Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(9):1246-1251
Objective:
To systematically review the development and changes in mental health policies within the National Outline for Children s Development in China from 1992 to 2030, providing a reference basis for future formulation of mental health policies among children and adolescent in China.
Methods:
Based on the four editions of the National Outline for Children s Development in China across different periods from 1992 to 2030, word frequency analysis was used to reveal shifts in policy priorities, and an internationally recognized framework for adolescent health policy analysis was applied to conduct a textual review.
Results:
Word frequency analysis revealed that the term "psychological" appeared 6 times in the National Outline for Children s Development in China (2001-2010) but increased to 20 times in the National Outline for Children s Development in China (2021-2030) (abbreviated as the National Outline of 2021), while the term "health" rose from 4 times in the National Outline for Children s Development Plan in China in the 1990s to 68 times in the National Outline of 2021. The scope of mental health policy interventions expanded to encompass five key areas:health, safety, education, welfare and legal protection. Textual analysis highlighted that the policies of the National Outline for Children s Development in China were demand driven, prioritized vulnerable groups and continuously broadened their coverage, emphasizing sustainability and appropriateness, and monitoring/evaluation mechanisms. By 2023, 42.3% of primary schools and 64.8% of secondary schools employed full time mental health education teachers. However, the National Outline for Children s Development in China lacked direct evidence of children and adolescents participation in policy formulation, and publicly available mental health data disaggregated by age and gender remained limited.
Conclusion
Mental health policies of children and adolescents in China have evolved from nonexistence to gradual refinement, yet institutionalized channels for youth involvement in policy development and evaluation remain insufficient, and transparency in age and gender specific mental health data needs improvement.

The vasculature plays a critical role in homeostasis and health as well as in the development and progression of a wide range of diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular diseases, metabolic diseases (and their complications), chronic inflammatory diseases, ophthalmic diseases, and neurodegenerative diseases. As such, the growth of the vasculature mediates normal development and physiology, as well as disease, when pathologically induced vessels are morphologically and functionally altered owing to an imbalance of angiogenesis-stimulating and angiogenesis-inhibiting factors. This review offers an overview of the angiogenic process and discusses recent findings that provide additional interesting nuances to this process, including the roles of intussusception and angiovasculogenesis, which may hold promise for future therapeutic interventions. In addition, we review the methodology, including those of in vitro and in vivo assays, which has helped build the vast amount of knowledge on angiogenesis available today and identify important remaining knowledge gaps that should be bridged through future research.

Bacterial biofilms can make traditional antibiotics impenetrable and even promote the development of antibiotic-resistant strains. Therefore, non-antibiotic strategies to effectively penetrate and eradicate the formed biofilms are urgently needed. Here, we demonstrate the development of self-propelled biohybrid microrobots that can enhance the degradation and penetration effects for Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms in minimally invasive strategy. The biohybrid microrobots (CR@Alg) are constructed by surface modification of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (CR) microalgae with alginate lyase (Alg) via biological orthogonal reaction. By degrading the biofilm components, the number of CR@Alg microrobots with fast-moving capability penetrating the biofilm increases by around 2.4-fold compared to that of microalgae. Massive reactive oxygen species are subsequently generated under laser irradiation due to the presence of chlorophyll, inherent photosensitizers of microalgae, thus triggering photodynamic therapy (PDT) to combat bacteria. Our algae-based microrobots with superior biocompatibility eliminate biofilm-infections efficiently and tend to suppress the inflammatory response in vivo, showing huge promise for the active treatment of biofilm-associated infections.

Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is an inherited disease caused by a deficiency of the enzyme arylsulfatase A (ARSA). Lentivirus-modified autologous hematopoietic stem cell gene therapy (HSCGT) has recently been approved for clinical use in pre and early symptomatic children with MLD to increase ARSA activity. Unfortunately, this advanced therapy is not available for most patients with MLD who have progressed to more advanced symptomatic stages at diagnosis. Patients with late-onset juvenile MLD typically present with a slower neurological progression of symptoms and represent a significant burden to the economy and healthcare system, whereas those with early onset infantile MLD die within a few years of symptom onset. We conducted a pilot study to determine the safety and benefit of HSCGT in patients with postsymptomatic juvenile MLD and report preliminary results. The safety profile of HSCGT was favorable in this long-term follow-up over 9 years. The most common adverse events (AEs) within 2 months of HSCGT were related to busulfan conditioning, and all AEs resolved. No HSCGT-related AEs and no evidence of distorted hematopoietic differentiation during long-term follow-up for up to 9.6 years. Importantly, to date, patients have maintained remarkably improved ARSA activity with a stable disease state, including increased Functional Independence Measure (FIM) score and decreased magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) lesion score. This long-term follow-up pilot study suggests that HSCGT is safe and provides clinical benefit to patients with postsymptomatic juvenile MLD.

Turning to critical illness is a common stage of various diseases and injuries before death. Patients usually have complex health conditions, while the treatment process involves a wide range of content, along with high requirements for doctor′s professionalism and multi-specialty teamwork, as well as a great demand for time-sensitive treatments. However, this is not matched with critical care professionals and the current state of medical care in China. Telemedicine, which shortens the distance of medical professionals and the gap of disease diagnosis and treatments in various regions through electronic information, can effectively solve the current problem. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a standardized, high-quality visualization telemedicine round system .Therefore, experts have been organized to search domestic and foreign literature on telemedicine round for critically ill patients and to form this consensus based on clinical experiences so as to further improve the level of critical care treatments in regions.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of 18F-AlF-1, 4, 7-triazacyclononane-1, 4, 7-triacetic acid (NOTA)-octreotide (OC) PET/CT and MRI in detecting liver metastases (LM) of neuroendocrine neoplasm (NENLM). Methods:18F-AlF-NOTA-OC PET/CT and MRI findings (dynamic contrast enhanced MRI and diffusion weighted imaging) of 44 patients (26 males, 18 females, age (53.8±13.4) years) with neuroendocrine neoplasm (NEN) confirmed by pathological or clinical follow-up in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from July 2021 to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the size of LM, patients were divided into 3 groups with long diameter ≤1 cm, 1 cm< long diameter ≤2 cm and long diameter >2 cm. According to the 2019 WHO pathological grade, patients were divided into G1, G2, G3 and neuroendocrine carcinoma groups. McNemar χ2 test was used to compare the difference in detecting LM and lesions between the two methods. Results:The detection rate of 18F-AlF-NOTA-OC PET/CT and MRI in patients with NENLM was 95.45%(42/44). Among 44 patients, 227 lesions were detected by PET/CT and 303 were detected by MRI. Based on lesion analysis ( n=307), the detection rate of 18F-AlF-NOTA-OC PET/CT for NENLM was lower than that of MRI (73.94%(227/307) vs 98.70%(303/307); χ2=66.96, P<0.001). For NENLM with long diameter ≤1 cm, 1 cm < long diameter ≤2 cm, long diameter >2 cm, the detection rates of MRI were higher than those of 18F-AlF-NOTA-OC PET/CT (98.72%(77/78), 93.55%(116/124), 97.35%(110/113) vs 47.44%(37/78), 73.39%(91/124), 87.61%(99/113); χ2 values: 5.88-36.21, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with 18F-AlF-NOTA-OC PET/CT, MRI has a higher detection rate for NENLM with different long diameters of NEN, especially for lesions with long diameter≤1 cm.

Dysregulation of p53 and phosphoinositide (PIPn) signaling are both key drivers of oncogenesis and metastasis. Our recent findings reveal a previously unrecognized interaction between these pathways, converging in the nucleus to form a PIPn-p53 signalosome that modulates nuclear AKT activation and downstream signaling, thereby influencing cancer cell survival and motility. This review examines recent insights into nuclear PIPn signaling in the context of established roles for p53 in cell dynamics and migration while also deliberating current research on how nuclear PIPns interact with p53 to form signalosomes that affect cell motility. We emphasize the critical role of PIPns in stabilizing p53 and activating de novo nuclear AKT signaling, which subsequently modulates key motility-related pathways. Understanding the unique operation and function of the PIPn-p53 signalosome in nuclear phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)-AKT activation offers novel therapeutic strategies for controlling cancer metastasis by targeting pertinent interactions and events.

Objective To study how lipid bilayer fluidity modulates the interaction between β1 integrin and CD40L,as well as the formation of CD40L-mediated tumor cell contact interfaces.Methods Supported lipid bilayers(SLB)with different fluidities were prepared through adjusting the 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-[N-(5-amino-l-carboxypentyl)iminodiacetic acid]succinyl nickel salt(DGS-NTA)content.The functionalization of lipid bilayers was achieved by anchoring fluorescently labeled CD40L molecules onto the membrane surface.The contact interface formation of PC9 cells on the functionalized lipid bilayers was observed through confocal fluorescence imaging and fluorescence recovery after photobleaching(FRAP)experiments,and data of two dimensional(2D)reaction kinetics of β1 integrin and CD40L were extracted from Zhu-Golan plots.Results The diffusion coefficient of molecules in lipid bilayer was negatively correlated with DGS-NTA content.High fluidity of lipid bilayer promoted CD40L accumulation at cell contact interface and expanded the cell contact area.The 2D dissociation constants(2D Kd)of β1 integrin-CD40L complexes were approximately 13,31 and 65 molecules/μm2 for the three lipid bilayers with high,moderate and low fluidities,respectively.Conclusions High fluidity of lipid bilayers significantly facilitates diffusion and aggregation of CD40L to the cell contact interface,thus enhancing β1 integrin-CD40L interaction and the stability of cell contact interfaces.

Objective:To investigate the application value of a joint prediction model based on lymph node imaging features in evaluating lymph node metastasis of locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) patients after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 215 LARC patients who were admitted to Peking University Cancer Hospital & Institute from July 2010 to June 2015 were collected. There were 131 males and 84 females, aged (56.7±10.1)years. All 215 patients were randomly divided into a training set of 143 cases and a testing set of 72 cases using a 2∶1 ratio of random seed numbers. The training set was used to construct the prediction model, and the testing set was used to validate the performance of prediction model. Observation indicators: (1) lymph node metastasis in LARC patients after nCRT; (2) imaging feature selection and model construction and evaluation. Com-parison of measurement data with normal distribution between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Comparison of measurement data with skewed distribution between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Comparison of count data between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted using the Logistic regression model. Performance evaluation of prediction model was conducted using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The area under the curve (AUC), accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity were calculated. Calibration curves and decision curves were used to evaluate the consistency and clinical application value of the prediction model. Results:(1) Lymph node metastasis in LARC patients after nCRT. Of the 215 LARC patients after nCRT, results of postoperative pathological examination showed that there were 162 cases with negative lymph node metastasis and 53 cases with positive lymph node metastasis, showing significant differences in age and maximum short-axis diameter of lymph node between them ( t=2.178, Z=-5.305, P<0.05). (2) Imaging feature selection and model construction and evaluation. Forty-one imaging features were extracted from the 215 LARC patients after nCRT, including 9 gray-level first-order features, 24 gray-level co-occurrence matrix features and 8 shape features. The score of lymph node (LNscore) in 162 cases with negative lymph node metastasis and 53 cases with positive lymph node metastasis were 0.18(0.10,0.33) and 0.39(0.23,0.54), respectively, showing a significant difference between them ( Z=-5.487, P<0.05). Results of multivariate analysis showed that maximum short-axis diameter of lymph node and LNscore were independent factors influencing lymph node metastasis of LARC patients after nCRT ( odds ratio=1.277, 25.514, 95% confidence interval as 1.010-1.614, 2.003-324.964, P<0.05). A Logistic regression joint prediction model was constructed by incorporating the maximum short-axis diameter of lymph node and LNscore. The ROC curves results showed that the AUC, accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of the joint prediction model in the training set were 0.779 (95% confidence interval as 0.702-0.844), 72.7%, 71.4%, and 73.2%, respectively. The above indicators in the testing set were 0.805 (95% confidence interval as 0.694-0.889), 80.6%, 66.7%, and 85.2%, respectively. Calibration curves in both training set and test set showed good agreement with the ideal curve, indicating high calibration. Decision curves demonstrated the model′s clinical utility with a high net benefit. Conclusion:The maximum short-axis diameter of lymph node and LNscore are independent factors influencing lymph node metastasis of LARC patients after nCRT. The joint prediction model constructed based on the above indicators can be used to predict lymph node metastasis in LARC patients after nCRT.

Objective To establish a rat model of postoperative delirium(POD)induced by cardiopulmonary bypass with human gut microbiota using fecal microbiota transplantation(FMT)technology,and evaluate the model based on bioinformatics,cytokine analysis,and behavioral testing methods.Methods SPF-grade adult male SD rats weighing 400 to 450 g were selected.After under-going a week of Morris water maze training,rats with consistent performance were used to construct pseudo-germ-free rat models.Subsequently,20 successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into two groups:(CON group receiving fecal microbiota filtrate from healthy individuals)and(POD group receiving fecal microbiota filtrate from POD patients).Behavioral tests were conducted two weeks af-ter modeling,and rat feces were collected for metagenomic sequencing.Rats were euthanized by cer-vical dislocation,and blood and brain tissue samples were collected for cytokine and histopathological examinations.Results Compared with the CON group,the POD group exhibited significantly increased relative abundances of Akkermansiaceae,Prevotellaceae,and Akkermansia muciniphila,while the relative abundances of Lactobacillaceae and Mediterraneibacter massiliensis decreased significantly(P<0.05).Serum levels of interleukin(IL)-1β,IL-6,and tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α were signif-icantly higher in the POD group than those in the CON group(P<0.05).Hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining in the POD group revealed neurons with pyknotic and hyperchromatic nuclei.After modeling,the average latency in the Morris water maze was significantly longer in the POD group than that in the CON group(P<0.05).Conclusion This study utilizes fecal microbiota trans-plantation technology to establish a rat model of POD induced by cardiopulmonary bypass with hu-man gut microbiota.The changes in gut microbiota structure abundance,levels of POD-related in-flammatory factors,and Morris water maze test results in this model are similar to the clinical mani-festations observed in patients with POD induced by cardiopulmonary bypass.
