Schizophrenia (SZ) stands as a severe psychiatric disorder. This study applied diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) data in conjunction with graph neural networks to distinguish SZ patients from normal controls (NCs) and showcases the superior performance of a graph neural network integrating combined fractional anisotropy and fiber number brain network features, achieving an accuracy of 73.79% in distinguishing SZ patients from NCs. Beyond mere discrimination, our study delved deeper into the advantages of utilizing white matter brain network features for identifying SZ patients through interpretable model analysis and gene expression analysis. These analyses uncovered intricate interrelationships between brain imaging markers and genetic biomarkers, providing novel insights into the neuropathological basis of SZ. In summary, our findings underscore the potential of graph neural networks applied to multimodal DTI data for enhancing SZ detection through an integrated analysis of neuroimaging and genetic features.

Objective To explore the preference of medical staff in public hospitals for various incentive factors,and to provide theoretical basis for the hospital to formulate a reasonable incentive system and stimulate the enthusiasm of medical staff.Methods Based on the discrete choice experiment,it was conducted from March 2023 to June 2023,through the method of multistage stratified random sampling,the medical staff of a general hospital,a Traditional Chinese Medical Hospital and a maternal and child health hospital in one city in the east,west,south,north and middle of Hainan Province were investigated by questionnaire,and analyzed their incentive preference and willingness to pay by using the mixed logit model.Results All the six attributes have significant influence on medical staff's incentive preference,among which,medical staff prefer to choose the incentive effect brought by the annual salary of 350 000 yuan,good working atmosphere and working intensity of 8 hours,while hospital development has little influence on incentive preference.Among the non-economic factors,when the working atmosphere changes from depression to good,they are willing to get an annual salary of 168 305.4 yuan less,while when the hospital development changes from nothing to good,they are only willing to get an annual salary of 12 433.14 yuan less.Conclusion According to the different incentive needs of medical staff,it is more helpful to formulate accurate incentive schemes and adopt economic and non-economic incentive means to stabilize the hospital talent team and improve work enthusiasm.

ObjectiveTo explore the possible mechanism of Tuina at Weizhong （BL 40） for relieving sciatica from the perspective of hippocampal synaptic plasticity. MethodsSixty SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group， model group， Tuina group， MK-801 group， MK-801 plus Tuina group， 12 rats in each group. After lateral ventricular cannulation， rats model with chronic compression injury of the right sciatic nerve were prepared in all groups except the sham operation group. On day 4 after modelling， rats in the Tuina group start Tuina at Weizhong （BL 40） for 10 mins once a day for a total of 14 days； rats in the MK-801 group started injecting with 0.25 μg/μl of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor 2B （NR2B） blocker， dizocycline （MK-801）， 0.5 μl of which was administered daily in the lateral ventricle for 14 days. Rats in the MK-801 plus Tuina group underwent Tuina after 30 mins when completing MK-801 injection in the lateral ventricle， in the same way as above； rats in the model group and the sham operation group did not undergo any intervention. Spontaneous pain behaviour scores and paw withdraw thresholds （PWTs） were examined on day 1 （base value） before modelling and on day 4， 10， 14 and 18 after modelling； and on day 19， the brain tissues of the rats in each group were sampled and the number and morphology of the Nysted-positive cells in the hippocampal CA3 region were observed using Nysted staining； and the number of synapses， the thickness of postsynaptic dense material， the length of active band and the curvature of synaptic interface in hippocampal CA3 region were observed by transmission electron microscopy； and the expression of synapse-associated proteins NR2B and postsynaptic density protein-95 （PSD95） in hippocampal CA3 was detected by immunofluorescence staining and immunoblotting. ResultsCompared with the same time in the sham operation group， spontaneous pain scores significantly increased and PWTs decreased on day 4， 10， 14， and 18 after modelling in the model group （P＜0.05）； compared with the model group， spontaneous pain scores in Tuina group of rats significantly decreased on day 10， 14， and 18 after modelling， and PWTs significantly increased on day 14 and 18 after modelling （P＜0.05）. Compared with Tuina group， spontaneous pain scores increased on day 10， 14， and 18 of modelling， and PWTs decreased at days 14 and 18 of modelling in the MK-801 plus Tuina group had higher spontaneous pain scores on days 10， 14， and 18 after modelling and lower PWTs on days 14 and 18 after modelling （P＜0.05）. Compared with the sham operation group， the neuronal arrangement in the hippocampal CA3 region of the rats in the model group was disordered， with decreased number of Nysted-positive cells and synapses， reduced thickness of postsynaptic densities， length of active bands， and curvature of synaptic interfaces， wider synaptic gaps， and decreased immunofluorescent positive expression of NR2B and PSD95 as well as the expression of immunoblotting proteins in hippocampal CA3 region （P＜0.05）. Compared with the model group， more dense arranged nerve cells， the number of Nysted-positive cells， the number of synapses， the thickness of postsynaptic dense material， the length of active bands increased， the synaptic gap became significantly narrower， and the positive expression of immunofluorescence and immunoblotting protein expression of NR2B， PSD95 increased in the rat hippocampal CA3 region of Tuina group （P＜0.05）. Compared with Tuina group， the neuronal morphology of the hippocampal CA3 region in MK-801 plus Tuina group was severely damaged， and the number of Nystrom's-positive cells， the number of synapses， the thickness of post-synaptic densities， the length of active bands， and the curvature of synaptic interfaces reduced， the synaptic gaps became wider， and the immunofluorescent positive expression of NR2B， PSD95， and the expression of immunostained proteins decreased （P＜0.05）. ConclusionTuina at "Weizhong" （BL 40） showed significant analgesic effect， and one of the possible mechanisms concluded as significantly increasing the levels of NR2B and PSD95 protein expression in hippocampal CA3 region and thus modulating the synaptic plasticity of the hippocampus.

Objective Our previous studies established that microRNA (miR)-451 from human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (hUC-MSC-Exos) alleviates acute lung injury (ALI). This study aims to elucidate the mechanisms by which miR-451 in hUC-MSC-Exos reduces ALI by modulating macrophage autophagy. Methods Exosomes were isolated from hUC-MSCs. Severe burn-induced ALI rat models were treated with hUC-MSC-Exos carrying the miR-451 inhibitor. Hematoxylin-eosin staining evaluated inflammatory injury. Enzyme-linked immunosorbnent assay measured lipopolysaccharide (LPS),tumor necrosis factor-α,and interleukin-1β levels. qRT-PCR detected miR-451 and tuberous sclerosis complex 1 (TSC1) expressions. The regulatory role of miR-451 on TSC1 was determined using a dual-luciferase reporter system. Western blotting determined TSC1 and proteins related to the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway and autophagy. Immunofluorescence analysis was conducted to examine exosomes phagocytosis in alveolar macrophages and autophagy level. Results hUC-MSC-Exos with miR-451 inhibitor reduced burn-induced ALI and promoted macrophage autophagy. MiR-451 could be transferred from hUC-MSCs to alveolar macrophages via exosomes and directly targeted TSC1. Inhibiting miR-451 in hUC-MSC-Exos elevated TSC1 expression and inactivated the mTOR pathway in alveolar macrophages. Silencing TSC1 activated mTOR signaling and inhibited autophagy,while TSC1 knockdown reversed the autophagy from the miR-451 inhibitor-induced. Conclusion miR-451 from hUC-MSC exosomes improves ALI by suppressing alveolar macrophage autophagy through modulation of the TSC1/mTOR pathway,providing a potential therapeutic strategy for ALI.
