ObjectiveTo investigate the role of 4-week high-intensity interval training (HIIT) in modulating the metabolic homeostasis of the pyruvate-lactate axis in the hippocampus of rats with chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) to improve their depressive-like behavior. MethodsForty-eight SPF-grade 8-week-old male SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: the normal quiet group (C), the CUMS quiet group (M), the normal exercise group (HC), and the CUMS exercise group (HM). The M and HM groups received 8 weeks of CUMS modeling, while the HC and HM groups were exposed to 4 weeks of HIIT starting from the 5th week (3 min (85%-90%) S_max+1 min (50%-55%) S_max, 3-5 cycles, S_max is the maximum movement speed). A lactate analyzer was used to detect the blood lactate concentration in the quiet state of rats in the HC and HM groups at week 4 and in the 0, 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 h after exercise, as well as in the quiet state of rats in each group at week 8. Behavioral indexes such as sucrose preference rate, number of times of uprightness and number of traversing frames in the absenteeism experiment, and other behavioral indexes were used to assess the depressive-like behavior of the rats at week 4 and week 8. The rats were anesthetized on the next day after the behavioral test in week 8, and hippocampal tissues were taken for assay. LC-MS non-targeted metabolomics, target quantification, ELISA and Western blot were used to detect the changes in metabolite content, lactate and pyruvate concentration, the content of key metabolic enzymes in the pyruvate-lactate axis, and the protein expression levels of monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs). Results4-week HIIT intervention significantly increased the sucrose preference rate, the number of uprights and the number of traversed frames in the absent field experiment in CUMS rats; non-targeted metabolomics assay found that 21 metabolites were significantly changed in group M compared to group C, and 14 and 11 differential metabolites were significantly dialed back in the HC and HM groups, respectively, after the 4-week HIIT intervention; the quantitative results of the targeting showed that, compared to group C, lactate concentration in the hippocampal tissues of M group, compared with group C, lactate concentration in hippocampal tissue was significantly reduced and pyruvate concentration was significantly increased, and 4-week HIIT intervention significantly increased the concentration of lactate and pyruvate in hippocampal tissue of HM group; the trend of changes in blood lactate concentration was consistent with the change in lactate concentration in hippocampal tissue; compared with group C, the LDHB content of group M was significantly increased, the content of PKM2 and PDH, as well as the protein expression level of MCT2 and MCT4 were significantly reduced. The 4-week HIIT intervention upregulated the PKM2 and PDH content as well as the protein expression levels of MCT2 and MCT4 in the HM group. ConclusionThe 4-week HIIT intervention upregulated blood lactate concentration and PKM2 and PDH metabolizing enzymes in hippocampal tissues of CUMS rats, and upregulated the expression of MCT2 and MCT4 transport carrier proteins to promote central lactate uptake and utilization, which regulated metabolic homeostasis of the pyruvate-lactate axis and improved depressive-like behaviors.

Objective: To explore the prevalence of screening myopia and depressive symptom among primary and secondary school students in Xuzhou, and to explore the association of sleep and screen time on the coexistence of screening myopia and depressive symptom, so as to provide scientific references for developing intervention strategies to address the development of myopia and promote mental health in children and adolescents. Methods: From September to October 2024, a stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select 6 605 students in grade 4 to 12 in 2 urban and 2 suburban districts in Xuzhou. The students health condition and influencing factors questionnaire were used to assess students basic information, sleep time, and screen time. The Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) was used to assess primary and secondary school students depressive symptom.Unaided distance visual acuity examination was conducted, and refractive assessment was performed using an automated refractometer without cycloplegic agents. The Chi-square test and multiple Logistic regression analysis were used to evaluate the association of sleep and screen time with the coexistence of screening myopia and depressive symptom. Results: The detection rates of screening myopia, depressive symptom, and screening myopia and depressive symptoms co morbidity among primary and secondary school students in Xuzhou were 60.35%, 4.45% and 18.61% respectively. Results from the multinomial Logistic regression analysis, using the healthy group as the reference and after adjusting for confounding factors, showed that students with insufficient sleep duration were more likely to have depressive symptom ( OR=1.57, 95%CI =1.08-2.27) and the coexistence of screening myopia and depressive symptom ( OR=1.85, 95%CI =1.45-2.36). Students with daily screen time≥2 h were more likely to have depressive symptom only ( OR=1.41, 95%CI =1.04-1.93) and the coexistence of screening myopia and depressive symptom ( OR=1.31, 95%CI =1.06-1.61). Further stratified analysis based on sufficient and insufficient sleep duration revealed that only in the insufficient sleep duration group, students with daily screen time≥2 h had an increased risk of depressive symptom only ( OR=1.49, 95%CI =1.07-2.07) and the coexistence of screening positive myopia and depressive symptom ( OR=1.40, 95%CI =1.11- 1.77 ) (all P <0.05). Conclusions Primary and secondary school students with insufficient sleep duration and daily screen time≥2 h have higher risks of depressive symptoms and the coexistence of screening myopia and depressive symptoms. It is recommended to ensure adequate sleep duration and limit screen time for children and adolescents.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness of motor imagery training (MIT) on knee function, kinesiophobia, and functional exercise compliance in patients after knee replacement.Methods:From June 2022 to August 2023, convenience sampling was used to select patients who underwent knee replacement and were admitted to the Fourth Clinical College of Xinxiang Medical University as participants. The patients were divided into control group ( n=98 cases) and observation group ( n=98 cases) according to their enrollment time. The control group received routine postoperative rehabilitation, while the observation group was treated with MIT in addition to the control group. The knee function, kinesiophobia, and functional exercise compliance of two groups of patients were compared before and after intervention. Results:After intervention, in observation group, the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index score was lower than that in control group, the score of Hospital for Special Surgery was higher than that in control group, the Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia score was lower than that in control group, and the compliance with functional exercise was higher than that in control group, with statistical differences ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Applying MIT on the basis of rehabilitation training can alleviate the kinesiophobia in patients after knee replacement, improve their exercise compliance and knee function.

Objective:To analyze the effect of recombinant human thrombopoietin(rhTPO)on platelet(PLT)reconstitution after autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation(APBSCT)in patients with multiple myeloma(MM).Methods:The clinical data of 147 MM patients who were diagnosed in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University and received APBSCT as the first-line therapy were retrospectively analyzed.According to whether rhTPO was used during APBSCT,the patients were divided into rhTPO group(80 cases)and control group(67 cases).The time of PLT engraftment,blood product infusion requirements,the proportion of patients with PLT recovery to ≥ 50 × 109/L and ≥ 100 × 109/L at+14 days and+100 days after transplantation,and adverse reactions including the incidence of bleeding were compared between the two groups.Results:There were no significant differences between the two groups in sex,age,M protein type,PLT count at the initial diagnosis,median duration of induction therapy before APBSCT,and number of CD34+cells reinfused(all P＞0.05).The median time of PLT engraftment in the rhTPO group was 10(6-14)days,which was shorter than 11(8-23)days in the control group(P＜0.001).The median PLT transfusion requirement in the rhTPO group during APBSCT was 15(0-50)U,which was less than 20(0-80)U in the control group(P=0.001).At+14 days after transplantation,the proportions of patients with PLT 2 50 × 109/L in the rhTPO group and the control group were 66.3％and 52.2％,while the proportions of patients with PLT ≥ 100 × 109/L were 23.8％and 11.9％,respectively,with no significant differences(all P＞0.05).At+100 days after transplantation,the proportion of patients with PLT ≥ 50 × 109/L in rhTPO group and control group was 96.3％and 89.6％,respectively(P＞0.05),but the proportion of patients with PLT ≥ 100 × 109/L in rhTPO group was higher than that in control group(75.0％vs 55.2％,P=0.012).There was no difference in the overall incidence of bleeding events in different locations during period of low PLT level of patients between the two groups.In rhTPO group,the rhTPO administration was well tolerated,and the incidences of abnormal liver and kidney function and infection were similar to those in the control group.Conclusion:When MM patients undergo first-line APBSCT,subcutaneous injection of rhTPO can shorten the time of platelet engraftment,reduce the transfusion volume of blood products,and be well tolerated,moreover,more patients have achieve a high level of PLT recovery after transplantation,which is very important for ensuring the safety of APBSCT and maintenance therapy.

Objective:To observe and analyze the clinical characteristics of children with autosomal dominant hereditary microcephaly with or without chorioretinopathy, lymphedema, or intellectual disability syndrome (MCLMR).Methods:A retrospective clinical study. In September 2023, the first patient and three family members (parents, brother) of MCLMR who were diagnosed through ophthalmic examination and genetic testing at Department of Ophthalmology of Henan Children's Hospital were included in the study. Clinical data were collected, inquired about medical history and family history in detail, and performed best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), optical coherence tomography (OCT), fluorescein angiography (FFA), flash visual evoked potential (F-VEP), full field electroretinogram (ERG), cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and systemic examination. 3 ml of peripheral venous blood were collected from the proband, her parents and younger brother, and extracted whole genome DNA. Second generation sequencing technology was used for gene sequencing. For suspected pathogenic sites, Sanger sequencing was used for validation, and bioinformatics analysis was performed to determine the pathogenicity of the genetic variant sites. The relevant literature of PubMed of the National Library of Medicine and Wan Fang Med Online by computer were searched. The genetic characteristics and conducted literature review were summarized.Results:The proband (Ⅱ-1) was an 8-year-old and 5-month-old female. Her head was relatively small, the lower jaw was small, the ears protrude, the nose was wide, the eyelid was tilted upwards, philtrum was long. Mild intellectual disability, no history of lymphedema. The BCVA values for the right and left eyes were 0.08 and 0.1, respectively. Bilateral nystagmus. Atrophic lesioned in the macular area and below choroid retina of both eyes. FFA examination showed mottled fluorescent staining in the macular area and the below retina, with no obvious fluorescein leakage in the late stage. OCT examination revealed shallow macular fovea morphology, absence of ellipsoidal bands, unclear layers, thinning of the entire retina, and significant atrophy of the choroid and retina beneath the macula. F-VEP examination, no waveform was detected in both eyes. Full field ERG examination showed severe reduction in amplitude of a wave and b wave in both eyes. Head magnetic resonance imaging showed widening of the subarachnoid space in the left temporal region, with no significant abnormal signals observed in the brain parenchyma. Her father (Ⅰ-1) had mild nystagmus and strabismus. The phenotypes of the eyes of the mother (Ⅰ-2) and brother (Ⅱ-2) were not significantly abnormal. The genetic testing results showed that the proband (Ⅱ-1) had a heterozygous missense mutation c.895A>G (p.Ile299Val) in exon 8 of the KIF11 gene, which was a known mutation. Her parents (Ⅰ-1, Ⅰ-2) and younger brother (Ⅱ-2) were both wild-type. The bioinformatics analysis results indicated that this mutation is a potentially pathogenic variant. A total of 109 cases were retrieved from 20 relevant literatures. Among them, 55 were male, 54 were females. There were 61 cases with family history and 48 cases without family history, respectively. Among the 109 cases, 98 cases (89.9%, 98/109) had microcephaly, 2 cases had premature closure of cranial sutures, and 11 patients underwent cranial MRI, which showed 11 cases of small head with simplified development of the cerebral gyrus. 50 cases (45.9%, 50/109) of lymphedema. 83 cases (76.1%, 83/109) of intellectual developmental disorders. 92 cases (84.4%, 92/109) had ocular abnormalities, 69 cases (63.3%, 69/109) had chorioretinopathy, 20 cases (18.3%, 20/109) had retinal folds, 10 cases (9.2%, 10/109) had nystagmus, and 17 cases (15.6%, 17/109) had retinal detachment. Conclusions:The main clinical manifestations of MCLMR are microcephaly, chorioretinopathy, with or without lymphedema, and intellectual disability. The main manifestations of eye diseases are low vision, nystagmus, and chorioretinopathy. The heterozygous missense mutation c.895A>G (p.Ile299Val) in exon 8 of KIF11 gene is the pathogenic variant of this family.

In recent years， the incidence and mortality rates of cancer have been increasing， posing a serious threat to human health. Western medicine mainly uses treatments such as surgical resection， chemotherapy， immunotherapy and targeted therapy， but they are prone to complications， drug resistance and adverse reactions. A growing number of studies have shown that traditional Chinese medicine has obvious advantages in the treatment of cancer， reducing the recurrence rate of cancer and improving the quality of survival of patients. Cellular senescence refers to a state of irreversible cell cycle growth arrest when cells cease to proliferate after a limited number of divisions， resulting in a decline in cell proliferation and differentiation capacities and physiological functions， accompanied by morphological changes such as flattening and multinuclear morphology. At the molecular level， it shows increased expression of DNA damage-related genes， reduced expression of cell cycle-related factors and significant secretory activity. The malignant development of cancer is closely related to cellular senescence. With the increasing number of cancer cell proliferation， cancer-related genes undergo continuous mutations， freeing them from cellular senescence and thus achieving unlimited proliferation. Through recent studies， it has been found that induction of tumor cell senescence， possibly through modulation of cellular DNA damage， cell cycle arrest and senescence-associated secretory phenotype （SASP）， which converts the suppressive immune tumor microenvironment to an activated immune tumor microenvironment and thus reverses the escape of tumor cell senescence， is a promising strategy for cancer therapy. However， the mechanism of cellular senescence in cancer progression is not fully understood， especially the anti-cancer role played by traditional Chinese medicine in regulating cellular senescence. This article summarized and concluded the specific molecular mechanisms of cellular senescence， the role of cellular senescence in cancer progression， and the mechanism of anti-cancer effects of traditional Chinese medicine based on cellular senescence from the perspective of regulating cellular senescence， with a view to providing ideas and methods for the anti-cancer effects of traditional Chinese medicine and the development of new drugs.
