To investigate the effects of Wogonin (WO) on learning and memory impairment, Aβ1-42 was injected intracerebroventricularly to induced a mouse learning and memory impairment model, and D-galactose was injected intraperitoneally to induced a mouse acute aging model. Mice were administered WO (75, 150, or 300 mg/kg) by oral gavage for 28 consecutive days. Cognitive function was assessed using the Morris water maze (MWM), novel object recognition (NOR), and open field tests (OFT). In the Aβ1-42 model, WO treatment (150 and 300 mg/kg) significantly improved the recognition index in the NOR test, while the 150 mg/kg group showed increased target quadrant preference in the MWM test. No changes in the total distance traveled in OFT. In the D-galactose aging model, the 150 mg/kg WO group exhibited increased platform crossings in the MWM test, and all WO doses (75, 150, and 300 mg/kg) enhanced target quadrant preference, with no alterations in spontaneous movement. Western blot analysis revealed that WO significantly attenuated hippocampal apoptosis in both models. These findings suggest that WO ameliorates learning and memory impairment associated with Alzheimer’s disease and aging.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors affecting pathological diagnosis upgrading after resection of colorectal laterally spreading tumor (LST).Methods:From June 2018 to December 2022, the clinical data of 256 patients with LST (297 lesions) admitted to Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital were retrospectively included as an modeling group.From January 2023 to January 2024, 125 patients with LST (129 lesions) were collected as an external validation group. The pathological diagnosis of endoscopic forceps biopsy (EFB) samples and the resected LST tissue of modeling group were compared, and the patients were divided into pathological non-difference group and pathological upgrading group. The clinical data such as gender, age, body mass index (BMI), pre-resection carcinoembryonic antigen levels, drinking history, smoking history, family history of colorectal cancer, and whether complicated with underlying diseases as well as endoscopic surface morphological features such as lesion size, morphological features, and lesion location were compared between the two groups. Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis, and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors for pathological diagnosis upgrading after resection. Based on the independent risk factors, the prediction models were established and validated by nomogram. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) of repeated samples within the modeling group and external validation growp was plotted, and the area under the curve (AUC) was used to evaluate the predictive value of the model.Results:The proportion of patients with family history of colorectal cancer in the pathological upgrading group was higher than that of the pathological non-difference group (38.7%, 12/31 vs. 22.2%, 50/225), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=4.04, P=0.045). There were statistically significant differences in lesion size (63.9% (23/36) and 44.4% (116/261) lesions with long diameter ≥2 cm, respectively), surface morphological characteristics (flat elevated type accounted for 8.3% (3/36) and 22.6% (59/261), granular uniform type accounted for 11.1% (4/36) and 28.0% (73/261), nodular mixed type accounted for 44.4% (6/36) and 24.9% (65/261), pseudo-depressed type accounted for 36.1% (13/36) and 24.5% (64/261)), and lesion location (distal colon accounted for 22.2% (8/36) and 33.3% (87/261), proximal colon accounted for 16.7% (6/36) and 28.7% (75/261), and rectum accounted for 61.1% (22/36) and 37.9% (99/261)) between the pathological upgrading group and the pathological non-difference group ( χ2=4.80, 12.62 and 7.08, all P<0.05). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that family history of colorectal cancer ( OR=2.211, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.005 to 4.861, P=0.049), lesion length ≥ 2 cm ( OR=2.212, 95% CI 1.074 to 4.555, P=0.031), nodular mixed subtype ( OR=4.841, 95% CI 1.343 to 17.455, P=0.016), pseudo-depressed subtype ( OR=3.995, 95% CI 1.084 to 14.721, P=0.037), and lesion in rectum ( OR=2.417, 95% CI 1.024 to 5.705, P=0.044) were independent risk factors for pathological diagnosis upgrading after LST resection. A nomogram was established based on these four risk factors, with a ROC AUC of 0.833 (95% CI 0.752 to 0.913). The external validation results demonstrated that the ROC AUC was 0.848 (95% CI 0.736 to 0.960), the sensitivity was 0.737, the specificity was 0.972, the maximum Youden index was 0.712, and the overall accuracy was 0.868. Conclusions:Family history of colorectal cancer, lesion length ≥ 2 cm, lesion in rectum, and nodular mixed or pseudo-depressed subtypes may affect the accuracy of pathological diagnosis of LST lesions by EFB, and leading to pathological diagnosis upgrading after resection. The prediction model based on these four factors has good predictive efficacy in pathological diagnosis upgrading after LST resection.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of endoscopic argon ion coagulation combined with mesalazine enteric fluid in the treatment of chronic radiation proctitis with hemorrhage.Methods:A retrospective case control study was conducted. The clinical data of 82 patients with chronic radiation proctitis with hemorrhage admitted to Shanxi Province Cancer Hospital from January 2019 to January 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the treatment methods, all patients were divided into the observation group (endoscopic argon ion coagulation combined with mesalazine enteric fluid retention enema, 44 cases) and the control group (0.9% NaCl solution 20 ml + thrombin 1 000 U combined with mesalazine enteric fluid retention enema, 38 cases). The clinical efficacy, proctoscopy scores, laboratory indexes [C-reactive protein (CRP), hemoglobin (Hb)] and the adverse reactions of the two groups 1 month after treatment were compared.Results:There were no statistically significant differences in gender, age, body mass index and disease classification between the two groups (all P > 0.05). After 1 month of treatment, the total effective rate of the observation group was higher than that of the control group [93.18% (41/44) vs.76.32% (29/38)], and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 4.64, P = 0.031). The degree of intestinal injury, anal pain and naked blood stool in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (all P < 0.05). The level of CRP 1 month after treatment was lower than that before treatment in both groups, and the level of Hb 1 month after treatment was higher than that before treatment in both groups (all P < 0.001); and there were no statistically significant differences in the levels of CRP ahd Hb before treatment and 1 month after treatment between the both groups (all P > 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the adverse reactions between the two groups ( P > 0.05). Conclusions:Endoscopic argon ion coagulation combined with mesalazine enteric fluid in the treatment of chronic radiation proctitis with hemorrhage has a favorable effect and a good safety, which can improve the symptoms of hematochezia, diarrhea, anemia and improve the quality of life of patients.

Objective:To explore the application value of histogram and texture feature analysis based on CT images in distinguishing long bone osteosarcoma (OS) from Ewing sarcoma (ES).Methods:A retrospective collection of 25 patients with long bone osteosarcoma and 25 patients with Ewing sarcoma confirmed by surgery and pathology in National Cancer Center/National Clinical Research Center for Cancer/Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University and Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, Nanjing University Medical School, from March 2018 to May 2023 was conducted. All patients were randomly divided into a training set (21 cases of OS and 19 cases of ES) and a validation set (4 cases of OS and 6 cases of ES) in an 8∶2 ratio. The region of interest (ROI) on CT images to extract texture feature parameters was manually sketched. Random forest and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) algorithm were used for feature screening. Logistic regression (LR), random forest (RF), support vector machine (SVM) and K-nearest neighbor (KNN) classifiers were used to establish models respectively. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC)curve was drawn and area under the curve (AUC) was calculated to evaluate the diagnostic efficiency of the four models.Results:A total of 100 texture parameters were extracted from CT images, and 8 feature parameters (maximum 3D diameter, 10th percentile, kurtosis, maximum pixel intensity value, inverse normalization, grayscale level variance, long range high grayscale emphasis, and low grayscale area emphasis) were obtained through screening. Four classifiers were used to establish models, and the AUC values of the four models (LR, RF, SVM, KNN) in the validation group were 0.92, 0.79, 0.83, and 0.73, respectively. LR and SVM classifier algorithm trains models had high diagnostic efficiency, with an accuracy of 90%, sensitivity of 83%, specificity of 100%, and AUC of 92% for the LR classifier validation set; the accuracy of SVM classifier validation set was 80%, sensitivity was 67%, specificity was 100%, and AUC was 83%.Conclusions:LR and SVM models have high value in distinguishing OS and ES.

Objective:To explore the diagnostic value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) Q-Dixon fat quantification technique in differentiating vertebral metastases from hemangiomas in cancer patients.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 20 patients with vertebral metastases and 8 with vertebral hemangiomas who underwent vertebral MRI scans at the National Cancer Center/National Clinical Research Center for Cancer/Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College from December 2021 to December 2023. Two radiologists independently measured the fat fractions (FF) in three areas (the lesion area, the normal area of the same vertebra, and the normal area of an adjacent vertebra) and evaluated the consistency of measurements. Group differences were tested using independent sample t-tests or Mann-Whitney U tests, and diagnostic performance was assessed by plotting the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and calculating the area under the curve (AUC). Results:There was very high inter-observer consistency in the FF measurements across the three regions. The FF in the lesion areas of vertebral metastases group was significantly lower than that in the vertebral hemangioma group (13.8 ± 11.5 vs. 56.5 ± 22.1), there was statistical difference ( P<0.01). There were no significant differences in the FF of normal vertebral areas between the two groups ( P>0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that FF could differentiate vertebral metastases from hemangiomas with an AUC of 0.931, a specificity of 90%, and a sensitivity of 87.5%. Conclusions:The FF measured by the Q-Dixon quantitative fat technique can accurately differentiate between vertebral hemangiomas and vertebral metastases, providing more precise guidance for the diagnosis of vertebral lesions.

ObjectiveBased on the new method of animal model evaluation， this paper summarized and analyzed the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） and Western medicine syndromes in existing autism spectrum disorder（ASD） animal models， and put forward suggestions for improvement. MethodRelevant literature on ASD animal models in China National Knowledge Infrastructure（CNKI） and PubMed were searched. According to the diagnostic standards of traditional Chinese and western medicine， core symptoms and accompanying symptoms were assigned values， and the clinical consistency of the models was comprehensively evaluated. ResultMost ASD model experimental animals were rodents， and the modeling methods included genetic and non-genetic. Domestic research focused on biochemical induction， while foreign research used genetic models more commonly. Among all models， valproic acid induction had the highest clinical consistency， followed by the neuroligin 4（NLGN4） and contactin associated protein like 2（CNTNAP2） gene knockout models. Most modeling methods could meet the characteristics of surface validity and structural validity， but did not clearly distinguish TCM syndromes. Currently， there is no model that has a high degree of clinical agreement between TCM and western medicine at the same time. ConclusionThe existing ASD animal models are mostly constructed under the guidance of western medicine， which lacks the characteristics of TCM syndromes. And the selection of evaluation indicators of western medicine is relatively single， without specifying the types of TCM syndromes. It is recommended to apply TCM intervention factors during the process of model preparation， to improve the evaluation indicators of traditional Chinese and western medicine， and to emphasize the study of on non-human primates， so as to lay a solid foundation for future experiments.

Objective To explore the relevant relationship and specificity between the implicit and explicit loyalty of military cadets in order to provide a theoretical basis and objective indicators for a more comprehensive and objective assessment for individual loyalty.Methods E-Prime 2.0,a classic implicit association paradigm was employed to construct an implicit association loyalty test for 64 military cadets.Simultaneously,an explicit loyalty measurement was conducted using the Chinese Military Personnel Loyalty Scale.Results ① Significant implicit effect was observed in the loyalty assessment of military cadets,indicating a general tendency to perceive higher levels of personal loyalty and lower levels of loyalty to external entities.② Explicit loyalty assessment revealed that the participants had the highest loyalty score towards the Party,the Nation,and the People(4.79±0.34),followed by the loyalty score to their profession(4.38±0.53),and the relatively lower loyalty score towards the unit and leaders(4.03±0.83).Among the 3 dimensions of loyalty,the normative loyalty score ranked highest,while continuance loyalty score took lower.③ There were no correlations among the scores of loyalty to the Party,the Nation,and the People(r=-0.030,P=0.823),to the profession(r=-0.047,P=0.728),to the unit(r=0.050,P=0.710),or to the leaders(r=0.043,P=0.749).Conclusion The implicit effect in the loyalty assessment is significant in military cadets,and there is no significant correlation between explicit and implicit loyalty measurements.Thus,we cannot rely solely on explicit measurements to assess their loyalty attitudes.

[Objective]To investigate primary and secondary transfer of exfoliated cells from human hands on non-porous substrates such as plastic steering wheel or computer mouse.[Methods]DNA detection sensitivity and detection limit for mixed DNA profiling were examined to understand our laboratory's ability to test for trace DNA.Forensic swabs were used to collect samples from volunteers'one-hour-long unwashed hands,substrates touched by volunteers'immediately or 30 min following shaking hands,and individual A's daily-use substrates touched by individual B and then by individual A again.Simulations were conducted to assess the potential for introduction of another person's exfoliated cells from hands into routine casework samples.[Results]Our laboratory can obtain a full DNA profile from as little as 0.020 ng of DNA and detect minor components in a 1:9 mixed DNA sample.85%of samples from unwashed hands yielded a full DNA profile.Primary transfer of a full DNA profile was found in 77%of substrates touched by volunteers'dominant hand 30 min after hand washing,allowing differentiation between good and poor shedders,with no significant difference in genders and substrate types.75%of substrates touched 30 min after hand washing and then immediately following handshaking yielded the other individual's DNA profile(secondary transfer),with the number of short tandem repeat(STR)loci detected ranging from 0 to 23;the percentage and number decreased substantially when the substrates were touched 30 minutes later.No foreign DNA was detected in routine casework samples with introduced exfoliated cells from hands.When two individuals took turns touching items with their hands,the major contributor to the DNA profile was not always the individual who made the last contact.[Conclusions]Primary and secondary DNA transfer can be detected on non-porous substrates,and based on the deposit of hand exfoliated cells,individuals can be categorized as good or poor shedders,which is an important factor affecting detection of DNA transfer.Besides considering the laboratory's DNA detection sensitivity,if DNA is detected on substrates by hand contact,we need to take into account the potential for secondary transfer at different levels of activity when interpreting the results.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and mental health status through network analysis in college students, so as to provide empirical evidence for the development of targeted intervention programs. Methods: From October to November 2023, a survey was conducted on 1 974 college students from three universities in Hubei Province by using ACEs Questionnaire and Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90). The network analysis method was used to construct a network structure to analyze the association between ACEs and SCL-90 symptom factors among college students. Results: The network structure of SCL-90 symptom factors and ACEs was stable, each forming a relatively tight cluster; there were 89 non zero edges between ACEs and SCL-90 symptom factors. Emotional neglect-depression played a significant pathway role in connecting the ACEs and SCL-90 symptom factors network. Depression, anxiety, and interpersonal sensitivity of SCL-90 symptom factors had the highest centrality in the ACEs and SCL-90 symptom factors network. Emotional neglect and physical neglect in ACEs and depression and psychoticism in SCL-90 symptom factors had a high node bridge expected influence, acting as Touchpoints to activate the whole network. Conclusion Early identification and intervention of emotional and physical neglect, with a focus on depression, anxiety, and interpersonal sensitivity symptoms of childhood neglected individuals, which is beneficial for improving the overall mental health level of college students.
