Objective: To explore the association between negative life events and smartphone addiction among middle school students, so as to provide theoretical support and practical guidance for prevention and intervention of smartphone addiction among middle school students. Methods: Using cluster sampling, 8 890 students were selected to survey from 27 junior high schools and 3 senior high schools in a district of Shenzhen in 2022 (baseline) and 2023 (followup). Data were collected through selfresigned questionnaires on basic information, the Smartphone Addiction Scale-Short Version, and the Adolescent Selfrating Life Events Checklist. Mixedeffects models were employed to analyze the association. Results: Compared to 2022, the punishment scores of middle school students in 2023 [1.00 (0.00, 6.00) and 1.00 (0.00, 6.00)] decreased (Z=4.27), while the scores of interpersonal stress, learning stress and adaptation [4.00(0.00, 8.00), 4.00(0.00, 8.00); 4.00(1.00, 8.00), 5.00(2.00, 9.00); 2.00 (0.00, 6.00), 3.00 (0.00, 7.00)] increased (Z=-3.04, -8.36, -6.80) (P<0.01). Mixedeffects models revealed a positive doseresponse relationship between negative life events and smartphone addiction (OR=1.08-1.17, P<0.01). Stepwise regression showed independent positive effects of interpersonal stress (OR=1.05), academic stress (OR=1.03), and adaptation stress (OR=1.11) on smartphone addiction (P<0.01). Subgroup analysis of nonaddicted students in 2022 confirmed persistent associations for academic stress (OR=1.03) and adaptation (OR=1.07) (P<0.01). Conclusion Negative life events exhibit a positive doseresponse relationship with smartphone addiction, particularly interpersonal stress, academic stress, and adaptationrelated events.

Objective: To explore the longitudinal association between only-child status and smartphone addiction among middle school students, so as to provide a basis for establishing family intervention measures for smartphone addiction in middle school students. Methods: In October 2022 and October 2023, a preliminary survey and follow-up were conducted among 8 759 middle and high school students from 30 schools in a district of Shenzhen. A self-designed questionnaire was used to determine whether the students were the only-child, and the Chinese Version of the Smartphone Addiction Scale-Short Version (C-SAS-SV) was utilized to assess the students smartphone addiction status. A multilevel mixed-effects model and subgroup analysis were applied to examine the association between only-child status and smartphone addiction among middle school students. Results: During 2022 to 2023, the prevalence of smartphone addiction in the cohort of middle school students increased from 24.1% to 25.2%. Compared with only-child, non-only child were more likely to be addicted to smartphones (adjusted model: OR =1.2, 95% CI =1.1-1.4) and also scored higher on smartphone addiction (adjusted model: β =0.9, 95% CI =0.2-1.5)( P <0.05). Subgroup analysis further revealed that compared to baseline, non-only child demonstrated an increased prevalence of smartphone addiction (adjusted model: OR = 1.2 , 95% CI =1.0-1.5) and higher addiction scores (adjusted model: β =0.8, 95% CI =0.2-1.5) after one year( P <0.05). Conclusions Non-only child face higher risk of smartphone addiction. Under the current population policy, it is crucial to address smartphone addiction among middle school students who is not only child.

Objective: To explore the potential causal association between adolescent compulsive behaviour and smartphone addiction based on longitudinal data, so as to provide reference for the establishment of adolescent smartphone addiction interventions. Methods: A preliminary survey and follow-up were conducted on 8 907 middle and high school students in a district of Shenzhen in 2022 and 2023, respectively. Compulsive behaviours were measured by using the Mental Health Inventory for Middle School Students-60 Items (MMHI-60), smartphone addiction was assessed by using the Smartphone Addiction Scale-Short Version ( SAS- SV), and the associations between compulsive behaviours and smartphone addiction were analysed by using multilevel mixed-effects models and subgroup analyses. Results: Smartphone addiction detection rates among middle school students were significantly associated with genders, father s education level, mother s education level, study load subgroups, and whether or not they were single-parent families, and there were statistical differences ( χ 2=17.21-175.34, P <0.05). Students with compulsive behaviours were 2.98 times more likely to develop smartphone addiction than those without compulsive behaviours ( OR=2.98, 95%CI=2.77-3.22, P <0.05). Subgroup analysis of middle school students without smartphone addiction in the first year found that compulsive behaviours significantly predicted smartphone addiction ( OR= 1.76 , 95%CI=1.54-2.01, P <0.05). Conclusion There is a potential causal association between obsessive-compulsive behaviours and smartphone addiction in middle school students, and obsessive-compulsive behaviours in middle school students could significantly predicted the occurrence of smartphone addiction.

Objective:It aims to systematically evaluate the current status of knowledge,attitude,and practice(KAP)regarding universal commercial medical insurance among residents of the sample province from the demand-side perspective.Methods:Utilizing a quota sampling method,face-to-face surveys were conducted via the Questionnaire Star platform to collect demographic characteristics and KAP data of the participants.Comparisons of differences among different groups were made using t-tests,analysis of variance,and chi-square tests.Furthermore,multiple linear regression and structural equation modeling were utilized to analyze the influencing factors of KAP,as well as the pathways among these three factors.Results:Out of the 415 valid questionnaires collected,there were notable differences in KAP among respondents with diverse demographic backgrounds.Regression analysis revealed that education level,frequency of health check-ups,and engagement in other commercial health insurances significantly influenced knowledge;education level,involvement in other commercial health insurances,and self-assessed health status were pivotal in shaping attitudes;whereas age,education level,frequency of health check-ups,and participation in other commercial health insurances were critical in affecting practice.The path analysis results indicate that knowledge of universal commercial medical insurance has a significant direct association with attitude(β=0.379,P＜0.001)and practice(β=0.323,P＜0.001).It also influences practice through attitude as a mediator(β=0.016,P＜0.001),but the direct effect of attitude on practice is not significant(β=0.04,P=0.403).Conclusion:While residents in the sample province exhibit a positive attitude towards universal commercial medical insurance,there is a need to enhance their level of knowledge and engagement in practice.It is recommended to strengthen targeted educational and promotional measures to promote the healthy and sustainable development of universal insurance.

Objective To investigate the effects of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation(TENS)combined with mobilization with movement(MWM)on clinical efficacy,musculoskeletal ultrasound findings and bone metabolism indicators in patients with knee osteoarthritis(KOA).Methods Ninety KOA patients were collected and randomly divided into the control group(conventional rehabilitation+TENS,n=45)and the observation group(conventional rehabilitation+TENS+MWM,n=45)using a random number table.Clinical efficacy,knee joint function,musculoskeletal ultrasound indices and bone metabolism indices were compared between the two groups.Results The clinical efficacy of the observation group was superior to that of the control group(P＜0.05).At 2 and 6 months post-treatment,Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index(WOMAC)were significantly lower in the observation group than those of the control group,and Lysholm Knee Scoring Scale scores were higher in the observation group than those of the control group(P＜0.05).Additionally,articular cartilage thickness,bone gla protein(BGP)and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase(BALP)were higher in the observation group than those of the control group,and synovial thickness,suprapatellar effusion and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b(TRACP-5b)were lower in the observation group than those of the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion TENS combined with MWM in the treatment of KOA patients can not only improve knee joint function but also optimize musculoskeletal ultrasound indices and regulate bone metabolism indices.

SPF chickens were immunized with HN-mRNA vaccine by intramuscular injection.He-magglutination inhibition(HI)test,lymphocyte proliferation test,RT-qPCR and pathological sec-tions were used to evaluate the humoral and cellular immunity and protection against challenge in-duced by the candidate HN-mRNA vaccine.The results showed that 2.5,5.0,and 7.5 μg HN-mR-NA induced HI antibody antibodies in a dose-dependent manner.Among them,the Hi antibody in-duced by 7.5 μg HN-mRNA was slightly higher than that of the weak toxic vaccine(La Sota strain).In addition,in response to the stimulation of inactivated NDV virus,the proliferation and activation of lymphocytes in 2.5,5.0 and 7.5 μg HN-mRNA immunization groups and commercial vaccine group were observed.To further evaluate the antiviral protection provided by HN mRNA immunization,the 105 ELD50 NDV strong strain NA-1 was used to attack the 7.5 μg HN-mRNA immunised group and the commercial weakened vaccine(La Sota strain)and PBS groups using na-sal and ocular drops.The results showed that the survival rate of 7.5 μg HN-mRNA immunization group and commercial vaccine group was 100％,and these vaccines could protect tissues and or-gans from the damage caused by virus infection.At the same time,7.5 μg HN-mRNA and commer-cial vaccine could shorten the time of virus shedding in vitro and the viral load in vivo.This study provides a foundational framework for the clinical application of NDV HN mRNA candidate vac-cines and offers insights for the development of novel mRNA vaccines for poultry.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects and potential mechanism of paeoniflorin on oxidative stress of ulcerative colitis(UC)mice based on adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase(AMPK)/nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2(Nrf2)pathway.METHODS Male BALB/c mice were randomly divided into control group,model group,inhibitor group(AMPK inhibitor Compound C 20 mg/kg),paeoniflorin low-,medium-and high-dose groups(paeoniflorin 12.5,25,50 mg/kg),high-dose of paeoniflorin+inhibitor group(paeoniflorin 50 mg/kg+Compound C 20 mg/kg),with 8 mice in each group.Except for the control group,mice in all other groups were given 4%dextran sulfate sodium solution for 5 days to establish the UC model.Subsequently,mice in each drug group were given the corresponding drug solution intragastrically or intraperitoneally,once a day,for 7 consecutive days.The changes in body weight of mice were recorded during the experiment.Twenty-four hours after the last administration,colon length,malondialdehyde(MDA)content,and activities of superoxide dismutase(SOD)and glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px)in colon tissues were measured;histopathological morphology of colon tissues,tight junctions between intestinal epithelial cells,and histopathological scoring were all observed and evaluated;the mRNA expressions of AMPK and Nrf2,as well as the protein expressions of heme oxygenase-1(HO-1),occludin and claudin-1,were all determined in colon tissue.RESULTS Compared with model group,paeoniflorin groups exhibited recovery from pathological changes such as inflammatory cell infiltration and crypt damage in the colon tissue,as well as improved tight junction damage between intestinal epithelial cells.Additionally,significant increases or upregulations were observed in body weight,colon length,activities of SOD and GSH-Px,phosphorylation level of AMPK,and protein expression of Nrf2,HO-1,occludin,claudin-1,and mRNA expressions of AMPK and Nrf2;concurrently,MDA content and histopathological scores were significantly reduced(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).In contrast,the inhibitor group showed comparable(P＞0.05)or worse(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01)indicators compared to the model group.Conversely,the addition of AMPK inhibitor could significantly reverse the improvement of high-dose paconiflorin(P＜0.01).CONCLUSIONS Paeoniflorin can repair intestinal epithelial cell damage in mice,improve tight junctions between epithelial cells,upregulate the expression of related proteins,and promote the expression and secretion of antioxidant-promoting molecules,thereby ameliorating UC;its mechanism may be associated with activating AMPK/Nrf2 antioxidant pathway.

Objective To explore the different potential subtypes of psychosocial adaptation among young and middle-aged stroke patients,and analyze the relationship between different potential subtypes and quality of life,so as to provide references for the subsequent development of targeted interventions.Methods A total of 406 young and middle-aged stroke patients in 4 tertiary hospitals in Suzhou from June 2023 to June 2024 were recruited by convenience sampling.The General Information Questionnaire,the Self-Report Psychosocial Adjustment to Illness Scale and the EuroQol five-dimensional questionnaire were conducted for investigation.Latent profile analysis was used to explore the potential subtypes of psychosocial adaptation among young and middle-aged stroke patients.Generalized linear regression analysis was conducted with quality of life as dependent variables.Results A total of 380 young and middle-aged stroke patients were included.The psychosocial adaptation of patients could be classified into 3 potential subtypes:high adaptation level type(23.90％),medium adaptation level with health concerns type(46.40％),and low adaptation level with psychological barriers type(29.70％).The results of generalized linear regression analysis showed that potential subtypes of psychosocial adaptation were the influencing factors for quality of life in young and middle-aged stroke patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion There was group heterogeneity in psychosocial adaptation among young and middle-aged stroke patients,and the potential subtype of psychosocial adaption was an important factor affecting the quality of life of patients.It is suggested that medical staff should focus on patients with low adaptation level with psychological barriers type,and take targeted interventions according to characteristics of different subtypes of patients,so as to improve their quality of life.
