Objective: To explore the associations of moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) and sedentary behavior (SB) among primary and secondary school students and their parents, so as to provide a scientific basis for formulating targeted physical activity promotion strategies for children and adolescents. Methods: From 2021 to 2022, basic information and 24 h movement behaviors of 2 484 pairs of students and their parents were collected from five primary and secondary schools in Haizhu District, Guangzhou City, with a convenient sampling combining with cluster sampling method. Component regression models were constructed to analyze the relationship between parental MVPA, SB and primary and secondary school students MVPA and SB, and a component isochronous substitution model was used to explore the effects of mutual substitution between parental MVPA, residual components (time use components other than SB during the 24 h period), and SB on the behavioral activities of MVPA and SB in primary and secondary school students. Results: Parental MVPA and SB of students in grade 1 to 3 were positively correlated with both students MVPA and SB ( β=0.06, 0.12, P <0.01). The component isochronous substitution model showed that substituting 10 and 20 minutes of MVPA for SB by parents in grade 1 to 3 was associated with an increase in MVPA of students, and substituting 10 and 20 minutes of residual ingredients for SB was associated with a decrease in SB of students, with mean changes of 0.8 (95% CI =0.4-1.2) and 1.4 (95% CI =0.7-2.2) and -1.4 (95% CI =-1.7 to -1.1) and -2.9 (95% CI =-3.4 to -2.3)( P <0.05). No statistically significant associations were observed between parents of students in grades 4 to 6 and 7 to 9 and students physical activity and sedentary behaviour ( P >0.05). Conclusions Parents of students in grades 1 to 3 increases MVPA and decrease SB are beneficial to increase MVPA and decrease SB of students. Parents could promote physical activity among primary and secondary school students, and the intervention gateway should be advanced, with the low grades as the optimal intervention period.

Objective: To analyze the association between different sleep statuses and overweight/obesity among primary school students, so as to provide a basis for the development of childhood overweight and obesity prevention and control strategies. Methods: In November 2023, a total of 3 391 primary school students of grade 1-6 from seven schools in Baoan District, Shenzhen, were surveyed by questionnaires and physical examinations by using multistage cluster sampling. The Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the association between primary school students sleep status and overweight/obesity. Results: The detection rate of overweight/obesity in primary school students was 22.59%, the detection rate of overweight/obesity in boys (27.04%) was higher than that in girls (17.44%), the only child (25.81%) had higher rates than nononly child (21.76%), and the differences were statistically significant (χ2=51.48, 5.98, P＜0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that, after controlling for confounders, primary school students weekend nighttime sleep duration (OR=0.83, 95%CI=0.75-0.91), weekly average nighttime sleep duration (OR=0.76,95%CI=0.64-0.89), and weekend compensated sleep duration (OR=0.89,95%CI=0.81-0.97) were negatively associated with the risk of developing overweight/obesity (P＜0.05). Compared with to primary school students with school days nap durations <0.5 h, those whose napped for 0.5-＜1 h and ≥1 h on school days had a 20% (OR=1.20, 95%CI=1.02-1.42) and 37% (OR=1.37, 95%CI=1.02-1.83) increased risk of overweight/obesity, respectively (P＜0.05). Conclusions Increasing weekend nighttime sleep duration, average weekly nighttime sleep duration, and weekend compensatory sleep duration can reduce the risk of overweight and obesity in primary school students. School days nap duration is a risk factor for overweight/obesity among primary school students.

Pyroptosis is a new type of programmed cell death that can efficiently enhance the immune response by inducing cell lysis and inflammation, thereby facilitating tumor immunotherapy. Recently, an increasing number of studies have revealed close relationships between pyroptosis and nanomedicine, which has been regarded as a new strategy for developing nanomedicine-based immunotherapy for highly effective therapy of various cancers. In this review, the development and associated signaling pathways for pyroptosis, including the correlation between pyroptosis and anti-tumor immunity, were first presented. Then, various nanomedicines that induce pyroptosis for tumor therapy, especially immunotherapy, were systematically discussed. Finally, the current challenges and constructive perspectives in this field were proposed.

Perineural invasion (PNI) by tumor cells is a key phenotype of highly-invasive oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Since Schwann cells (SCs) and fibroblasts maintain the physiological homeostasis of the peripheral nervous system, and we have focused on cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) for decades, it's imperative to elucidate the impact of CAFs on SCs in PNI⁺ OSCCs. We describe a disease progression-driven shift of PNI^- towards PNI⁺ during the progression of early-stage OSCC (31%, n = 125) to late-stage OSCC (53%, n = 97), characterized by abundant CAFs and nerve demyelination. CAFs inhibited SC proliferation/migration and reduced neurotrophic factors and myelin in vitro, and this involved up-regulated ER stress and decreased MAPK signals. Moreover, CAFs also aggravated the paralysis of the hind limb and PNI in vivo. Unexpectedly, leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) was exclusively expressed on CAFs and up-regulated in metastatic OSCC. The LIF inhibitor EC330 restored CAF-induced SC inactivation. Thus, OSCC-derived CAFs inactivate SCs to aggravate nerve injury and PNI development.

Background Repeated-sprint training in hypoxia (RSH) can improve athletic performance and reduce body fat in obese individuals. However, studies characterizing metabolic changes experienced by elite athletes before and after RSH are currently scarce in China. Objective To characterize the plasma metabolic profile alterations in elite athletes induced by a two-week RSH intervention using untargeted metabolomics, and to analyze the associations between differential metabolites and indices of blood lipids and body composition. Methods Blood samples from 11 elite athletes before and after 2 weeks of RSH were collected for metabolomics analysis and blood lipid analysis. Plasma metabolites were detected by liquid chromatographymass spectrometry (LC-MS) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) combined technology, and the differential metabolites before and after training were screened out by differential analysis. Key metabolic pathways were identified by Kyoto Encyclopedia of Gene and Genome Database (KEGG) enrichment analysis. Then, the correlations of blood lipid indexes and body composition indexes with differential metabolites before and after training were evaluated. Results Finally 20 differential metabolites were identified, among which 17 lipid metabolites were significantly up-regulated, and amino acids and their derivatives (1 type) and sugar derivatives (2 types) were significantly down-regulated. The results of KEGG enrichment analysis showed that the differential metabolites were mainly involved in three pathways closely related to RSH, namely hypoxia inducible factor 1-alpha (HIF-1) signaling pathway, cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) signaling pathway, and sphingolipid signaling pathway. The post-training analysis revealed significant increases in total cholesterol (P<0.05) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (P<0.001), as well as a significant decrease in triglycerides (P<0.01). There were minor decreases in body weight, body fat, body fat percentage, fat mass index (FMI), and fat-free mass (FFM) (P>0.05). After training, total cholesterol was negatively correlated with phosphatidylinositol (16:0/22:4) and D-fructose, HDL-C was negatively correlated with D-fructose and β-D-glucuronic acid, while body fat, body fat percentage, and FMI showed positive correlations with multiple carnitine fatty acid derivatives. Conclusion The 2-week RSH promotes the decomposition of lipid metabolites, increases the utilization of fatty acids, and reduces the accumulation of carbohydrate metabolites in elite athletes, which has a positive effect on the health of blood lipid metabolism. It may also help elite athletes regulate body fat by promoting lipid metabolism. Further research is needed in the future to validate these findings.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-positive bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-positive bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of National Bloodstream Infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）were collected during January 2022 to December 2022. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software were used to analyze the data.Results:A total of 3 163 strains of Gram-positive pathogens were collected from 51 member units，and the top five bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus（ n=1 147，36.3%），coagulase-negative Staphylococci（ n=928，29.3%）， Enterococcus faecalis（ n=369，11.7%）， Enterococcus faecium（ n=296，9.4%）and alpha-hemolyticus Streptococci（ n=192，6.1%）. The detection rates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus（MRSA）and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci（MRCNS）were 26.4%（303/1 147）and 66.7%（619/928），respectively. No glycopeptide and daptomycin-resistant Staphylococci were detected. The sensitivity rates of Staphylococcus aureus to cefpirome，rifampin，compound sulfamethoxazole，linezolid，minocycline and tigecycline were all >95.0%. Enterococcus faecium was more prevalent than Enterococcus faecalis. The resistance rates of Enterococcus faecium to vancomycin and teicoplanin were both 0.5%（2/369），and no vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium was detected. The detection rate of MRSA in southern China was significantly lower than that in other regions（ χ2=14.578， P=0.002），while the detection rate of MRCNS in northern China was significantly higher than that in other regions（ χ2=15.195， P=0.002）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in provincial hospitals were higher than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=13.519 and 12.136， P<0.001）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in economically more advanced regions（per capita GDP≥92 059 Yuan in 2022）were higher than those in economically less advanced regions（per capita GDP<92 059 Yuan）（ χ2=9.969 and 7.606， P=0.002和0.006）. Conclusions:Among the Gram-positive pathogens causing bloodstream infections in China， Staphylococci is the most common while the MRSA incidence decreases continuously with time；the detection rate of Enterococcus faecium exceeds that of Enterococcus faecalis. The overall prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococci is still at a low level. The composition ratio of Gram-positive pathogens and resistant profiles varies slightly across regions of China，with the prevalence of MRSA and MRCNS being more pronounced in provincial hospitals and areas with a per capita GDP≥92 059 yuan.

Objective:To explore the effects of the core symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and behavior problems on the sleep of children with ADHD and their correlation.Methods:In this cross-sectional study, a total of 289 children aged 6-12 years with ADHD who visited the Outpatient Department of the Center for Cognition and Sleep at the People′s Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from June 2021 to December 2022 were selected.The Swanson, Nolan and Pelham Rating Scale Ⅳ was used to assess ADHD core symptoms (attention deficit and hyperactivity-impulsivity), the Conners Parent Symptom Questionnaire was used to assess behavior problems (conduct, learning, psychosomatic symptoms, and anxiety), and the Sleep Disturbance Scale for Children (SDSC) was used to assess sleep.Multivariate Logistic regression, multivariate linear regression, and path analysis were performed for statistical analysis of the data.Results:Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that after controlling age, gender, verbal intelligence quotient and performance intelligence quotient, attention deficit ( P=0.008, OR=2.60, 95% CI: 1.28-5.28), psychosomatic symptoms ( P=0.027, OR=6.77, 95% CI: 1.24-36.93) and anxiety ( P=0.013, OR=3.96, 95% CI: 1.43-11.67) increased the risk of sleep disturbances in children with ADHD (SDSC score >39 points).Path analysis showed that attention deficit ( β=0.244, P=0.001), psychosomatic symptoms ( β=0.114, P=0.046) and anxiety ( β=0.216, P<0.001) directly affected the SDSC score.Hyperactivity-impulsivity indirectly affected the SDSC score through psychosomatic symptoms ( β=0.142, P=0.039), and attention deficit indirectly affected the SDSC score through anxiety ( β=0.321, P<0.001). Conclusions:The severer the core symptoms of ADHD and behavior problems are, the higher the degree of sleep disturbances in children with ADHD is.Psychosomatic symptoms and anxiety are directly associated with the sleep disturbances of ADHD children.Attention deficit has direct or anxiety-mediated indirect impact on the sleep of ADHD children.Hyperactivity-impulsivity indirectly affects the sleep of children with ADHD through psychosomatic symptoms.
