Objective: To investigate the relationship between pubertal timing and depressive symptoms among high school students in Suzhou, so as to provide scientific evidence for promoting adolescents mental health. Methods: From October 2023 to January 2024, 3 369 students were selected from 20 high schools in Suzhou using stratified cluster random sampling method. Physical examinations and questionnaire surveys were conducted. The Preece & Baines growth Model 1 was used to calculate the age at take off of height velocity (ATO) and age at peak height velocity (APHV), categorizing students into three groups: early pubertal timing group (< P 15 ), ontime group ( P 15 - P 85 ), and delayed group (> P 85 ). Binary Logistic regression was used to analyze its association with depressive symptoms. Results: The ATO for male and female high school students in Suzhou was (9.35±1.23) and ( 8.12 ±1.52) years old, respectively. The mean APHV was (12.35±0.74) years old for boys and (10.91±0.82) years old for girls. The overall prevalence of depressive symptoms was 34.22%, with no statistically significant gender difference ( χ 2=0.42, P =0.52). Significant differences in depressive symptom prevalence were observed across grade levels, breakfast frequency, weekly days of moderate to vigorous physical activity, daily sleep duration, history of school bullying, and the presence of Internet addiction ( χ 2=5.03-69.21, all P < 0.05 ). After adjusting for age, body mass index, region, boarding status, breakfast frequency, weekly moderate to vigorous physical activity days, sleep duration, campus bullying, and presence of Internet addiction, Logistic regression analysis revealed that when ATO was used to evaluate pubertal timing, the risk of depressive symptoms in the delayed group of boys was 1.65 times that of the on time group (95% CI =1.24-2.19); when APHV was used to evaluate pubertal timing, the risks of depressive symptoms in the early pubertal timing group and delayed group of boys were 1.43 times (95% CI =1.07-1.91) and 1.41 times (95% CI =1.05-1.88) of that of the on time group, respectively (all P <0.05). No statistically significant associations were found among females (all P > 0.05 ). Conclusion The prevalence of depressive symptoms among high school students in Suzhou is relatively high, and both early and delayed puberty timing in boys are associated with depressive symptoms.

Objective: To analyze the changes in classroom lighting environment of schools in Suzhou and their impact on refractive progression among primary and secondary school students, so as to provide the basis for accurate provention and control of myopia. Methods: A baseline investigation was conducted in October 2022 by using a stratified cluster random sampling method to recruit primary and secondary school students from Suzhou. A follow up visit was performed in October 2023. A total of 12 302 students and 360 classrooms that participated in both surveys were included analysis. The visual acuity progression over one year and classroom lighting conditions were assessed. Group comparisons were performed by using the Wilcoxon or Kruskal-Wallis rank-sum, and Chi-square tests. Multivariate Logistic regression was employed to identify the major factors influencing refractive changes. Results: The compliance rate of average illuminance on classroom blackboard surface increased from 72.22% to 75.28%, while the compliance rate of average illuminance on desks decreased from 89.44% to 87.22%, the overall myopia rate among students rose from 59.63% to 66.99% from 2022 to 2023. The average annual progression of equivalent spherical power(SE) in the right eye of students was -0.25(-0.75,0.06)D. Significant statistical differences were observed in the annual mean changes across different school levels, regions, baseline refractive statuses, and classroom lighting environment change groups ( Z/H =316.59, -8.27, 38.80 , 51.01, all P <0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that pre myopia, low myopia, junior high school, senior high school, vocational high school, and improved classroom lighting environment were protective factors of reducing the risk of rapid progression in refractive error ( OR =0.58, 0.69, 0.81, 0.50, 0.28, 0.82, all P <0.05). Conversely, female students and rural students had higher risks of rapid myopia progression ( OR =1.09, 1.42, both P <0.05). Conclusions Over one year follow up, the complance rate of classroom lighting indicators in Suzhou remaines stable, while students refractive status shows a trend toward myopia. Improving classroom lighting environment can reduce the risk of rapid myopia progression.

Objective To explore the effect of etomidate-propofol mixture anaesthesia in painless gastrointestinal endoscopy.Methods Eighty-two patients who underwent painless gastrointestinal endoscopy from September 2023 to November 2023 were divided into etomidate-propofol mixture group(observation group,n=41)and propofol group(control group,n=41)by using the random number table method.Morphine-benzedrine group(MBG)scores were recorded 30 min before the examination and before leaving the recovery room in both groups.Percutaneous arterial oxygen saturation(SpO2),heart rate(HR)and mean arterial pressure(MAP)were noted at anesthesia induction(T0),before entering the endoscope(T1),5 min after anesthesia induction(T2),and awakening(T3).Gastrointestinal endoscopy time,awakening time,recovery room stay time,total propofol consumption,and adverse reactions were also documented.Results MBG scores in both groups significantly increased before leaving the recovery room compared to 30 min before the examination,the observation group had lower MBG scores before leaving the recovery room in comparison with the control group,there were statistically significant(P＜0.05).From T1 to T3,MAP,SpO2,HR were higher in the observation group than those in the control group,there were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The observation group had shorter awakening time and recovery room stay time,there were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The observation group had lower total propofol consumption,there was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The observation group also exhibited a lower incidence of hypotension,hypoxemia,and injection pain,there were statistically significant(P＜0.05),with no statistically significant difference in the incidence of other adverse reactions(P＞0.05).Conclusion Etomidate-propofol combination anesthesia can reduce postoperative MBG scores in painless gastrointestinal endoscopy,contributing to a decreased risk of potential propofol addiction and abuse.Additionally,it stabilizes circulatory and respiratory functions,reduces adverse reactions rate,and shortens awakening time and recovery room stay time.Its application is worthy of further promotion.

With continuous discovery of tumor immune targets and continuous changes in antibody research and development technology, antibody drugs are becoming more and more widely used in clinical practice. However, some targets are not only expressed on tumor cells, but also on red blood cells. Therefore, the clinical application of antibodies against the corresponding targets may interfere with the detection of blood transfusion compatibility, resulting in difficulty in blood matching or delay of blood transfusion. This consensus summarizes the current solutions for the interference of CD38 monoclonal antibody (CD38 mAb) in transfusion compatibility testing. After analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of different methods, polybrene and sulfhydryl reducing agents [dithiothreitol (DTT) or 2-mercaptoethanol (2-Me)], as a solution for CD38 mAb interference in blood compatibility testing, are recommended for Chinese patients, so as to eliminate blood transfusion interference produce by CD38 mAb and further provide a pre-transfusion workflow for clinicians and technicians in Department of Blood Transfusion.

Objective To investigate the effects of negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) on the expression of EDA+ FN in granulation tissues of human diabetic foot wounds.Methods Forty patients with diabetic foot wounds fitting the inclusion criteria,admitted from Jan.2014 to Jun.2016,were randomly and equally apportioned to receive either NPWT or conventional gauze therapy (control) for 14 days.Granulated tissue biopsies were collected before (0 day) and after (14 day) treatment in both groups.All biopsies were subdivided into two parts.One part was preserved in 4％ paraformaldehyde for immunocytochemical staining of EDA+FN,and the other part was stored at-80 ℃ for Western blotting and PCR analysis of EDA+FN.Results The immunohistochemical analysis revealed that the mean area density of EDA+ FN increased in both NPWT group and control group at day 14 relative to day 0,but the change value of mean area density was higher in NPWT group than in control group (P＜0.01).Western blotting showed that the relative protein levels of EDA+FN increased in both NPWT group and control group at day 14 relative to day 0,but the change value of relative protein levels of EDA+FN was higher in NPWT group than in control group (P＜0.01).The real time PCR analysis demonstrated that the relative mRNA levels of EDA+ FN increased in both NPWT group and control group at day 14 relative to day 0,but the change value of relative mRNA levels of EDA+ FN was higher in NPWT group than in control group (P＜0.01).The results demonstrated the higher protein and mRNA levels of EDA+FN in NPWT group than that in control group.Conclusion NPWT obviously enhances EDA+FN expression in granulation tissue of diabetic foot wound,as a result promotes wound healing.

BACKGROUND:Compared with bone marrow and autologous peripheral blood stem cells, umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells are characterized as more primitive, more powerful amplification and lower immunogenicity, no ethical problems, which are more important to the elderly patients with diabetes mel itus. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells transplantation in the treatment of the elderly patients with diabetic lower limb vascular disease. METHODS:Fifty-six elderly patients with diabetic lower limb vascular disease were randomly divided into observation group and control group. The control group was treated with conventional therapy, while the observation group was treated with umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells transplantation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Observation group showed a higher efficiency than the control group, with significant difference (P<0.05). After treatment, foot skin temperature, transcutaneous oxygen pressure, and ankle brachial index were al improved in both two groups, and the ankle brachial index showed a better value in the observation group (P<0.05). There were no significant adverse reactions in the two groups. Umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells transplantation is a simple, safe and effective therapy for the elderly patients with diabetic lower limb vascular disease, with better short-term curative effect.

Objective To observe the protein and mRNA expression of LOX-1,eNOS and PPARγ in type 2 diabetic rat aorta,and to investigate the effect of rosiglitazone intervention.Methods Totally 80 Wistar rats (7-week-old male) were randomized into the control group,high fat diet group,diabetic group,and rosiglitazone treatment group (n=20 each).Type 2 diabetes model was developed by intraperitoneal injection with a low dose of streptozotocin,and rats in rosiglization treatment group were treated with rosiglitazone by intragastric administration.After treatment with rosiglitazone for 6 and 12 weeks,animals were sacrificed.Aorta were collected for detecting the protein and mRNA expressions of LOX-1,eNOS and PPARγ,and the differences in expression levels were compared among groups.Results After 6 and 12 weeks,the protein expressions of LOX-1 were up-regulated in diabetic group and rosiglitazone treatment group as compared with control group and high fat diet group (all P＜ 0.01).The protein expression of LOX-1 was down-regulated in rosiglitazone treatment group as compared with diabetic group (P ＜ 0.05).The aorta protein expressions of LOX-1 in high diet group,diabetes group and rosiglitazone treatment group were upregulated after 12 weeks as compared with 6 weeks (all P＜0.01).After 6 and 12 weeks,the aorta protein expressions of eNOS were down-regulated and PPARγ were up-regulated in high fat diet group,diabetic group and rosiglitazone treatment group as compared with control group (all P＜0.01)The aorta protein expression of eNOS was down-regulated and PPARγwas up-regulated in diabetes group as compared with high fat diet group and rosiglitazone treatment group (all P＜0.01).The aorta protein expressions of eNOS in diabetes group and rosiglitazone treatment group were downregulated after 12 weeks as compared with 6 weeks (all P＜0.01).After 6 and 12 weeks,the aorta mRNA expressions of LOX-1 and PPARγ were up-regulated,but the mRNA expressions of eNOS were down-regulated in high fat diet group,diabetes group and rosiglitazone treatment group as compared with control group (all P＜0.05).The aorta mRNA expressions of LOX-1 and PPARγ were up-regulated,but the mRNA expressions of eNOS were down-regulated in diabetes group and rosiglitazone treatment group as compared with high fat diet group (all P＜0.05).The aorta mRNA expressions of LOX-1 and PPARγ were down-regulated,but the mRNA expressions of eNOS were upregulated in rosiglitazone treatment group as compared to diabetic group (all P＜0.01).Conclusions Both hyperglycemia and hyper-lipoproteinemia can induce early coronary atherosclerosis in rats with the abnormal protein and mRNA expressions of LOX-1,eNOS and PPARγ in rat aorta,and the abnormal expressions are more obvious in hyperglycemia combined with hyperlipoproteinemia.Thiazolidinediones can reverse the above abnormal expressions in diabetic rats.

ObjectiveTo investigate the risk factors of metabolic syndrome ( MS ) in obese subjects.Methods A seven-year follow-up study was conducted in 413 simple obese subjects and 196 subjects with normal body weight who were recruited from community residents during physical examination in 2000.There was a 7 years follow-up.Anthropometrics,blood pressure,lipid profile,fasting blood glucose,and 2 h blood glucose after glucose loading were measured.Endothelium-dependent dilatation (EDD) test was also performed.Results Among 553 of 609 subjects who were followed up in 2007,there were 381 simple obese subjects ( simple obese group) and 172 normal weight subjects( normal weight group).Seven-year cumulative incidence of MS was 35.17％ in simple obese group and 8.14％ in normal weight group.In simple obese group,subjects with MS showed greater or higher levels of waist circumference( WC ),waist-hip ratio ( WHR ),triglyceride ( TG ),fasting plasma glucose ( FPG ),fasting insulin (FINS),and homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) (all P＜0.05 ),and also decreased EDD( P＜0.05 ) as compared with those without MS.WC,WHR,and FINS were higher( all P＜0.05 ) and EDD was lower( P＜0.05 ) in subjects with MS of normal weight group than those without MS.Logistic analysis showed that the male gender,WC,WHR,FPG,HOMA-IR,and EDD were major risk factors of MS.Conclusion Central obesity,insulin resistance,and endothelial dysfunction are important independent risk factors for development of MS.
