Objective: To investigate the effects of 24 hour movement behaviors on the self confidence level of junior high school students, providing empirical evidence for optimizing physical activity intervention strategies and enhancing adolescents mental health. Methods: In December 2024, a stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select 350 students from 3 junior high schools in Wuhan City. The ActiGraph wGT3X-BT accelerometer was employed to monitor participants 24 hour movement behaviors, and the Children and Adolescents Self confidence Questionnaire was used to assess their self confidence levels. Compositional isotemporal substitution models were applied to analyze the substitution effects among different movement behaviors and their impact on the self confidence level of junior high school students. Results: Among the 24 hour movement behaviors of junior high school students, the compositional means and proportions of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA), light physical activity (LPA), sedentary behavior (SB), and sleep (SP) were 33.91 min (2.35%), 151.64 min (10.53%), 761.12 min (52.86%), and 493.33 min (34.26%), respectively. There were no statistically significant differences were found across grade, parental education level, or family economic status ( t/F =0.62,1.50,-1.22, all P >0.05). Significant differences in self confidence levels were observed between male and female junior high students ( t=3.36, P <0.05). Regarding 24 hour movement behaviors, MVPA, LPA, SB and SP exhibited statistically significant differences across gender, grade, and parental education ( Z/H =-6.76-6.15, all P < 0.05 ). Results of component linear regression analysis indicated that the proportion of MVPA time positively predicted junior high school students self confidence levels ( β =4.38), while the proportion of SP time negatively predicted self confidence levels ( β = -11.20 ) (both P <0.05). Isotemporal substitution analysis revealed that replacing 15 minutes of SB and SP with MVPA increased total self confidence scores by 1.53 and 1.97 units, respectively, while the opposite substitution decreased scores by 2.48 and 2.91 units (all P <0.05). Dose response analysis revealed an asymmetric pattern in the isochronous substitution effects between MVPA and SB/SP. Conclusions The overall distribution of 24 hour movement behaviors significantly impacts self confidence level of junior high school students. Insufficient MVPA may constrain the positive development of self confidence.

OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy and safety of vedolizumab （VDZ） versus infliximab （IFX） in biologic-naive（Bio-naive） patients with moderate-to-severe active ulcerative colitis （UC）， and to analyze the factors influencing efficacy. METHODS Clinical data were retrospectively collected from Bio-naive patients with moderate-to-severe active UC who received treatment in the Department of Gastroenterology at Shanxi Provincial People’s Hospital from June 2023 to June 2024. Based on the type of biologic agent administered， the patients were divided into the IFX group （41 cases） and the VDZ group （30 cases）. Patients in the two groups received IFX （5 mg/kg） or VDZ （300 mg） for induction and maintenance of remission therapy. The two groups were compared regarding modified Mayo score， serological indicators （hemoglobin， albumin， platelet count， erythrocyte sedimentation rate， C-reactive protein）， combined medication， efficacy-related indexes （clinical response rate/remission rate， and endoscopic response rate/remission rate）， and the occurrence of adverse drug reactions （ADR）. Based on Logistic regression model， univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to identify potential factors influencing clinical remission at week 14 and endoscopic remission at week 38. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences in clinical response rate/remission rate， or endoscopic response rate/remission rate between the two groups at weeks 14 and 38 （ P ＞0.05）. However， at week 14 of treatment， the proportion of patients using concomitant corticosteroids in VDZ group was 26.67%， significantly higher than the 7.50% in IFX group （ P ＜0.05）. There was no statistical significance in the overall incidence of ADR between the two groups （ P ＞0.05）； all ADRs in the IFX group were grade 3 and led to treatment discontinuation （6 cases）， whereas ADR in the VDZ group was grade 2 and did not interrupt therapy （1 case）. Univariate and multivariate regression analyses revealed that disease type （relapsing） was significantly associated with clinical remission at week 14 of treatment， and a history of smoking was significantly associated with endoscopic remission at week 38 of treatment （the odds ratios were 0.08 for both， with 95% confidence intervals of 0.01-0.77 and 0.01-0.91 respectively， P ＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS For Bio-naive patients with moderate-to-severe active UC， VDZ and IFX demonstrate comparable efficacy in inducing and maintaining clinical remission and promoting mucosal healing， as well as overall safety. Although IFX can achieve faster control of inflammation in the early stage of the disease， it causes more severe ADR. Disease type （relapsing） and smoking history are identified as independent negative predictors for short-term clinical remission and long-term endoscopic remission， respectively.

Objective: To assess the status of sexual behaviors, HIV/AIDS knowledge awareness, and novel synthetic drug use among school attending young students in Guangdong Province, so as to provide evidence base for formulating targeted intervention strategies. Methods: From September to December 2024, a convenience sampling method was employed to conduct an anonymous online survey among 41 119 students from 20 higher education institutions and vocational colleges in Guangdong Province. Chi square test was utilized for rate comparisons and univariate analysis, and a multivariate Logistic regression model was applied to analyze factors associated with novel synthetic drug use. Results: The self reported rate of sexual behavior was 5.2%. Among sexually active students, the rates of unprotected sexual intercourse, having temporary sexual partners, and having commercial sexual partners were 32.4%, 34.5%, and 26.3%, respectively. The awareness rate of HIV related knowledge was 75.7%. The overall use rate of novel psychoactive substances(NPS) was 1.0%, and among sexually active students it was 6.5%. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that students with sexual experience ( OR =4.15) and those with HIV testing history ( OR =9.38) had higher risks of NPS use; among sexually active students, those with unprotected sexual intercourse ( OR =6.83) and those with commercial sexual partners ( OR = 4.68 ) had higher risks of NPS use (all P <0.05). Conclusions The HIV/AIDS knowledge level among surveyed students needs further improvement, and high risk sexual behaviors are cross linked with novel synthetic drug use. It is recommended to carry out integrated health education for all students and implement comprehensive targeted interventions for sexually active students.

Medical artificial intelligence （AI） is a new type of application formed by the combination of machine learning， computer vision， natural language processing， and other technologies with clinical medical treatment. With the continuous iteration and development of relevant technologies， medical AI has shown great potential in improving the efficiency of diagnosis and treatment， and service quality， but it also increases the possibility of triggering ethical issues. Ethical issues resulting from the clinical application of medical AI were analyzed， including the lack of algorithmic interpretability and transparency of medical AI， leading to information asymmetry and cognitive discrepancies； the concerning status of security and privacy protection of medical data； and the complex and unclear division of responsibilities due to the collaborative participation of multiple subjects in the clinical application of medical AI， resulting in increased difficulty in the identification of medical accidents and clarification of responsibilities. The paper proposed the principles of not harming patients’ interests， physician’s subjectivity， fairness and inclusiveness， and rapid response. It also explored the strategies and implementation paths for responding to the ethical issues of medical AI from multiple perspectives， including standardizing the environment and processes， clarifying responsibility attribution， continuously assessing the impact of data protection， guaranteeing data security， ensuring model transparency and interpretability， carrying out multi-subject collaboration， as well as the principles of being driven by ethical values and adhering to the “human health-centeredness.” It aimed to provide guidance for the healthy development of medical AI， ensuring technological progress while effectively managing and mitigating accompanying ethical risks， thereby promoting the benign development of medical AI technology and better serving the healthcare industry and patients.

Objective:To investigate differentially expressed lipid molecules and their associated metabolic pathways in lung tissue using lipidomic analysis in a rat model of acute lung injury (ALI).Methods:An ALI rat model was established via intratracheal instillation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Twenty rats were randomly allocated into an ALI group and a control group ( n = 10 per group). The left lung was subjected to histopathological evaluation, while the right lung underwent untargeted lipidomics analysis. Ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) was employed for lipid profiling. Principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) were performed to assess intergroup differences and determine variable importance in projection (VIP) scores. Differential lipids were screened based on VIP and fold change.Lipid identification and metabolic pathway analysis were conducted using MetaboAnalyst 5.0 and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) database. Results:Among 1 022 detected lipid molecules, 47 were differentially expressed (VIP > 1, FC > 2.0 or < 0.5, P< 0.05). Subsequent analysis identified 12 structurally annotated lipids ( P < 0.05), predominantly enriched in glycerophospholipid metabolism, linoleic acid metabolism, and α-linolenic acid metabolism pathways. Notably, phosphatidylcholines (PCs) and lysophosphatidylcholines (LPCs) exhibited significant alterations in the ALI group. Conclusions:The ALI model demonstrated substantial dysregulation of lipid metabolism, particularly involving PCs and LPCs, with prominent perturbations in glycerophospholipid metabolism. This provides a scienctific basis for indepth research on the pathogenesis mechanism of ALI/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) .

OBJECTIVE To explore the effects of Tianma xiongling zhixuan tablet on autophagy in vascular endothelial cells of rats and its potential mechanism. METHODS The rat aortic endothelial cells （RAECs） were divided into normal group， model group， blank serum group， traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） medicated serum group， autophagy blocker group， autophagy agonist group， and TCM combined with autophagy agonist group. Except for normal group， other groups were given 10 μg/mL lipopolysaccharide for 24 hours to induce RAECs inflammation injury model. Blank serum group was treated with 10% blank serum； TCM medicated serum group received 10% medicated serum derived from Tianma xiongling zhixuan tablet； autophagy blocker group was treated with 20 μmol/L of PD98059； autophagy agonist group was administered 50 μmol/L Honokiol. Lastly， the TCM combined with autophagy agonist group was given both 10% medicated serum derived from Tianma xiongling zhixuan tablet and 50 μmol/L Honokiol. The morphological characteristics of RAECs in each group were observed. The cell viability of each group， the contents of endothelin-1 （ET-1） and nitric oxide （NO）， mitochondrial reactive oxygen species， mitochondrial membrane potential， and the expression levels of PTEN-induced kinase 1 （PINK1）， Parkin， ubiquitin-binding protein （p62）， and microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 （LC3） were detected. RESULTS Compared with model group， the levels of ET-1， mitochondrial reactive oxygen species， and the relative expressions of PINK1， Parkin， and LC3 proteins in the autophagy blocker group and TCM medicated serum group were decreased or down-regulated significantly （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）； the cell viability rate （only autophagy blocker group）， NO level， mitochondrial membrane potential， and the E-mail：46164660@qq.com relative expression level of p62 protein were increased or up-regulated significantly （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）； the pathological damage of RAECs was significantly improved， the number of cells increased significantly， and the typical paving stone-like characteristics were restored. The levels of ET-1， mitochondrial reactive oxygen species， and the relative expression levels of Parkin and LC3 proteins in the autophagy agonist group were increased or up-regulated significantly （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）， while cell viability rate was decreased significantly （P＜0.05）， the damage of RAECs was aggravated. Compared with the autophagy agonist group， the cell viability rate and the relative expression level of p62 protein in TCM combined autophagy agonist group were increased or up-regulated significantly （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）， while the levels of ET-1， the relative expression levels of PINK1， Parkin， and LC3 proteins were down-regulated significantly （P＜ 0.01）， the damage of RAECs was reversed to a certain extent. CONCLUSIONS Tianma xiongling zhixuan tablet protects vascular endothelial function by regulating mitochondrial autophagy， the mechanism of which may be associated with the regulation of PINK1/Parkin signaling pathway and the inhibition of mitochondrial autophagy.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the role of CDGSH iron-sulfur domain 2 (CISD2) in patients with sepsis-related myocardial injury (SMI) and its predictive value for 28-day prognosis and myocardial damage through clinical studies and cell experiments. METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted. Adult patients diagnosed with sepsis admitted to the critical care medicine of Third Affiliated Hospital of Qiqihar Medical University from January 2023 to January 2024 were enrolled. The clinical data, laboratory indicators, expression level of CISD2 mRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) 24 hours after admission, and 28 days prognosis were collected. Patients were divided into SMI group [left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 0.50 or LVEF decreased by ≥ 10% from baseline] and sepsis non-myocardial injury group based on LVEF. The expression levels of CISD2 mRNA were compared between the two groups, and the correlation between CISD2 and myocardial injury was analyzed. Patients were divided into the low-expression group (CISD2 mRNA < 0.5 copy/μL) and the high-expression group (CISD2 mRNA ≥ 0.5 copy/μL) based on the expression of CISD2 mRNA, and into the survival group and the death group based on the prognosis at 28 days. The clinical characteristics were analyzed between the groups. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the independent predictors of 28-day mortality in patients with sepsis. The predictive value of CISD2 for myocardial damage and 28-day prognosis in patients with sepsis were evaluated by using the receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve). In addition, in vitro experiments using human AC16 cardiomyocytes was conducted. The cells were divided into control group, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) group, the LPS+transfection group with overexpression of CISD2 plasmid (LPS+p-CISD2 group), and the LPS + transfection group with negative control plasmid (LPS+p-NC group). The mRNA expression of CISD2 in cells were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), the protein expression of CISD2 in cells were detected by Western blotting, and the cell viability was determined by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8). RESULTS: A total of 85 sepsis patients were included, with 32 developing myocardial injury and 53 without myocardial injury. There were 40 cases of low expression of CISD2 and 45 cases of high expression of CISD2. At 28 days, 60 cases survived and 25 cases died. The mRNA expression of CISD2 in the SMI group was significantly lower than that in the sepsis non-myocardial injury group (copy/μL: 0.41±0.09 vs. 0.92±0.13, P < 0.05). CISD2 was significantly correlated with myocardial injury in patients with sepsis (r = 0.729, P < 0.05). The proportion of LVEF < 0.50 (67.50% vs. 11.11%), sequential organ failure score (SOFA: 15.63±2.15 vs. 11.12±1.52), and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (APACHEII: 29.49±3.51 vs. 22.41±2.61) in the CISD2 low-expression group were significantly higher than those in the CISD2 high-expression group (all P < 0.05), while there were no significantly differences in other indicators. The Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed that the 28-day survival time of sepsis patients with in the CISD2 low-expression group was significantly shorter than that in the CISD2 high-expression group (Log-rank test: χ ² = 5.601, P < 0.05). The proportion of CISD2 low-expression and the proportion of LVEF < 0.50 in the survival group were both higher than those in the death group (80.00% vs. 33.33%, 64.00% vs. 26.67%, both P < 0.05), while there were no significantly differences in other indicators. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that CIDS2 and LVEF were independent predictive factors for 28-day mortality in patients with sepsis [CIDS2: odds ratio (OR) = 3.400, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) was 1.026-11.264, P = 0.045; LVEF: OR = 2.905, 95%CI was 1.029-8.199, P = 0.044]. ROC curve analysis showed that when CISD2 was expressed at a low level, patients with sepsis were at high risk of death within 28 days and myocardial injury. The sensitivity of CISD2 in predicting the 28-day mortality of patients with sepsis was 80.00%, and the specificity was 66.67%, and the area under the curve (AUC) was 0.733 (95%CI was 0.626-0.823). The sensitivity of CISD2 in predicting myocardial injury in patients with sepsis was 83.87%, the specificity was 74.07%, and the AUC was 0.790 (95%CI was 0.688-0.871). In addition, compared with the control group, the mRNA and protein expressions of CISD2 as well as the cell activity in the LPS group were significantly decreased. The mRNA and protein expressions of CISD2 and the activity of cardiomyocytes transfected with p-CISD2 were significantly increased. CONCLUSIONS CISD2 plays a protective role in sepsis-associated myocardial injury and has good predictive value for 28-day prognosis and myocardial injury.
