Objective: This study aimed to explore the relationships between various exercise components (frequency, intensity, duration) and social anxiety. Methods: A sample of 844 college students in China participated in this study. The Physical Activity Rating Scale-3 assessed participants’ daily physical activity. Social anxiety levels were measured using the Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale. A questionnaire was developed to collect demographic information and examine the relationships between exercise components and social anxiety levels. Results: One-way analysis of variance revealed significant differences in social anxiety levels across varying physical activity intensities. Specifically, students engaging in high levels of physical activity exhibited the lowest social anxiety. Post hoc analyses identified that exercise frequency F3 (p<0.01), exercise duration D5 (p<0.01), and exercise intensity I3 (p<0.01) were significantly associated with the lowest social anxiety levels. Among these components, regression analysis indicated that exercise duration (p<0.01) had the most substantial impact on social anxiety levels, followed by exercise frequency (p<0.05). In contrast, exercise intensity (p>0.05) did not significantly affect social anxiety levels. Conclusion The most influential factors associated with decreased social anxiety were: 1) moderate to high exercise intensity, 2) exercise duration of at least one hour, and 3) exercise frequency of at least 1–2 times per week. Among these factors, exercise duration and frequency demonstrated significantly stronger associations with reduced social anxiety. Therefore, it is advisable to prioritize exercise duration and frequency in physical activity programs for college students to reduce social anxiety and achieve more substantial outcomes.

Skeletal muscle atrophy is characterized by a reduction in both the size and quantity of skeletal muscle fibers, resulting in impaired muscle strength and function. It mainly includes disuse muscle atrophy, aging muscle atrophy, denervated muscle atrophy and muscle atrophy caused by disease etc. As a cost-effective way, exercise has been widely used in the prevention and treatment of skeletal muscle atrophy, but its mechanism for improving skeletal muscle atrophy remains unclear. Recent studies have indicated that insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) plays an important role in improving muscle atrophy through exercise, in addition to promoting the survival of neurons, lowering blood sugar, and anti-inflammation. This article reviews recent findings on the mechanisms by which IGF-1 mediates exercise-induced improvement in skeletal muscle atrophy, providing a theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of this disease.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the expression and function of microRNA-144 (miR-144) in β-thalassemia (β-thal). METHODS: The expression of miR-144 during the differentiation of murine erythroleukemia (MEL) cells and mouse embryonic liver-derived erythroid precursor cells was analyzed by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR); The expression levels of miR-144 in peripheral blood and day-14.5 embryonic hepatocytes of wild-type (WT) and β-thal mice, as well as the expression levels of miR-144 in peripheral blood of β-thal patients, was also measured by qRT-PCR. The proportion of Ter119 and CD71 double positive cells in peripheral blood of mild and severe β-thal mice was analyzed by flow cytometry, and the expression levels of miR-144 in the peripheral blood of mild and severe β-thal mice and patients were compared; Bone marrow nucleated erythrocytes from WT mice and β-thal mice were sorted and the expression levels of miR-144 potential target genes were analyzed by gene chip. RESULTS: The expression levels of miR-144 were gradually increased during the directed differentiation of mouse MEL cells and embryonic hepatocytes to the erythroid lineage (r _MEL=0.97, r _{embryonic hepatocytes}=0.86); Compared with WT mice, the expression levels of miR-144 in peripheral blood and 14.5-day embryonic hepatocytes of β-thal mice were significantly increased (P < 0.05); Compared with healthy controls, the patients with β-thal showed an increased expression levels of miR-144 in peripheral blood (P < 0.05). Compared with mice and humans with mild β-thal, the expression levels of miR-144 in peripheral blood of those with severe β-thal were significantly increased (P < 0.05). The expressions of potential target genes of miR-144 in nucleated erythroid cells of the β-thal mice were significantly reduced compared to the WT group. CONCLUSION The expression level of miR-144 gradually increases in erythroid development, and compared with mild β-thal patients, the expression level of miR-144 in the peripheral blood is higher in severe β-thal patients. MiR-144 is expected to be an auxiliary diagnostic indicator for β-thal in clinical practice.

OBJECTIVE: This study examines utilizes the advantages of machine learning algorithms to discern key determinants in prognosticate postoperative circulatory complications (PCCs) for older patients. METHODS: This secondary analysis of data from a randomized controlled trial involved 1,720 elderly participants in five tertiary hospitals in Beijing, China. Participants aged 60-90 years undergoing major non-cardiac surgery under general anesthesia. The primary outcome metric of the study was the occurrence of PCCs, according to the European Society of Cardiology and the European Society of Anaesthesiology diagnostic criteria. The analysis metrics contained 67 candidate variables, including baseline characteristics, laboratory tests, and scale assessments. RESULTS: Our feature selection process identified key variables that significantly impact patient outcomes, including the duration of ICU stay, surgery, and anesthesia; APACHE-II score; intraoperative average heart rate and blood loss; cumulative opioid use during surgery; patient age; VAS-Move-Median score on the 1st to 3rd day; Charlson comorbidity score; volumes of intraoperative plasma, crystalloid, and colloid fluids; cumulative red blood cell transfusion during surgery; and endotracheal intubation duration. Notably, our Random Forest model demonstrated exceptional performance with an accuracy of 0.9872. CONCLUSION We have developed and validated an algorithm for predicting PCCs in elderly patients by identifying key risk factors.
