Objective:
To explore the relationship between school sports environment and physical activity levels of middle school students, so as to provide theoretical and empirical support for optimizing school sports environment and enhance adolescent physical activity.
Methods:
Using multi-stage random cluster sampling, from September to December 2023, 1 329 junior and senior high school students from Xuancheng City of Anhui Province, Lianyungang City of Jiangsu Province, Wuhan City of Hubei Province, Qiqihar City and Suihua City of Heilongjiang Province, and Shenzhen City of Guangdong Province were selected. The International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF) assessed students physical activity levels, and the questionnaire on the characteristics of school sports environment was developed to evaluate the factors of school sports environment. Multivariate ordered Logistic regression was performed to analyze the correlation between school sports environment factors and physical activity levels, and the analytic hierarchy process determined the weight of key influencing factors.
Results:
The results showed that weekly vigorous physical activity time was [60 (25, 90)] minutes, moderate physical activity time was [60 (30, 90)] minutes, light physical activity time was [105 (40, 200)] minutes, and sedentary behavior time was [ 3 300 (2 100, 4 500)] minutes, only 10.53% of the students met World Health Organization physical activity recommendations, and 89.69% of the students averaged >8 h daily sedentary time. Multivariate ordered Logistic regression showed that adequate sports equipment significantly promoted physical activity across all intensities and reduced sedentary time ( OR = 4.97, 11.54, 4.03, 0.11); diverse sports activities improved vigorous and moderate physical activity while reducing sedentary time ( OR =4.20, 14.06, 0.17); and peer encouragement was associated with increased low-intensity physical activities and decreased sedentary time ( OR =10.40, 0.15)( P <0.05). The analytic hierarchy process weighting analysis identified the top three influential factors related to physical activity among middle school students: sufficient sports equipment, varied physical education activities, frequent peer encouragement, the influence weight accounts for 23.55% , 14.18% and 11.77% of the total, respectively.
Conclusion
Key school sports environmental factors for adolescent physical activity level include ensuring adequate sports equipment and class availability, diversifying activity content, fostering peer support, and cultivating an active sports culture and a comprehensive approach encourage students participation in extracurricular physical activities.

OBJECTIVE To conduct a reevaluation of the systematic review (SR)/meta-analysis on the use of Xianling gubao capsules (XLGBC) for knee osteoarthritis (KOA), and provide evidence-based support for the clinical use of the drugs. METHODS Computerized searches including CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, China Biomedical Literature Database, the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase and Web of Science were conducted to collect systematic reviews (SR) or meta-analyses of XLGBC for the treatment of KOA from the inception to May 31st, 2024. The report quality, methodological quality, risk of bias and evidence quality were assessed using the PRISMA 2020 statement, AMSTAR 2 scale, ROBIS tool and GRADE tool, respectively. A comprehensive quality analysis of the quantitative results from the SR/meta-analysis was also performed. RESULTS A total of five SR/meta-analyses were included. The evaluation results based on the PRISMA 2020 statement showed that one study report was relatively complete (21 points), while four studies had deficiencies (18-20 points). The assessment using the AMSTAR 2 scale indicated that the methodological quality of all five studies was rated as very low. According to the ROBIS tool evaluation, the risk of comprehensive bias in all five studies was classified as high. GRADE tool evaluation revealed that among 49 outcome indicators, 5 (10.2%) were rated as moderate-quality evidence (10.2%), 12 as low-quality evidence (24.5%), and 32 as very low-quality evidence (65.3%). The results of comprehensive quality analysis showed that the clinical efficacy, visual analogue scale score, pain relief time, comprehensive indexes of knee joint function, the levels of inflammatory factors and the incidence of adverse events in patients with XLGBC combined with conventional treatment were significantly better than conventional treatment alone (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Compared with conventional treatment, XLGBC in combination with conventional treatment for KOA may have some efficacy and safety advantages. However, due to the low quality of evidence for the outcome indicators included in the studies, the conclusions should be interpreted with caution.

ObjectiveTo explore whether fluoroethylnormemantine (FENM), an NMDA receptor antagonist, could improve compulsive-like behaviors and to investigate its underlying mechanisms in the RU24969-induced obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) mouse model. MethodsThirty-two mice were randomly assigned to four groups: Saline (n=8), RU24969 (n=8), RU+FENM (n=8), and FENM (n=8). Mice received FENM or an equivalent volume of saline for pre-treatment, followed by RU24969 or saline for model induction 30 minutes later. Behavioral tests were performed 1 hour after modeling, and serum samples were collected to measure the level of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). Evans Blue dye was intravenously injected to assess dye content in brain tissue, thereby evaluating potential blood-brain barrier damage. ResultsFENM treatment significantly improved repetitive stereotyped circling behavior (F=39.850, P<0.001) and alleviated persistent motor activity (F=50.200, P<0.001) in RU24969 model mice. Additionally, FENM treatment significantly increased serum BDNF level in RU24969-induced OCD mice (F=18.930, P<0.001). ConclusionsFENM , an NMDA receptor antagonist, may alleviate compulsive behaviors in OCD mice by modulating BDNF levels , thereby exerting anti-compulsive effects. Neither the RU24969 model nor FENM treatment significantly affectes blood-brain barrier integrity.

Objective To investigate the factors influencing international normalized ratio (INR)>3.0 in patients undergoing warfarin anticoagulation therapy after mechanical heart valve replacement. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of patients who underwent mechanical heart valve replacement surgery and received warfarin anticoagulation therapy at West China Hospital of Sichuan University from January 1, 2011 to June 30, 2022. Based on the discharge INR values, patients were divided into two groups: an INR≤3.0 group and an INR>3.0 group. The factors associated with INR>3.0 at the time of discharge were analyzed. Results A total of 8901 patients were enrolled, including 3409 males and 5492 females, with a median age of 49.3 (43.5, 55.6) years. The gender, body mass index (BMI), New York Heart Association (NYHA) cardiac function grading, INR, glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, and preoperative prothrombin time (PT) were statistically different between the two groups (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that lower BMI, preoperative PT>15 s, and mitral valve replacement were independent risk factors for INR>3.0 at discharge (P<0.05). Conclusion BMI, preoperative PT, and surgical site are factors influencing INR>3.0 at discharge in patients undergoing warfarin anticoagulation therapy after mechanical heart valve replacement. Special attention should be given to patients with lower BMI, longer preoperative PT, and mitral valve replacement to avoid excessive anticoagulation therapy.

Objective:To investigate the correlation of relative cross-sectional area of lumbar paravertebral muscle and psoas with lumbar curvature and its clinical significance.Methods:This study was conducted as a retrospective cross-sectional study. Among the patients treated at the Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, Shuguang Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January to April 2023, 107 middle-aged and young patients with changes in lumbar physiological curvature or no apparent abnormalities were included in this study based on MRI findings. The relative cross-sectional area (RCSA) values of the left and right paravertebral muscles and psoas were measured at the lower margin of the L3 vertebral body and at the L3/L4, L4/L5, and L5/S1 intervertebral discs. Furthermore, the correlation between these RCSA values and lumbar curvature was analyzed.Results:The 107 patients were (30.51 ± 4.64) years old, and the proportion of females accounted for 71.96%. There were differences in RCSA between the lower margin of L3, L3/L4, L4/L5, and L5/S1 intervertebral discs (left psoas F = 30.21, P < 0.001; right psoas F = 31.63, P < 0.001; left paravertebral muscle F = 31.04, P < 0.001; right paravertebral muscle F = 26.55, P < 0.001). From L3 to S1, the RCSA of the psoas increased, while the RCSA of the paravertebral muscle decreased. The RCSA values of the total paravertebral muscle/RCSA values of the total psoas major muscle were positively correlated with lumbar curvature at the lower margin of the L3 vertebral body ( r = 0.40, P < 0.001). This correlation could be seen at both L3/L4 ( r = 0.31, P = 0.001) and L4/L5 ( r = 0.24, P = 0.012). However, after considering the influence of left and right muscle groups on lumbar curvature, there was no correlation between the muscle cross-sectional area at the L5/S1 disc position and lumbar curvature ( P > 0.05). Nevertheless, there was still a correlation between the muscle cross-sectional area at other lumbar segments ( P < 0.05). Conclusion:An increase in the RCSA of the psoas relative to the paraspinal muscle may lead to straightening of the lumbar spine curvature, whereas an increase in the RCSA of the paraspinal muscle relative to the psoas may result in an increase in lumbar spine curvature. Improving the quality of the paraspinal muscle may restore the physiological curvature of the lumbar spine, which holds clinical application value.

Objective:To observe the effects of ointment and massage on inflammation, oxidative stress and angiogenesis after skeletal muscle trauma, and to explore their mechanisms.Methods:Forty-two adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a blank group ( n=6), an ointment and massage (O&M) group ( n=18) and a model group ( n=18). The blunt contusion model of gastrocnemius malformation was established in both the O&M and model groups using self-made percussion instruments. Two hours after successful modeling, the anti-inflammatory pain-relieving cream was applied to the injured area, and massaged evenly and gently for 5 minutes. That was repeated with an interval of 12 hours. No treatment was given to the model and blank groups. On the 1st, 3rd and 7th days after modeling, injured gastrocnemius muscles were resected after collecting abdominal blood. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and immunofluorescent (CD34) staining were applied, and serum superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) contents were detected. Results:HE staining showed that at each time point the gastrocnemius muscle fibers of the model group were significantly more swollen and deformed, collapsed and dissolved than those of the blank group, with a large number of inflamed cells. The O&M group had better recovery, with more newly-generated muscle cells, less inflammatory infiltration and more normal cell shapes than the model group. Fluorescence was stronger in the O&M and model groups than in the blank group at each time point, with that of the O&M group significantly stronger than in the model group. The average SOD and MDA levels in the model and O&M groups were significantly higher than in the blank group, and on the 1st and 3rd days the O&M group′s average SOD level was significantly higher than the model group′s average, though by the 7th day there was no significant difference. The average MDA content of the O&M group was significantly lower than the model group′s average at each time point.Conclusion:Ointment and massage can effectively reduce the local inflammatory response and oxidative stress after a skeletal muscle injury. They can accelerate local angiogenesis, promoting the repair of damaged tissues.

Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a common degenerative joint disease characterized primarily by the degeneration and damage of knee joint cartilage, accompanied by osteophyte formation and inflammation. In recent years, the prevalence of KOA has been increasing globally, significantly impacting the quality of life patients. However, the pathogenesis of KOA remains not fully understood, and current treatment methods are limited. Therefore, finding new therapeutic strategies is a research hotspot. Previous studies have found that the onset of KOA is related to abnormal mitochondrial regulation. Mitochondria, functioning as secondary messengers, play crucial roles in cellular respiration, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production through oxidative phosphorylation. Mitochondrial quality control is a pivotal mechanism for maintaining the morphology, quantity, and quality of mitochondria. The connection between mitochondrial quality control and the pathogenesis of KOA involves several factors, such as mitochondrial oxidative stress, mitophagy, imbalances in mitochondrial biogenesis, abnormal mitochondrial dynamics (fission and fusion), and dysregulation of calcium ions. Metabolic abnormalities in the body lead to mitochondrial structural damage, which in turn contributes to the onset and progression of KOA. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has made some progress in intervening in mitochondrial quality control, employing multi-faceted, multi-pathway, and multi-target strategies to treat KOA. Several studies have shown that mitochondrial quality control may be one of the therapeutic targets of TCM in treating KOA. However, there is currently a lack of comprehensive reviews summarizing the TCM interventions in mitochondrial quality control for treating KOA. This paper systematically reviewed the research progress in TCM treatment of KOA based on five aspects of mitochondrial quality control, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the clinical prevention and treatment of KOA.

BACKGROUND:Based on different algorithms of machine learning,how to carry out clinical research on lumbar disc herniation with the help of various algorithmic models has become a trend and hot spot in the development of intelligent medicine at present. OBJECTIVE:To review the characteristics of different algorithmic models of machine learning in the diagnosis and treatment of lumbar disc herniation,and summarize the respective advantages and application strategies of algorithmic models for the same purpose. METHODS:The computer searched PubMed,Web of Science,EMBASE,CNKI,WanFang,VIP and China Biomedical(CBM)databases to extract the relevant articles on machine learning in the diagnosis and treatment of lumbar disc herniation.Finally,96 articles were included for analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Different algorithm models of machine learning provide intelligent and accurate application strategies for clinical diagnosis and treatment of lumbar disc herniation.(2)Traditional statistical methods and decision trees in supervised learning are simple and efficient in exploring risk factors and establishing diagnostic and prognostic models.Support vector machine is suitable for small data sets with high-dimensional features.As a nonlinear classifier,it can be applied to the recognition,segmentation and classification of normal or degenerative intervertebral discs,and to establish diagnostic and prognostic models.Ensemble learning can make up for the shortcomings of a single model.It has the ability to deal with high-dimensional data and improve the precision and accuracy of clinical prediction models.Artificial neural network improves the learning ability of the model,and can be applied to intervertebral disc recognition,classification and making clinical prediction models.On the basis of the above uses,deep learning can also optimize images and assist surgical operations.It is the most widely used model with the best performance in the diagnosis and treatment of lumbar disc herniation.The clustering algorithm in unsupervised learning is mainly used for disc segmentation and classification of different herniated segments.However,the clinical application of semi-supervised learning is relatively less.(3)At present,machine learning has certain clinical advantages in the identification and segmentation of lumbar intervertebral discs,classification and grading of the degenerative intervertebral discs,automatic clinical diagnosis and classification,construction of the clinical predictive model and auxiliary operation.(4)In recent years,the research strategy of machine learning has changed to the neural network and deep learning,and the deep learning algorithm with stronger learning ability will be the key to realizing intelligent medical treatment in the future.
