Objective:To investigate the effect of plasma exosome miR-18a-3p on of apoptosis and cell cycle cumulus cells (CCs) in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) via targeting CITED2.Methods:qRT-PCR assay was used to detect the expression of miR-18a-3p in plasma, plasma-derived exosome and CCs of patients no matter with PCOS and non PCOS. After being transfected with miR-18a-3p mimic, the exosome was co-cultured with CCs, the cell cycle distribution and apoptosis of CCs were detected by flow cytometry assays. Gene ontology (GO) analysis was performed and CITED2 was included in follow up experiments. pcDNA3.1-CITED was transfected into CCs and then co-cultured with exosome to explore the co-effect of miR-18a-3p and CITED2 on the cell cycle and apoptosis of CCs.Results:The plasma-derived exosome isolated from CCs with PCOS were identified successfully, and the expression of miR-18a-3p was significantly decreased in plasma, exosome and CCs in PCOS, compared with that in non-PCOS (all P<0.05) . CITED2 could be regulated as a target of miR-18a-3p in CCs. Compared with NC group, overexpression of miR-18a-3p could significantly decrease proportion of CCs cells in G0/G1 phase and inhibit their apoptosis in PCOS patients (all P<0.05) . The effect of over-expressing miR-18a-3p could be partially reversed by up-regulating CITED2 (all P<0.05) . Conclusions:Plasma exosomal miR-18a-3p has the effect to induce the S phase of CCs cells, subsequently inhibit apoptosis, then restrain the progression of PCOS. Plasma exosomal miR-18a-3p is expected to play a paramount role in the target therapy of PCOS.

Objective:
To investigate the clustering of health-risk behaviors and its influencing factors among children and adolescents in Yancheng City, Jiangsu Province, so as to provide insights into the prevention and control of health-risk behaviors among children and adolescents.
Methods:
Students were randomly sampled from 4 primary schools, 4 junior high schools and 4 senior high schools in Yancheng City using a multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method from September to December 2021. Students' demographics and 12 health-risk factors including unhealthy diet, insufficient physical activity and attempted smoking were collected using the Student's Health Status and Influencing Factors Questionnaire by Jiangsu Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention, and factors affecting the clustering of health-risk behaviors were identified using a multivariable linear regression model.
Results:
A total of 2 925 valid questionnaires were recovered, and the respondents included 1 611 boys (55.08%) and 1 314 girls (44.92%). A total of 2 896 respondents were detected with health-risk behaviors, with a detection rate of 99.09%, and 2 772 respondents were detected with clustering of health-risk behaviors (93.06%). Insufficient sleep, insufficient physical activity and insufficient duration of outdoor activity were predominant patterns of clustering. The median number of health-risk behaviors was 4.00 (interquartile range, 2.00) per capita. Multivariable linear regression analysis showed that boys (β=0.232), grade (junior high school, β=0.519; senior high school, β=0.427), urban area (β=0.241), living at school (β=0.395), family structure (single parental family, β=0.188; other families, β=0.344) and father's education level of primary school and below (β=0.369) were factors affecting clustering of health-risk behavior among primary and high school students.
Conclusions
The detection of health-risk behaviors is high among children and adolescents in Yancheng City, and insufficient sleep, insufficient physical activity and insufficient duration of outdoor activity are predominant health-risk behaviors. Boys, junior high school and above, urban areas, living at schools, single parents, and fathers with a low educational level lead to a high degree of clustering of health-risk behaviors.

Objective To explore the effects of partial body weight support treadmill training (PBWSTT) on motor function of lower extremities, walking ability and activities of daily living (ADL) in chronic hemiplegic patients after stroke. Methods28 patients with stable stroke (hemiplegic limbs Brunstrom s' scale≥Ⅲ) exceed 12 months after the onset were divided into PBWSTT group (n=14) and control group (n=14) randomly. Routine rehabilitation were used in the control group, and the PBWSTT group received PBWSTT in addition. They were assessed with Ashworth Spasticity Scale (ASS), Functional Ambulation Category (FAC), Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), and the Functional Independence Measurement (FIM) before and 8 weeks after the treatment. ResultsThe ASS,FAC, FMA and FIM scores were all improved after treatment in both groups (P<0.05). The scores of FMA, FAC and FIM in the PBWSTT group after treatment exceeded that of control group (P<0.05), but there was no difference in the ASS (P>0.05). ConclusionPBWSTT may improve the motor function of lower extremities, walking ability, and ADL in chronic hemiplegic patients after stroke.
