Objective:
To analyze the intervention effects of moderate to vigorous classroom physical exercise on psychological sub health among Uyghur junior high school students, providing reference for mental health promotion and intervention in the ethnic group.
Methods:
From April to July 2022, 647 eighth grade Uighur junior high school students from two middle schools in the Kashgar Prefecture, Xinjiang, were selected using a random cluster digital sampling method. They were randomly assigned to a control group ( n =326) and an intervention group ( n =321). While adhering to the regular curriculum, the intervention group additionally received 12 week, 36 session (every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday afternoon) moderate to vigorous classroom physical exercise intervention (45 minutes per session, including warm up, main exercises, and cool down activities). Self administered psychological sub health was completed through Brief Instrument on Psychological Health of Youths before and after intervention, and the data were analyzed using covariance analysis.
Results:
Before intervention, there were no statistically significant differences between the control and intervention groups in the total scores for psychological sub health or in the scores for the three dimensions including emotional problems, conduct problems, and social adaptation difficulties ( t =0.76, 0.40, 0.01, 0.94 , all P >0.05). After intervention, the scores of the intervention group s junior high school students on the emotional problems, conduct problems, and social adaptation difficulties dimensions decreased by 0.50, 0.28, and 0.18, respectively, compared with the control group, and all differences were statistically significant ( t =3.35, 3.36, 2.07, all P <0.05). The main effect of the psychological sub health category was statistically significant ( F =60.66, P <0.01, partial η 2=0.09). Compared with the control group, the psychological sub health scores of junior high school students in the intervention group decreased by 0.96 ( t =3.42, P < 0.05 ).
Conclusion
The 12 week moderate to vigorous classroom physical exercise intervention has a positive effect on the psychological sub health of Uyghur junior high school students.

ObjectiveTo prepare a recombinant PETase with a dual-catalytic-triad and to evaluate its efficiency in the biodegradation of polyethylene terephthalate (PET). MethodsBased on the crystal structure of wild-type PETase, point mutations (T88H/L117D) were introduced via site-directed mutagenesis. The recombinant protein was prepared using prokaryotic expression and chromatography purification techniques. The enzymatic hydrolysis of the mutant PETase was assessed by relatively quantifying the products mono (2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalate (MHET) and terephthalic acid (TPA). ResultsBoth wild-type and mutant PETases accumulated as inclusion bodies, accounting for approximately 20% of the total bacterial protein. After solubilization in urea, the proteins were eluted at 300 mmol/L imidazole during affinity chromatography purification, with concentrations of 1.824 and 1.833 mg/mL and purities of 83.11% and 84.32%, respectively. Subsequent anion-exchange chromatography yielded highly pure enzymes in the 200 mmol/L NaCl fraction: 2.776 mg/mL (96.86% purity) for the wild type and 1.967 mg/mL (95.13% purity) for the mutant. Following refolding, the final concentrations were 0.484 mg/mL for the wild type and 0.991 mg/mL for the mutant. Hydrolysis assays revealed that the mutant released MHET and TPA at (237.67±17.00)% and (197.33±12.01)% of the wild-type levels, respectively. ConclusionThe T88H/L117D dual-catalytic-triad PETase is successfully prepared and it significantly enhanced PET-degrading activity, thus, it′s a promising biocatalyst for PET bioremediation.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

This study aims to investigate the effects of Pulsatilla powder(PP)on colonic intestinal flora and tryptophan metabolism in piglets with diarrhea.Twenty-four weaned piglets were ran-domly divided into the normal control group,model group,self-healing group,and PP group.The model of piglet diarrhea was established by the compound factor of external evil+internal injury+epi-demic virus,and treated with PP.During the modeling period,the body weight,mental status and fecal patterns of piglets were monitored daily.After the experiment,the colon tissues were collect-ed for histopathological observation,and the inflammatory factors IL-1β and IL-6 in the colon tis-sue was detected by ELISA,16S rRNA was used to analyze colonic intestinal flora and RT-qPCR was used to determine the expression of genes related to tryptophan metabolism in the colon.The results showed that,compared with the model group,PP significantly improved the pathological status of the colon in piglets with diarrhea,with elevated body mass and a significant increase in goblet cells(P<0.05);and significantly reduced the levels of IL-1β and IL-6 in the colon of diar-rhea piglets(P<0.05).The results of intestinal flora showed that PP increased the abundance of Firmicutes(P<0.01),Spirochaeota(P<0.01)and Lactobacillus(P<0.05),reduced the abun-dance of Bacteroidota(P<0.05)、Prevotella_NK3B31_group(P<0.05)and Clostridium_sensu_stricto 1(P<0.01).Meanwhile,PP significantly reduced the expression level of TPH1 mRNA(P<0.05),increased the expression levels of AhR(P<0.05)and IL-22 mRNA in the co-lon of diarrhea piglets.These results indicates that PP may alleviate diarrhea in piglets by regula-ting colonic intestinal flora and genes related to intestinal tryptophan metabolism.This study pro-vides data support for the subsequent investigation of piglet diarrhea prevention and treatment.

Objective To investigate the value of the absolute number of lymphocyte subpopulations as an early warning indicator for children with SMPP(severe mycoplasma pneumonia,SMPP)and to analyze the character-istics observed via bronchoscopy,thereby providing a valuable reference for the early diagnosis of SMPP.Methods This study included 102 children with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(MPP),comprising 54 cases of common MPP and 48 cases of SMPP.The lymphocyte subpopulations,clinical characteristics,and laboratory indicators were analyzed.Results There were statistically significant differences between the two groups in the absolute number levels of lymphocyte subpopulations CD3+CD19-T,CD4+T,CD3-CD19+B,CD3-/CD16+CD56+NK cells(P<0.05).The absolute numbers of CD3+CD19-T,CD4+T,CD3-CD19+B,and CD3-/CD16+CD56+NK cells showed negative correlations with serum ferritin,LDH,CRP,and D-D,respectively(P<0.05).Multifactorial logistic regression analysis identified the absolute numbers of CD3+CD19-T,CD4+T,CD3-CD19+B,and CD3-/CD16+CD56+NK cells as independent risk factors for severe Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(SMPP).ROC analysis demonstrated that the areas under the curve for diagnosing SMPP based on the absolute numbers of CD3+CD19-T,CD4+T,CD3-CD19+B,and CD3-/CD16+CD56+NK cells were 0.711,0.887,0.856,and 0.860,respectively,with sensitivities of 47.4%,80.8%,82.1%,and 92.3%,and specificities of 89.7%,87.2%,75%,and 70.5%,respectively.The combined ROC curve of the four lymphocyte subsets had an area of 0.983,with a sensitivity of 97.4%and specificity of 92.3%.The proportions of bronchoscopy findings and microscopic examination of mucus plugs in the SMPP group were significantly higher than those in the ordinary MPP group(P<0.05).In the mucoid plug subgroup,the absolute numbers of CD3?CD19?T cells and CD4?T cells were significantly lower compared to the non-mucoid plug subgroup,while the percentage of CD8?T cells increased and the CD4?/CD8? ratio decreased(all P<0.05).Conclusions The absolute number of CD3+CD19-T,CD4+T,CD3-CD19+B,and CD3-/CD16+CD56+NK cells in peripheral blood serves as a highly sensitive and specific predictor of small airway mucus plugging phenomenon(SMPP)and can thus be utilized as a potential biomarker for SMPP.Microscopic analysis under SMPP conditions reveals a high prevalence of mucus plugs,necessitating proactive bronchoscopic intervention.Furthermore,the significant imbalance in T cell subpopulations is strongly correlated with the formation of mucus plugs observed during bronchoscopy.
