Objective:
To evaluate the implementation process of a school-family collaborative "online+offline" tobacco control intervention program in junior high school in Beijing and to explore the execution status, influencing factors and sustainability potential of the intervention, so as to provide evidence for optimizing youth tobacco control strategies.
Methods:
In November 2024, using the random number table method, four first year junior high school classes were selected from three schools each in Fengtai District, Tongzhou District, and Fangshan District of Beijing. One class served as the control group, while the other three classes were designated as intervention groups (one each for online intervention, offline intervention, and combined online offline intervention). The control group received only conventional education.The online intervention group was engaged in WeChat push interventions, including watching micro videos, viewing promotional materials, participating in online quizzes and mini games; the offline intervention group attended knowledge lectures, played peer games, and participated in offline knowledge competitions; the combined online offline intervention group integrated all the aforementioned online and offline intervention measures. The intervention period was from November 2024 to June 2025, spanning a total of 7 months. Based on the Practical, Robust Implementation and Sustainability Model(PRISM) framework, a qualitative research design was employed to conduct semi structured interviews with 48 participants (12 in each of the intervention groups and 12 organizational staff members) from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in 3 districts and 3 sampled schools. The interview outlines were designed according to the intervention plan. Data was managed using Nvivo 12.0 software and analyzed following Colaizzi s seven step phenomenological analysis method. Theoretical saturation was assessed using a reserved subset of transcripts.
Results:
Four core themes were identified in the tobacco control intervention process. Overall fidelity of intervention implementation was largely consistent with the original plan, and students showed strong willingness and positive evaluations toward interactive formats such as knowledge contests and peer games, though occasional breakdowns in school-family communication and blurred boundaries between online and offline components were observed; the participants showed a polarized response in terms of satisfaction and participation, most students and parents recognized the significance of the activity, and some parents observed a reduction in smoking behavior; the implementation of internal tobacco control policies in the school was strict, and the atmosphere was favorable, but there was still room for improvement, such as the scarcity of community tobacco control activities and the difficulty in implementing smoke free units; implementation and sustainability infrastructure were preliminarily established, such as through homeroom teacher supervision and training student assistants to assisted in activities, while the sustainability support system required further refinement.
Conclusion
The school-family collaborative "online+offline" tobacco control intervention has demonstrated significant positive effects, but further optimization of activity design, enhancement of community reward mechanisms, and standardized training are required to improve the efficacy and sustainability of the intervention.

ObjectiveTo observe the effects of modified Chaihu Shugansan on the calmodulin-dependent protein kinase Ⅱ(CaMKⅡ)/cAMP-response element binding protein (CREB) signaling pathway in the hippocampus and heart tissue of a rat model with myocardial ischemia and depression and explore the mechanism by which this formula prevents and treats coronary heart disease combined with depression. MethodsThe model of myocardial ischemia combined with depression was established by high-fat diet, intraperitoneal injection of isoproterenol (ISO), and chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS). A total of 108 SD male rats were randomly divided into normal group, model group, high (23.4 g·kg-1), medium (11.7 g·kg-1), and low (5.85 g·kg-1) dose groups of modified Chaihu Shugansan, CaMKⅡ inhibitor (KN93) group, and KN93 + high, medium, and low dose groups of modified Chaihu Shugansan, with 12 rats in each group. From the first day of modeling to the end of modeling, drugs were administered once a day. In the seventh and eighth weeks, the KN93 group and the KN93 + high, medium, and low dose groups of modified Chaihu Shugansan were intraperitoneally injected with KN93 three times weekly. At the end of the eighth week, behavioral tests including sucrose preference, open field, and elevated plus maze were conducted. Electrocardiogram (ECG) lead Ⅱ changes were observed in each group of rats, and hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was performed to observe changes in heart tissue. Serum levels of triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were measured by using an enzyme-labeled instrument. Creatine kinase (CK) and creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) were detected by ultraviolet spectrophotometry, while serum monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) was used to detect mRNA expression of CaMKⅡ and CREB in hippocampal and heart tissue, and Western blot was performed to assess protein expression of CaMKⅡ, phosphorylated (p)-CaMKⅡ, CREB, and p-CREB. ResultsCompared to the normal group, the model group showed significant reductions in sucrose preference rate, total activity distance in the open field, number of entries into the center area of the open field, and percentage of entries into the open arms of the elevated plus maze (P<0.01). The ECG showed ST-segment elevation, and HE staining showed serious degeneration of myocardial fibers, disordered arrangement, and infiltration of a large number of inflammatory cells. In addition, serum TC and LDL levels increased (P<0.01), and HDL level decreased (P<0.01). CK, CK-MB, LDH, and MCP-1 levels significantly increased (P<0.05, P<0.01). The mRNA expression of CaMKⅡ and CREB and the protein expression of p-CaMKⅡ and p-CREB decreased in the hippocampal tissue (P<0.05, P<0.01), but those increased in the heart tissue (P<0.01). Compared to the model group, the high, medium, and low dose groups of modified Chaihu Shugansan showed improvements in these abnormalities. The KN93 group had reduced sucrose preference, total activity distance in the open field, number of entries into the center area of the open field, and percentage of entries into the open arms of the elevated plus maze (P<0.01), as well as decreased serum CK, CK-MB, LDH, and MCP-1 levels (P<0.05, P<0.01). KN93 also reduced ST-segment elevation, alleviated the degeneration degree of myocardial fibrosis, and lowered inflammatory cell infiltration. The mRNA expression of CaMKⅡ and CREB and the protein expression of p-CaMKⅡ and p-CREB in both the hippocampal and heart tissue were reduced (P<0.05, P<0.01). The KN93 + high, medium, and low dose groups of modified Chaihu Shugansan showed further improvements in these abnormalities compared to the KN93 group. ConclusionThe modified Chaihu Shugansan exerts antidepressant and myocardial protective effects in rats with myocardial ischemia and depression, possibly related to bidirectional regulation of the CaMKⅡ/CREB signaling pathway, with the high-dose modified Chaihu Shugansan showing the best effects.

Objective To investigate the risk factors for lymph node metastasis in resectable lung adenocarcinoma by combining spatial location, clinical, and imaging features, and to construct a lymph node metastasis prediction model. Methods A retrospective study on patients who underwent chest CT at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from June 2016 to June 2020 and were surgically confirmed to have invasive lung adenocarcinoma with or without lymph node metastasis was conducted. Patients were divided into a positive group and a negative group based on the presence or absence of lymph node metastasis. Clinical and imaging data of the patients were collected, and the independent risk factors for lymph node metastasis in resectable lung adenocarcinoma were analyzed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression. A combined spatial location-clinical-imaging feature prediction model for lymph node metastasis was established and compared with the traditional lymph node metastasis prediction model that does not include spatial location features. Results A total of 611 patients were included, with 333 in the positive group, including 172 males and 161 females, with an average age of (58.9±9.7) years; and 278 in the negative group, including 127 males and 151 females, with an average age of (60.1±11.4) years. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that the spatial relationship of the lesion to the lung hilum, nodule type, pleural changes, and serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels were independent risk factors for lymph node metastasis. Based on this, the combined spatial location-clinical-imaging feature prediction model had a sensitivity of 91.67%, specificity of 74.05%, accuracy of 87.88%, and area under the curve (AUC) of 0.885. The traditional lymph node metastasis prediction model, which did not include spatial location features, had a sensitivity of 76.40%, specificity of 72.10%, accuracy of 53.86%, and AUC of 0.827. The difference in AUC between the two prediction methods was statistically significant (P=0.026). Compared with the traditional prediction model, the predictive performance of the combined spatial location-clinical-imaging feature prediction model was significantly improved. Conclusion In patients with resectable lung adenocarcinoma, those with central/inner spatial location, solid density, pleural changes with wide base depression, and elevated serum CEA levels have a higher risk of lymph node metastasis.

Aortic aneurysm and dissection are critical cardiovascular diseases that threaten human life and health seriously. No pharmacological treatment can effectively prevent disease progression. The imbalance of aortic wall cells and non-cellular components leads to structural or functional degeneration of the aorta, which is a prerequisite for disease occurrence. As the important non-cellular component, extracellular matrix (ECM) is crucial to maintain the aortic structure, function, and homeostasis. Abnormal production of elastin and collagen, destruction of cross-linking between elastic fibers and collagen fibers, and the imbalance of metalloproteinase and inhibitors leads to excessive degradation of ECM proteins, all of which have destroyed the structure and function of aorta. It will provide more ideas for disease prevention and treatment by learning ECM proteins and their metabolic mechanism. Here, we focus on the ECM proteins that have been reported to be involved in aortic aneurysm and dissection, and discuss the regulatory mechanism of metalloproteinase and inhibitors.

Objective:To explore the epidemiology and clinical characteristics of hospitalized patients with acute poisoning at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University in Jiangxi Province.Methods:Based on the electronic medical records management platform of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, a retrospective analysis was conducted on hospitalized patients with acute poisoning based on ICD-10 disease codes from 2014 to 2021. The gender, age, residence, poison type, etiology, route of exposure, illness severity, diagnostic and therapeutic processes, hospital stay duration, and prognosis of patients were collected.Results:A total of 1 953 cases of acute poisoning were included, comprising 871 males (44.6%) and 1 082 females (55.4%). The age was (42.7±20.0) years, with 113 fatalities (5.8%). Urban residents accounted for 706 cases (36.1%) and rural residents for 1 247 cases (63.9%). The highest incidence occurred in the 41-60 age group. Suicide was the primary cause, constituting 1 318 cases (67.5%), followed by accidental ingestion or contact, with overdose being less frequent. Oral poison way was the predominant route (1 681 cases, 86.1%), followed by inhalation and contact. Pesticide poisoning was the predominant type of poisoning in this study, with 847 cases (43.4%), followed by drug poisoning and foodborne poisoning. Pesticide poisoning predominated among rural residents (79.2%), while drug poisoning was more prevalent among urban residents (53.5%).Conclusions:In this study, patients with acute poisoning exhibited predominantly female gender, hailed from rural areas, and primary etiology of poisoning was pesticide ingestion for suicidal intent. Targeted education and control measures should be carried out for the above high-risk areas, populations and poisons.
