Objective Objective To analyze the potential spatial factors affecting the genetic differentiation of Oncomelania hupensis robertsoni in Yunnan Province. Methods A total of 13 administrative villages were selected from schistosomiasis-endemic areas of Yunnan Province as O. hupensis snail sampling sites. At least 200 snails were collected in each site, and the spatial variable data of each site were recorded, including longitude, latitude and altitude. Thirty active and Schistosoma japonicum uninfected O. hupensis snails were selected from each sampling site by means of the crawling method and the cercarial shedding method. Genomic DNA was extracted from O. hupensis snails. Following PCR amplification, purification of PCR amplification products and sequencing, the gene sequences of O. hupensis snail samples were spliced and edited using the DNAstar software and the NCBI database to yield the complete mitochondrial sequences of O. hupensis snails at each sampling site, and the mitochondrial genetic distance matrix of O. hupensis robertsoni was calculated at each sampling site. The geographical coordinates of each sampling site were marked using the software ArcGIS 10.2, and the straight-line geographical distance between each sampling site was calculated. The altitude difference, longitude difference and latitude difference between each sampling site were calculated using the Excel software, and the correlation between the mitochondrial genetic distance matrix of O. hupensis robertsoni and each spatial variable matrix was examined by using the Mantel test at 13 sampling sites in Yunnan Province. Results Among the 13 O. hupensis snail sampling sites in Yunnan Province, the largest mitochondrial genetic distance of O. hupensis robertsoni snail populations was seen between Anding Village, Nanjian Yi Autonomous County and Caizhuang Village, Midu County (26.244 2), and the largest geographical distance was seen between Dongyuan Village, Gucheng District and Cangling Village, Chuxiong County (272.64 km). The highest altitude difference was seen between Anding Village, Nanjian Yi Autonomous County and Dongyuan Village, Gucheng District (1 086.10 m), and the largest longitude difference was found between Qiandian Village, Eryuan County and Cangling Village, Chuxiong County (1.86°), while the largest latitude difference was measured between Leqiu Village, Nanjian Yi Autonomous County and Dongyuan Village, Gucheng District (1.81°). In addition, the mitochondrial genetic distance of O. hupensis robertsoni snail populations was positively correlated with altitude at 13 snail sampling sites in Yunnan Province (r = 0.542 8, P < 0.001), and showed no significant correlations with geographical distance (r = 0.093 4, P > 0.05), longitude (r = −0.199 5, P > 0.05) or latitude (r = 0.205 7, P > 0.05). Conclusion Altitude may be a potential spatial factor affecting the genetic differentiation of O. hupensis robertsoni in Yunnan Province.

3.Impact of the interaction between single-parent background and relative deprivation on eye movement during emotional attention among college students
Chinese Journal of School Health 2026;47(7):954-957
Objective:
To explore the effect of relative deprivation on emotional attention among college students from single parent families, so as to provide evidence for psychological crisis prevention and campus mental health services.
Methods:
From January to June 2023, 478 college students from North China University of Science and Technology were selected by convenience sampling method. Participants with high and low levels of relative deprivation were screened by using the extreme grouping method, and 48 valid participants were finally included. A 2 (single parent/non single parent) ×2 (high/low relative deprivation) design was adopted. One way ANOVA was conducted on four eye tracking indicators, followed by stratified analyses according to family structure.
Results:
Overall, participants showed attentional bias toward low valence faces, as indicated by first fixation direction ( t = 2.17) and first fixation duration proportion ( t =-4.28) (both P <0.05). Three factor repeated-measures ANOVA showed a significant interaction between family structure and picture type ( F =23.08, P <0.05). Stratified analysis showed that, in the single parent subgroup, the interaction between relative deprivation and picture type was significant ( F =13.28, P <0.01), whereas this interaction was not significant in the non single parent subgroup ( F =2.18, P >0.05). Further interaction analysis showed that relative deprivation had a partial interaction effect between singleparent background and emotional attentional bias ( β =0.14, Bootstrap 95% CI =0.11-0.47, P <0.05).
Conclusions
College students from single parent families may show enhanced attentional bias toward negative emotional cues through increased relative deprivation. Students with both single parent background and high relative deprivation are a high risk group.

Objective To define the conceptual connotation of network dynamic collaboration capacity in medical surge response and construct its theoretical model.Methods A mixed concept analysis method was employed,integrating multidisciplinary literature and collecting empirical evidence through semi-structured expert interviews to extract the concept of network dynamic collaboration capacity in medical surge response.By integrating complex systems,network science,synergetics,and dynamic capability theory,and combining the interview results,the study used the analogy of flood control in hydraulic engineering to develop a"network-dynamic-collaboration"triangular capacity theoretical model.Results It reveals one antecedents(sudden external shocks have led to an abnormal and continuous surge in medical demand),six core attributes(information interconnection accessibility,dynamic resource adaptability,risk perception responsiveness,multi-party collaborative interactivity,service process adaptability elasticity,and learning iterative evolution),and four consequences(mitigation of crowding risk,protection of service continuity,minimization of crisis spillover,and enhancement of system resilience)for the network dynamic collaboration capacity in medical surge response.The theoretical model elucidates the coupling mechanisms among network structural resilience,dynamic regulation processes,and collaborative co-evolution in resisting medical surge.Conclusion The new concept and theoretical model proposed in this study deepen the understanding of medical surge response system mechanisms and offer a theoretical framework and practical guidance for strengthening the full-chain resilience of health emergency systems.

Objective:To correlate serum bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) and cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) levels with joint function and systemic inflammatory response in patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA) complicated by cartilage injury.Methods:This study is a retrospective analysis. It selected 258 patients with knee osteoarthritis who were treated at Yantai Yuhuangding Hospital from January 2022 to December 2023. All patients underwent arthroscopic examination. Based on the presence of cartilage injury, 118 patients with cartilage injury were included in the Group A, while 140 patients without cartilage injury were included in the Group B. Joint function (WOMAC Osteoarthritis Index, Lysholm Knee Function Score), serum levels of BMP-2 and COMP, and systemic inflammatory responses [levels of interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α)] were compared between the two groups. Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves were drawn to analyze the diagnostic efficacy of serum BMP-2 and COMP levels for KOA complicated by cartilage injury. Pearson correlation analysis was used to assess the correlation between the aforementioned serum markers and the patients' WOMAC Osteoarthritis Index, Lysholm Knee Function Score, as well as serum levels of IL-1, IL-6, and TNF-α.Results:Group A had significantly lower serum BMP-2 levels and Lysholm Knee Function Scores compared with Group B [(9.18 ± 1.65) ng/L vs. (11.43 ± 2.51) ng/L, t = 8.34, P < 0.001; (80.06 ± 8.34) vs. (86.94 ± 7.21), t = 7.11, P < 0.001]. Group A exhibited higher serum levels of COMP, IL-1, IL-6, and TNF-α, as well as a higher WOMAC Osteoarthritis Index, with all differences being statistically significant [(6.88 ± 2.34) μg/L vs. (5.04 ± 1.01) μg/L, t = -8.34, P < 0.001; (43.18 ± 7.81) ng/L vs. (35.96 ± 5.02) ng/L, t = -8.96, P < 0.001; (34.03 ± 6.68) ng/L vs. (28.75 ± 5.61) ng/L, t = -6.90, P < 0.001; (13.17 ± 1.89) ng/L vs. (11.24 ± 1.01) ng/L, t = -10.44, P < 0.001; (137.18 ± 18.95) vs. (121.14 ± 13.58), t = -7.90, P < 0.001]. ROC curve analysis indicated that the area under the curve values for serum BMP-2 and COMP levels in diagnosing KOA complicated by cartilage injury were 0.773 and 0.811, respectively. Pearson correlation analysis revealed a negative correlation between serum BMP-2 levels and the WOMAC Osteoarthritis Index, as well as serum levels of IL-1, IL-6, and TNF-α ( r = -0.52, -0.42, -0.40, -0.57, all P < 0.05). Additionally, serum BMP-2 levels showed a positive correlation with the Lysholm Knee Function Score ( r = 0.51, P < 0.05). Serum COMP levels and the WOMAC Osteoarthritis Index were positively correlated with serum IL-1, IL-6, and TNF-α levels ( r = 0.48, 0.45, 0.37, 0.54, all P < 0.05) and were negatively correlated with the Lysholm Knee Function Score ( r = -0.51, P < 0.05). Conclusions:Serum BMP-2 and COMP levels have certain diagnostic value in patients with KOA complicated by cartilage injury. Moreover, these indicators are correlated with joint function and systemic inflammatory responses. Therefore, they hold promise as potential indicators for assessing disease progression in patients with KOA.
