproic acid can also enhance the effectiveness of anticancer drugs by inhibiting the growth of glioma stem cells and inducing their differentiation. In conclusion, valproic acid can inhibit glioma through multiple targeted actions, and may become a new targeted drug for the treatment of glioma.
