ObjectiveTo evaluate the public health governance capacity in Jiangsu Province and provide an optimized pathway for the construction of a “strong, rich, beautiful, and high-quality” new Jiangsu. MethodsA total of 806 policy documents, 658 public information reports, and 148 research literatures related to public health governance capacity in Jiangsu Province from January 1995 to December 2023 were collected. The status of current public health goverance was assessed based on the evaluation criteria suitable for public health systems, and the strengths and the weaknesses of the system were identified. ResultsThe public health governance capability of Jiangsu Province was scored at 738.3 points, ranking 3rd nationally. Maternal health care and emergency response capacities achieved leading positions nationwide, both ranking 2nd. Jiangsu had exhibited a standardized guidance in the strategic level, a well-established management mechanism, an extensive coverage in information collection, and a scientifically established health targets setting. However, bottlenecks remained, including an unclear division of responsibilities across organizational departments, an insufficient public-health workforce, the absence of a stable growth mechanism for government funding investment, and difficulties in promptly identifying public needs. ConclusionJiangsu’s public-health system demonstrates leading nationally, yet several components remain underdeveloped. Future efforts should consolidate advantages while addressing weaknesses, further diversify content and forms, establish a stable funding increase mechanism, and clarify departmental functions, thereby providing solid health support for realizing the developmental goals of a “strong, rich, beautiful and high-quality” new Jiangsu.

ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between negative life events and depression severity in adolescent patients with depressive disorder, as well as the chain mediating role of insomnia symptoms and quality of life. Methods374 outpatient patients and hospitalized patients with adolescent depressive disorders were enrolled. The Adolescent Life Event Scale (ASLEC), the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), the World Health Organization Quality of Life Questionnaire Short Form (WHOQOL-BREF), and the Center for Epidemiology Depression Scale (CES-D) were used to evaluate the negative life event situation, insomnia symptoms, quality of life level and depression severity of the subjects, respectively. In addition, the PROCESS 4.0 macroprogram was used to analyze the chain mediating effect of insomnia symptoms and quality of life between negative life events and depression severity in patients with adolescent depressive disorder. ResultsThe results of correlation analysis showed that there was a significant correlation between negative life events and insomnia symptoms, quality of life, and depression severity (all P<0.05). In addition, the results of chain mediation showed that negative life events had a significant direct effect on depression severity, with an effect size of 0.12 (P<0.001). Insomnia symptoms and quality of life played a mediating role in the relationship between negative life events and depression severity in patients with adolescent depressive disorders, with indirect effect sizes of 0.062 (95%CI: 0.040-0.087) and 0.091 (95%CI: 0.059-0.123), respectively. It could also play a chain mediation role, and the effect size was 0.039 (95%CI: 0.024-0.057). ConclusionNegative life events experienced by patients with adolescent depressive disorder not only directly affect the severity of depressive symptoms, but may also indirectly exacerbate depression through insomnia symptoms and quality of life.

ObjectiveTo investigate the role of DEAD-box helicase 3 X-linked (DDX3X) in immune-mediated liver injury (ILI), and to clarify its mechanism by regulating endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS)-dependent apoptotic pathway and its association with the clinical progression of hepatitis B. MethodsMice were given injection of concanavalin A (ConA) via the caudal vein to establish a model of ILI, PBS (control group) and different concentrations of ConA were injected into the tail vein of hepatocyte-specific DDX3X-knockout mice (DDX3XΔHep and DDX3X-flox mice (DDX3Xfl/fl), respectively.. The log-rank survival analysis, measurement of the serum levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and HE staining of liver tissue were performed to assess liver injury, and qRT-PCR and Western Blot were used to measure the mRNA and protein expression levels of glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78), CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein homologous protein (CHOP), and DDX3X in liver tissue. Intraperitoneal injection of 4-phenylbutyric acid (4-PBA, 100 mg/kg) was performed to inhibit ERS. Serum samples (n=30) and liver tissue samples (n=6) were collected from healthy controls, chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients, and hepatitis B virus-associated liver failure (HBV-LF) patients; ELISA was used to measure the serum level of DDX3X, and qRT-PCR/Western Blot was used to analyze the expression of targets in liver tissue. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison of continuous data between multiple groups, and the least significant difference t-test was used for further comparison between two groups. ResultsCompared with the control group of mice, the expression of DDX3X in the liver of mice induced by ConA was significantly increased after liver injury (P<0.05), and hepatocyte-specific DDX3X knockout increased the 72-hour survival rate of mice by 55% (compared with 20% in the DDX3Xfl/fl group), with significant reductions in the serum levels of ALT and AST (P<0.000 1) and the expression levels of the ERS markers GRP78 and CHOP (P<0.05). After ERS was inhibited by 4-PBA, there was alleviation of liver injury (with reductions in ALT and AST, P <0.001) and a reduction in DDX3X expression (P<0.01). The analysis of clinical samples showed that the mRNA and protein expression levels of liver DDX3X in CHB patients and HBV-LF patients were significantly higher than those in healthy controls (all P<0.01), and there was a significant increase in the serum level of DDX3X in HBV-LF patients (P<0.000 1). ConclusionDDX3X exacerbates ILI by regulating the ERS-dependent apoptotic pathway (GRP78/CHOP), and its expression is associated with the progression of hepatitis B. Therefore, it can be used as a potential therapeutic target.

Objective To establish a flow cytometric assay for detecting heat shock protein A2(HSPA2)in sperm and explore the role of HSPA2 expression levels in predicting low fertilization rates in in vitro fertilization(IVF).Methods The principle of in-direct immunofluorescence(IIF)was used to fluorescently stain sperm HSPA2.After the sperm sample was permeabilized and sealed,rabbit anti-human HSPA2 antibody(primary antibody)and fluorescein isothiocyanate(FITC)labeled goat anti-rabbit IgG antibody(secondary antibody)were sequentially added as detection tubes.At the same time,a sample without primary anti-body was set up as a control tube,and the positive rates of the two tubes were measured by flow cytometer.The ratio of the posi-tive rate of the detection tube to the control tube(positive rate ratio)was calculated.The optimal number of sperm for detection and the optimal working dilutions of primary and secondary antibodies were explored using the chessboard method.Under the optimal conditions,the repeatability,linear range and reference range of the method were evaluated separately,in order to estab-lish a preliminary method for detecting sperm HSPA2 expression levels using flow cytometry.After the establishment of the method,preliminary testing was conducted on a total of 85 sperm samples from couples who underwent IVF at the Reproductive Medicine Center of Jiangmen Central Hospital in 2023.The ratio of HSPA2 positivity rates between the group with IVF success-ful(n=63)and the group with low fertilization rate(n=22)was compared,and the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the threshold.Results The positive rate of HSPA2 in the control tube was relatively low,showing a low background signal,while the fluorescence signal of the detection tube was significantly enhanced,indicating that this method can effectively detect HSPA2.The optimal number of sperm samples for detection determined by the chessboard method was 2×106,and the optimal working dilutions for primary and secondary antibodies were 1∶300 and 1∶400,respectively.Evaluation of repeatability and linear range showed good methodological performance.Comparative analysis between the group with IVF success-ful and the group with low fertilization rate showed that the ratio of sperm HSPA2 positivity rate in the group with low fertilization rate(6.19±4.07)was lower than successful fertilization group(10.69±8.26),the difference was statistically significant(t=2.446,P<0.05).The ROC curve and Youden index showed that the best predictive power was achieved when the cutoffvalue for the ratio of positivity rate was 5.5067,with a sensitivity and a specificity of 71.4%,55.5%,respectively.Conclusion A flow cytometric method for detecting HSPA2 in sperm is successfully established.The expression level of sperm HSPA2 detected by this method suggests its predictive value for low fertilization rate in IVF,providing a basis for future clinical scientific selection of fertilization methods.
