Abstract The prevention and control of myopia in Chinese children and adolescents has become a major public health issue. While maintaining increased outdoor activity as a cornerstone intervention, there is an urgent need to explore new complementary approaches that can be effectively implemented in both indoor and outdoor settings. In recent years, environmental spatial frequency has gained increasing attention as one of the key environmental factors influencing the development and progression of myopia. Both animal studies and human research have confirmed that indoor environments lacking mid to high spatial frequency components, often characterized as "visually impoverished", can promote axial elongation and myopia through mechanisms such as disruption of retinal neural signaling, impaired accommodative function, and altered expression of related molecules. Based on the scientific consensus, it is recommended that "enriching of environmental spatial frequency" should be integrated into the myopia prevention and control framework. Following the principles of schoolled organization, family cooperation, community involvement, and student participation, specific measures are put forward in three areas：optimizing school visual settings, improving home spatial environments, and promoting healthy visual behavior. The aim is to create "visually friendly" indoor environments as an important supplement to outdoor activity, thereby providing a novel perspective and strategy for comprehensively advancing myopia prevention and control among children and adolescents.

Guided by the concept of holism in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， it is believed that spinal vertebral disorders can affect the knee joint through meridians， physical forms， the relationship among tendons， bones， qi， and blood， as well as liver-kidney zang-fu （脏腑） functions， thereby triggering knee pain. In clinical practice， for conditions such as knee joint pain with poor local therapeutic effects or unexplained knee joint pain， it is recommended to start with an examination of the spine for lesions. By adopting the spine-adjusting and knee-benefiting method， through techniques of loosening and tightening acupoints， bone setting and curve adjustment， strengthening tendons and bones， and consolidating and protecting the liver and kidneys， the spine can be restored to its normal physiological state， achieving the goal of distal tendon-bone balance， harmonization of qi and blood， and the spontaneous disappearance of knee joint pain.

Occupational stress has been considered as one of the potential independent risk factors for the occurrence and development of hypertension in recent years. This paper reviews the concept connotation and common assessment methods of occupational stress, expounds the potential mechanisms by which occupational stress affects blood pressure levels, summarizes and analyzes the research progress of occupational stress-related hypertension in recent years, identifies existing issues in current research, and discusses future research directions, aiming to provide a reference for further understanding the relationship between occupational stress and hypertension and formulating effective intervention measures.

Based on the view that wind pathogen runs through the entire course of the occurrence and development of nephrotic syndrome， it is proposed that the core pathogenesis of refractory nephrotic syndrome （RNS） in children involves imbalance of the lung， spleen， and kidney， invasion of wind pathogen， and stagnation of turbidity and stasis， and that directing the turbid downward with wind medicinals is the key therapeutic strategy. In clinical practice， according to the distinct pathogenic characteristics of three patterns， including defensive qi insecurity of the lung， yang deficiency with loss of regulation， and binding of turbidity and stasis， three corresponding methods are applied， which are diffusing the lung to consolidate defensive qi， elevating yang to supplement the spleen and kidney， and activating blood to unblock turbidity and stasis. For the pattern of defensive qi insecurity of the lung， wind medicinals are used to penetrate and disperse external pathogens， such as fangfeng （Radix Saposhnikoviae） and mahuang （Herba Ephedrae） for diffusing the lung， dispersing wind， and consolidating defensive qi. For yang deficiency with loss of regulation pattern， wind medicinals are employed to elevate yang and assist transformation， such as shengma （Rhizoma Cimicifugae） and gegen （Radix Puerariae Lobatae） for raising clear yang， warming and activating the spleen and kidney. For binding of turbidity and stasis pattern， wind medicinals with scurrying and collateral‑unblocking properties are used， such as jixueteng （Caulis Spatholobi）， luoshiteng （Caulis Trachelospermi）， and chuanshanlong （Rhizoma Dioscoreae Nipponicae） for dispelling wind， activating blood， resolving stasis， and directing turbidity downward. In all these methods， the core principle is to use wind medicinals to regulate qi movement， open and unblock the sweat pores， and separately eliminate turbid pathogens， thereby providing a theoretical and practical basis for the traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis and treatment of RNS in children.

This study aimed to elucidate the mechanism of action of metformin (MET) in inhibiting the malignant progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by regulating the degradation of aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C3 (AKR1C3). The correlation between the sensitivity of different hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines to MET and their basal expression levels of AKR1C3 was firstly evaluated. MET was found to significantly reduce the level and accelerate the degradation rate of AKR1C3 protein by Western blot. The interaction between MET and AKR1C3 protein was confirmed by cellular thermal shift assay (CETSA). Proteasome inhibitor MG132 and the lysosomal inhibitor chloroquine (CQ) were used to screen the degradation pathway, and confirm, in combination with the HBSS starvation-induced autophagy model, that MET mediated the degradation of AKR1C3 through the autophagy lysosome pathway. Ubiquitylation assay showed that MET specifically enhanced the K63-linked polyubiquitylation modification of AKR1C3. Sequestosome 1 (SQSTM1/p62) knockdown, immunoprecipitation, and immunofluorescence co-localization analyses confirmed that the autophagy receptor p62 plays a key role in mediating MET-induced degradation of AKR1C3. The adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) inhibitor compound C was used to demonstrate that the regulatory effect of MET on AKR1C3 is independent of the classical AMPK signaling pathway. The experimental results showed that metformin promoted the ubiquitination modification of AKR1C3 by targeting AKR1C3, enhanced the binding of AKR1C3 to autophagy receptor p62, then degraded the AKR1C3 protein through selective autophagy-like pathway, and ultimately inhibited the malignant phenotypes of hepatocellular carcinoma cells, which is a regulatory mechanism free of the classical AMPK activation pathway of metformin.

Time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometer(TOF-SIMS)is a highly sensitive surface analysis instrument with high spatial resolution.Traditional TOF-SIMS instruments for sample targets use high field extraction methods.Although the ion collection efficiency is high,it is prone to issues such as low-energy ion beam defocusing,sample morphology sensitivity,and organic molecule ion dissociation.This study aimed to develope an efficient low-field ion extraction system suitable for TOF-SIMS with a continuous beam source.The SIMION simulation software was used to construct a model of the secondary ion optical extraction system.The key factors affecting the extraction efficiency were studied,and the structural parameters of the extraction cone were optimized.Using an indium target as the sample,an experimental test of the performance of the ion extraction system was carried out on the TOF-SIMS instrument.The influences of the voltages of the ion extraction cone and the single lens on the ion extraction efficiency were consistent with the simulation results.By adopting the technology of deflection and coaxial dynamic compensation,the imaging field of view of the ion extraction system was increased to 500 μm×500 μm.The energy window of the ion extraction system reached 10 eV,and the large imaging depth of field of 400 μm was achieved.In the test of a 5 mg/L cholesterol thin film sample,the signal-to-noise ratio of the characteristic peak[M-OH]+reached 4453.The results showed that this low-field secondary ion extraction system effectively improved the performance of the continuous beam TOF-SIMS instrument.

The major components of Olaflur raw material were characterized using ultra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight-mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-TOF/MS).The results revealed that cetyl amine fluoride(C16-AmF),octadecene amine fluoride(C18:1-AmF),and octadecyl amine fluoride(Olaflur)were the main components.The contents of C16-AmF,C18:1-AmF,and Olaflur in oral care products were determined via ultra performance liquid chromatography-charged aerosol detector coupled with solid-phase extraction(SPE-UPLC-CAD).The oral care sample was dispersed evenly with a 50%ethanol aqueous solution,and then vortexed with ethanol.The supernatant was collected by centrifugation,concentrated to near dryness,and redissolved with ultrapure water.The re-dissolved sample was loaded onto a Poly-Sery HLB Pro SPE column for purification and elution.The acetonitrile eluate was collected and concentrated to 1.0 mL.Finally,a prepared test solution was separated on a Thermo Acclaim Surfactant Plus chromatographic column(2.1 mm×150 mm,3 μm).Acetonitrile and 100 mmol/L acetic acid-ammonium acetate aqueous solution(pH=4.8)were used as the mobile phases for gradient elution.The flow rate was 0.3 mL/min and cloumn temperature was maintained at 40℃.The sample was detected using a charged aerosol detector,and quantified using an external standard method.The experimental results indicated that the three organic fluorinated amines showed good linear relationship in their respective concentration ranges.The correlation coefficients(r)were greater than 0.99.The limit of detection(LOD)and the limit of quantification(LOQ)of C16-AmF were 2.0 and 8.0 μg/mL,respectively.The LOD and LOQ of C18:1-AmF were 2.0 and 8.0 μg/mL,respectively.The LOD and LOQ of Olaflur were 3.0 μg/mL and 10.0 μg/mL,respectively.The spiked recoveries of the three organic fluorinated amines were 84.3%-104.2%,with relative standard deviations(RSDs)of 4.93%-5.82%.The 28 batches of commercial oral care samples were detected by this method and the results indicated that three organic fluorinated amines were detected in 18 samples and the total content were 22.2-11477.8 μg/g.This method had high sensitivity and good reproducibility.It was suitable for verifying the authenticity of the claims of oral care products promoted with Olaflur as the main efficacy ingredient and selling point,and provided a valuable reference for establishing and improving the standard analytical method for Olaflur.

Objective:To analyze the etiological composition and clinical characteristics of infant hypertension，and provide reference for its diagnosis and treatment.Methods:This is a retrospective case-control study.Retrospective investigation and analysis were conducted on the clinical data of infants discharged from Beijing Children's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University with a diagnosis of "hypertension" from June 1，2016 to September 30，2021，including clinical manifestations，auxiliary examinations，treatment plans，and prognosis.Results:A total of 74 eligible children were collected，including 42 male infants（56.8%）and 32 female infants（43.2%）.A total of 67 cases（90.5%）had clear secondary factors，including 35 cases of kidney disease（47.3%），12 cases of connective tissue disease（16.2%），and 9 cases of hematological tumor disease（12.2%）.At the beginning of the disease，cardiac ultrasound showed that 54 cases（73.0%）had ventricular wall thickening，including mild thickening in 31 cases（57.4%），moderate thickening in 11 cases（20.3%），and severe thickening in 12 cases（22.2%）.After grouping by etiology，the incidence of proteinuria and severe hypertension in the renal hypertension group，as well as those receiving multiple antihypertensive drugs，was significantly higher than that in the non-renal hypertension group（ χ 2=28.493， P<0.001； χ 2=17.283， P<0.001； χ 2=17.358， P<0.001）；Renal disease was risk factor for severe hypertension in infants according to univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis respectively（ OR=11.176，95% CI：2.882~43.339， P<0.001； OR=11.669，95% CI：2.921~46.624， P<0.001）.Thirty-one children had follow-up records for 6 months or more，and 13（41.9%）still required antihypertensive treatment，of whom 26（83.9%）were no longer recorded as having elevated blood pressure. Conclusion:Infant hypertension is mainly secondary，with a high proportion of renal factors and predisposition to severe hypertension，which requires multiple antihypertensive drugs for control.Active antihypertensive treatment and removal of secondary factors during the acute phase are helpful for controlling hypertension in infants，but further research is needed on treatment options and long-term prognosis.

Objective To investigate the expression of methyltransferase like protein 5(METTL5)and Vi-ral like m6A methyltransferase associated(VIRMA)in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)and their relationship with clinical prognosis.Methods A total of 89 HCC patients who visited the hospital from March 2018 to March 2021 were enrolled in the study.Immunohistochemistry and fluorescence quantitative PCR were con-ducted to analyze the expression of METTL5,VIRMA protein and mRNA in tissues.Kaplan-Meier curve and COX regression were used to analyze the impact of METTL5 and VIRMA proteins on the prognosis of HCC.Results The METTL5 mRNA(3.23±0.55 vs.0.61±0.20)and VIRMA mRNA(2.97±0.42 vs.0.58±0.17)in HCC cancer tissue were higher than those in adjacent tissues,and the differences were statistically significant(t=42.234,49.762,both P＜0.001).METTL5 and VIRMA proteins were located in the cyto-plasm and cell membrane,with some in the nucleus.The positive rates of METTL5[71.91％(64/89)vs.5.62％(5/89)]and VIRMA[69.66％(62/89)vs.6.74％(6/89)]in HCC cancer tissues were higher than those in adjacent tissues,and the differences were statistically significant(x2=82.385,74.627,P＜0.001,P=0.001).The expression of METTL5 and VIRMA proteins in HCC were related to China Liver Cancer Staging(CNLC)stages,maximum tumor diameter,and vascular invasion,and the positive rates of METTL5 and VIRMA proteins were higher in HCC cancer tissues with CNLC stage Ⅱ-Ⅲ,maximum tumor diameter≥ 5 cm,and vascular invasion(P＜0.05).The 3-year survival rates of METTL5 positive and negative groups were 34.88％(15/43)and 67.39％(31/46),with statistically significant differences(Log-rank x2=7.893,P=0.005).The 3-year survival rates of the VIRMA positive and negative groups were 36.36％(16/44)and 66.67％(30/45),with statistically significant differences(Log-rank x2=9.828,P=0.002).CNLC staging stages Ⅱ-Ⅲ,maximum tumor diameter ≥5 cm,vascular invasion,METTL5 positivity,and VIRMA positivi-ty were risk factors for poor prognosis in HCC patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion The upregulation of MET-TL5 and VIRMA expression in HCC are associated with CNLC stage Ⅱ-Ⅲ,maximum tumor diameter and vascular invasion,and both of them are tumor markers for evaluating the prognosis of HCC.
