Objective: To understand the trends of classroom lighting and illumination of primary and secondary schools in Beijing from 2016 to 2023, so as to provide a scientific basis for targeted improvement measures. Methods: A sampling survey was conducted on the lighting and illumination indicators of 8 390 classrooms in primary and secondary schools in Beijing from 2016 to 2023. The survey included classroom daylight factor, window to floor area ratio, average illuminance and illuminance uniformity on the desks, average illuminance and illuminance uniformity on blackboards, as well as classroom lighting and blackboard illumination sources. Intergroup comparisons were performed using the Kruskal-Wallis H test and the Chi square test, and Spearman correlation analysis was used to examine the trend of classroom lighting and illumination changes. Results: Except the window to floor area ratio, the measured values and compliance rates of all lighting and illumination indicators showed an overall upward trend from 2016 to 2023 (daylight factor r = 0.27, χ 2 trend =206.80, average illuminance on the desk surface r =0.30, χ 2 trend =87.97, illuminance uniformity on the desk surface r =0.14, χ 2 trend =73.59, average illuminance on the blackboard r =0.33, χ 2 trend =477.43, illuminance uniformity on the blackboard r = 0.09, χ 2 trend =50.76) (all P ＜0.01). The lighting and illumination indicators of classrooms (included classroom daylight factor, average illuminance and illuminance uniformity on the desks, average illuminance and illuminance uniformity on blackboards) in urban schools, primary schools, and secondary schools from 2016 to 2023 showed an upward trend (urban r =0.23-0.40, χ 2 trend =88.66-392.18; primary school r =0.12-0.36, χ 2 trend =39.50-281.44; secondary schools r =0.06-0.31, χ 2 trend =11.79-213.73) (all P ＜ 0.01 ). The illuminance uniformity on the blackboard in suburban schools showed a downward trend ( r = -0.09, χ 2 trend =31.53, both P ＜0.01). The illuminance uniformity on the desk surface in suburban schools showed no significant change ( r =0.03, χ 2 trend =1.23, both P ＞0.05). The other indicators showed an upward trend (daylight factor r =0.28, χ 2 trend =40.69, average illuminance on the desk surface r =0.24, χ 2 trend =16.35, average illuminance on the blackboard r =0.25, χ 2 trend =118.05, all P ＜0.01). The trends of classroom and blackboard illumination sources were that fluorescent lamps decreased year by year and LED lamps increased by year (classroom illumination sources χ 2 trend =1 059.82, blackboard illumination sources χ 2 trend =1 070.25, both P ＜0.01). Conclusions The classroom lighting and illumination in primary and secondary schools in Beijing has shown an overall improving trend from 2016 to 2023. However, problems remain, such as limited improvement of illuminance uniformity indicators, late start and poor effect of reconstruction in suburban schools. Further improvements are still needed.

ObjectiveThis study employs a special conformational engineering (CE) technology to construct an α-chymotrypsin-like active center, which includes a catalytic triad, an oxyanion hole, and a substrate-binding site, on silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), thereby creating an AgNP-based artificial hydrolase with high catalytic activity. This study provides a new approach for the design of highly efficient artificial enzymes and enzyme-mimicking. MethodsAgNPs were chosen as the scaffold to build the an α-chymotrypsin-like active center. A special CE procedure enables the designed peptide, Triad5, to adopt an α‑helical conformation on AgNPs, with the key catalytic residues located on one side of the α-helix forming a catalytic active center with a catalytic triad, an oxyanion hole, and a substrate-binding site. The CE procedure consists of three steps, including conformation induction via trifluoroethanol (TFE), conformation stabilization on AgNPs via Ag-S bonds, and TFE removal via lyophilization. Circular dichroism (CD) spectra were used to confirm the formation and stabilization of the α-helix conformation. Mutations of the key residues combined with stopped-flow kinetic experiments were used to demonstrate the indispensability of each key residue and the synergistic effects among the catalytic triad, the oxyanion hole, and the substrate-binding site. ResultsCD spectra show that the designed Triad5 alone is in random coil conformation; when conjugated on AgNPs, Triad5 still remains largely unstructured; but after the CE treatment, Triad5 adopts a typical α-helical conformation on AgNPs as designed, thus produces an AgNP-based artificial hydrolase, Silverzyme. Silverzyme exhibits extremely high hydrolytic activity towards p-nitrophenyl acetate (p-NPA), with an extremely high catalytic turnover number per active site of 3.5 s^-1, which is even higher than that of α-chymotrypsin. As a comparison, the AgNP-Triad5 conjugate without CE treatment shows much lower catalytic activity than Silverzyme, highlighting the important role of the right conformation of the active center for the catalytic activity and the power of the CE treatment. When the key residues of the catalytic triad of Silverzyme were mutated to alanine, the overall catalytic efficiency of this mutant dropped by about 2 orders of magnitude, unambiguously demonstrating the key role of the designed catalytic triad. Similarly, when the residues for the oxyanion hole were deleted, the mutant with the intact catalytic triad also showed significantly decreased catalytic activity, highlighting the indispensable role of the oxyanion hole for the catalytic activity. Unexpectedly, when both the catalytic triad and the oxyanion hole were kept intact, a slight change of the binding site also resulted in significantly decreased catalytic activity, indicating that the designed binding site is at the right position to align the substrate in the right orientation in the active center for catalytic hydrolysis. These results confirm the synergy among the catalytic triad, the oxyanion hole, and the substrate-binding site, indicating successful mimicking of the active center of α-chymotrypsin. Moreover, Silverzyme shows better thermal stability than α-chymotrypsin, and can even hydrolyze the tough non-activated ester diethyl phthalate, a priority pollutant by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). ConclusionThis study successfully mimicked the complex catalytic active center of α-chymotrypsin using a conformational engineering strategy, and produced a highly active artificial hydrolase with a well-defined structure and catalytic mechanism. The findings highlight the significant potential of conformational engineering.

Background and aims The mechanism of cholestatic liver injury (CLI) is unclear, and effective therapies are lacking. While peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) agonists show potential hepatoprotective effect and pyroptosis is implicated in hepatocellular damage, how PPARα activation mitigates lithocholic acid (LCA)-induced pyroptosis remains unknown. Methods The hepatoprotective effect of PPARα agonists was evaluated in a mouse model of intrahepatic cholestasis induced by LCA. Liver injury was assessed via serum biochemistry, hematoxylin and eosin and TUNEL staining, and electron microscopy. Pyroptosis pathways were analyzed using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction, Western blot, and co-immunoprecipitation. Results Combined morphological, histopathological, and biochemical analyses confirmed that PPARα activation protects against CLI. Compared with LCA treatment alone, PPARα activation significantly attenuated the elevation of serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), the increased TUNEL-positive cells, and the formation of hepatocyte membrane pores. Mechanistically, PPARα activation suppressed both NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome-mediated pyroptosis and apoptosis protease-activating factor-1 (APAF-1)/CASPASE-3/GSDME-mediated pyroptosis. Furthermore, PPARα agonist pretreatment inhibited activation of the nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) and forkhead box O1 (FOXO1) signaling pathways. Conclusions PPARα protects against LCA-induced CLI by inhibiting both NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated pyroptosis associated with NF-κB and APAF-1/CASPASE-3/GSDME-mediated pyroptosis associated with the FOXO1 signaling pathway.

Objective: To explore the relationship between life skills, psychological resilience and subjective well-being among primary and secondary school students, so as to provide evidence for targeted adolescent mental health education. Methods: From September to November, 2025, a total of 5 831 primary and secondary school students from five cities (Beijing, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Chongqing, Urumqi) were selected by convenience sampling. The Adolescent Subjective Well being Scale, School based Adolescents Life Skills Scale, and Adolescent Psychological Resilience Scale were used for investigation. Data were analyzed using t-tests, one way ANOVA, and linear regression. Results: The total mean score of students subjective well being was (5.46± 0.91) ; the total mean score of life skills was (3.69±0.64); the total mean score of psychological resilience was (3.66±0.69). Statistically significant differences in subjective well being scores were found among students grouped by gender, grade, school stage, residential city, living with parents or living with siblings ( t/F =4.14, 53.92, 14.53, 49.99, 13.49, 2.18, all P <0.01). Stratified regression analyses were performed by gender (adjusting for school stage, residential city and living arrangement) and by school stage (adjusting for gender, residential city and living arrangement), the regression results indicated that life skills of boys, girls, primary school students and junior high school students( β =0.54, 0.53, 0.50, 0.57) and their psychological resilience ( β = 0.56 , 0.60, 0.56, 0.60) were positively associated with subjective well being (all P <0.01). Conclusions Life skills and psychological resilience may be important protective factors for subjective well being among primary and secondary school students. School based mental health education should emphasize life skills training and resilience building to promote students subjective well being.

Aim To investigate the protective effect of Shengmai Yin on myocardial ischemia/reperfusion in-jury(MI/RI)in vitro and in vivo and to unravel the underlying mechanism.Methods SD rats were divid-ed into the sham group,model group,and Shengmai Yin group(SM).Rat MI/RI model was established.Cardiac function,infarct area,pathological changes,cardiomyocyte apoptosis,macrophage infiltration,and serum cTnT and CK-MB levels were measured.The mRNA and protein expressions of Calpain-1 and Cal-pain-2 were assessed.The hypoxia/reoxygenation(H/R)model was constructed in H9c2 cells.The active ingredients of Shengmai Yin were screened using net-work pharmacology and verified by CCK-8.In the car-diomyocytes H/R model,Fluo-4 AM staining was used to detect the changes of Ca2+levels.Results Com-pared with model group,LVEF and LVFS of Shengmai Yin-treated rats increased,myocardial infarction area was reduced,while myocardial tissue injury was allevi-ated.Myocardial apoptosis rate and the number of macrophages were reduced.Similarly,cTnT and CK-MB levels decreased.In addition,the expression lev-els of Calpain-1 and Calpain-2 mRNA and protein de-creased in the SM treatment group.Under the H/R model,all the active ingredients of Shengmai decoction had protective effects on cardiomyocytes,and the treat-ment could reduce the level of Ca2+in cardiomyocytes.Conclusions Shengmai Yin has protective effects on MI/RI in rats.This effect may be related to the de-crease in Ca2+levels,as well as Calpain-1 and Calap-in-2 mRNA and protein expression.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of telitacicept in the treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) .Methods:The clinical data of 25 SLE patients who received standard therapy combined with telitacicept at the Department of Dermatology, Xiangya Second Hospital, Central South University, from 2021 to 2024 were retrospectively collected. Baseline demographic and clinical characteristics were analyzed. Changes in skin lesions, joint pain symptoms, complete blood count, and biochemical parameters at 4, 12, and 24 weeks of treatment were compared with baseline (week 0). The Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to compare complement C3 and C4 levels before and after treatment, and univariate logistic regression analysis was performed to explore factors influencing the efficacy of telitacicept.Results:Among the 25 SLE patients, 3 were male (12.0%) and 22 were female (88.0%). Based on the SLE Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI) -2000 scores, 8 patients were mild, 13 were moderate, and 4 were severe. Of the 11 SLE patients with rashes before treatment, 6 achieved complete remission at 12 weeks. Among the 7 patients with joint pain before treatment, 4 experienced symptom resolution at 24 weeks. The proportion of patients with leukopenia at baseline and at 4, 12, and 24 weeks was 10/25 (40.0%), 0/24 (0), 1/22 (4.5%), and 2/19 (10.5%), respectively. The proportion of patients with thrombocytopenia was 6/25 (24.0%), 3/24 (12.5%), 1/22 (4.5%), and 1/19 (5.3%), respectively, and the proportion of patients with anemia was 7/25 (28.0%), 3/24 (12.5%), 1/22 (4.5%), and 1/19 (5.3%), respectively. At baseline, 11 out of 25 patients (44.0%) had proteinuria. At 12 weeks, the urinary protein quantification level (0.4 [0, 0.6] g/L) was significantly lower than at baseline (0.9 [0.8, 1.2] g/L). The SLE responder index-4 (SRI4) response rates at 4, 12, and 24 weeks were 14/18, 15/17, and 12/14, respectively. Complement C3 and C4 levels were significantly higher at 4, 12, and 24 weeks compared to baseline (all P < 0.001). Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that age, disease duration, glucocorticoid dosage, baseline complement C4 levels, antinuclear antibody titer, and SLEDAI-2K score did not significantly affect the efficacy of telitacicept (SRI4 response rate at 12 weeks) (all P > 0.05). No serious adverse reactions related to telitacicept were observed in patients. Conclusions:Telitacicept improved skin lesions, complement C3 and C4 levels, and anti-double-stranded DNA antibody levels in SLE patients. No association was found between the efficacy of telitacicept and baseline SLEDAI-2K scores, antinuclear antibody titers, or complement C4 levels, suggesting that telitacicept is an effective and safe treatment for SLE patients.

Objective:This study aimed was to analyze the disease progression of postoperative recurrence/me-tastasis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma(PDAC)and provide clinical evidence for evaluating the difference in prog-nosis between site and pattern of recurrence/metastasis.Methods:The clinical data of 167 patients with PDAC who underwent pancreatectomy in Panjin Liao-Oil Gem Flower Hospital from January 2011 to June 2019 were retrospec-tively analyzed.Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox-regression analyses were applied to assess survival outcomes.Results:In this study,96 patients(57.5%)recurred within 12 months after surgery,and the median recurrence time was 10.9 months.Compared to patients without recurrence,patients with recurrence/metastasis had higher baseline CA19-9>100 IU/mL and were treated more often with neoadjuvant chemotherapy(P<0.05).In the no recurrence group,patients had histopathological analyses yielded lower less poorly differentiated tumors,less positive margin,less pT3+4 stages and pN1+2 stages(P<0.05).In a multivariate Cox regression analysis,receipt of neoadjuvant chemotherapy,poor tumor differ-entiation and positive margin were independent predictors for recurrence/metastasis within 12 months after surgery(P<0.05).Neoadjuvant treated patients had less pT1+2 stages(P=0.015),a lower lymph node ratio,less perineural invasion,less positive margin,and were less likely to be treated with adjuvant chemotherapy compared to upfront surgery treated patients(P<0.05).Recurrence/metastasis rates were higher in the neoadjuvant treated cohort versus the upfront surgery cohort(P=0.014).There was no statistical difference in the recurrence/metastasis rate distribution between neoadjuvant therapy and upfront surgery,and neoadjuvant therapy exhibited no significant impact on recurrence/metastasis patterns in PDAC(P>0.05).The overall survival period of patients without recurrence/metastasis within 12 months was signifi-cantly longer than that of patients with recurrence/metastasis after PDAC resection(P<0.001).Conclusion:The varying site recurrence/metastasis rates and time to recurrence/metastasis,underline the inherent heterogeneity of PDAC and the specific interactions in the tumor microenvironments at the recurrence/metastasis sites.Further research is essential to establish optimal personalized treatment strategies for patients with recurrent PDAC.

Objective:To analyze the independent risk factors for colorectal serrated adenomas to develop heterogeneous hyperplasia or carcinoma,to construct a clinical prediction model and to evaluate and validate it.Methods:The clinical data characteristics of 737 patients with colorectal serrated adenomas who underwent electronic colonoscopy in the Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Unit of the Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University were retrospectively analyzed,and they were randomly divided into the training set and the validation set with 515 and 222 cases,respectively,using R software(7∶3),and were classified into the group with no neoplasia according to their histological characteristics The independent risk factors were screened by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses and included in the R software,and the predictive model was evaluated using the"RMS"package with column-line plots,using the subjects'work characteristic curves,calibration curves,and decision curves,and then validated using the data from the validation set.Results:1.The incidence of heterogeneous hyperplasia and carcinoma in colorectal serrated adenomas in this study was 31.1％and 1.1％,respectively,and multifactorial logistic regression analysis showed that Age,diameter,and morphology were independent risk factors for the occurrence of heterogeneous hyperplasia or carcinoma in colorectal SA;2.The three independent risk factors of age,diameter,and morphology were applied to establish a column-line diagram,and the model was verified as having clinical predictive value for the occurrence of heterogeneous hyperplasia and carcinoma in serrated adenomas.Conclusions:In this study,age,diameter,and morphology were concluded to be the independent risk factors for the development of heterogeneous hyperplasia and carcinoma in colorectal serrated adenomas,and the column chart constructed on the basis of these factors had clinical predictive value.

Objective:To explore the role and mechanism of intestinal endotoxemia in the development of hepatopulmonary syndrome in rats.Methods:Rats were randomly divided into Experimental Group(N=10)and Control Group(N=10),and the rat model of Hepatopulmonary Syndrome was established by common bile duct ligation(CBD),and the contents of endotoxin,TNF-α and IL-6 were measured.Rat lung microvascular endothelial cells were isolated and cultured in vitro.Endotoxin induced the activation and proliferation of these cells,and the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 were detected.Results:The level of endotoxin in rats with hepatopulmonary syndrome was significantly elevated,which induced the production of TNF-α and IL-6,causing pulmonary vasodilation and hypoxemia.Conclusions:Intestinal endotoxemia plays an important role in the development of Hepatopulmonary Syndrome,and its possible mechanism is to induce pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells to produce a variety of inflammatory cytokines and to promote the development of pulmonary vasodilation and Hepatopulmonary Syndrome.It provides key experimental evidence and potential targets for the prevention and treatment strategies of hepatopulmonary syndrome.

Objective To investigate the clinical effects of different bone graft materials in internal fixation surgery for Schatzker type Ⅱ tibial plateau fracture(TPF).Methods A total of 108 patients with Schatzker type Ⅱ TPF in Lianyungang Municipal Oriental Hospital were selected and randomly assigned to the allogeneic cancellous bone and the artificial bone groups,with 54 cases in each group.The perioperative indicators,four coagulation items[thrombin time(TT),fibrinogen(FIB),activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT),prothrombin time(PT)],bone metabolic factors[bone gla protein(BGP),alkaline phosphatase(ALP),precollagen type Ⅰ N-terminal peptide(PINP)],knee motion,and numerical rating scale(NRS)score before and after operation,as well as complications,prognosis,bone graft stability were compared in the two groups.Results The hospital stay and fracture healing time in the artificial bone group were shorter than those in the allogeneic cancellous bone group(P<0.05).On the 7th day after surgery,the artificial bone group had longer peripheral blood APTT,TT and PT than the allogeneic cancellous bone group,and lower FIB level than the allogeneic cancellous bone group(P<0.05).The serum ALP,BGP and PINP levels 3 months after surgery in the two groups were higher than those before surgery(P<0.05).At 3 months after surgery,the ranges of knee extension and flexion in the artificial bone group were greater than those in the allogeneic cancellous bone group(P<0.05),and the NRS score was lower than that in the allogeneic cancellous bone group(P<0.05).The incidence of complications in the artificial bone group was lower than that in the allogeneic cancellous bone group(P<0.05).The excellent and good rate of knee joint function recovery 6 months after surgery in the artificial bone group was higher than that in the allogeneic cancellous bone group(P<0.05).The overall collapse height of the tibial lateral condylar articular surface,overall increase of lateral compartment angle,and overall loss height of lateral compartment 12 months after surgery in the artificial bone group were lower than those in the allogeneic cancellous bone group(P<0.05).Conclusion Compared with allogeneic cancellous bone,the use of artificial bone as the graft material during internal fixation in patients with Schatzker type Ⅱ TPF can more effectively ameliorate the postoperative coagulation status,reduce the incidence of complications,and enhance the graft stability,which is conducive to better prognosis.
