Objective: To explore the relationship between school sports environment and physical activity levels of middle school students, so as to provide theoretical and empirical support for optimizing school sports environment and enhance adolescent physical activity. Methods: Using multi-stage random cluster sampling, from September to December 2023, 1 329 junior and senior high school students from Xuancheng City of Anhui Province, Lianyungang City of Jiangsu Province, Wuhan City of Hubei Province, Qiqihar City and Suihua City of Heilongjiang Province, and Shenzhen City of Guangdong Province were selected. The International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF) assessed students physical activity levels, and the questionnaire on the characteristics of school sports environment was developed to evaluate the factors of school sports environment. Multivariate ordered Logistic regression was performed to analyze the correlation between school sports environment factors and physical activity levels, and the analytic hierarchy process determined the weight of key influencing factors. Results: The results showed that weekly vigorous physical activity time was [60 (25, 90)] minutes, moderate physical activity time was [60 (30, 90)] minutes, light physical activity time was [105 (40, 200)] minutes, and sedentary behavior time was [ 3 300 (2 100, 4 500)] minutes, only 10.53% of the students met World Health Organization physical activity recommendations, and 89.69% of the students averaged >8 h daily sedentary time. Multivariate ordered Logistic regression showed that adequate sports equipment significantly promoted physical activity across all intensities and reduced sedentary time ( OR = 4.97, 11.54, 4.03, 0.11); diverse sports activities improved vigorous and moderate physical activity while reducing sedentary time ( OR =4.20, 14.06, 0.17); and peer encouragement was associated with increased low-intensity physical activities and decreased sedentary time ( OR =10.40, 0.15)( P <0.05). The analytic hierarchy process weighting analysis identified the top three influential factors related to physical activity among middle school students: sufficient sports equipment, varied physical education activities, frequent peer encouragement, the influence weight accounts for 23.55% , 14.18% and 11.77% of the total, respectively. Conclusion Key school sports environmental factors for adolescent physical activity level include ensuring adequate sports equipment and class availability, diversifying activity content, fostering peer support, and cultivating an active sports culture and a comprehensive approach encourage students participation in extracurricular physical activities.

Objective To compare clinical effect between open reduction and fixation with cannulated screw and threaded rivet via posteromedial approach versus arthroscopic Endobutton plate fixation in treating posterior cruciate ligament avulsion fractures.Methods Clinical data of 38 patients with posterior cruciate ligament avulsion fractures from July 2020 to December 2021 were analyzed retrospectively,and divided into open reduction and internal fixation group(posterior medial approach hollow anchor system fixation)and arthroscopic fixation group(Endobutton with loop plate fixation under arthroscopy).There were 20 patients in open reduction and internal fixation group,including 16 males and 4 females,aged from 26 to 74 years old with an average of(42.9±18.8)years old;13 patients on the left side and 7 patients on the right side;12 patients were classi-fied to type Ⅱ and 8 patiens with type Ⅲ according to Meyers-McKeever fractures classification;14 patients were grade Ⅱ and 6 patients were grade Ⅲ in back drawer test.There were 18 patients in arthroscopic fixation group,including 11 males and 7 fe-males;aged from 24 to 70 years old with an average of(53.5±13.4)years old;11 patients on the left side and 7 patients on the right side;10 patients were classified to type Ⅱ and 8 patiens with type Ⅲ according to Meyers-McKeever fractures classifica-tion;11 patients were grade Ⅱ and 7 patients were grade Ⅲ in back drawer test.Operation time,blood loss,and quality of im-mediate reduction were compared between two groups.Knee range of motion,knee back drawer test,and International Knee Documentation Committee(IKDC)grading,KT2000 stability evaluation and Lysholm function score of knee joint were com-pared at 6 months after operation.Results All patients were followed up for 8 to 16 months with an average of(12.3±1.9)months.There were no complications such as incision infection,fracture malunion or non-union,and internal fixation loosening occurred.The avulsion fractures of knee joint were reached to imaging healing standard at 6 months after operation.Operation time and blood loss in open reduction and internal fixation group were(56.4±7.1)min and(63.2±10.2)ml,while(89.9±7.4)min and(27.7±8.7)ml in arthroscopic fixation group,respectively,and had significant difference between two groups(P＜0.05).There were no differences in immediate reduction quality(x2=0.257,P=0.612),knee joint range of motion at 6 months after opertaion(t=0.492,P=0.626),knee joint rear drawer test(x2=0.320,P=0.572),IKDC classification of knee joint(x2=0.127,P=0.938),KT2000stability evaluation(x2=0.070,P=0.791),and knee Lysholmfunction score(t=0.092,P=0.282)between two groups.Conclusion Posterior medial approach with hollow anchoring system fixation and arthroscopic Endobutton with loop plate fixa-tion for the treatment of posterior cruciate ligament tibial occlusion avulsion fracture could achieve satisfactory clinical results,and arthroscopic surgery has less bleeding,but also has a longer learning curve and longer operation time than traditional inci-sion surgery.The surgeon needs to make a choice according to clinical situation of patient and their own surgical inclination.

Objectives:To report a novel mutation site in the pathogenic gene TTR of transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis(ATTR-CA),and to identify family members at risk,and provide suitable clinical diagnosis and treatment. Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of the proband with ATTR-CA who visited the Department of Cardiology,the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University in March 2021.The proband underwent whole exome sequencing using high-throughput methods to detect mutation genes.Sanger sequencing was used to test candidate pathogenic loci in suspected family members,and relevant literature was reviewed. Results:Among 51 individuals spanning 5 generations in the pedigree,10 family members(including the proband)carried the heterozygous TTR gene c.163A>G mutation,resulting in the amino acid residue at position 55 changing from lysine(Lys)to glutamic acid(Glu).This mutation follows an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern,with early onset in adulthood,rapid progression,and presenting as a mixed-type ATTR-CA.Five mutation carriers had different clinical manifestations,while the remaining 5 mutation carriers,who are at younger age,have not yet shown symptoms.Within the pedigree,7 individuals died(the proband's uncle[Ⅱ-1]who died from stroke at 65 years old,the rest 6 family members died from heart disease before the age of 50). Conclusions:According to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics guidelines,TTR gene Lys55Glu mutation is classified as likely pathogenic,this mutation site has not been reported in the literature before.Present study adds clinical evidence that might broaden the spectrum of TTR mutations.

Regardless of the underlying etiology, renal fibrosis is the final histological outcome of progressive kidney disease. Unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) is an ideal and reproducible experimental rodent model of renal fibrosis, which is characterized by tubulointerstitial inflammatory responses, accumulation of extracellular matrix, tubular dilatation and atrophy, and fibrosis. The magnitude of UUO-induced renal fibrosis is experimentally manipulated by the species chosen, animal age, and the severity and duration of the obstruction, while relief of the obstruction allows the animal to recover from fibrosis. The pathogenesis of renal fibrosis is complex and multifactorial and is orchestrated by activation of renin-angiotensin system (RAS), oxidative stress, inflammatory response, transforming growth factor beta 1-Smad pathway, activated myofibroblasts, cell death (apoptosis, autophagy, ferroptosis, and necroptosis), destruction of intracellular organelles, and signaling pathway. The current therapeutic approaches have limited efficacy. Inhibition of RAS and use of antioxidants and antidiabetic drugs, such as inhibitors of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 and dipeptidyl peptidase-4, have recently gained attention as therapeutic strategies to prevent renal scarring. This literature review highlights the state of the art regarding the molecular mechanisms relevant to the management of renal fibrosis caused by UUO.

Objective:To explore the characteristics of drug-induced liver injury induced by acetaminophen (APAP) in children, and to clarify the mechanism of improving APAP liver injury in children on targeting MCJ.Methods:The C57BL/6 young and adult mice and mouse liver parenchymal AML-12 cells were used in the prospective study. Forty C57BL/6 young mice of 3 to 4 weeks and 40 C57BL/6 adult mice of 6 to 8 weeks were randomly divided into 5 groups (control 0 h group, APAP 3 h group, APAP 6 h group, APAP 12 h group, APAP 24 h group), 8 rats in each group and intraperitoneally injected with APAP (300 mg/kg) to replicate drug-induced liver injury (DILI) model. The serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were detected. Hematoxylin-eosin staining (H&E) staining was used to observe the pathological change of liver tissue. The oxidative damage indexes lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD) of liver tissue homogenate were detected. The expression of MCJ protein was detected by Western blot. Mouse liver parenchymal AML-12 cells were transfected with MCJ interference sequence and APAP to construct hepatocyte injury model. Hepatocyte viability, LDH and SOD levels were measured.Results:As shown in the animals results, after 3 h of APAP administration, ALT and AST levels were increased significantly in young mice, compared with adult mice: (105.25 ± 18.38) U/L vs. (37.38 ± 15.75) U/L, (87.38 ± 30.68) U/L vs. (28.50 ± 19.44)U/L, which suggested that the time liver necrosis occurred in young mice was earlier than that of adult mice. Moreover, the levels of LDH and MDA were significantly increased, while GSH and SOD were significantly decreased after 3 h of APAP in young mice, compared with adult mice, (1 231.38 ± 183.94) U/L vs. (810.50 ± 190.64) U/L, (19.63 ± 3.58) nmol/mg vs. (16.50 ± 3.51) nmol/mg, (39.75 ± 4.62) nmol/mg vs. (53.63 ± 13.07) nmol/mg, (51.38 ± 6.37)% vs. (63.25 ± 9.13)% ( P<0.01), and the levels of MCJ protein were significantly increased. After MCJ knockdown, hepatocyte viability and LDH, SOD levels of mouse liver parenchymal AML-12 cells were significantly improved compared with APAP model group ( P<0.01). Conclusions:APAP liver injury was more common in young mice than in adult mice. Knockdown MCJ expression may ameliorate APAP liver injury in young mice. MCJ may serve as a target for early intervention of APAP liver injury in children, which provide new therapeutic targets and strategies for APAP liver injury in children.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of brexpiprazole in treating acute schizophrenia.Methods Patients with schizophrenia were randomly divided into treatment group and control group.The treatment group was given brexpiprozole 2-4 mg·d-1 orally and the control group was given aripiprazole 10-20 mg·d-1orally,both were treated for 6 weeks.Clinical efficacy of the two groups,the response rate at endpoint,the changes from baseline to endpoint of Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale(PANSS),Clinical Global Impression-Improvement(CGI-S),Personal and Social Performance scale(PSP),PANSS Positive syndrome subscale,PANSS negative syndrome subscale were compared.The incidence of treatment-related adverse events in two groups were compared.Results There were 184 patients in treatment group and 186 patients in control group.After treatment,the response rates of treatment group and control group were 79.50％(140 cases/184 cases)and 82.40％(150 cases/186 cases),the scores of CGI-I of treatment group and control group were(2.00±1.20)and(1.90±1.01),with no significant difference(all P＞0.05).From baseline to Week 6,the mean change of PANSS total score wese(-30.70±16.96)points in treatment group and(-32.20±17.00)points in control group,with no significant difference(P＞0.05).The changes of CGI-S scores in treatment group and control group were(-2.00±1.27)and(-1.90±1.22)points,PSP scores were(18.80±14.77)and(19.20±14.55)points,PANSS positive syndrome scores were(-10.30±5.93)and(-10.80±5.81)points,PANSS negative syndrome scores were(-6.80±5.98)and(-7.30±5.15)points,with no significant difference(P＞0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of treatment-related adverse events between the two group(69.00％vs.64.50％,P＞0.05).Conclusion The non-inferiority of Brexpiprazole to aripiprazole was established,with comparable efficacy and acceptability.

This study using maltodextrin as raw material, 1%-5% polyvinylpyrrolidone K30 as template agent, 1%-5% ammonium bicarbonate as pore-forming agent, curcumin and ibuprofen as model drugs. Porous maltodextrin was prepared by template and pore-forming agent methods, respectively. The structure and drug delivery behavior of porous maltodextrin prepared by different technologies were comprehensively characterized. The results showed that the porous maltodextrin prepared by pore-forming agent method had larger specific surface area (6.449 4 m²·g^-1) and pore size (32.804 2 nm), which was significantly better than that by template agent method (3.670 2 m²·g^-1, 15.278 5 nm). The adsorption kinetics between porous maltodextrin prepared by pore-forming agent method and curcumin were suitable for quasi-first order adsorption kinetic model, and that between porous maltodextrin and ibuprofen were suitable for quasi-second order adsorption kinetic model. While the adsorption kinetics between porous maltodextrin prepared by template agent method and two model drugs were both suitable for the quasi-first order adsorption kinetic model. In addition, the dissolution behavior analysis showed that the porous maltodextrin prepared by the two technologies can significantly improve the dissolution behavior of insoluble drugs, and the drug release was both carried out by diffusion mechanism, which suitable for the Peppas kinetic release model, but the porous maltodextrin prepared by template agent method had a faster release rate. The change of nozzle diameter had no significant effect on the adsorption process and drug release behavior of porous maltodextrin. In conclusion, the porous maltodextrins prepared by two different technologies were both beneficial to the delivery of insoluble drugs, and the template agent method was the best for delivery of insoluble drugs. This study can provide theoretical basis for the preparation of porous particles, promote the application of porous particles in insoluble drugs, and improve the bioavailability of insoluble drugs.
