Objective: To explore the causal link of cumulative ecological risk and future orientation with health risk behaviors among higher vocational college students, so as to provide reference for reducing and preventing health risk behaviors among higher vocational college students. Methods: A longitudinal follow up study was conducted on 612 students using convenience sampling from 2 vocational colleges in Hunan Province. The Cumulative Ecological Risk Scale, Future Orientation Scale, and Health Risk Behavior Scale were used during three follow up visits (T1: September 2022, T2: June 2023, T3: March 2024), and a cross lagged panel model was constructed to examine the longitudinal causal relationship of cumulative ecological risk, future orientation and health risk behaviors. Analysis of longitudinal intermediary effect between variables by Bootstrap. Results: The cumulative ecological risk scores of T1, T2 and T3 among higher vocational college students were (2.94±1.44,2.99±1.63,3.02±1.54), future orientation scores (40.49±4.71,41.51±5.72,41.06±4.35) and health risk behavior scores (3.73±2.01,3.49±2.00,3.23±2.00). The results of repeated measures ANOVA showed that the future orientation score of T2 was higher than that of T1, and the main effect of measurement time was statistically significant ( F=5.09，P＜0.01,η 2=0.02). The health risk behavior score of T1 was higher than that of T2, and the health risk behavior score of T2 was higher than that of T3, and the main effect of measurement time was statistically significant ( F=10.12，P＜0.01,η 2=0.03).The cross lagged model showed good adaptability, with χ 2/df =7.20 ( P <0.01), relative fitting indicators GFI=0.98, CFI=0.99, TLI=0.96, IFI=0.99, NFI =0.99, and absolute fitting indicator RMSEA =0.06. Among them, the T1, T2 cumulative ecological risk showed negatively predictive effects on T2, T3 future orientation ( β =-0.24, -0.47 ), and T1, T2 cumulative ecological risk positively predicted T2, T3 health risk behavior ( β =0.20, 0.24), while T1, T2 future orientation negatively predicted T2, T3 health risk behavior ( β =-0.25, -0.18) ( P ＜0.01). Bootstrap test analysis found that T2 future orientation had a longitudinal mediating effect ( β=0.04, P ＜0.01) on the T1 cumulative ecological risk and T3 health risk behavior. Conclusions The accumulation of ecological risk among higher vocational college students can positively predict health risk behaviors, while future orientation can negatively predict healthrisk behaviors. Moreover, future orientation plays a longitudinal mediating role between accumulated ecological risks and health risk behaviors.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to explore the clinical efficacy and safety of endocrinotherapy combined with Shenqi Pills on hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (HSPC). METHODS: Eighty patients who were diagnosed with HSPC and renal-yang deficiency at the First Affiliated Hospital of Hunan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Mayang Miao Autonomous County from 1st April 2021 to 30th April 2024 were randomly divided into 2 groups. The patients in the control group were treated with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). And the patients in treatment group were treated with Shenqi Pills orally on the basis of the control group. The baseline data of the two groups were analyzed. After 36 months of treatment, the differences between the two groups were compared in terms of overall survival (OS), prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level, PSA response rate, Functional Assessment Scale for Prostate Cancer Therapy (FACT-P), Chinese medicine evidence scores, testosterone level and safety. RESULTS: A total of 80 study subjects were included in this study, including 42 cases in the treatment group and 38 cases in the control group. There was no statistical difference in the baseline data between the two groups before treatment (P>0.05). At the end of the observation period, a statistically significant difference in OS was found in the treatment group compared to the control group in the subgroup of patients with a disease duration ranged of 0-6 months (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in PSA levels in the treatment group at 3 months (P>0.05). And the differences in the proportion of PSA50 (98.1% vs 91.4%), PSA90 (92.9% vs 84.6%) and the proportion of decrease in PSA (56.7% vs 33.8%) in the treatment group were found compared to those in the control group after 6 months of tre atment. After 12 months of treatment, the scores of FACT-4 and renal-yang deficiency in the treatment group were (95.28±7.93) and (15.73±5.70) respectively, compared to the scores in the control group (［85.46±10.12］ and ［18.20±4.27］ (P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in serum testosterone (［0.60±0.24］ nmol/L vs ［1.09±2.10］ nmol/L) between the two groups (P>0.05). After 24 months of treatment, there were significant differences in in the FACT-4 total score (［97.95±7.54］ vs ［80.33±8.58］), renal-yang deficiency syndrome score (［14.64±5.15］ vs ［24.94±8.75］) between the treatment group and the control group (P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in serum testosterone ( ［0.73±1.01］ nmol/L vs ［0.59±0.25］ nmol/L) between the two groups (P> 0.05). Better therapeutic results were showed in the treatment group in terms of total FACT-P score, physical situation score, social and family situation score, emotional state score, functional state score, additional score and renal-yang deficiency symptom score (P<0.05). After treatment, there was no serious adverse reaction in the course of treatment, and no obvious abnormality was found in the liver and kidney function of the patients from two groups. CONCLUSION Endocrinotherapy combined with Shenqi Pills is safe and effective in HSPC and can reduce the risk of death in HSPC patients, and the earlier the intervention, the longer the overall survival of the patients. In addition, this treatment regimen can increase the PSA response rate, improve patients' quality of life, and reduce the renal-yang deficiency syndrome score without the risk of elevating serum testosterone levels.

Surface enhanced Raman scattering(SERS)is an important technique for detecting pesticide residues.However,many pesticides have small Raman scattering cross sections and low affinity for gold/silver enhancement substrates,resulting in low sensitivity for direct SERS detection.Indirect methods typically require complex surface modifications and have poor universality.Here,a dual functional composite Au@MnO2 combined with acetylcholinesterase(AChE)was proposed for SERS biosensing of pesticides.The Au@MnO2 with oxidase-like activity could oxidize 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine(TMB)into oxTMB with a large Raman scattering cross section,producing strong SERS signal using Au@MnO2 itself as enhancement substrate.In the presence of AChE,acetylthiocholine(ATCh)was catalytically hydrolyzed to produce thiocholine(TCh),and its reducibility could induce the decomposition of MnO2.Consequently,oxidase-like activity of Au@MnO2 was declined,less oxTMB was produced,and gold nanoparticles(AuNPs)detached from the MnO2 layer,resulting in a weakened SERS response.Organophosphorus pesticides(OPs),as inhibitors of AChE,prevented the production of TCh,thereby blocking the decomposition of MnO2 and leading to the recovery of Raman signals.Under optimized conditions,the Raman signal switching strategy was successfully used for detection of three OPs,i.e.,fenthion,chlorpyrifos,and methyl parathion,with detection limits of 4×10-11 mol/L,2×10-9 mol/L,and 3×10-9 mol/L,respectively.In actual spinach sample testing,the spiked recoveries of the three OPs ranged from 86.5%to 110.6%.This study provided a new strategy for detecting pesticide residues using SERS.

BACKGROUND:Numerous scholars have previously researched certain greater tuberosity fractures and the procedures used to treat them.Few researchers,however,have studied the comminuted split fracture of the greater tuberosity of the humerus(Liu-Gang type IV)with rotator cuff tear in great detail. OBJECTIVE:To compare the clinical therapeutic effect of open repair position modified calcaneal plate combined with suture anchors and proximal humeral internal locking system(PHILOS)plate in the treatment of comminuted fracture of split-type greater tuberosity of humerus combined with rotator cuff tears(Liu-Gang type IV). METHODS:Case data of 30 patients with comminuted fracture of split-type greater tuberosity of humerus combined with rotator cuff tears(Liu-Gang type IV)from May 2012 to May 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.They were divided into the modified calcaneal plate combined with suture anchor group(group A)and the PHILOS with#2 Johnson group(group B),with 15 cases in each group.Intraoperative blood loss,surgical time,and incision length of all patients were recorded.Pain visual analog scale score,Constant-Murley score,as well as shoulder joint abduction,forward flexion,external rotation,and dorsal expansion activities during the last follow-up(>1 year)were evaluated. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The surgical incision length and operation time were shorter,and blood loss was less in group A than those in group B(P<0.05).(2)No significant difference in visual analog scale score and Constant-Murley score was detected between the two groups(P>0.05).(3)During the last follow-up,forward flexion in group A was better than that in group B(P<0.05).No significant difference in abduction,external rotation,and dorsal expansion was determined between group A and group B(P>0.05).(4)In terms of complications,there was 1 case of shoulder joint pain and discomfort in group A(7%),2 cases of subacromial impingement syndrome,2 cases of upward movement of nodules,and 2 cases of shoulder joint pain(40%)in group B.There were significant differences in complication rates between the two groups(P=0.031).(5)In summary,the modified calcaneal plate combined with suture anchors in the treatment of comminuted fracture of split-type greater tuberosity of humerus combined with rotator cuff tears(Liu-Gang type IV)could better restore the forward flexion function of the shoulder joint and has a small incision,less blood loss,shorter operation time and fewer complications.

Objective To observe the effect of coronary reperfusion therapy on the differential ex-pression of plasma exosomal miRNAs in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI).Meth-ods Three elderly male AMI patients undergoing coronary reperfusion therapy in our hospital from October to November 2022 were recruited in this study.The venous blood samples were col-lected at admission and 2 and 24 h after recanalization.MiRNA-sequencing was used to screen the differentially expressed miRNAs which were commonly expressed in the plasma exosomes of the 3 patients.Bioinformatics analysis was performed on the target genes,and then the differentially expressed miR-499a-5p was verified by qPCR.Results Compared with the plasma exosomal miRNAs at admission,there were 418 up-regulated and 406 down-regulated miRNAs at 2 h after operation,and 320 up-regulated and 225 down-regulated miRNAs at 24 h after operation(P＜0.05);Compared with the miRNAs at 2 h after operation,there were 344 up-regulated and 350 down-regulated ones at 24 h after operation(P＜0.05).Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Ge-nomes enrichment analysis showed that the differentially expressed miRNAs were enriched in phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase-protein kinase B,hypoxia-inducible factor 1,and vascular smooth muscle contraction pathways.Gene Ontology analysis indicated that the molecular functions of dif-ferentially expressed miRNA target genes were mainly enriched in protein binding and DNA bind-ing;cellular components were mainly enriched in cell membrane and cytoplasm;and biological processes were mainly enriched in signaling and transcription of DNA templates.The miR-499a-5p level was significantly lower at 2 h postoperatively than at admission[(0.577±0.020)vs(1.000± 0.023),P＜0.05],and at 24 h postoperatively than at 2 h postoperatively[(0.068±0.006)vs(0.577±0.020),P＜0.05].Conclusion Plasma exosomal miRNAs can be used as a biomarker for early diagnosis of elderly AMI patients and for predicting the efficacy of reperfusion therapy.

Objective To analyze the effect of roxadustat and human erythropoietin injection on hemodialysis patients.Methods Data of the patients who received hemodialysis treatment in Emergency General Hospital from December 2021 to December 2023 were selected and the patients were divided into the test group(treated with oral roxadustat)and the control group(treated with human erythropoietin subcutaneous injection)according to the treatment schemes.The levels of hemoglobin(HB),hematocrit(HCT),erythropoietin(EPO),transferrin saturation(TSAT),unsaturated iron binding capacity(UIBC),ferritin(SF),fibroblast growth factor-23(FGF-23),NADPH oxidase 2(NOX2),advanced protein oxidation product(AOPP),P-selectin(CD62P),C-reactive protein(CRP),interleukin-1β(IL-1β),interleukin-6(IL-6),claudin-1(CLDN-1)and the incidence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.Results A total of 80 patients were included,with 40 patients in each group.After treatment,the levels of Hb,HCT,SF,TSAT and CLDN-1 in the test group were higher than those in the control group,while the levels of EPO,UIBC,FGF-23,AOPP,NOX2,CD62P,CRP,IL-1 β and IL-6 in the test group were lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05).The incidence of adverse reactions in the test group was lower than that in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Compared with human erythropoietin injection,roxadustat can significantly correct the anemia state of hemodialysis patients,regulate the iron metabolism,improve the inflammation and the oxidative stress response,and has high effectiveness and safety.

OBJECTIVE To explore the effect of Tuoli Xiaodusan(MDX)on ischemia-reperfusion injury of rat skin flaps and its potential mechanism.METHODS Rats were randomly divided into sham operation group(Sham group),Model group,MDX high-dose group(MDX-H group)and MDX low-dose group(MDX-L group),with 10 rats in each group.After the rat back skin flap model was successfully constructed,the drug was administered by gavage immediately,once a day for 14 consecutive days.The changes of rat skin flaps in each group after surgery were observed,and the survival rate of rat skin flaps in each group was measured on the 14th day after surgery;the histopathological changes of rat skin flaps were observed by HE staining;the protein expression of p-p65 and p-IκBα in the rat skin flap tissue was detected by Western blot;ELISA method was used to detect the expression of TNF-α,IL-1β,and IL-6 cytokines;Ki67 and CD31 immunohistochemical staining were used to observe epidermal basal layer cell prolifera-tion and vascular regeneration.RESULTS Compared with Model group,MDX-H group and MDX-L group had a small amount of e-dema and inflammatory fluid exudation after surgery,and the scab removal time was advanced;the ischemic necrosis of the skin flap was significantly improved,the area of skin flap necrosis was significantly decreased,and the survival rate of rat skin flaps was signifi-cantly increased(P<0.01).In addition,MDX could significantly improve the pathological morphology of ischemia-reperfusion injury in rat back skin flaps,reduce the expression of p-p65 and p-IκBα proteins(P<0.001),and decrease the levels of TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6 inflammatory factor levels(P<0.05,P<0.01,P<0.001,P<0.000 1).The differences in Ki67 and CD31 also suggested that treatment with MDX accelerate re-epithelialization and blood vessel formation after ischemic flap injury.CONCLUSION MDX plays a role in improving ischemia-reperfusion injury of skin flaps by regulating the NF-κB signaling pathway and accelerating epithelializa-tion and angiogenesis.

Objective To investigate the effect of dexmedetomidine(Dex)on the rat model of perioperative stroke and its mechanism.Methods One hundred male rats were randomly divided into sham group,middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO)group,low dose Dex[Dex-L,0.5 μg/(kg·h)]group,medium dose Dex[Dex-M,2 μg/(kg·h)]group,high dose Dex[Dex-H,10 μg/(kg·h)]group,20 rats in each group.A rat model of perioperative stroke was established by middle cerebral artery occlusion.Dex was injected intravenously at different doses during ischemia.After 24 h,the neurological function of the rats was evaluated.Then,the rats were sacrificed and the peripheral blood and whole brain tissue were collected,ischemic core area tissue was separated from some brain tissues and the cerebral infarction area was observed by TTC staining.The inflammatory cytokine contents in serum and ischemic core area were measured by ELISA.In addition,the expressions of formyl peptide receptor 1(FPR1),transmembrane protein 119(TMEM119),CD31 and VE-cadherin proteins were assayed by immunofluorescence,and the expressions of FPR1,nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)and NLRP3 proteins by Western blotting in the ischemic core area.Results Compared with sham group,the proportion of cerebral infarction area and neurological scores in the MCAO group were significantly increased,and the contents of interleukin(IL)-1β,IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α in the serum and the ischemic core area were significantly increased,the expressions of FPR1,TMEM119,p-NF-κB,NLRP3,CD31 and VE-cadherin in the ischemic core were significantly increased(P<0.001),and there was obvious co-expression of FPR1 and TMEM119.Compared with MCAO group,the proportion of cerebral infarction area and neurological scores in the Dex-M and Dex-H groups were significantly decreased,and the contents of IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α in serum and brain ischemic core area were significantly decreased,the expressions of FPR1,TMEM119,p-NF-κB,NLRP3,CD31 and VE-cadherin in the ischemic core were significantly decreased(P<0.001).Conclusions Dex can significantly alleviate perioperative stroke injury.The mechanism may be due to inhibiting the expression of FPR1 protein,activation of microglia cells and cerebral collateral circulation angiogenesis.
