Objective To compare the clinical outcomes of subxiphoid robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (SRATS) and intercostal robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (IRATS) in the treatment of anterior mediastinal tumors. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with anterior mediastinal tumors who underwent robot-assisted surgery in the Department of Thoracic Surgery, Gansu Provincial Hospital, from May 2020 to July 2022. According to the surgical approach, patients were divided into an SRATS group and an IRATS group. Perioperative data were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 87 patients were included. There were 41 patients in the SRATS group [23 males, 18 females; mean age, (44.51±11.28) years] and 46 patients in the IRATS group [21 males, 25 females; mean age, (46.67±8.76) years]. Compared with the IRATS group, the SRATS group had significantly less intraoperative blood loss [(24.41±6.67) mL vs. (37.93±9.23) mL, P<0.001], shorter postoperative drainage duration [(1.73±0.59) days vs. (2.54±0.50) days, P<0.001], lower postoperative drainage volume [(94.46±34.08) mLvs. (116.72±24.90) mL, P=0.001], lower visual analogue scale (VAS) pain scores on postoperative day 1 [(3.66±0.76) points vs. (4.15±0.84) points, P=0.005] and day 3 [(2.41±0.59) points vs. (2.89±0.82) points, P=0.003], shorter postoperative hospital stay [(4.12±0.81) days vs. (4.98±1.02) days, P<0.001], and lower hospitalization costs [(4.51±0.65) ten thousand yuan vs. (4.86±0.68) ten thousand yuan, P=0.020]. There were no statistical differences between the two groups in operative time or incidence of postoperative complications (P>0.05). Conclusion Both SRATS and IRATS are safe and effective for the treatment of anterior mediastinal tumors. However, SRATS is less invasive and more conducive to enhanced postoperative recovery.

In recent years， the incidence of depression among adolescents has increased significantly， becoming a serious global public health problem. There is a close relationship between adolescent depression and lipid metabolism abnormalities. However， the mechanisms underlying this association have not been fully elucidated. This article provides a review of the mechanisms and interventions linking adolescent depression and lipid metabolism abnormalities， aiming to offer new ideas for interventions in adolescent depression. Using computerized searches of the China National Knowledge Infrastructure （CNKI）， Wanfang Data， PubMed， and Web of Science， studies on the mechanisms and interventions related to adolescent depression and lipid metabolism were collected， with the search period extending up to October 10， 2025. Two researchers independently conducted literature screening and extracted basic information from the included studies. A total of 12 original studies were included. The results indicate that adolescent depression is associated with certain lipid metabolites. Neurobiological factors， immune inflammation， oxidative stress， and gut microbiota imbalance play important roles in this association. In addition， lipid metabolites such as omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids （ω-3 PUFAs） have a significant ameliorating effect on adolescent depression. ［Funded by Shenzhen Fund for Guangdong Provincial High-level Clinical Key Specialties （number， SZGSP013）； Shenzhen Science and Technology Program （number， 20210617155253001）］

ObjectiveTo explore the impact of comprehensive vocational rehabilitation on quality of life and return-to-work outcomes for individuals with mild work-related disability. MethodsA longitudinal observational study was conducted. A total of 343 work-injured employees receiving comprehensive vocational rehabilitation intervention in Guangdong Work Injury Rehabilitation Hospital from June, 2023 to December, 2024 were selected. The 36-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) was adopted to assess their health-related quality of life at admission and discharge. All subjects were followed up within one year after discharge to collect their return-to-work status. The differences in each dimension score of SF-36 among patients with different return-to-work outcomes (return to original post, transfer to new post and non-return to work) were compared, and the independent influencing factors of return-to-work outcomes were identified. ResultsComprehensive vocational rehabilitation intervention significantly improved the scores of physical functioning (PF), role-physical (RP) and role-emotional (RE) among work-injured employees (P < 0.05). At discharge, compared with patients who failed to return to work, patients returning to original post obtained significantly higher scores in PF, RP, bodily pain (BP), general health (GH), vitality (VT), social functioning (SF) and mental health (MH), patients transferred to new post achieved significantly higher scores in PF, BP, GH and SF (P < 0.05). Taking non-return-to-work status as the reference category, the multinomial logistic regression model showed the adverse factors for return to original post included low educational attainment (college diploma or below), on-site placement service, increased lost workdays and low employment intention (pre-contemplation and contemplation stages); the protective factor was positive evaluation of health transition (HT); for patients transferred to new posts, adverse factors were low employment intention (pre-contemplation stage) and increased lost workdays, while protective factors covered on-site placement service and positive HT evaluation. ConclusionComprehensive vocational rehabilitation can improve the quality of life for injured workers. Better quality of life is positively associated with return-to-work outcomes. HT, education level, job placement mode, lost workdays and employment willingness are independent factors impacting return-to-work outcomes.

Objective To explore the role and underlying mechanism of the transcriptional coactivator with PDZ-binding motif(TAZ)and a histone variant of acute histone H2A(H2A.Z)in the repair of hypoxia-induced lung injury.Methods A mouse model of hypoxic lung injury was established by being placed in a hypoxia chamber(simulating an altitude of 5 800 m)for 4 d.HE staining was used to observe the severity of lung injury.A hypoxia model of murine alveolar epithelial cells(murine lung epithelial-12,MLE12)was constructed by treating the cells in a hypoxia workstation(1%O2 concentration)for 24 h.Western blotting was employed to detect TAZ expression.The proliferation of alveolar epithelial cells(AECs)was evaluated by CCK-8 assay.Co-immunoprecipitation(Co-IP)assay was utilized to verify the interaction between TAZ and H2A.Z.CUT&Tag sequencing was performed to determine the effect of TAZ on the chromatin deposition of H2A.Z.Results Hypoxia significantly induced alveolar atrophy and inflammatory infiltration in mouse lung tissues(P＜0.01).Hypoxia significantly up-regulated the protein level of TAZ in MLE12 cells(P＜0.05).CCK-8 assay showed that knockdown of TAZ significantly reduced the proliferative capacity of AECs(P＜0.01).Co-IP assay confirmed the physical interaction between TAZ and H2A.Z.CUT&Tag sequencing revealed that hypoxia promoted the deposition of H2A.Z on chromatin(31 817 peaks under normoxia,44 078 peaks under hypoxia),which was partially reversed by TAZ knockdown(37 840 peaks).Conclusion Hypoxia significantly up-regulates the expression of TAZ,which combines with H2A.Z and promotes the deposition of H2A.Z on chromatin,thus enhancing the proliferation of AECs in response to hypoxic injury.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Aim To investigate the effects of Congrong San(CRS)on learning and memory ability,hippocam-pal neuronal injury,and ferroptosis in rats with Alzhei-mer's disease(AD)and to explore the related mecha-nisms.Methods AD rat models were established and divided into Sham,Model,CRS low-dose,CRS medium-dose,CRS high-dose,and memantine groups.After treatment,Morris water maze,HE and Nissl staining,transmission electron microscopy,immunofluorescence staining,Western blot,and kit assays were performed to assess learning and memory ability,hippocampal neuro-nal injury,ferroptosis-related indicatorsand glucose reg-ulated protein 78 ku(GRP78)-(proteinkinaseR-li-keERkinase)PERK-(activating transcription factor 4)ATF4 pathway protein expression.Results Com-pared with the model group,rats in the CRS medium-and high-dose groups and the memantine group showed significant improvement in learning and memory abili-ty,reduced hippocampal neuronal injury,increased number of Nissl bodies,and ameliorated endoplasmic reticulum swelling and mitochondrial damage.In addi-tion,the expressions of GRP78,p-PERK/PERK,and ATF4 were downregulated,while GPX4 expression was upregulated in the CRS medium-and high-dose groups and the memantine group.Moreover,MDA content de-creased,and SOD and GSH-PX levels increased in these groups.Conclusions CRS can improve the learning and memory ability in AD rats,reduce hipp-ocampal neuronal injury and ferroptosis,and its mecha-nism may be related to the inhibition of the GRP78-PERK-ATF4 pathway,enhancement of GPX4 expres-sion,and reduction of oxidative stress levels,providing a new approach for the clinical treatment of AD.
