Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of school-family-community comprehensive intervention aimed at reducing sugar sweetened beverage(SSB) consumption among primary and secondary school students, so as to provide scientific basis for relevant departments to formulate campus sugar reduction measures for primary and secondary school students. Methods: In October 2023, a multi stage random cluster sampling method was used to select four primary schools (grade 4) and four junior high schools (grade 7) in Nanjing City, and they were randomly divided into the intervention group ( n =1 601) and the control group ( n = 1 433 ) (primary and secondary schools). The intervention group received a one year comprehensive intervention activity with the theme of “drinking less SSBs and enjoying a healthy life” for one consecutive year. The measures included the school conducting health education courses (once a month, 15 minutes each time), environmental support (posting promotional posters, changing them once a month), class bulletin board and interest projects (once a semester); interventions for families included conducting parent lectures (once per semester 30 min each time), new media (once a month) and hand in hand activities (once per semester); community carried out square promotion and create a supportive environment (post promotional posters and replace them once a month). The control group did not receive any intervention measures except regular health education classes. Self administered questionnaires were used to collect knowledge, attitudes, and intake of SSB at the baseline and after the intervention among primary and secondary school students. Results: After the intervention, the proportion of students in the intervention group with an SSB related knowledge awareness rate of 60% or above was 91.4%, which was higher than that of the control group (81.9%) ( χ 2=60.35, P < 0.01 ). The reporting rate of the behavior of choosing to drink beverages when thirsty in the intervention group was 25.4%, which was lower than that of the control group (33.3%); the reporting rates of informing parents about the hazards of sugar sweetened beverages and paying attention to nutrition labels were 62.0% and 78.0% respectively, both of which were higher than those of the control group (52.3%, 65.9%); the reporting rate of having sugar sweetened beverages at home frequently was 43.7% in the intervention group, which was lower than that of the control group (62.3%); the reporting rate of parents restricting the consumption of sugar sweetened beverages was 84.1%, which was higher than that of the control group (78.4%) ( χ 2= 22.66, 29.05, 54.40, 104.84, 16.24, all P <0.05). The reporting rate of students in the intervention group who consumed sugar sweetened beverages more than 4 times per week was 21.5%, which was lower than that of the control group (28.6%), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ 2=20.36, P <0.01). Conclusion The comprehensive intervention of school-family-community can effectively improve primary and secondary school students knowledge and attitudes regarding SSBs and reduce their consumption of these beverages.

Objective To explore characteristics of time-domain and time-frequency of task-related electroencephalogram(EEG)in patients with post-stroke aphasia(PSA).Methods From January,2018 to December,2021,18 PSA patients(PSA group)were recruited from Dongzhimen Hospi-tal,Beijing University of Chinese Medicine,and nine healthy subjects(control group)were recruited with matched gender,age and education level.EEG data based on the Chinese word-picture matching task were col-lected,and the average amplitude of N400 and event-related synchronization(ERS)/desynchronization(ERD)were analyzed.The PSA group was assessed with Chinese Rehabilitation Research Center Aphasia Examination(CRRCAE).Results The effect of N400 was significant on left frontal,central frontal,right frontal,left central and central areas.The average amplitude of N400 was higher on the frontal area in PSA group than in the control group,and it was low-er on right temporal-parietal area.For word-picture mismatching,average amplitude of N400 at FPZ was moder-ately correlated with auditory comprehension(r=0.483,P<0.05),the average amplitude of N400 at T8 was moderately correlated with repetition(r=0.584,P<0.05)and reading aloud(r=0.556,P<0.05),and the aver-age amplitude of N400 at P6 was moderately correlated with speaking(r=0.476,P<0.05)and reading(r=0.502,P<0.05).For word-picture matching,the average amplitude of N400 at P7 was moderately negatively cor-related with calculation(r=-0.481,P<0.05).Compared with the control group,the energy decreased in θ and αfrequency bands with absence of ERS in PSA group,and it increased in β frequency band with absence of ERD.Conclusion The activities of Chinese word-picture matching task-related EEG have been inhibited on right temporal-pa-rietal area for PSA patients,and it compensatively increases on frontal area,while the energy decreases in θ and αfrequency bands with ERS deficiency,and increases in β frequency band with ERD deficiency.

Objective To analyze the respective abnormal brain regions and commonly altered brain regions of spontaneous brain ac-tivity in post-stroke aphasia(PSA)and post-stroke depression(PSD),and to explore the potential pathological mechanisms underlying single disease and comorbidity.Methods Literatures were retrieved from PubMed,Embase,Web of Science,Cochrane Library,CNKI,Wanfang data,VIP and SinoMed,from establishment to April 19th,2025.Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging(fMRI)studies were included if they focused on patients with PSA or PSD,with healthy controls(HC)serving as control group,and amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation(ALFF),fractional amplitude of low-frequency fluctu-ation(fALFF)and regional homogeneity(ReHo)were adopted as outcome indicator.Data regarding differential brain regions were extracted from the original studies,and a neuroimaging meta-analysis was conducted using SDM-PSI V6.23 beta.Results A total of 17 articles on PSA(339 patients and 351 HC)and five articles on PSD(102 patients and 149 HC)were included.The spontaneous brain activity in the left cerebellar area 9,right middle temporal gyrus and right insula was significantly higher in PSA patients than in HC(P<0.05),while activity in the right cerebellar area 6,left medial superior frontal gyrus(SFGmed),left middle frontal gyrus and right anterior cingulate/paracingulate gyrus was lower(P<0.05).For PSD,spontaneous brain activity was elevated in the right cuneus gyrus and right superior occipital gyrus compared to HC(P<0.05),while it was reduced in the left SFGmed and left inferior pa-rietal lobe(P<0.05).Additionally,spontaneous brain activity in the left medial superior frontal gyrus was lower in both diseases compared to HC(P<0.05).Conclusion The pathological mechanism of PSA may involve a pattern of right-sided compensatory hyperfunction and left-sided inhibitory damage within the language-related network,accompanied by cross-hemispheric synergistic activity of the cerebellum.The occurrence of PSD may be attributed to hyperactivity of the right occipital net-work,and functional inhibition involving the left inferior parietal lobe.The inhibition observed in the left SFG-med(MNI coordinates x=0,y=26,z=44)likely represents the language-emotion integration hub,mediating the co-occurrence of PSA and PSD.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of brain functional networks in patients with post-stroke aphasia(PSA)during a Chinese word-picture matching task.Methods A total of 18 PSA patients in Dongzhimen Hospital from January,2018 to December,2021 were enrolled as PSA group,and nine healthy controls matched for sex,age and education were included as the control group.The Chinese Rehabilitation Research Center Aphasia Examination(CRRCAE)and task-state electroencephalogram(EEG)data based on a Chinese word-picture matching paradigm were collected.Source-space reconstruction was applied to EEG signals to construct functional connectivity matrices.Graph-theoretical analysis was used to com-pute global network properties,and network-based statistics were used to identify subnetwork differences be-tween groups.Correlations between global network properties and CRRCAE subscales were further analyzed.Results The global properties of each frequency band were higher in the control group(unmatched)than in PSA group and the control group(matched)(P<0.01).Subnetworks connections enhanced in the alpha band in the frontal,temporal,parietal,occipital lobes and limbic system(23 nodes,31 edges,P<0.05),and weakened connections in the frontal,temporal,limbic system and basal ganglia(20 nodes,26 edges,P<0.01)in PSA group;in the beta band,subnetwork connections enhanced in the frontal,temporal lobes,basal ganglia and limbic system(15 nodes,23 edges,P<0.01);in the theta band,subnetwork connections weakened in the left frontal and temporal lobes(10 nodes,11 edges,P<0.05),and enhanced in the right frontal and temporal lobes(7 nodes,7 edges,P<0.05).Under the matched condition,the global properties of the alpha and beta bands in PSA group were positive-ly correlated with reading(r=0.511 to 0.650,all P<0.05),and the local efficiency and average clustering coeffi-cient of the theta band were negatively correlated with repetition(r=-0.500 to-0.505,all P<0.05);under the unmatched condition,the local efficiency and average clustering coefficient of the alpha and beta bands in PSA group were positively correlated with reading(r=0.522 to 0.642,all P<0.05),and the global efficiency and lo-cal efficiency of the alpha band were positively correlated with auditory comprehension(r=0.486 to 0.496,all P<0.05).The comparison between the task state and the resting state further revealed that compensatory connec-tion enhanced in the alpha band in the frontal lobe and limbic system(6 nodes,5 edges,P<0.05)and in the beta band in the frontal,temporal,parietal,occipital lobes and limbic system(38 nodes,52 edges,P<0.01)in PSA pa-tients.Conclusion The core network damage characteristics of PSA patients are abnormally decreased global properties across multiple frequency bands and frequency-specific abnormal network reorganization,suggesting the overall brain network efficiency decline coexists with local compensation.This provides an objective basis for the neuroelec-trophysiological evaluation and targeted intervention of PSA.

Iron is an essential trace element in the human body, crucial in maintaining normal physiological functions. Recent studies have identified iron ions as a significant factor in initiating the ferroptosis process, a novel mode of programmed cell death characterized by iron overload and lipid peroxide accumulation. The iron metabolism pathway is one of the primary mechanisms regulating ferroptosis, as it maintains iron homeostasis within the cell. Numerous studies have demonstrated that abnormalities in iron metabolism can trigger the Fenton reaction, exacerbating oxidative stress, and leading to cell membrane rupture, cellular dysfunction, and damage to tissue structures. Therefore, regulation of iron metabolism represents a key strategy for ameliorating ferroptosis and offers new insights for treating diseases associated with iron metabolism imbalances. This review first summarizes the mechanisms that regulate iron metabolic pathways in ferroptosis and discusses the connections between the pathogenesis of various diseases and iron metabolism. Next, we introduce natural and synthetic small molecule compounds, hormones, proteins, and new nanomaterials that can affect iron metabolism. Finally, we provide an overview of the challenges faced by iron regulators in clinical translation and a summary and outlook on iron metabolism in ferroptosis, aiming to pave the way for future exploration and optimization of iron metabolism regulation strategies.

Objective:To investigate the killing effect of the oncolytic virus Rigvir on six different colorectal cancer cell lines in vitro and differences in the sensitivity of different cell lines to Rigvir,to analyze the differentially expressed genes and signaling pathways be-tween sensitive and insensitive cells and the reasons for such differences,to explore the killing mechanism of the oncolytic virus Rigvir on colorectal cancer cells based on experimental results,and to lay a theoretical foundation for the use of the oncolytic virus Rigvir as a novel immunotherapeutic drug for the treatment of colorectal can-cer.Methods:Cell Counting Kit-8(CCK-8)assay was used for quantitative assessment of the inhibition rate of Rigvir on cells,and the Annexin V-FITC\PI method was used to measure the apoptosis rate of sensitive cell lines and preliminarily analyze its killing mechanism.Bioinformatics techniques were used to investigate the differentially expressed genes and signaling pathways between sensitive and insensitive cells,and Western blot experiments were used for validation and detecting the expression of apoptosis factors.High expression of upstream factors in differential signaling pathways,and application of real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR)and WB to detect the effect of Rigvir on the expression levels of target genes and proteins in overexpressing sensitive cell lines.Results:SW480 and HT29 were sensitive to the oncolytic virus Rigvir,others had relatively insensi-tive(P<0.001).However,the inhibitory effect of Rigvir with two concentration gradients on HT29 was more significant(P<0.001).After 48 hours of infection,the cell inhibition rate of SW480 cells no longer increased with the prolongation of infection time(F=52.010,P=0.147),but it was more sensitive to changes in virus concentration(F=13.490,P<0.001).On the contrary,changes in virus concentration had no significant effect on the inhibition rate of HT29 cells(F=8.450,P=0.281),but the inhibition rate continued to in-crease after 48 hours with the prolongation of infection time(F=24.380,P<0.001).The apoptosis rate of sensitive group cells gradually increased with the prolongation of infection time(P<0.001),which mainly characterized by late stage apoptosis and necrotic cells.Through bioinformatics techniques,significant differences were observed in the classic PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway between the sensitive and insensitive groups.Western blot experiments showed that after the application of Rigvir,the upstream protein expression of PI3K/Akt/mTOR in the sensitive cell group was significantly reduced(P<0.001).The expression levels of apoptosis factors caspase-3 and caspase-8 increased,while the Bcl-2/Bax ratio decreased(P<0.001).The results of RT-qPCR and Western blot showed that after Rigvir was applied to the sensitive cell line HT29 overexpression type,the expression levels of PI3K/Akt/mTOR upstream and downstream signaling molecules(Akt,4EBP1,and p70S6K)were significantly reduced compared to the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Rigvir can effectively kill some colorectal cancer cell lines(SW480,HT29)in vitro,its mechanism of action is partially in-duced by the PI3K/Akt/mTOR classical signaling pathway to induce cell apoptosis.

Objective To explore the task-state electroencephalogram(EEG)characteristics of working memory in patients with post-stroke aphasia(PSA). Methods From September,2020 to February,2021,a total of eight patients with PSA(PSA group)and eight healthy adults(HC group)were recruited to collect EEG and memory scale data.The EEG data of working memory task-states were used to analyze the characteristics of the EEG frequency band indicators in time domain event-related potentials(ERP)and frequency;and the correlation with the items in the memory scale. Results Finally,five patients and five controls were included.N1 and P2 components were induced in the frontal area,and P300 components were induced in the parieto-occipital area.Compared with HC group,the activation of N1 and P2 increased in central prefrontal region,while the activity of P300 decreased in the right parieto-occipital re-gion in PSA group(|t|>2.193,P<0.05).The energy of theta band decreased in the right prefrontal region and the central parieto-occipital region,the energy of alpha1 band decreased in the left parieto-occipital region,and the energy of gamma band increased in the left central region(t>2.398,P<0.05).The energy of gamma band correlated with immediate recall(r = 0.914,P = 0.030)and correct recognition(r = 0.931,P = 0.022)of Auditory Verbal Learning Test,and inverting(r = 0.924,P = 0.025)and anterograde(r = 0.889,P = 0.044)of Digit Span Test. Conclusion Visual working memory task can activate the compensatory processing activity of memory related brain re-gions after PSA,which can be used as an objective indication for the evaluation of PSA working memory related research.There is close relationship between language impairment and working memory.
