Background The association between occupational physical activity (OPA) and cardiometabolic risk factors remains controversial, potentially due to differences in the associations between OPA and various cardiometabolic indicators, as well as the lack of a clearly defined optimal OPA range for multiple-indicator synergistic benefits. Objective To investigate the relationship between OPA and cardiometabolic risk factors in individuals at high risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in Hubei Province, and to explore an optimal OPA range for multi-indicator improvements. Methods Data were derived from the Hubei Province dataset of the China Health Evaluation And Risk Reduction Through Nationwide Teamwork from 2015 to 2023, including 19028 high-risk CVD individuals. OPA (metabolic equivalent·h·d⁻¹, MET·h·d⁻¹) was assessed using the China Kadoorie Biobank physical activity questionnaire, anthropometric measurements (height, weight, waist circumference) and cardiometabolic indicators (blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, lipid profiles) were measured. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the association between logOPA quartiles (Q1-Q4) and abnormal cardiometabolic indicators, while restricted cubic spline (RCS) models were employed to explore their dose-response relationships. Subgroup and interaction analyses were also conducted by gender. Results The median OPA of all participants was 12.86 MET·h·d⁻¹ (male: 14.40 MET·h·d⁻¹, female: 11.14 MET·h·d⁻¹). After adjusting for confounders, compared with the Q1 group, logOPA in the Q4 group was associated with 20% (OR=0.80, 95%CI: 0.72, 0.89), 14% (OR=0.86, 95%CI: 0.78, 0.96), and 13% (OR=0.87, 95%CI: 0.79, 0.95) reduction in the risk of abdominal obesity, low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and metabolic syndrome (MS), respectively, and 33% (OR=1.33, 95%CI: 1.18, 1.49), 33% (OR=1.33, 95%CI: 1.18, 1.50), and 38% (OR=1.38, 95%CI: 1.21, 1.57) increase in the risk of high total cholesterol (TC), high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and high non-HDL-C, respectively. Similar trends were observed in males and females, with significant positive associations of logOPA with high TC and high non-HDL-C in males (P_interaction<0.05). The risk of low HDL-C decreased rapidly when logOPA was more than 2.213 (OPA>9.14 MET·h·d⁻¹), showing an inverted L-shaped trend. The risk of high TC, high LDL-C, and high non-HDL-C increased beyond logOPA thresholds of 3.244, 2.476, and 3.377 (OPA >25.64, 11.89, and 29.28 MET·h·d⁻¹), respectively, showing a J-shaped trend. However, logOPA exhibited a U-shaped nonlinear dose-response relationship with blood pressure and fasting blood glucose abnormalities (P_non-linear<0.05) , with minimal risks at logOPA 2.969 and 2.372 (OPA of 19.47 and 10.72 MET·h·d⁻¹). Conclusion OPA exhibits heterogeneous dose-response patterns across cardiometabolic indicators. Integrating the inverted L-, J-, and U-shaped association patterns, we suggest an optimal OPA range of 9.14−25.64 MET·h·d⁻¹ for multiple cardiometabolic indicators in total individuals at high-risk of CVD, with ranges of 9.61−31.34 MET·h·d⁻¹ for males and 8.97−22.87 MET·h·d⁻¹ for females. These findings provide critical evidence for developing OPA interventions strategies targeting high-risk population for CVD.

Elemene is widely recognized as an effective anti-cancer compound and is routinely administered in Chinese clinical settings for the management of several solid tumors, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, its detailed molecular mechanism has not been adequately demonstrated. In this research, it was demonstrated that elemene effectively curtailed NSCLC growth in the patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model. Mechanistically, employing high-throughput screening techniques and subsequent biochemical validations such as microscale thermophoresis (MST), microRNA-145-5p (miR-145-5p) was pinpointed as a critical target through which elemene exerts its anti-tumor effects. Interestingly, elemene serves as a binding stabilizer for miR-145-5p, demonstrating a strong binding affinity (dissociation constant (K _D) = 0.39 ± 0.17 μg/mL) and preventing its degradation both in vitro and in vivo, while not interfering with the synthesis of the primary microRNA transcripts (pri-miRNAs) and precursor miRNAs (pre-miRNAs). The stabilization of miR-145-5p by elemene resulted in an increased level of this miRNA, subsequently suppressing NSCLC progression through the miR-145-5p/mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 3 (MAP3K3)/nuclear factor kappaB (NF-κB) pathway. Our findings provide a new perspective on revealing the interaction patterns between clinical anti-tumor drugs and miRNAs.

Glioma is the most common primary malignant tumor of the central nervous system in adults. Despite the standard treatment of surgery combined with radiotherapy and chemotherapy, the prognosis for high-grade glioma patients remains poor, highlighting the urgent need to further explore its pathogenesis and develop new therapeutic strategies. This article reviews the research progress in the field of glioma in China in 2024, covering tumorigenesis mechanisms, tumor immune microenvironment composition, advances in imaging techniques and novel imaging agents, improvements in surgical approaches, mechanisms of radio- and chemoresistance, and explorations of new therapeutic modalities. These studies provide a solid theoretical foundation for advancing clinical diagnosis and treatment of gliomas and may offer new opportunities to improve patient outcomes.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects and mechanisms of cinnamaldehyde(CA)on hepatic fibrosis in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)rats.Methods A NAFLD rat model was established using a high-fat diet.Successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into:model group,low-and high-dose CA groups,and high-dose CA+K6PC-5[a sphingosine kinase-1(SphK1)activator]group,with healthy rats as normal controls.After intervention,serum lipid profiles[total cholesterol(TC),triglycerides(TG),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)]and liver function markers[alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST)]were measured using an automated biochemical analyzer.Serum inflammatory cytokines(TNF-α,IL-6,IFN-γ)were quantified by ELISA.Hepatic histopathology was evaluated via hematoxylin-eosin(HE)and Masson staining.Immunohistochemistry detected fibrosis-related proteins(COL1A1,α-SMA),while Western Blot analyzed SphK1 and sphingosine-1-phosphate(S1P)expression.Results Compared with the normal group,the model group showed significant destruction of hepatic lobule structure,hepatocyte swelling and degeneration,disordered cell arrangement,abundant lipid vacuoles in cytoplasm,obvious inflammatory cell infiltration,extensive blue collagen fiber deposition,and severe fibrosis.Moreover,the levels of TC,TG,LDL-C,ALT,AST,TNF-α,IL-6,IFN-γ,COL1A1,α-SMA,SphK1,and S1P were significantly increased,while HDL-C levels were decreased,with statistically significance(P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,both low-and high-dose CA groups demonstrated alleviated liver histopathological changes,reduced blue collagen fiber deposition,and improved fibrosis.These groups also showed significantly decreased levels of TC,TG,LDL-C,ALT,AST,TNF-α,IL-6,IFN-γ,COL1A1,α-SMA,SphK1,and S1P,along with increased HDL-C levels(P＜0.05).However,compared with the high-dose CA group,the high-dose CA+K6PC-5 group exhibited more severe destruction of hepatic lobule structure,aggravated hepatocyte swelling and degeneration,dramatically increased cytoplasmic lipid vacuoles,significant inflammatory cell infiltration,increased blue collagen fiber deposition,and worsened fibrosis.This group also had significantly elevated levels of TC,TG,LDL-C,ALT,AST,TNF-α,IL-6,IFN-γ,COL1A1,α-SMA,SphK1,and S1P,along with reduced HDL-C levels(P＜0.05).Conclusion CA alleviates hepatic fibrosis in NAFLD rats by inhibiting the SphK1/S1P signaling pathway.

OBJECTIVE To mine the adverse drug event （ADE） signals of selinexor， and to provide reference for its clinical safety medication. METHODS ADE data for selinexor reported from July 3rd， 2019 to March 31st， 2023 were collected from the FDA adverse event reporting system （FAERS）. Data mining was performed by using the reporting odds ratio （ROR） and proportional reporting ratio （PRR） methods， and categorization statistics were performed by using the system organ class （SOC） and preferred term （PT） from drug ADE terminology set in the MedDRA （version 26.0）. RESULTS A total of 3 084 ADE reports were obtained for selinexor， with a total of 134 ADE-positive signals. Among the reported genders， there were 127 males and 124 females， with a predominant age of ≥65 years old （4.12%）； the United States had the highest number of reports （96.53%）， with consumers being the main reporters （77.27%）； severe ADR was mainly characterized by hospitalization/prolonged hospitalization （26.26%）， followed by death （17.15%）. The top 3 ADE in the list of frequency were nausea （1 162 times）， fatigue （790 times） and anorexia （610 times）， all of which were mentioned in the selinexor’s instructions. The top 3 signals in the list of strength were device-associated bacteremia （ROR＝115.07， PRR＝114.94）， blepharospasm dysfunction （ROR＝106.70， PRR＝106.54）， and salmonella sepsis （ROR＝99.90， PRR＝99.81）， all of which were not mentioned in the selinexor’s instructions. CONCLUSIONS In addition to the ADE of nausea mentioned in the instruction manual， attention should also paid to device-associated bacteremia， blepharospasm dysfunction， salmonella sepsis， and other ADE not mentioned in the instruction manual when using selinexor in clinical practice； weekly rechecking of the patient’s blood routine should be done to monitor the patient’s blood indexes， symptoms of infection， and so on， to ensure that the safety of 1661962346@qq.com drug use.

OBJECTIVE To explore the effect mechanism of Eucommia ulmoides on improving postpartum depression in rats. METHODS Pregnant rats were randomly divided into normal group， postpartum depression group， and low-dose and high-dose groups of E. ulmoides （1.34， 2.68 g/kg， calculated by crude drug）， with 10 rats in each group. Except for the normal group， the rats in other groups suffered from fear stress to induce postpartum depression model during pregnancy； at the same time of modeling， the administration groups were given relevant medicine intragastrically， while the normal group and postpartum depression group were given physiological saline intragastrically for 21 days. Postpartum behaviors of rats during the experiment were assessed using the open field test， Morris water maze test and sucrose preference test. Additionally， the levels of corticosterone （CORT） in serum， corticotropin releasing factor （CRF） and urocortin （UCN） in hypothalamus， and adrenocorticotropic hormone （ACTH） in hypophysis were detected； meanwhile， the protein expressions of CRF receptor 1 （CRFR1）， CRFR2， and voltage-dependent anion channel 1 （VDAC1） in hippocampal tissue were measured； the proportions of apoptotic cells and JC-1 high potential cells in hippocampal tissue were determined， and the morphology of hippocampal tissue was observed. RESULTS Compared with postpartum depression group， the high-dose group of E. ulmoides showed improvements in appetite， mental state， and hair color in rats； their body weight had increased； the scores of vertical movement， horizontal movement and self-sorting significantly increased； from the 2ed to 4th day avoidance latency significantly shortened， and the times of crossing the platform and the time of crossing the platform Δ 基金项目国家自然科学基金青年基金项目（No.82204789） significantly increased/prolonged （P＜0.05）； the ratio of glucose and water consumption significantly increased at 20 days of pregnancy and 30 days postpartum （P＜0.05）； the levels of CRF， UCN， ACTH and CORT， phagocytic rate， protein expressions of CRFR2 and VDAC1， and the proportion of apoptosis cells in hippocampal tissue were decreased significantly （P＜0.05）； the proportion of JC-1 high potential cells significantly increased （P＜0.05）， and the phenomenon of edema around neuronal cells was significantly improved. CONCLUSIONS E. ulmoides can improve postpartum depression by inhibiting excessive activation of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis， decreasing the expression of CRFR2， thereby inhibiting the expression of VDAC1， and decreasing the apoptosis of neuronal cells.

BackgroundIn China， the structure shift from just one-child family to both one-child and more-than-one-child families is happening. Exploring how the sibling relationships effect between adolescent personality impulsivity and aggressivity is of great significance for promoting adolescent mental health as well as maintaining social harmony and stability. ObjectiveTo investigate the effecting path of sibling relationships between personality impulsivity and aggressivity in adolescents， so as to provide references for the prevention of violent and aggressive behavior in adolescents. MethodsFrom February to April， 2023， a total of 1 200 students with sibling relationships from 12 primary and secondary schools in a county of Sichuan province were included by random sampling. Barratt Impulsivity Scale （BIS-11）， Chinese Version of Buss & Perry Aggression Questionnaire （AQ-CV）， and Sibling Relationship Questionnaire （SRQ） were used for cross-sectional investigation. Pearson Correlation Analysis was used to analyze the correlation between the scores of these scales. Bootstrap method was used to test the effecting path of sibling relationships between personality impulsivity and aggressivity. ResultsThe total score of BIS-11 was positively correlated with that of AQ-CV as well as the scores of conflict and competition dimensions in SRQ （r=0.485、0.276、0.280，P<0.01）， while negatively correlated with the score of warmth/intimacy dimension in SRQ （r=-0.383， P<0.01）. The total score of AQ-CV was positively correlated with the scores of conflict and competition dimensions in SRQ （r=0.387， 0.340， P<0.01）， while negatively correlated with the score of warmth/intimacy dimension in SRQ （r=-0.304， P<0.01）. Within SRQ， negative correlations could be observed between the score of warmth/intimacy and scores of conflict and competition （r=-0.307， -0.375， P<0.01）， whereas positive correlation could be observed between the score of conflict and that of competition （r=0.267， P<0.01）. The total effect of personality impulsivity level on aggressivity level in adolescent was 0.480 （P<0.01）. Sibling relationships played a mediating role between personality impulsivity and aggressivity in adolescents. Meanwhile， the indirect effect values of warmth/intimacy， conflict and competition were 0.054， 0.075 and 0.062， with the effect values accounting for 11.21%， 15.70% and 12.93%， respectively. ConclusionThe personality impulsivity of adolescents can directly affect their aggressivity， and sibling relationships may act as an important channel connecting personality impulsivity and aggressivity. ［Funded by 2023 Project of the Psychology and Behavioral Science Research Center of the Deyang Federation of Social Sciences （number， XLYXW2023305）］
