Objective:To investigate the characteristics of Internet addiction(IA)in adolescents with depression and explore its relationship with impulsivity and aggressive personality traits.Methods:A total of 71 adolescent patients with depressive disorders were recruited from the Child Psychiatry Outpatient Clinic of Peking University Sixth Hospital between April 2021 and November 2022 (15 males, 56 females; median age 14 [13, 15] years) as the depressive disorder group. Additionally, 83 healthy adolescents (27 males, 56 females; median age 14 [13, 17] years) were recruited as the control group during the same period. Internet addiction was assed using the Chinese version of Young′s Internet Addiction Test (YIAT), with a total score≥50 indicating internet addiction. Impulsivity was evaluated using the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale-11(BIS-11), and aggression was measured with the Buss-Perry Aggression Questionnaire(BPAQ). Differences in internet addiction, impulsivity, and aggression between the depression group and the control group were analyzed. Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between internet addiction and impulsivity, aggression. Hierarchical linear regression models were used to analyze the factors influencing internet addiction, and a parallel mediation model was used to examine the mediating effect of impulsivity and aggressive personality traits in the relationship between depressive disorders and internet addiction.Results:The prevalence of IA was significantly higher in adolescents with depression than the healthy control group [57.75%(41/71) vs 31.33%(26/83); χ 2=10.87, P<0.001]. Adolescents with depressive disorders also exhibited higher impulsivity (65.5±9.2 vs 57.0±9.2, t=-5.72, P<0.001) and aggression (56.3±16.0 vs 42.4±15.1, t=-5.13, P<0.001) compared to the control group. Internet addiction was positively correlated with aggression ( r=0.47, P<0.01) and impulsivity ( r=0.57, P<0.01). Hierarchical regression analysis with the YIAT total score as the dependent variable revealed that impulsivity ( β=0.48, P<0.001) and aggression ( β=0.24, P<0.001) significantly predicted internet addiction. Mediation analysis indicated that depressive disorders indirectly indirectly influenced internet addiction through parallel paths of impulsivity and aggression, with a total indirect effect of 0.543 (95% CI: 0.362-0.761). Conversely, internect addiction influenced depressive disorders through reverse parallel pathway of impulsivity and aggression with a total indirect effect of 0.038 (95% CI: 0.021-0.067). Direct effects were not significant in either direction. Conclusion:Adolescents with depressive disorders exhibit more internet addiction. Impulsivity and aggressive personality traits play bidirectional mediating roles in the relationship between depressive disorders and internet addiction.

Objective To specifically extract and analyze nascent proteins synthesized by bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)after transplantation into ischemic hearts using a technique employing mutant methionyl-tRNA synthetase(MetRSL247G)for nascent protein labeling,in order to explore the potential mechanisms of action in BMSCs post-transplantation.Methods Point mutation at position 274 of the MetRS gene in BMSCs was induced via lentiviral infection to enable azidonorleucine(ANL)-mediated labeling of nascent proteins in BMSCs.The labeling efficiency was verified by means of fluorescent non-canonical amino-acid tagging(FUNCAT).Thirty healthy female C57BL/6J mice(8-10 weeks old)were divided into control and experimental groups,with 15 mice in each group.The acute myocardial infarction model was constructed by ligating the left anterior descending coronary artery in experimental group,while control mice underwent only thoracotomy without coronary ligation.After modeling,both groups received intramyocardial injections of MetRSL247G-modified BMSCs(MetRSL247G-BMSCs)at 3 different sites in the peri-infarct ischemic region.Mice were intraperitoneally injected with ANL every 6 hours for 4 times on postoperative days 0,2,and 6(n=5 for each time point)respectively,euthanized 24 h after the last injection,and cardiac tissues were isolated.The newly synthesized and labeled proteins produced by BMSCs after transplantation into the myocardium of experimental and control groups were collected,using an enrichment technique for ANL-tagged proteins and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(LC-MS)analysis.Gene ontology(GO)analysis,Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)pathway analysis,protein-protein interaction(PPI)analysis,and heatmap visualization analysis were performed to identify differentially expressed proteins at the 3 time points and screen key pathways and genes.Results Under fluorescence microscopy,the MetRSL247G lentivirus-infected BMSCs were observed to be labelled with mCherry signals,confirming the successful construction of the MetRSL247G-BMSCs cell line.Green fluorescent signals were detected only in nascent proteins in culture medium containing both MetRSL247G-BMSCs and ANL,validating the sensitivity and specificity of the labeling method.GO analysis revealed that differentially expressed proteins were primarily involved in basic cellular biological processes such as extracellular exosome formation,extracellular matrix organization,and focal adhesion.KEGG and PPI analyses indicated that the differential proteins were mainly involved in complement and coagulation cascade pathway,actin cytoskeleton regulation pathway,and apoptosis pathway.Heatmap analysis showed significantly upregulated expression of anti-apoptosis and cell adhesion-related factors in experimental group on day 1(P＜0.05),upregulated anti-apoptotic factors,pro-apoptotic factors,and cell adhesion-related factors on day 3(P＜0.05),and upregulated anti-apoptotic factors,cell differentiation-related factors,and cell adhesion-related factors on day 7(P＜0.05)compared with control group.Expression of apoptosis-inducing factor 1 was significantly downregulated on days 1 and 7(P＜0.05).On day 3,most differentially expressed proteins,including anti-apoptosis factors(Protein S100-A11,Clusterin,Gelsolin),pro-apoptosis factor(Cathepsin B),cell differentiation-related factor(Transgelin-2),and cell adhesion-related factors(Cofilin-1,Periostin,Fibronectin)were significantly upregulated(P＜0.05).Conclusions The MetRSL247G mutation enables BMSCs to incorporate ANL and synthesize labeled proteins,confirming the feasibility of this nascent protein labeling technique.Nascent proteins of BMSCs in ischemic myocardium primarily contribute to extracellular exosome secretion and extracellular matrix organization.BMSCs may adapt to and respond to ischemic and hypoxic environments by influencing complement and coagulation cascades,activating inflammatory factors,regulating actin cytoskeleton structure,and modulating apoptosis,thereby maintaining the survival of BMSCs.

Knee osteoarthritis(KOA)is a common chronic degenerative bone and joint disease characterized by degeneration and wear of knee cartilage.It is commonly found in middle-aged and elderly people and seriously impacts on their lower limb activity and quality of life.At present,the treatment of early and middle stage KOA mainly relies on the conservative methods such as oral medication,joint injection,topical patches and traditional Chinese medicine.Platelet rich plasma(PRP),as an autologous platelet concentrate,is rich in various growth factors and has no risk of immune rejection.In recent years,it has been widely used in the repair of bone,joint,and soft tissue injuries.However,the short biological half-life of growth factors in PRP and the fluidity of injection sites can result in insufficient binding force,short action time,poor target therapy efficacy,and the need for repeated injections in the joint cavity,which will increase the risk of iatrogenic infections.Hydrogels are cross-linked polymer networks containing water,and their high histocompatibility and drug release have attracted much attention.The slow and continuous release of drug is achieved by loading PRP onto hydrogel.Its unique adhesion reduces the flow of drug in the joint,thus extending the local action time of PRP and reducing the need for repeated injection.This article reviews the biological characteristics of PRP and hydrogel,the mechanism of action and clinical application of PRP loaded hydrogel in the treatment of KOA,and analyzes the existing problems and challenges,aiming to provide more effective treatment options for KOA patients through the in-depth discussion of this new treatment method.

Objective By observing and measuring the relevant data of the buccal branch of the facial nerve,the parotid duct and the facial artery,the positional relationship among the three was analyzed to avoid accidental injury to the buccal branch of the facial nerve and the parotid duct when ligaturing the facial artery during the operation.Methods Forty adult head and neck specimens were dissected to observe the relationship between the buccal branch of the facial nerve and the parotid duct,the course and positional relationship of the facial artery,and the relationship between the buccal branch of the facial nerve and the peripheral vascular network.The relevant diameters were measured with a vernier caliper.Results The buccal branch of the facial nerve was divided into the superior buccal branch and the inferior buccal branch,and there was no direct anastomosis or connecting fiber between the buccal branch of the facial nerve and the parotid duct.The superior buccal branch was relatively thick,and it has a relatively constant position,which was parallel to the parotid duct.The position of the inferior buccal branch was not constant and it ran on or slightly above the plane of angulus oris.The superior buccal branch was located(10.76±5.54)mm from the parotid duct,while the inferior buccal branch was positioned(6.84±4.06)mm away from the parotid duct.The course of the main trunk of the facial artery was relatively fixed.Moreover,if the branch of the facial artery was missing,other branches of the facial artery would extend to replace the missing branch artery.The main trunk of the facial artery had a diameter of(2.34±0.83)mm,and its branches formed anastomoses with the buccal branch of the maxillary artery,creating a vascular network in the parotid and buccal regions.There was a vascular network around the buccal branch of the facial nerve,which was mostly small branches of the facial artery and the superficial temporal artery.Conclusion The buccal branch of the facial nerve exhibits a consistent anatomic relationship with the parotid duct and the facial artery.During the ligation of the facial artery,the parotid duct can serve as a landmark to accurately locate the buccal branch of the facial nerve,thereby significantly reducing the risk of inadvertent injury to the buccal branch of the facial nerve and the parotid duct.

Objective To analyze the clinical and cardiac magnetic resonance(CMR)characteristics of patients with Fabry disease(FD)and evaluate the application value of CMR in the early diagnosis of cardiac involvement in FD.Methods This retrospective study involved nine patients with FD confirmed by renal biopsy pathology and genetic testing at our hospital between January 2021 and October 2024.Their clinical baseline data,laboratory test reuslts,and CMR images were collected.CMR images were analyzed using CVI42 software to generate functional,morphological,and structural parameters.Results In this study,78％of the patients were male,and a high proportion(67％)had a family history of FD.Electrocardiographic abnormalities were observed in eight patients(89％),while 33％reported acroparesthesia and 22％exhibited cornea verticillata,a characteristic ocular manifestation of FD.Left ventricular hypertrophy was present in four patients,with one case also showing right ventricular hypertrophy.Late gadolinium enhancement(LGE)was positive in one patient,presenting as intermural enhancement.The mean left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)was within the normal range.T1 mapping demonstrated that both global and segmental native T1 values in the left ventricular myocardium were below 1 200 ms.Conclusion Multimodal CMR imaging provides crucial imaging evidence for the diagnosis of FD,with native T1 mapping showing significant clinical potential for disease staging.

Objective To explore the characteristics of upper airway obstruction on multi spiral computed tomography(MSCT)in patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS)and their correlation with the disease,as well as to identify key characteristic indicators.Methods Forty-three patients with OSAHS(OSAHS group)and 45 normal controls(control group)were selected.MSCT of the upper airway was performed to analyze the differences in various observation indicators between the two groups,including diameters at levels of upper airway obstruction,soft palate thickness,mandibular plane to hyoid distance(MP-H),oropharyngeal length,air-pharyngeal ratio,and fat infiltration in the tongue base.A multivariate logistic regression model was con-structed to identify the main risk factors,and the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to assess the diagnostic per-formance of the model.Results The OSAHS group exhibited smaller diameters at levels of upper airway obstruction and air-pharyn-geal ratio compared to the control group[area:(0.75±0.38)cm2 vs(1.36±0.58)cm2,t=5.855,P＜0.001].Additionally,body mass index(BMI),degree of fat infiltration in the tongue base,soft palate thickness,and MP-H were significantly greater in the OSAHS group than those in the control group(soft palate thickness:t=-6.881,P＜0.001).Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that fat infiltration in the tongue base,soft palate thickness,MP-H,and the area of upper airway obstruction were the main risk factors for OSAHS.The area under the curve(AUC)was 0.940[95％confidence interval(CI)0.868-0.979,P＜0.001],indica-ting good diagnostic performance.Conclusion MSCT can effectively evaluate the upper airway obstruction characteristics in patients with OSAHS,with fat infiltration in the tongue base,soft palate thickness,MP-H,and the area of upper airway obstruction as the primary indicators for OSAHS,providing a reference for clinical practice.

Aim To investigate the effect of icariin(ICA)on chronic ulcerative colitis(UC)in mice.Methods Male SPF-grade C57BL/6J mice were ran-domly divided into the control group,model group,low-dose ICA group,and high-dose ICA group.Except for the control group,the rest of the mice were established as chronic UC models.Expressions of tight junction proteins,inflammatory factors,fibrosis markers,macro-phage markers,and MAPK signaling pathways in the colonic epithelium of each group were determined by Western blot,qPCR,immunohistochemistry;the degree of intestinal damage and fibrosis was detected by HE and Masson staining;the co-localization of different macrophage markers with related factors was examined by immunofluorescence.Results Treatment of ICA significantly improved the general condition of chronic UC mice,decreased the infiltration of M1-type macro-phages and the secretion of pro-inflammatory factors,inhibited the MAPK signaling pathway,reduced the co-localization expression of M1-type macrophages with the MAPK signaling pathway,and downregulated the infiltration of M2-type macrophages and the secretion of pro-fibrotic factors in the colon.Conclusion ICA mitigates the inflammatory damage and fibrosis of colon in chronic UC mice.

Objective To explore the effects of different concentrations of simvastatin on nerve regeneration after sciatic nerve injury.Methods Rats were randomly divided into the normal group,the control group,the low-dose group and the high-dose group,with 3 rats in each group.Except for the normal group,adult rat sciatic nerve crush injury models were established in the other groups.Rats in the normal group and the control group were orally administered with water,while those in the low-dose group and high-dose group were orally administered with 98%simvastatin at dosages of 4 mg/mL and 40 mg/mL,respectively.The sciatic nerve regeneration in rats was evaluated by sciatic function index(SFI),HE staining,luxol fast blue(LFB)staining and immunofluorescence staining,etc.Results The SFI of rats in the high-dose group 7 days and 14 days after surgery were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05);there was no significant difference in SFI of rats between the low-dose group and the control group 7 days and 14 days after surgery(P>0.05).HE staining and LFB staining results showed that compared with the control group,the number of neurons of rats in the high-dose group increased,the nerve fibers and myelin were clearer and denser,and the nerve function was significantly restored;while no significant improvement was observed in the sciatic nerve of rats in the low-dose group.The immunofluorescence staining results showed that compared with the control group,the immunofluorescence intensity in the high-dose group increased,while that in the low-dose group decreased,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion High-dose simvastatin can promote peripheral nerve regeneration by regulating the expression of M2 macrophages.

Objective To investigate the effect of joint of Zishen Anshen Tang and growth hormone on the clinical outcomes of in vitro fertilization embryo transfer(IVF-ET)in patients with decreased ovarian reserve function(DOR).Methods A clinical trial was conducted on 108 DOR patients who underwent IVF-ET at the Reproductive Center of from January 2023 to August 2024.They were randomly assigned to a control group and a experimental group,each with 54.The control group was given growth hormone(GH),while the experimental group was additionally given Zishen Anshen Tang.The ovulation induction status,trigger day hormone levels,egg retrieval and embryo development,and clinical outcomes were compared.Results The duration of gonadotropin(Gn)use showed no great difference between two groups(P>0.05).The experimental group had lower Gn dosage,early LH peak rate,and luteinizing hormone(LH),higher estradiol(E2),progesterone(P),egg retrieval,2PN fertilization,available embryos,number of high-quality embryos on day 3,blastocyst formation rate,clinical pregnancy rate,and cumulative pregnancy rate,and a lower cycle cancellation rate than control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The joint of Zishen Anshen Tang and growth hormone for IVF-ET in DOR patients can improve their sex hormone and have a positive impact on clinical outcomes.

Objective·To develop a nomogram prediction model and an online risk calculator,and to predict the continence of patients after robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy(RARP).Methods·A total of 604 prostate cancer patients who underwent RARP and had preoperative prostate magnetic resonance imaging at the Shanghai General Hospital,Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from September 2022 to December 2024 were analyzed and included.All patients were randomly resampled and divided into a training set(n=420)and a validation set(n=184)at a ratio of 7∶3.The patients'continence was followed up every month from the first month after the operation.The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(LASSO)model was applied to screen the features.A Logistic multivariate regression analysis was used to establish a prediction model integrating the features selected from the LASSO analysis.The receiver operator characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn to predict the recovery of continence in patients after RARP,and the areas under the curve were compared by the DeLong test to evaluate the discrimination of the model.Calibration curves and decision curve analysis(DCA)were used to evaluate the calibration and clinical utility the model.Results·According to the postoperative continence follow-up data of the patients,the continence rate of the patients at 3 months after the operation was 58.28%(352/604).The length of the membranous urethra,the thickness of the right levator ani muscle,and blood loss were identified as independent predictors of early postoperative(3-month)incontinence by Logistic multivariate regression analysis of the training set.The area under the ROC curve was calculated as 0.976(0.954,0.998)for the training set and 0.977(0.945,1.000)for the validation set,demonstrating good discrimination of this model.No significant difference between the ROC curves of the training set and the validation set was confirmed by the DeLong test(P=0.949).A good goodness of fit of this model was demonstrated by the Hosmer-Lemeshow test(P=0.179).The clinical utility of the nomogram prediction model was indicated by the DCA plot.This nomogram prediction model was incorporated into an online calculator(https://yitingd.shinyapps.io/DynNomapp).Conclusion·This study developed and validated a nomogram prediction model that can effectively predict the early continence of patients after RARP.The length of the membranous urethra,the thickness of the right levator ani muscle,and the intraoperative blood loss are significant independent predictors of early postoperative incontinence.
