Objective:
To explore the dynamic association and gender difference among body dissatisfaction, weight bias internalization and eating disorders in junior high school students, so as to provide the reference for the rational implementation of relevant intervention activitites.
Methods:
From June to December 2023, a cluster sampling method was used to select 698 students from a middle school in Fuzhou for three followup surveys for a period of 6 months (T1:June 2023, T2:September 2023, T3:December 2023). The Eating Disorders Inventory-Body Dissatisfaction (EDI-BD), the Chinese Version of the Weight Bias Internalization Scale for Mainland Chinese Children and Adolescents (C-WBIS), and the Chinese Version of the Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire (C-EDE-QS) were used for investigation. Analysis of variance, t test, Pearson correlation analysis and crosslagged analysis were used for statistical analysis.
Results:
T1 there were statistically significant differences in body dissatisfaction scores among junior high school students of different grades and with or without leftbehind experience (t=-3.25, 2.12, P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in weight bias internalization (t=-3.03, -2.43, 2.43) and eating disorders (t=-4.64, -2.04, 2.63) among junior high school students of different genders, grades and with or without leftbehind experience (P<0.05). Crosslagged analysis showed that body dissatisfaction was a predictor of weight bias internalization (βT1-T2=0.22, βT2-T3=0.12) and eating disorders (βT1-T2=0.09, βT2-T3=0.17, P<0.01). Eating disorders could predict body dissatisfaction (βT1-T2=0.15, βT2-T3=0.13) and weight bias internalization (βT1-T2=0.14, βT2-T3=0.23, P<0.01). The mutual predictive effect of body dissatisfaction, weight bias internalization and eating disorders varied with gender. T2 weight bias internalization in girls had a predictive effect on T3 body dissatisfaction (β=0.11). T1 and T2 eating disorders in girls had a predictive effect on T2 and T3 weight bias internalization (βT1-T2=0.26, βT2-T3=0.21) (P<0.01).
Conclusions
Body dissatisfaction, weight bias internalization, and eating disorders of the junior high school students are interconnected. And there is a certain twoway correlation and gender difference between body dissatisfaction, weight bias internalization and eating disorders in junior high school students.

With the ongoing evolution of minimally invasive thoracic surgery techniques, innovative anatomical approaches facilitating rapid perioperative recovery while achieving optimal aesthetic results and pain-free outcomes have become a pivotal direction in pulmonary resection. While periareolar incisions have demonstrated well-established advantages in cosmetic preservation and pain management in breast and thyroid procedures, the standardization of this approach for video-assisted thoracoscopic pulmonary resection requires further refinement. This consensus synthesizes the collective expertise of China's leading thoracic surgery centers in periareolar approach pulmonary resections. It aims to establish comprehensive clinical consensus that encompasses prerequisite surgical criteria, standardized perioperative management protocols, technically optimized operative procedures, and evidence-based complication prevention and management strategies, ultimately providing guidance for the standardized application of this innovative surgical technique.

The plant AT-rich sequence and zinc-binding protein (PLATZ) family is composed of plant-specific zinc finger-like transcription factors, which play important roles in plant growth, development, and stress tolerance. In this study, to gain a better understanding of the PLATZ gene in C. sinensis and elucidate its response under drought and high temperature conditions, the PLATZ gene family of the C. sinensis cultivar 'Tieguanyin' was systematically identified, and a total of 12 CsPLATZ family members were identified. Expasy online and other bioinformatics tools were used to analyze the members of the PLATZ gene family in terms of protein physicochemical properties, phylogenetic relationships, cis-acting elements, gene structures, and intra- and inter-species collinearity. The results of phylogenetic analysis classified the CsPLATZ family members into 2 subfamilies. The conserved domains and gene structures of PLATZ family members within the same subfamily had a high degree of consistency, whereas a certain degree of diversity was observed among the subfamilies. Twelve PLATZ genes were unevenly distributed across 7 chromosomes of C. sinensis and the promoter regions of these genes had multiple cis-acting elements related to hormone and stress responses. The collinearity analysis showed that there were 4 pairs of duplication events in the CsPLATZ gene family, all of which were segmental duplications. Based on this gene family, C. sinensis had a closer evolutionary relationship with A. thaliana than with O. sativa. The transcriptome analysis showed that the expression levels of CsPLATZ family members varied in different tissue samples of C. sinensis. 6 genes (CsPLATZ-1, CsPLATZ-2, CsPLATZ-3, CsPLATZ-4, CsPLATZ-6, and CsPLATZ-8) with high expression in shoots, young leaves, and roots were selected for high temperature and drought stress treatments, and their expression was quantified by qRT-PCR. The results indicated that the six genes might play important roles in the response to drought stress. In addition, CsPLATZ-2 and CsPLATZ-8 might have important functions in the response to high temperature stress. The results of this study will contribute to a better understanding of the biological functions of PLATZ genes and their possible roles in the growth, development, and stress responses of C. sinensis.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of dapagliflozin on liver lipid metabolism and gut microecology in mice with metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), and to clarify its potential mechanism. MethodsA total of 50 male C57 mice were randomly divided into Control group, type 2 diabetes+MAFLD group (MAFLD group), dapagliflozin group (DAPA group), meldonium group (THP group), and dapagliflozin+meldonium group (DAPA+THP group), with 10 mice in each group. High-fat diet combined with streptozotocin was used to establish a mouse model of MAFLD. Treatment outcomes were assessed based on histopathology and biochemical parameters such as blood glucose and blood lipid levels, and the transcriptomic and metagenomic analyses were used to identify differentially expressed genes and the changes in gut microbiota. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between multiple groups, and the least significant difference t-test was used for comparison between two groups; the Kruskal-Wallis H test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between multiple groups, and the Nemenyi test was used for comparison between two groups. ResultsHistopathological examination showed that the mice in the MAFLD group had excessive lipid deposition and hepatocyte steatosis; compared with the MAFLD group, the DAPA group had a significant improvement in hepatocyte steatosis, while the THP group and the DAPA+THP group had a less significant improvement compared with the DAPA group. Compared with the Control group, the MAFLD group had a significant increase in fasting blood glucose (P<0.05), significant increases in the serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), malondialdehyde, total cholesterol, triglyceride, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (P<0.05), and a significant reduction in high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (P<0.05). Compared with the MAFLD group, the DAPA group, the THP group, and the DAPA+THP group had significant reductions in the serum levels of ALT and AST (P<0.05). The results of 16S rRNA sequencing showed that compared with the Control group, the MAFLD group had significant changes in gut microbiota, with an increase in Firmicutes and a reduction in Bacteroidetes, as well as reductions in S24-7 and Erysipelotrichaceae and an increase in Lactobacillaceae. The levels of the above flora were upregulated to normal levels in the DAPA group, the THP group, and the DAPA+THP group. The liver transcriptomic analysis showed that the enriched metabolic pathways included steroid hormone biosynthesis, bile secretion, inflammatory mediator regulation of TRP, fatty acid elongation, and lipid biodegradation processes, and the related genes mainly involved the key targets of lipid metabolism such as Acot2, Angptl4, Scd2, and Npc1l1. ConclusionDapagliflozin can alleviate MAFLD through the pathways such as steroid hormone biosynthesis, bile secretion, inflammatory mediator regulation of TRP, and fatty acid elongation, as well as by regulating gut microbiota homeostasis.

Talents are the main force for the development of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM), and the construction of TCM talents and the reformation of talent evaluation system are essential to promote the inheritance and innovation of TCM. At present, we are still exploring and developing in the fields of the formulation, implementation and evaluation indicators of TCM talent evaluation system. However, there are shortcomings and difficulties. For instance, insufficient stratification in the evaluation, excessive emphasis on the quantity of achievements, neglecting the quality of the achievements and the actual contribution, imperfect assessment indicators, and the weak characteristics of TCM. Therefore, national ministries and commissions have jointly issued a document requesting to break the four only and set a new standard, in order to promote the construction of a scientific and technological talent evaluation system oriented by innovation value, ability and contribution. For the evaluation of TCM clinical talents, China Association for Science and Technology commissioned China Association of Chinese Medicine to build the China Clinical Cases Library of TCM(CCCL-TCM), which aims at collecting the most authoritative and representative TCM clinical cases and exploring the advantages of applying clinical cases as masterpiece of achievement in TCM clinical talents evaluation. CCCL-TCM can promote the construction of a talent evaluation system that is more in line with the development characteristics of TCM industry, and to carry out relevant pilot in TCM colleges and institutions across the country in order to promote the reformation of TCM talent evaluation system.
