Objective:
To understand the association of physical exercise willingness and insomnia with depressive symptoms among college students, so as to provide reference for improving depressive symptoms of college students.
Methods:
From October 2022 to April 2023, cluster sampling was used to recruit 11 101 college students from four colleges in Anhui Province. The questionnaire survey was conducted to investigate the willingness to engage in physical exercise, insomnia and depressive symptoms of college students. The multivariate Logistic regression model was used to analyze the association of physical exercise willingness and insomnia with depressive symptoms of college students.
Results:
The prevalence of depressive symptoms among college students was 9.24%. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that college students who were passive participants/non participants in physical activity, or who experienced insomnia, had a higher likelihood of depressive symptoms compared to those who were active participants or did not experience insomnia ( OR =1.84, 2.07, 4.02, all P <0.01). College students who were passive participants or non participants in physical activity and concurrently experienced insomnia had a higher risk of depressive symptoms compared with those who were active participants or did not experience insomnia ( OR =1.87-8.39, all P <0.01). Gender stratified analysis showed that the combined effect of passive physical exercise and insomnia increased the risk of depressive symptoms in both male ( OR = 1.81 -9.87) and female college students ( OR =1.67-7.39) (all P <0.05).
Conclusions
Both physical exercise willingness and insomnia are associated with depressive symptoms in college students. In order to improve the depressive symptoms of college students, it is necessary to improve the enthusiasm of physical exercise and strengthen the education of sleep health awareness.

Objective:To compare the feasibility and efficacy of translocator protein (TSPO) molecular probes N, N-diethyl-2-(2-(4- 18F-fluorophenyl)-5, 7-dimethylpyrazolo[1, 5-a]pyrimidin-3-yl)acetamide ( 18F-FDPA) and 18F-(R)-( N-sec-butyl)-3-fluoromethyl- N-methyl-4-phenylquinoline-2-carboxamide (LW223) for the detection of abdominal vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques (VAP) in rabbit models. Methods:Nine healthy New Zealand white rabbits were divided into group A (control group, n=3), group B (VAP group, n=3) and group C (VAP treatment group, n=3) using completely randomized design. Animals were injected with 18F-FDPA and 18F-LW223 at the end of 12, 16 and 24 weeks. PET/CT and CT angiography (CTA) was performed 40-50 min post injection. All rabbits were sacrificed at the end of 24 weeks after imaging studies. All abdominal aortas were collected for pathological and immunofluorescence examination. Repeated measures analysis of variance (Bonferroni test) and paired t-test were used to analyze the data. Results:Target-to-background ratio (TBR; abdominal aortic lesion/left ventricular blood pool) values of 18F-FDPA in 3 groups at the end of 12, 16 and 24 weeks were significantly different ( F values: 68.09-144.88, all P<0.001). At the end of 12 weeks, there was no increased uptake of 18F-FDPA in the abdominal aorta region in 3 groups. The local 18F-FDPA uptake of the abdominal aorta in group B was significantly higher than the uptake in group C and that in group A at the end of 16 and 24 weeks( P<0.05 or P<0.001), and there were significant differences between group C and group A, with higher uptake in group C (both P<0.01). In 3 groups, there was no significant 18F-LW223 uptake in the abdominal aorta region at 3 time points of PET/CTA imaging. At the end of 12, 16 and 24 weeks, TBR values of 18F-FDPA and 18F-LW223 in 3 groups exhibited statistical differences ( t values: 2.88-36.79, all P<0.05). HE, immunofluorescent CD68 and TSPO staining showed more macrophage infiltration in group B than group C. Conclusion:18F-FDPA can be used to detect VAP in rabbits′ abdominal arteries at early time compared to 18F-LW223, and to evaluate the changes in the stability of vulnerable plaque after lipid-lowering drug intervention.

To explore the feasibility and experience of kidney transplantation with horseshoe kidney as donor kidney. The horseshoe kidney donated by a brain dead donor was obtained by in-situ perfusion and whole piece incision. After methylene blue staining was injected into the inferior pole artery of the kidney and separated from the isthmus along the edge of the stained site, two kidney donors were divided into two recipients with successful implantation. After renal transplantation, the blood supply of the two donor kidneys was good. During the perioperative period, there was no bleeding or urine leakage. Postoperative ureteral obstruction occurred in one recipient. After the double J-tube drainage was ineffective, autologous ureter was anastomoted with the renal pelvis of the transplanted kidney. Up to now, the renal function of two recipients remained stable. According to literature analysis, kidney transplantation with well-functioning horseshoe kidney as donor kidney is safe and feasible, but its postoperative complication rate is higher than that of conventional kidney transplantation.

Objective To observe the value of semi-quantitative parameters related to gated myocardial perfusion imaging(G-MPI)for predicting occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)in patients with chronic kidney disease(CKD).Methods Totally 148 CKD patients who underwent rest G-MPI(R-GMPI)(R-GMPI group,n=95)or stress/rest G-MPI(S/R-GMPI)(S/R-GMPI group,n=53)were retrospectively included.The patients were categorized into MACE subgroup and non-MACE subgroup according to MACE occurred or not during follow-up.Clinical data and G-MPI parameters were compared between subgroups,and independent predictors of MACE in CKD patients were obtained using multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn,the area under the curve(AUC)was calculated to assess the efficacy of each independent predictor for predicting MACE.Among patients who underwent only R-GMPI,the optimal cut-off value of each parameter for predicting MACE was obtained by ROC curve analysis,and the risk of MACE was stratified,then Kaplan-Meier curves were drawn and compared with log-rank test.Results Among 95 patients who underwent only R-GMPI,compared with non-MACE subgroup,those in MACE subgroup had smaller body mass index(BMI)and higher proportion of previous myocardial infarction and hemodialysis,as well as higher R-GMPI left ventricle end-diastolic volume(R-LVEDV),left ventricle end-systolic volume(R-LVESV),sum rest score(R-SRS)but lower left ventricle ejection fraction(R-LVEF)(all P<0.05),while R-SRS(HR=1.068,95%CI[1.027,1.110])and R-LVESV(HR=1.011,95%CI[1.005,1.017])were both independent predictors for MACE(both P<0.05).Among 53 patients who underwent S/R-GMPI,compared with non-MACE subgroup,those in MACE subgroup had with higher blood creatinine and lower estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR),higher S-LVESV,R-LVEDV,sum stress score(SSS),SRS and sum difference score(SDS)(all P<0.05),and SDS(HR=1.454,95%CI[1.063,1.989])was an independent predictor for MACE(P<0.05).Among 95 CKD patients who underwent only R-GMPI,AUC of R-SRS and R-LVESV alone for predicting MACE was 0.659 and 0.694,respectively,and higher incidence of MACE was found in those w ith R-SRS ≥8 points,also in those with R-LVESV ≥91 ml(both P<0.05).Conclusion G-MPI could be used to evaluate myocardial perfusion and function in CKD patients.For CKD patients just underwent only R-GMPI,R-SRS and R-LVESV were independent predictors for MACE,whereas SDS might be utilized to predict MACE in CKD patients who could undergo S/R-GMPI.

Neuropathic pain is a chronic disease that severely afflicts the life and emotional status of patients, but currently available treatments are often ineffective. Novel therapeutic targets for the alleviation of neuropathic pain are urgently needed. Rhodojaponin VI, a grayanotoxin from Rhododendron molle, showed remarkable antinociceptive efficacy in models of neuropathic pain, but its biotargets and mechanisms are unknown. Given the reversible action of rhodojaponin VI and the narrow range over which its structure can be modified, we perforwmed thermal proteome profiling of the rat dorsal root ganglion to determine the protein target of rhodojaponin VI. N-Ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion (NSF) was confirmed as the key target of rhodojaponin VI through biological and biophysical experiments. Functional validation showed for the first time that NSF facilitated trafficking of the Cav2.2 channel to induce an increase in Ca2+ current intensity, whereas rhodojaponin VI reversed the effects of NSF. In conclusion, rhodojaponin VI represents a unique class of analgesic natural products targeting Cav2.2 channels via NSF.

Objective:To evaluate the real-world short-term effectiveness of ixekizumab in the treatment of psoriasis, and to investigate factors influencing the effectiveness.Methods:Baseline data and short-term effectiveness evaluation results were retrospectively collected from patients with psoriasis, who received ixekizumab treatment in Department of Dermatology, Xiangya Hospital from November 2019 to September 2021. A descriptive analysis was performed on the baseline characteristics of patients, continuous data were described as median (lower quartile, upper quartile), and categorical data were described as percentages. Comparisons of disease severity scores before and after the treatment with ixekizumab were performed using Wilcoxon signed-rank test or paired McNemar test. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was conducted to explore factors influencing the effectiveness of 4-week ixekizumab treatment.Results:A total of 118 patients with psoriasis were included, including 94 males and 24 females, and their age [ M ( Q1, Q3) ] was 43.4 (32.5, 53.0) years; plaque psoriasis (99 cases, 83.9%) and severe psoriasis (72 cases, 68.6%) predominated among the 118 patients, and skin lesions were mainly located on the scalp (59/116, 50.9%). Among the 49 patients who had received 2-week ixekizumab treatment, 27 (55.1%) achieved a 50% improvement in the psoriasis area and severity index (PASI) score (PASI50) ; after 4-week treatment, 44 (89.8%), 30 (61.2%), 13 (26.5%) and 10 (20.4%) patients achieved PASI50/75/90/100 respectively, and their PASI scores (2.1 [1.1, 7.1]), involved body surface area (3.9% [0.5%, 14.5%]), dermatology life quality index scores (1.0 [0.0, 2.0]) and physician global assessment (PGA) scores (1.0 [1.0, 3.0]) were significantly lower than the corresponding scores at baseline (12.4 [8.8, 23.2], 22.0% [11.3%, 43.4%], 6.0 [3.0, 11.0], 4.0 [3.0, 5.0], respectively; all P < 0.001]. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the baseline body mass index was significantly associated with the PASI75 response rate ( OR = 0.814, 95% CI: 0.659 - 0.958, P = 0.029) and the proportion of patients with PGA0/1 ( OR = 0.743, 95% CI: 0.562 - 0.917, P = 0.017) after 4-week ixekizumab treatment, and the baseline BSA score was significantly associated with the proportion of patients with PGA0/1 after 4-week ixekizumab treatment ( OR = 0.924, 95% CI: 0.870 - 0.968, P = 0.003) . Conclusion:The 4-week ixekizumab treatment significantly decreased the severity of psoriasis, and may be more effective in patients with lower disease severity and lower body mass index at baseline.
