OBJECTIVES:
To investigate the mechanism through which salidroside inhibits proliferation of gastric cancer (GC) cells focusing on glucose metabolic reprogramming pathways.
METHODS:
High-throughput sequencing combined with bioinformatics analysis was employed to identify the potential targets of salidroside in human GC MGC-803 cells. Liposome-mediated transfection experiments were carried out to validate the functional and mechanistic roles of these targets. CCK-8 and colony formation assays were used to assess the effects of salidroside on GC cell viability and clonogenic ability. qRT-PCR, Western blotting, and biochemical assay kits were used to analyze the regulatory effects of salidroside on the miR-1343-3p-OGDHL/PDHB enzyme complex-pyruvate metabolic pathway in GC cells.
RESULTS:
Bioinformatics analysis suggested that the tumor-suppressive factor miR-1343-3p negatively regulated the key glycolytic enzyme gene oxoglutarate dehydrogenase-like (OGDHL) in GC cells, and OGDHL and pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 subunit beta (PDHB) were both significantly upregulated in GC tissues, which was close by correlated with reduced survival rates of GC patients. In MGC-803 cells, salidroside treatment significantly enhanced the expression level of miR-1343-3p and downregulated OGDHL expression, resulting in disruption of the stability of PDHB, reduced pyruvate oxidative decarboxylation, and consequently decreased production of acetyl-CoA and ATP.
CONCLUSIONS
Salidroside inhibits GC cell proliferation possibly by regulating the miR-1343-3p-OGDHL/PDHB enzyme complex-pyruvate metabolic pathway, which provides new insights into its anti-tumor mechanisms and suggests new strategies for targeted therapy for GC.

Objective:To investigate the clinical applicability of the four-grade grading(G4) advocated by the academy in recent years compared with the guideline-recommended three-grade grading(G3) in functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR).Methods:A total of 137 consecutive patients were prospectively included from outpatient and inpatient clinics at Tangdu Hospital, Air Force Medical University from May to December 2023. All patients underwent echocardiography and were graded for regurgitation based on the 2017 American Society of Echocardiography Valve Evaluation Guidelines as the reference standard. The patients with regurgitation were grouped according to the G3 based on the guidelines and the G4 advocated by the academic community in recent years, respectively. The consistency of the regurgitation grading between multi-indicators and single-indicators was analyzed using the Kappa test for both G3 and G4. The quantitative regurgitation relevant parameters were analyzed using ROC curves to evaluate the diagnostic efficacies for G4, including the vena contracta width (VCW), the area of the color flow jet (A Jet), and the radius of the PISA (R PISA). Results:The results of consistency analysis showed that the consistency of regurgitation volume (RVol) was significantly higher in the G4 multi-indicators comprehensive assessment versus the single-indicators assessment compared with the G3, with a Kappa value of 0.84 vs. 0.30. The consistency of effective regurgitant orifice area (EROA) and VCW remained unchanged, with a Kappa value of 0.76 vs. 0.89, 0.51 vs. 0.66. ROC curve analysis showed that for the G4, the area under the curve (AUC) for moderate regurgitation were 0.854, 0.993, and 0.894, respectively, while for moderate-severe regurgitation, these values were 0.899, 0.979, and 0.917, respectively.Conclusions:For FTR, the G4 currently advocated by the academic community has better consistency between single-indicators and comprehensive indicators grading than the G3 based on the guideline, which is clinically applicable; A Jet, R PISA, and VCW can be supplemented to the G4, which helps to improve the quantitative assessment system.

Objective:To explore the influence of interpregnancy interval (IPI) on pregnancy complications in multiparas.Methods:This was a retrospective cohort study involving 7 669 singleton parturients who delivered at ≥28 gestational weeks in the Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University between December 2015 and December 2020 and had given birth in the third trimester before. Clinical data were collected, including the baseline characteristics, pregnancy complications, gestational weeks at delivery, and neonatal birth weight. According to the IPI, these women were divided into five groups: <12 months ( n=350), 12-<24 months ( n=945), 24-<60 months ( n=2 544), 60-<120 months ( n=2 478), and ≥120 months ( n=1 352). Based on the recommendation of the World Health Organization, pregnant women with an IPI of 24-<60 months were the control group. A multivariate logistic model was used to adjust for confounders and calculate the risks of pregnancy complications, including gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP). The influences of maternal age and previous delivery mode on the associations between IPI and maternal complications were analyzed. Analysis of variance (ANOVA), Chi-square test, and Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel Chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results:Compared with the control group, the incidence of GDM and HDP increased in the 60-<120 months group ( OR=1.23, 95% CI: 1.01-1.48 and OR=1.47, 95% CI: 1.13-1.92) and ≥120 months group ( OR=1.37, 95% CI:1.07-1.78 and OR=1.92, 95% CI: 1.39-2.64); the risks of uterine rupture/postpartum hemorrhage and placental abruption increased in the <12 months group ( OR=1.54, 95% CI: 1.01-2.34) and 12-<24 months group ( OR=2.38 95% CI: 1.13-5.02), respectively. In the 60-<120 months group, the risk of GDM increased only in non-elderly women (adjusted OR=1.71, 95% CI: 1.36-2.14), so did the risks of GDM and HDP in the ≥120 months group (adjusted OR=3.11, 95% CI: 2.10-4.62 and adjusted OR=1.81, 95% CI: 1.12-2.91). Among women who had undergone a previous cesarean section, the risk of GDM increased in the ≥120 months group (adjusted OR=1.35, 95% CI: 1.00-1.81). In the 60-<120 months group and ≥120 months group, the risk of HDP increased in postpartum women (adjusted OR=1.79, 95% CI: 1.08-2.95 and adjusted OR=3.32, 95% CI: 1.91-5.77). Conclusion:IPI≥60 months is a risk factor for GDM and HDP, and the associations between IPI and maternal complications are influenced by maternal age.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2023;44(5):649-653
Objective:
To explore the correlation between different nutritional status and depressive symptoms among adolescents, so as to provide a theoretical basis for targeted improvement of nutritional status and depressive symptoms in adolescents.
Methods:
A total of 8 102 adolescents aged 12-17 years in Shanghai, Urumqi, Changsha and Kunming were selected by random cluster sampling. Depressive symptoms were assessed by the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale(CES-D). Height and weight were measured. Kruskal Wallis H test, Chi square test and ordinal Logistic regression were used to analyze the relationship between nutritional status and depressive symptoms in adolescents.
Results:
The overall detection rate of depressive symptoms in adolescents was 25.6%, with girls (30.1%) higher than that of boys (21.1%) ( χ 2=87.60, P <0.01). There were statistically significant differences in the scores of depressive symptoms among girls with different nutritional status ( Z =8.34, P <0.05). The detectable rate of depressive symptoms increased with BMI among girls( χ 2 trend =6.04, P <0.05). After controlling for confounding factors, ordinal Logistic regression showed that the obese girls had higher risks in depressive symptoms detection compared with normal weight girls ( OR=1.45, 95%CI=1.10-1.91, P <0.05).
Conclusion
The nutritional status of girls is better than boys, but the prevalence of depressive symptoms is higher than boys. The risk of depressive symptoms in girls increases with BMI.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2023;44(5):659-663
Objective:
To explore the correlation between non suicidal self injury(NSSI) behaviors and depressive symptoms in adolescents and to provide a theoretical basis for improvement of adolescent physical and mental health.
Methods:
A total of 8 102 adolescents aged 12-17 years were selected by random cluster sampling method in Shanghai, Urumqi, Changsha and Kunming, using the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) and the Adolescent Non Suicidal Self Injurious Behavior Assessment Questionnaire. Depressive symptoms and the occurrence of NSSI behaviors were assessed. The relationship between NSSI behaviors and depressive symptoms was analyzed using Chi square test, one way analysis and Logistic regression analysis.
Results:
The overall detection rate of NSSI in adolescents, 24.6%, with a significantly lower detection rate in boys (23.1%) than in girls (26.2%) ( χ 2=10.97, P <0.05), and 24.7%, 24.6% in the middle school and high school segments, respectively, but the difference was not statistically significant ( χ 2=0.01, P >0.05). The overall detection rate of adolescent depressive symptoms was 49.7 % in the group with NSSI and 17.7% in the group without NSSI, with statistically significant differences ( χ 2=808.80, P < 0.01 ). The detection rates of adolescent depressive symptoms in the group with NSSI (male:44.0%, female:54.7%, middle school:49.6%, high school:49.8%) and the group without NSSI (male:14.2%, female:21.4%, middle school:14.3%, high school: 21.0 %) were statistically significant by sex and age groups ( χ 2=385.58, 412.44, 520.60, 313.78, P <0.01). Logistic regression models, after adjusting for gender and age, the risk for depressive symptoms was 2.65 times (95% CI =2.27-3.09) and 7.28 times (95% CI = 6.34- 8.37) more frequently in adolescents with episodic self injurious behavior and frequent self injurious behavior, respectively, compared to those without self injurious behavior. The association between NSSI status and depressive symptoms did not show sex differences ( P >0.05).
Conclusion
Adolescent NSSI behavior is positively associated with depressive symptoms, the attention should be paid to adolescent physical and mental health to reduce the occurrence of NSSI.

Objective:
To understand the relationship between family environment and depressive symptoms among adolescent, and to provide a reference for adolescent mental health promotion and intervention.
Methods:
From September to December in 2021, a questionnaire survey on family environment and depressive symptoms was conducted among 8 102 middle school students by random cluster sampling method in Shanghai, Urumqi, Changsha and Kunming. The Chi square test was used to compare the depression status of students in different family environments. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the relationship between family environment and depressive symptoms.
Results:
The detection rates of possible depression, likely depression and severe depression in adolescents were 11.2%, 5.9% and 8.4%, respectively. There were significant differences in the detection rate of depression by gender, academic period, urban and rural areas, family forms and only child statu( χ 2=87.60, 27.19, 6.65, 45.59, 4.78, P <0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that adolescents in single parent families ( OR =1.45) and reorganized families( OR =1.69) were positively correlated with the occurrence of depressive symptoms compared with those in nuclear families( P <0.01).
Conclusion
Compared with nuclear families, the risks of adolescent depressive symptoms in single parent families and reorganized families are higher. Attention should be paid to the mental health education of teenagers from single parents and reorganized families to ensure the development of their physical and mental health.
7.Research progress on influencing factors of depressive symptoms in adolescents
Chinese Journal of School Health 2023;44(5):786-790
Abstract
In recent years, mental health problems such as anxiety and depression among adolescents in China have attracted attention from all walks of life. Given that adolescence is a transitional and critical period for individual development, mental health affect the developmental opportunities. Therefore, in the review, the effects of environment, psychosocial factors and behavioral patterns on depressive symptoms are analyzed by combining with the characteristics of physical and mental development among adolescents. It is found that early adolescence and even childhood should be the key period for the prevention and intervention of depression. In order to formulate effective interventions and prevention strategies, it is proposed that future research should combine real situation in China with active exploration of protective factors and early predictors of depression.

Objective:
To understand the correlation between physical activity (PA) and socioeconomic status (SES) among Chinese children and adolescents, and to provide theoretical basis for physical activity promotion for Chinese children and adolescents.
Methods:
By using stratified random cluster sampling, a total of 4 269 children and adolescents aged 7 to 18 were selected from six cities in China from September to December 2018. Physical Activity Level Evaluation Questionnaire of Chinese Children and Adolescents Aged 7 to 18 was used to investigate PA and SES, and the height and weight were measured.
Methods:
In terms of different intensity of PA, the time spent on light intensity physical activity(LPA), moderate intensity physical activity(MPA), moderate to vigorous physical activity(MVPA)and total physical activity(TPA) in low SES group was 28.5(6.9,57.1) min/d, 46.2 (25.7,79.2) min/d, 61.4(34.3,101.9) min/d and 102.9(65.0,145.8)min/d respectively, which was higher than that in middle SES groups [ 21.4 (4.3,50.7), 37.1(18.6,65.7), 50.3(27.1,86.8), 85.7(49.3,127.1) min/d] and high SES groups [24.3( 5.0 ,54.3), 40.0(21.4,69.1), 54.3(32.9,91.4), 89.6(55.7,132.9) min/d]( P <0.01). In terms of different types of PA, the traffic PA [40.0(15.0,68.6) min/d] and entertainment PA[4.3(0,17.1)min/d] accounted the highest proportion in low SES group,while sports PA [36.4(20.7,60.7) min/d] accounted the highest proportion in high SES group( P <0.01).The compliance rates of MVPA in low, middle and high SES groups were 51.1%, 42.5% and 45.2%, respectively, and the differences were statistically significant ( χ 2= 22.02 , P <0.05). After controlling for confounding factors, the detection rate of MVPA in the low SES group was 1.24 times higher than that in the high SES group ( P <0.01).
Conclusion
The MVPA and TPA time of children and adolescents with middle SES group were the lowest. Physical activities spent on traffic and entertainment account highest in low SES group, while physical activities spent on sports account highest in high SES group.

Abstract
In recent decades, there is a decreasing trend in physical activity, which might be associated with decline in physical and mental health among children and adolescents in China. The outbreak and spread of the COVID-19 further aggravated this trend. Under the background of normalized epidemic prevention and control, in order to deeply understand the relationship between physical activity and physical and mental health of children and adolescents, this study sorted out relevant domestic and foreign literatures, and analyzed the effects of physical activity on children and adolescents health and fitness. The positive effects of physical activity, cognition, and mental health were found to be significantly different in the type, intensity, and time of physical activity in the related health effects.
