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.

Aim To investigate the mechanism of icar-itin(ICT)on D-galactose(D-gal)-induced TM4 ser-toli cell junctional function damage in vitro.Methods TM4 cells were divided into the normal control group and D-gal treatment group with different concentra-tions.The expression changes of TM 4 cell junction function-related proteins(ZO-1,Occludin,β-catenin and Cx43)and ERα/FAK signaling pathway-related proteins(ERα,FAK and pY397-FAK)were detected by Western blot.The concentration of ICT was screened by MTT method.TM4 cells were divided into normal control group,D-gal treatment group,and D-gal treatment+different concentrations of ICT group.The expression levels of the above proteins were detected by Western blot.Molecular docking was used to study the interaction between ERα and ICT,meanwhile predict the affinity between them.Finally,TM4 cells were di-vided into normal control group,D-gal treatment group,ERα inhibitor group,D-gal+ICT group,and ERα inhibitor+ICT group.The expression levels of the above proteins were detected by Western blot.Re-sults Compared with the normal control group,the ex-pression of junctional function-related proteins(ZO-1,Occludin,β-catenin and Cx43)and ERα/FAK signa-ling pathway-related proteins(ERα,FAK and pY397-FAK)were significantly down-regulated.After treat-ment with ICT,the expression of above proteins were significantly up-regulated.The docking results of ERα and ICT molecules revealed the formation of two hydro-gen bonds between Asp351 amino acid residue of ERα and ICT,with bond distances measuring 3.4? and 2.4?.Additionally,the docking binding energy be-tween them was found to be lower than-7 kcal·mol-1.After TM4 cells were treated with ERα inhibi-tor,the expression of above proteins and ERα/FAK signaling pathway-related proteins were significantly down-regulated,while the expression levels of the a-bove proteins did not change significantly after being given ICT protected group.Conclusions D-gal can cause damage to the junctional function of TM4 cells,and ICT can improve this damage,which may be related to the up-regulation of ERα/FAK signaling pathway.

Aim To evaluate the effect of ricolinostat on X-ray induced myocardial fibrosis and damage to primary cilia in myocardial fibroblasts.Methods Wistar rats were subjected to a single dose of 8 Gy whole-body irradiation,followed by intraperitoneal in-jection of ricolinostat.Serum troponinT(TnT)and brain natriuretic peptide(BNP)levels were measured using ELISA.The degree of myocardial tissue fibrosis was measured using HE and Masson staining.Type Ⅰcollagen and primary cilia were detected using immuno-fluorescence.The gene and protein levels of histone deacetylase 6(HDAC6)in myocardial tissue and cells were detected using PCR and Western blot.Results Compared with the control group,X-ray radiation in-creased type Ⅰ collagen content and promoted the pro-liferation of myocardial fibroblasts in rat myocardial tis-sue.X-ray radiation slightly up-regulated the expres-sion of HDAC6 in myocardial fibroblasts(P>0.05),and significantly increased the formation of primary cil-ia in myocardial tissue and myocardial fibroblasts.Af-ter treatment with ricolinostat,the expression of HDAC6 and primary cilia formation decreased in myo-cardial tissue and myocardial fibroblasts(P<0.05),and acetylation in the cytoplasm significantly in-creased.The arrangement of collagen fibers in myocar-dial tissue was slightly neat,collagen volume fraction was reduced,and the levels of TnT(P<0.01)and BNP decreased.Conclusions Ricolinostat can miti-gate X-ray induced myocardial fibrosis via the disas-sembly of primary cilia,with potential value for trea-ting radiation-induced myocardial fibrosis.

Cardiac cephalalgia is a rare disease caused by underlying coronary artery disease that presents as headache with or without chest symptoms.Headache symptoms are often caused by referred pain,increased intracranial pressure and release of large amounts of pain-causing neurochemicals due to myocardial ischemia,and cortical hypoperfusion.Due to the low overall prevalence of the disease,the lack of chest pain typical of coronary heart disease,and the fact that it may be difficult to distinguish from headaches caused by neurological diseases,accurate diagnosis and treatment of the disease are often delayed.We report a case of acute coronary syndrome with headache only.Revascularization was achieved through percutaneous coronary intervention therapy,followed by standard secondary prevention pharmacotherapy.Follow-up six months postoperatively showed a significant improvement in exercise tolerance,with no further headache episodes.The purpose is to improve the understanding of patients with cardiac cephalalgia,with a view to early identification and timely intervention,and ultimately improve the symptoms and prognosis.

Abstract: Objective To compare and analyze the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment of different subtypes of severe influenza in neonates to provide a reference for the diagnosis and treatment of neonatal severe influenza. Methods A cohort of 40 neonates with severe influenza who were hospitalized in the neonatology ward of Children's Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University between January 2019 to December 2023 were selected and divided into two groups based on the virus subtype: influenza A (n=23) and influenza B (n=17). A retrospective analysis was conducted to compare general information, clinical manifestations, auxiliary examinations, complications, and treatment outcomes of neonates with severe influenza A and B infection. Results The number of days of hospitalization was longer in cases of influenza A than that of influenza B. The proportion of neonates with severe influenza A who exhibited fever was higher than that for influenza B, and a higher percentage of those with fever had peak temperatures ranging from 38.1 ℃ to 39 ℃. Gastrointestinal symptoms, including vomiting and diarrhea leading to dehydration, were more evident in severe influenza B cases. The proportion of influenza A cases with abnormal creatine kinase-MB isoenzyme levels (>25 U/L) was higher than that of influenza B, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). There were no significant differences between the two types of influenza in other clinical manifestations, the incidence of pneumonia/respiratory failure complications, peripheral blood leukocyte count and classifications, the proportion of abnormal aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (>40 U/L), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (>40 U/L), and creatine kinase (CK) (>200 U/L), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) values (all P>0.05). In terms of treatment, neonates treated with Oseltamivir within 48 hours of onset mainly suffered from influenza A. Among those treated with Oseltamivir, the proportion of influenza A cases whose body temperature returned to normal within 24 hours was relatively higher, whereas, for those whose temperature returned to normal within 24-72 hours, the proportion was relatively higher in influenza B cases. These differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions Severe neonatal influenza usually occurs in winter and spring. After severe infection, fever is more obvious in neonates with influenza A, which is more likely to cause myocardial cell damage. Neonates with influenza A can be treated with Oseltamivir earlier and return to normal body temperature faster than those with influenza B after Oseltamivir treatment. Gastrointestinal symptoms are more common in neonates with severe influenza B.
