Objective: To analyze the change trends in the body shape indicators and proportions of students in Harbin from 2010 to 2024, and to investigate ergonomic compatibility of functional dimensions of school desks and chairs with current student shape indicators, so as to provide a reference for revising furniture standards of desks and chairs. Methods: Between September and November of both 2010 and 2024, a combination of convenience sampling and stratified cluster random sampling was conducted across three districts in Harbin, yielding samples of 6 590 and 6 252 students, respectively. Anthropometric shape indicators cluding height, sitting height, crus length, and thigh length-and their proportional changes were compared over the 15-year period. The 2024 data were compared with current standard functional dimensions of school furniture. The statistical analysis incorporated t-test and Mann-Whitney U- test. Results: From 2010 to 2024, average height increased by 1.8 cm for boys and 1.5 cm for girls; sitting height increased by 1.5 cm for both genders; crus length increased by 0.3 cm for boys and 0.4 cm for girls; and thigh length increased by 0.5 cm for both genders. The ratios of sitting height to height, and sitting height to leg length increased by less than 0.1 . The difference between desk chair height and 1/3 sitting height ranged from 0.4-0.8 cm. Among students matched with size 0 desks and chairs, 22.0% had a desk to chair height difference less than 0, indicating that the desk to chair height difference might be insufficient for taller students. The differences between seat height and fibular height ranged from -1.4 to 1.1 cm; and the differences between seat depth and buttock popliteal length ranged from -9.8 to 3.4 cm. Among obese students, the differences between seat width and 1/2 hip circumference ranged from -20.5 to -8.7 cm, while it ranged from -12.2 to -3.8 cm among non obese students. Conclusion Current furniture standards basically satisfy hygienic requirements; however, in the case of exceptionally tall and obese students, ergonomic accommodations such as adaptive seating allocation or personalized adjustments are recommended to meet hygienic requirements.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness of modified objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) for evaluating the core competencies of new nurses on standardized training in neurosurgery.Methods:Thirty-seven new nurses on standardized training in neurosurgery were evaluated using a modified OSCE protocol that was focused on core competencies required for clinical nursing practice on the basis of a clinical case library, which consisted of diagnostic assessment upon entrance, process teaching evaluation during training, and outcome assessment upon exit, at five OSCE stations (nursing assessment, skill practice, clinical thinking, health education, and humanistic care). SPSS 26.0 was used to perform the t-test and rank sum test. Results:The nurses highly recognized the effectiveness of modified OSCE and were largely satisfied with teaching. There were significant differences at entrance and exit in terms of the mean OSCE score ( t=24.21, P<0.001), independent learning ability ( t=10.29, P<0.001), and the scores of core competencies—good personal traits ( Z=5.24, P<0.001), clinical nursing ability ( Z=5.07, P<0.001), support and interpersonal communication ability ( Z=5.12, P<0.001), critical clinical thinking ability ( Z=5.17, P<0.001), professional construction and self-development ( Z=5.05, P<0.001), and the total score ( Z=5.27, P<0.001). Conclusions:The modified OSCE can comprehensively evaluate the core competencies of new nurses in neurosurgery standardized training, with good feasibility and effectiveness, which provides a reference for teaching management of standardized training programs.

Aim To screen and study the effects of Tao Hong Si Wu decoction(THSWD)-mediated treat-ment on circular RNA(circRNA)expression profiles in rats with middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO),and investigate the possible roles and molecular mecha-nisms of THSWD.Methods Next-generation RNA sequencing was conducted to identify circRNA expres-sion profiles in MCAO rats after treatment with THSWD and compared with the MCAO model group and control group.Bioinformatics analysis was performed to predict the potential target microRNAs and mRNAs.Gene On-tology(GO)and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)pathway analyses for the potential target mRNAs were applied to explore the potential roles of differentially expressed circRNAs.RT-qPCR was performed to verify circRNAs with significant differences in expression.Results We identified 87 significantly differentially expressed circRNAs between the MCAO group versus the control group,and 86 sig-nificantly differentially expressed circRNAs between the MCAO group versus the THSWD group.respective-ly.Among them,17 circRNAs induced by the MCAO model were reversed via treatment with THSWD.To demonstrate the roles of mRNAs targeted by DECs,the GO and KEGG databases were used.Further analysis revealed that five circRNAs may play important roles in the development of MCAO.Conclusions The com-prehensive expression profile of circRNAs in rats with middle cerebral artery occlusion after THSWD treat-ment is determined for the first time,suggesting that the therapeutic effect of THSWD on MCAO may be a-chieved by regulating the expression of circRNAs.

Objective To explore and compare the clinical efficacy of orthopedic robot assisted femoral neck system(FNS)and traditional manual FNS in the treatment of femoral neck fractures in middle-aged and young people.Methods The clinical data of 62 consecutive patients with femoral neck fracture and age less than 65 years old admitted to the Intelligent Or-thopaedic Department of Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from June 2021 to June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.According to whether orthopedic robot-assisted surgery the patients were divided into two groups:30 patients aged 34 to 56 years old were treated with orthopedic robot assisted FNS internal fixation after closed or limited open reduction(experimental group);32 pa-tients aged 33 to 54 years old underwent FNS internal fixation after closed or limited open reduction(control group).The age,gender,time from injury to admission,average hospital stay,surgical duration,intraoperative bleeding volume,and intraopera-tive fluoroscopy frequency of two groups of patients were analyzed and compared.The hip joint function in both groups of pa-tients was evaluated using the Harris hip joint scoring standard at 6 months after surgery.Results All 62 patients with femoral neck fractures successfully completed the surgery.There was no significant difference(P＞0.05)between the experimental group and the control group in terms of baseline data such as age,gender,time from injury to admission,time from admission to surgery and the intraoperative bleeding.The surgical duration of the experimental group was significantly shorter than that of the control group[42.1(28.5,50.7)min vs.53.4(36.9,62.5)min,Z=-2.338,P=0.019].The intraoperative X-ray fluoroscopy frequency of the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group[8.0(6.0,11.0)times vs.15.0(13.0,17.0)times,Z=-5.960,P＜0.001].In terms of postoperative hip joint function,there was no significant difference in Harris score between the two groups of patients at 6-month follow-up(P＞0.05).Conclusion Compared with manual operation of FNS,orthopedic robot assisted FNS in the treatment of femoral neck fractures can help shorten surgical time,reduce intraop-erative fluoroscopy frequency,and have similar therapeutic effects on long-term hip joint function recovery.

Post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis(PEP)is one of the most common complications after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP).Numerous PEP prediction models have been established based on different statistical methods at home and abroad.The PEP prediction model,as a tool for evaluating and screening high-risk populations,can provide a basis for medical staff to find high-risk PEP patients early and take effective preventive measures.In recent years,new PEP prediction models have appeared one after another,but there is still a lack of recognized reliable prediction models in clinic.This article reviews the research status of PEP risk prediction models,aim to provide a direction for establishing a more reliable,accurate,and practical PEP risk prediction model in the later period.

Heterotypic cell-in-cell structures(heCICs)mediate unique non-autonomous cell death,which are widely involved in a variety of important pathological processes,such as tumorigenesis,pro-gression and clinical prognosis.Methylenetetrahydrofolata dehydrogenase 2(MTHFD2),one of the key enzymes of one-carbon metabolism,is highly expressed in a variety of tumor cells.In this study,in order to investigate the effect of MTHFD2 on the formation of heCICs,liver cancer cells and immune cells were first labeled separately by live cell dyes,and the heCIC model was established by using fluorescence mi-croscopy for cell imaging and analysis.After transiently knocking down MTHFD2 in cells by RNAi,we found that the ability of PLC/PRF/5 and Hep3B to form heCICs with immune cells was significantly in-creased(all P＜0.01).MTHFD2 recombinant expression plasmid was constructed by the homologous re-combination method,and MTHFD2 overexpression cell lines were further constructed.Then,the effect of MTHFD2 overexpression on the ability to form heCICs was detected by co-culturing the overexpression cell lines with immune cells.The results showed that the rate of heCIC formation was significantly re-duced after overexpression of MTHFD2(all P＜0.001).In conclusion,this study demonstrated that MTHFD2 is a negative regulator of heCIC formation,providing a research basis for targeting MTHFD2 to promote heCIC formation and enhance the in-cell killing of immune cells.

HDAC(histone deacetylase)is a class of epigenetic modifying enzymes that can deacetylate proteins by altering the acetylation status of histones in the nucleus,regulating promoter activation levels,and thereby affecting downstream gene expression.However,expression changes of HDACs during endo-thelial differentiation are still unclear.This study used a three-stage method to induce human induced pluripotent stem cells(hiPSCs)to differentiate into endothelial cells,and qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression changes of class I HDAC(HDAC1,2)and class Ⅱ HDAC(HDAC4,5)genes.It was found that HDAC5 exhibits significant expression changes during endothelial differentiation.It is downreg-ulated by 90％during the mesodermal differentiation stage(P＜0.01),upregulated by 3.7-fold during the vascular precursor stage(P＜0.01),and subsequently downregulated by 70％during the late stage of endothelial differentiation(P＜0.01).Immunoblotting experiments further confirmed that HDAC5 under-goes periodic expression changes during endothelial differentiation.Mechanistic studies have shown that HDAC5 downregulation during the differentiation stage of the mesoderm is mediated by Wnt signaling.CHIR99021 treatment and overexpression of Wnt3a can activate the Wnt signaling pathway,leading to HDAC5 downregulation.Inhibiting the Wnt signaling pathway through IWP-2 promotes the recovery of HDAC5 expression.In addition,it was found that HDAC5 is mainly localized in the nucleus,and IWP-2 restores HDAC5 expression,but it remains in the cytoplasm.Further research suggests that downregu-lation of HDAC5 during mesodermal differentiation may contribute to the expression of the mesodermal marker BraT.Treatment with the HDAC inhibitor BML210 can promote early mesodermal differentiation,interfere with endothelial differentiation of vascular precursor cells,and enhance late-stage endothelial differentiation.In conclusion,HDAC5 displays a stage-specific expression during endothelial differentia-tion,and Wnt signaling activation is the main mechanism regulating the downregulation of HDAC5 during the mesoderm stage.

Objective:To establish a mesenchymal stem cell(MSC)-based in vitro cell model for the evaluation of mouse bone marrow acute graft-versus-host disease(aGVHD).Methods:Female C57BL/6N mice aged 6-8 weeks were used as bone marrow and lymphocyte donors,and female BALB/c mice aged 6-8 weeks were used as aGVHD recipients.The recipient mouse received a lethal dose(8.0 Gy,72.76 cGy/min)of total body γ irradiation,and injected with donor mouse derived bone marrow cells(1× 107/mouse)in 6-8 hours post irradiation to establish a bone marrow transplantation(BMT)mouse model(n=20).In addition,the recipient mice received a lethal dose(8.0 Gy,72.76 cGy/min)of total body γ irradiation,and injected with donor mouse derived bone marrow cells(1 × 107/mouse)and spleen lymphocytes(2 × 106/mouse)in 6-8 hours post irradiation to establish a mouse aGVHD model(n=20).On the day 7 after modeling,the recipient mice were anesthetized and the blood was harvested post eyeball enucleation.The serum was collected by centrifugation.Mouse MSCs were isolated and cultured with the addition of 2％,5％,and 10％recipient serum from BMT group or aGVHD group respectively.The colony-forming unit-fibroblast(CFU-F)experiment was performed to evaluate the potential effects of serums on the self-renewal ability of MSC.The expression of CD29 and CD105 of MSC was evaluated by immunofluorescence staining.In addition,the expression of self-renewal-related genes including Oct-4,Sox-2,and Nanog in MSC was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR).Results:We successfully established an in vitro cell model that could mimic the bone marrow microenvironment damage of the mouse with aGVHD.CFU-F assay showed that,on day 7 after the culture,compared with the BMT group,MSC colony formation ability of aGVHD serum concentrations groups of 2％and 5％was significantly reduced(P＜0.05);after the culture,at day 14,compared with the BMT group,MSC colony formation ability in different aGVHD serum concentration was significantly reduced(P＜0.05).The immunofluorescence staining showed that,compared with the BMT group,the proportion of MSC surface molecules CD29+and CD 105+cells was significantly dereased in the aGVHD serum concentration group(P＜0.05),the most significant difference was at a serum concentration of 10％(P＜0.001,P＜0.01).The results of RT-qPCR detection showed that the expression of the MSC self-renewal-related genes Oct-4,Sox-2,and Nanog was decreased,the most significant difference was observed at an aGVHD serum concentration of 10％(P＜0.01,P＜0.001,P＜0.001).Conclusion:By co-culturing different concentrations of mouse aGVHD serum and mouse MSC,we found that the addition of mouse aGVHD serum at different concentrations impaired the MSC self-renewal ability,which providing a new tool for the field of aGVHD bone marrow microenvironment damage.

Objective:To investigate the expression and significance of PD-1/PD-L1 in MDS blast cells,T lymphocyte cell subsets and Treg cells.Methods:Eighty-eight MDS patients and 19 AML patients were collectd as the study subjects,and Iron deficiency anemia and healthy bone marrow donors were used as control group.The expression of PD-1/PD-L1 in MDS/AML blast cells,T lymphocyte cell subsets and Treg cells was detected by flow cytometry,and the expression level of Th1/Th2/Th17-related cytokines in peripheral serum was detected.Results:The expression of PD-1/PD-L1 in blast cells,T lymphocyte cell subsets and Treg cells in low risk MDS group were lower than that in control group,medium and high risk MDS group and AML group(all P＜0.01),and Th1/Th17 type cytokines were dominant.The expression of PD-1/PD-L1 in blast cells,T lymphocyte cell subsets and Treg cells of intermediate and high risk MDS group and AML group were higher than that of control group and low risk MDS group(all P＜0.01),and Th2 type and Treg type(IL-10、TGF-β)cytokines were dominant.After treatment,the differences of PD-1/PD-L1 expression were not statisticatly significant in blast cells,T lymphocyte cell subsets and Treg cells between the MDS remission group and the control group(all P＞0.05).The expression of PD-1/PD-L1 in blast cells,T lymphocyte cell subsets and Treg cells in MDS non-remission group were significantly higher than that in remission group and control group(all P＜0.01).Conclusion:The high expression of PD-1/PD-L1,dominance of Treg(IL-10、TGF-β)and Th2-related cytokines and inhibition of effector T lymphocyte cells in patients with MDS is conducive to tumor cell proliferation and immune escape,which may promote the progression of MDS disease.

Objective:To explore the therapeutic efficacy and prognostic factors of induction therapy for secondary central nervous system lymphoma(SCNSL).Methods:Clinical data of patients diagnosed with SCNSL from 2010 to 2021 at Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital were retrospectively collected.A retrospective cohort study was performed on all and grouped patients to analyze the efficacy and survival.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to explore the adverse prognostic factors.Results:Thirty-seven diffuse large B-cell lymphoma patients with secondary central involvement were included in the research.Their 2-year overall survival(OS)rate was 46.01％and median survival time was 18.1 months.The 2-year OS rates of HD-MTX group and TMZ group were 34.3％and 61％,median survival time were 8.7 and 38.3 months,and median progression-free survival time were 8.1 and 47 months,respectively.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age,sex,IPI,Ann Arbor stage were correlated with patient survival time.The median survival time of patients with CD79B,KMT2D,CXCR4.ERBB2,TBL1XR1,BTG2,MYC,MYD88,and PIM1 mutations was 8.2 months,which was lower than the overall level.Conclusion:HD-MTX combined with TMZ as the first-line strategy may improve patient prognosis,and early application of gene sequencing is beneficial for evaluating prognosis.
