Objective To compare zinc-finger BED domain-containing 3 ( ZBED3 ) expression in various tissues of C57BL/6J mice and the effects of liraglutide, glucose, and insulin on the levels of ZBED3 protein expression in C57BL/6J mice and db/db mice. Methods The mRNA level of ZBED3 in various tissues of C57BL/6J mice was measured by realtime PCR. The protein level of ZBED3 was measured by using western blot. Results ZBED3 mRNA levels were detected in muscle, spleen, kidney, brain, heart, lung, and liver of C57BL/6J mice, yielding the highest expression in muscle. Additionally, The liver ZBED3 levels were higher in db/db mice compared with C57BL/6J mice (P<0. 01). Furthermore, the protein expression of ZBED3 was significantly increased in liver tissues of db/db mice treated with high concentrations of liraglutide, glucose or insulin(P<0. 05), however, the expression of ZBED3 only responded to high concentration of glucose in liver tissues of C57BL/6J mice. Conclusion ZBED3 may act as a novel factor in regulating glucose metabolism. The expression of ZBED3 can be regulated by liraglutide, glucose, and insulin. Thus, ZBED3 may play an important role in conditioning of hyperglycemia.

Objective:
To apply eye-tracking technology to measure the fixation duration of children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) towards emotional faces, so as to provide potential objective indicators for the diagnosis and intervention of ASD.
Methods:
Case-control studies related to emotional faces in ASD children and adolescents aged 3-18 years were searched in PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI and Wanfang, with a search period spanning from the inception of the databases to April 1, 2024. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) was employed to assess the quality of the retrieved articles, and a Meta analysis was conducted by Stata 17.0 software.
Results:
A total of 18 articles were included, encompassing 361 participants in the ASD group and 413 in the control group. All studies scored ≥6 on the NOS, indicating high research quality. Compared to the control group, the ASD group demonstrated significantly shorter fixation duration ( P <0.01) towards specific emotional faces, including happy faces under the paradigm of self-made and same ethnicity emotional faces ( SMD =-1.05, -1.16), neutral faces in domestic literature ( SMD = -1.00), angry and sad faces under clinical diagnosis criteria ( SMD =-1.73, -1.29), and fearful faces under Chinese Classification and Diagnostic Criteria of Mental Disorders, Version 3 (CCMD-Ⅲ) ( SMD =-1.51).
Conclusion
Children and adolescents with ASD exhibit abnormal eye tracking indicators towards certain emotional faces, which may serve as early warning indicators for the diagnosis of ASD.

Objective:To investigate the role and influencing factors of case design in PBL teaching.Methods:Thirty-two six-year-program undergraduates from the Department of Medicine of Peking University in batch 2014 and batch 2015 were selected as the subjects. PBL teaching was used in the practice class of experimental diagnostics. The feedback effects of four times PBL courses were analyzed by collecting questionnaires for teachers, students, and supervisors. The data obtained from the five-point questionnaire and the question-and-answer questionnaire were analyzed by one-way ANOVA and statistics respectively. Then the problems in case preparation process are discussed and the experience of case design is summarized. SPSS 13.0 was used in this study.Results:The 5-point questionnaire showed that the average score of anemia PBL course was the highest among students' self-evaluation and mutual evaluation of teachers and students (4.84 points, 4.79 points), with statistical significance compared with other courses ( P<0.05). The question-and-answer questionnaire survey showed that 93.75% of the students generally agreed with the teaching model of anemia cases; 78.13% and 59.38% of the students believed that it was difficult to set up cases of infection and coagulation, which affected the classroom effect; and 50% of the supervisors thinked that the students' level should be taken into account in case design and oral expression should be avoided. Conclusion:Case design is the key to PBL teaching. Summarizing the experience of case design can lay a good foundation for the establishment of PBL teaching database.

Objective:
To evaluate the effects of physical activity interventions based on social ecology model, and to explore promising approach for increasing physical activity of students in large cities.
Methods:
A quasi-experimental design with parallel control was implemented. Students from grade 4 in 20 primary schools in 3 districts of Shanghai were recruited. Based on social ecology model, physical activity interventions were carried out in three levels: personal, social-and physical environment. The interventions lasted for 6 months. Questionnaires, physical examinations and physical fitness tests were carried out. Rank sum test, chi-square test and logistic stepwise regression was used to analyze the intervention effects.
Results:
In the intervention group, the proportion of students who favored physical activity increased from 47.9% to 50.7%. Time spent in moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) increased from 64 min/d to 70 min/d, mainly during the weekend. The interventions showed significant effects, especially for girls. In the intervention group, the proportion of students spent 1 h/d in MVPA increased from 53.7% to 57.7%(χ2=4.95, P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that after intervention, the proportion of students spent more than 1 h/d in MVPA in the intervention group was higher than that in the control group (OR=1.22, 95%CI=1.02-1.48, P=0.03).
Conclusion
Physical activity interventions based on social ecology model can increase uptake of physical activity among school students.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between body fat percentage (BF%) and high blood pressure among adolescents in Shanghai, and to provide basis for early prevention and intervention of cardcovascular diseases. Methods: By using stratified cluster sampling method, a total of 5 148 adolescent students in 16 schools from 16 districts of Shanghai were selected. Questionnaire survey and physical examination were performed. The bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) was used to measure body fat percentage. National Blood Pressure Reference for Chinese Han Children was used to define high blood pressure. And T test, chi-square test and Logistici regression were used to assess the relation between BF% with high blood pressure. Results: The prevalence of high blood pressure in 5 148 junior middle school students in Shanghai was 10.98%, with girls (13.13%) higher than boys (8.99%)(χ 2=22.48, P<0.01). The average total body fat percentage of male students was (20.90±10.73)%, which decreased with age (linear trend variance is 10.04, P<0.01). The average total body fat percentage of girls was (25.14±8.03)%, which increased with age (linear trend variance is 69.23, P<0.01). After adjusted for age, diet, exercise and other influencing factors, the prevalence of hypertension showed an increasing trend with the increase of body fat percentage for both boys and girls. The risk of high blood pressure in boys with BF%≥P 90 was 12.43 times higher than that in boys with BF%
Conclusion
There was a positive correlation between body fat percentage and high blood pressure in adolescents. The prevalence of high blood pressure increased with the increase of body fat percentage, which was more obvious in boys.
