Objective: To explore the network structure of eating behaviors with anxiety, depression and perceived stress in adolescents, so as to provide a basis for effective prevention and intervention of eating behavior problems and negative emotions in adolescents. Methods: Based on the Psychology and Behavior Investigation of Chinese Residents (2021) database, the study was conducted among 3 087 adolescents. Sakata Eating Behavior Scale Short From(EBS-SF) was used to investigate their eating behaviors. The Patient Health Questionnaire-9(PHQ-9), Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale-7 Item(GAD-7), and Perceived Stress Questionnaire-3 Item (PSQ-3) were used to evaluate their depression, anxiety and perceived stress. Network analysis method was applied to construct a network of eating behaviors and negative emotional symptoms among adolescents, so as to evaluate the centrality, bridge strength, stability and accuracy of each item. Results: The total scores of eating behaviors, depression,anxiety and stress perception in adolescents were 17.41±4.53,6.95±6.08,4.86±5.03,9.34±3.80,respectively. The symptom with the highest intensity and expected impact was "I am only satisfied when I buy more food than I need", with a node intensity and expected impact value of 4.37. The nodes Depression and Anxiety were the most closely connected(weight=0.87). There were no statistically significant differences in the network structure( M =0.13,0.11) and network connection strength(female and male:4.16,4.06, s =0.10;urban and rural areas:4.08,4.07, s =0.01) between different sexes and residents ( P >0.05). Conclusion The negative impact of comorbidities such as anxiety, depression, perceived stress and eating behaviors among adolescents can be reduced through targeted prevention and intervention of core symptoms and bridging symptoms.

OBJECTIVE To explore the epidemiological characteristics of the children with acute respiratory tract in-fection and analyze the changes of peripheral blood prealbumin(PA),serum amyloid protein A(SAA)and pro-calcitonin(PCT)so as to provide bases for the clinical diagnosis.METHODS A total of 177 children with acute re-spiratory tract infection who were treated in Qingdao Haici Hospital Affiliated to Qingdao University from Nov.2021 to Nov.2023 were assigned as the infection group,meanwhile,195 healthy children who received physical examination were chosen as the healthy group.The distribution of pathogens isolated from the patients of the in-fection group was statistically analyzed.The levels of PA,SAA,CRP and PCT were compared between the two groups.The values of the indexes in diagnosis of the acute respiratory tract infection were analyzed.RESULTS The total positive rate of isolation of pathogens was 31.07％(55/177)among the children with acute respiratory tract infection,and Mycoplasma pneumoniae was the predominant species of pathogen.There was significant difference in the isolation rate of pathogens among the different age groups of children with acute respiratory tract infection(x2=8.270,P=0.041);the children of the preschool age group were dominant.There was significant difference in the isolation rate of pathogens from the children with acute respiratory tract infection among the different sea-sons(x2=9.557,P=0.023);the isolation rates were relatively high in spring and winter.There were significant differences in the levels of serum PA,SAA,CRP and PCT between the infection group and the healthy group(P＜0.05);the CRP level was(13.48±4.25)mg/L in the infection group,(7.85±2.51)mg/L in the healthy group,with the difference value maximum(t=15.724,P＜0.001).The area under the curve(AUC)value of the joint detection of the four indexes was higher than that of the single detection in diagnosis of the acute respiratory tract infection in the children(P＜0.05).CONCLUSIONS M.pneumoniae is dominant among the pathogens isolated from the children with acute respiratory tract infection,the preschool age children are in the majority.The infec-tion is prevalent in spring and winter.The children with the infection show the abnormal expressions of PA,SAA,CRP and PCT,and the joint detection of the four indexes has high value in diagnosis of the infection.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical outcomes of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) assisted by 3D printing in the treatment of traumatic osteoarthritis secondary to severe knee deformity after old tibial plateau fracture.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of the 18 patients who had been treated for traumatic osteoarthritis secondary to severe knee deformity after old tibial plateau fracture at Department of Orthopaedics, The People's Hospital of Guizhou Province from March 2015 to June 2017. The cohort included 7 males and 11 females, with a mean age of (64.0±7.7) years. The left knee was affected in 12 cases and the right in 6 ones. The injury was caused by a traffic accident in 12 cases, by a fall from heights in 4 cases, and by a heavy object in 2 cases. The time from fracture to TKA was (5.9±2.8) years. All patients underwent TKA assisted by 3D printing after admission. Knee range of motion (ROM), Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) knee score, and the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) were compared between preoperation and postoperative 6 months. Complications during the follow-up period were also recorded.Results:All the 18 patients completed a 6-month follow-up. At 6 months after operation, the knee ROM increased significantly from preoperative 85.1°±2.9° to 125.3°±1.3°, the HSS knee score increased significantly from preoperative (39.6±1.4) points to (75.8±1.8) points, and the WOMAC score decreased significantly from preoperative (49.3±1.0) points to (8.3±0.7) points in the 18 patients ( P<0.05). One patient experienced poor wound healing 1 week after operation, and 3 patients developed low-lying patella postoperatively. No such complications as prosthesis loosening, infection, or joint stiffness were reported during the follow-up period. Conclusion:For patients with traumatic osteoarthritis secondary to severe deformity following old tibial plateau fracture, TKA assisted by 3D printing can significantly improve their knee ROM and restore their limb function, but lead to no serious complications.

Liver fibrosis is a key histologic marker of long-term outcome in chronic liver disease. Non-invasive tests (NITs) have been shown to have predictive value, but the superiority of "dynamic" versus "static" assessment remains controversial. This article systematically reviews the latest evidence to elucidate the association between longitudinal changes in NITs and hepatic adverse events and assess the incremental contribution of dynamic monitoring to the model. Additionally, it reveals that the dynamic monitoring of NITs is truly superior to single evaluation, but the evidence is limited and the heterogeneity is significant. Dynamic modeling approaches for NITs require a shift from traditional parameter estimation to time-series machine learning. Future studies should make breakthroughs in disease stratification, modeling method innovation, data quality improvement, and prediction ability assessment so as to promote the transition of NITs from "static risk label" to "dynamic individualized engine," which can truly serve clinical decision-making.

ObjectiveTo investigate the regulatory effect of icariin （ICA） on transforming growth factor-β₁ （TGF-β₁）/Smad pathway in bone microvascular endothelial cells （BMECs） and the effect on autophagy in BMECs. MethodsBMECs were isolated and cultured， and the cell types were identified by immunofluorescence. Cells were divided into the control group， model group （0.1 g·L^-1 methyl prednisolone）， ICA group （0.1 g·L^-1 methyl prednisolone +1×10^-5 mol·L^-1 ICA）， and TGF-β inhibitor group （0.1 g·L^-1 methyl prednisolone +1×10^-5 mol·L^-1 ICA +1×10^-5 mol·L^-1 LY2157299）. Transmission electron microscopy was used to observe the ultrastructure and autophagosome number of BMECs. Autophagy double-standard adenovirus was used to monitor the confocal autophagy flow generation of each cell. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） and Western blot were used to detect the gene and protein expression of autophagy in the TGF-β₁/ Smad pathway. ResultsAfter cell separation culture， platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule （CD31） and von willebrand factor （vWF） immunofluorescence identified BMECs. Transmission electron microscopy showed that the cell membrane was damaged， and the nucleus was pyknotic and broken in the model group. Compared with the model group， the ICA group had complete cell membranes， clear structures， with autophagy-lysosome sparsely distributed. The confocal photo showed that BMECs had autophagosomes and autophagy-lysosomes， and the autophagy expression of the ICA group was similar to that of the blank group. Compared with the blank group， in the model group and the LY2157299 group， autophagosomes and autophagy-lysosomes were barely seen in the autophagy flow. Compared with the blank group， the mRNA and protein expressions of autophagy effector protein 1 （Beclin1） and microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3B （LC3B） in the model group were significantly decreased （P<0.01）， and those of ubiquitin-binding protein （p62） were significantly increased （P<0.01）. The mRNA expression of TGF-β₁， Smad homolog 2 （Smad2）， and Smad homolog 3 （Smad3） decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The protein expressions of TGF-β₁， p-Smad2， and p-Smad3 were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. Compared with those of the model group， the mRNA and protein expression of Beclin1 and LC3B in BMECs of the ICA group increased （P<0.01）， and those of p62 significantly reduced （P<0.01）. The mRNA expression of TGF-β₁， Smad2， and Smad3 increased significantly （P<0.01）. The protein expression of TGF-β₁， p-Smad2， and p-Smad3 increased significantly （P<0.01）. Compared with those in the model group， the mRNA and protein expressions of Beclin1， LC3B， and p62 in the inhibitor group were not statistically significant. The expression of key genes and proteins of the TGF-β₁ pathway in the inhibitor group was not statistically significant. ConclusionICA can promote glucocorticoid-induced autophagy expression of BMECs， and its mechanism may be related to activating the TGF-β₁/Smad signaling pathway.

This study was aimed at exploring the prevalence and drug sensitivity of Gordonia strains isolated from sputum samples in Henan Province,to provide data to aid in the prevention and treatment of Gordonia infection.A combination of 16S rDNA and sec A1 gene sequencing was used to identify the isolated strains,and susceptibility to16 drugs was determined with the broth microdilution method.A total of 21 strains were identified through 16S rDNA gene and sec A1 gene sequencing,including five strains of Gordonia broncians,eight strains of Gordonia paraphernivans,seven strains of Gordonia sputi,and one strain of Gordonia aichiensis.Drug sensi-tivity testing showed high Gordonia sensitivity to drugs such as ceftriaxone,linezolid,doxycycline,amoxicillin/clavulanic acid,mino-cycline,cefotaxime,trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole,imipenem,tobramycin,and clarithromycin.The sensitivity rates of the isolated strains were 90.48%(19/21),100%(21/21),90.48%(19/21),90.48%(19/21),95.24%(20/21),90.48%(19/21),90.48%(19/21),90.48%(19/21),and 95.24%(20/21),respectively.Gordonia showed high resistance to rifampicin and cefepime,with rates of 28.57%(6/21)and 19.05%(4/21),respectively.Meanwhile,the resistance varied among bacterial strains.The resistance rate of G.sputi to rifampicin reached 71.43%(5/7),whereas that of G.parapffinivoras to cefepime was 37.5%(3/8).The main species of Gordo-nia isolated from sputum samples of patients in Henan Province were G.bronchialis,G.paraffinivoras,G.sputi,and G.aichiensis.Drug sensitivity tests indicated that drugs including amoxicillin/clavulanic acid,ceftriaxone,cefotaxime,tobramycin,clarithromycin,mi-nocycline,trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole,linezolid,and doxycycline had good antibacterial effects against Gordonia.
