Objective: To explore the nonlinear dynamic effects of social capital, adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and depressive symptoms on suicidal behavior among vocational high school students, so as to provide theoretical basis and practical references for formulating suicide prevention strategies. Methods: A convenience sampling method was employed to include 668 students from a vocational high school from Wuhan in March 2023. Social capital was used as the asymmetry variable, while ACEs and depressive symptoms were used as bifurcation variables, a cusp catastrophe model was constructed to analyze the nonlinear changes in suicidal behavior among vocational high school students, and its fit was compared with linear and Logistic regression models. Results: Among students in the health vocational high school in Wuhan, only suicidal ideation accounted for 8.5%, only suicide attempt for 18.6%, neither accounted for 31.9%, and both for 41.0%. Gender, left behind experience, family economic status, parental parenting styles, depressive symptoms, social capital, and ACEs were all related factors influencing suicidal behavior among vocational high school students ( χ 2/H=19.03, 13.33, 21.11, 46.70, 144.38, 24.61, 118.77, all P <0.05). Violin plots showed a bimodal distribution of suicidal behavior, indicating nonlinear variation characteristics. The cusp catastrophe model results showed that social capital was negatively correlated with suicidal behavior, but the relationship was bifurcated by ACEs ( α social capital = -0.006 , β ACEs =0.075) and depressive symptoms ( α social capital =-0.013, β depressive =0.028) (all P <0.05). When both ACEs and depressive symptoms coexisted, the impact of ACEs was stronger ( β ACEs =0.077, β depressive =0.014) (both P <0.05). The cusp catastrophe model fitted ( R 2=0.886, 0.881, 0.882) better than the linear ( R 2=0.258, 0.219, 0.258) and Logistic regression models ( R 2= 0.242, 0.211 , 0.176). Gender stratified analysis results showed that bifurcation effect of ACEs was stronger in males than in females( β boys =0.224, β girls =0.086); in females, both ACEs and depressive symptoms had a bifurcation effect, with the former showing a stronger effect ( β ACEs =0.062, β depressive =0.015) (all P <0.05). Conclusions Suicidal behavior among vocational high school students exhibits nonlinear characteristics. Improving social capital to reducing ACEs and depressive symptoms may contribute to decreasing adolescent suicidal behaviors.

BACKGROUND:Plate fixation is the mainstream method for the surgical treatment of distal femoral fractures.The intramedullary nailing has the advantages of minimally invasive,such as less soft tissue injury and bone blood supply destruction.At the same time,it is a central fixation and has better biomechanical effect.Therefore,retrograde intramedullary nailing has become another option for the internal fixation of distal femoral fractures.OBJECTIVE:The biomechanical characteristics of new retrograde intramedullary nail on lateral femur condyle,common femoral retrograde intramedullary nail,and lateral femur condyle anatomical locking plate for the treatment of A2-type distal femoral fractures were compared using finite element analysis,and the advantages of new retrograde intramedullary nail on lateral femur condyle was studied.METHODS:A new retrograde intramedullary nail on lateral femur condyle was designed,which was inserted into the bone cortex in front of the insertion point of the lateral collateral ligament of the lateral femoral condyle.A CT scan was performed on the lower limb bone of a male volunteer,and a three-dimensional model of the femur was established.The model was then segmented to create a three-dimensional model of a femoral distal A2-type fracture,The three-dimensional models of small(small group),standard type retrograde intramedullary nail on the lateral femoral condyle(standard group),common retrograde intramedullary needle(common group),and lateral femur condyle anatomical locking plate(plate group)were established respectively.The axial stresses of 600,1 800 N and the torsional load of 4 000,8 000 N·mm were applied to the models,and the displacement and stress of femur and the displacement,stress and shear force of internal fixators were observed in each group.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)When subjected to axial load of 600 and 1 800 N,the femoral peak displacement,the femoral peak stress,and the peak stress of interal fixation in the standard group were the lowest among the four groups.(2)When subjected to torsional load of 4 000 and 8 000 N·mm,the femoral peak displacement and peak displacement of the internal fixation in the standard group were the lowest among the four groups.(3)Compared with femoral lateral condylar locking plate and common retrograde intramedullary needle,the new retrograde intramedullary needle on lateral femur condyle has mechanical advantages of reducing stress concentration and decreasing the risk of internal fixation failure.

Objective: To investigate the incidence and influencing factors of new onset suicidal behaviors among junior and senior high school students, so as to provide evidence for early warning and intervention. Methods: Using a cluster sampling method, baseline data were collected from September to November 2023 among 2 379 adolescents selected from 2 junior high schools, 2 general senior high schools and 2 vocational senior high schools in Wuhan, Hubei Province, with follow up carried out from September to November 2024. Data were collected using the School Adaptation Scale, the Essential Resilience Scale, the Personal Social Support Scale, the Adverse Childhood Experiences Questionnaire, the Adolescent Life Events Scale, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale, and the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors influencing new onset suicidal behavior among junior and senior high school students. Results: Among junior and senior high school students without suicide risk at baseline, 53.55% remained stable risk free during follow up, while 13.28% developed new suicidal behavior during follow up, of which suicidal ideation, suicide plan and suicide attempts accounted for 11.69%, 8.83% and 6.52%, respectively. Multivariate Logistic regression revealed that increased depressive symptoms at follow up elevated the risk of overall new onset suicidal behaviors ( OR =4.14), ideation ( OR = 4.59), plans ( OR =4.24), and attempts ( OR =4.09); poor sleep quality also increased the risk of overall new onset suicidal behaviors ( OR =2.23), plans ( OR =2.03), and attempts ( OR =2.65) (all P <0.05). Non boarding junior and senior high school students had lower risks of overall new onset suicidal behaviors and ideation ( OR=0.70 and 0.49, respectively); secondary school students with academic performance ranking in the top 20%-30% of their class had a lower risk of new onset ideation ( OR =0.27); and those whose place of origin was outside the city had a lower risk of new onset plans ( OR =0.49) (all P <0.05). Conclusions New onset suicidal behaviors among junior and senior high school students exhibit dynamic and stage specific differences. Depressive symptoms serve as a common core risk factor across all stages, whereas sleep quality, academic performance, boarding status, and place of origin exert differential influences at distinct stages.

Objective To develop a machine learning-based risk prediction model for postoperative acute kidney injury(AKI)and a model for mortality in obese patients admitted to intensive care unit(ICU)in order to improve early warning and prognostic evaluation to support clinical decision-making.Methods Data of obese postoperative ICU patients were retrospectively retrieved from the MIMIC-Ⅳ and eICU databases for statistical analysis.Ultimately,2 520 patients(670 from MIMIC-Ⅳ and 1 850 from eICU databases)were included to build the risk prediction models for AKI and mortality.The data included demographic information,vital signs,laboratory findings,surgical types,comorbidities,and medication use.After data cleaning and preprocessing,Boruta feature selection was applied,followed by the construction of prediction models using 7 machine learning algorithms,that is,Gradient Boosting Machine(GBM),Generalized Linear Model(GLM),k-Nearest Neighbors(KNN),Na?ve Bayes(NB),Neural Network(NNET),Support Vector Machine(SVM),and XGBoost.Model performance was evaluated through cross-validation and external validation.Results In the risk prediction models of AKI,the SVM model achieved the highest AUC value of 0.80 in the testing set and 0.71 in the external validation test.For the risk prediction models of mortality,the GBM model outperformed others in the prediction,attaining an AUC value of 0.91 in the testing set.Conclusion Risk predictive models for postoperative AKI and mortality in obese ICU patients are successfully constructed,and are valuable tools for clinicians to optimize early intervention and improve clinical outcomes for the patients.

A novel analytical method was developed in this study by combining online solid phase extraction with ultra performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(Online SPE-UPLC-MS/MS)for simultaneous determination of 50 kinds of steroid hormones in surface water.Specifically,after high-speed centrifugation of 4 mL water samples,the supernatant was directly injected into an Oasis HLB online SPE column for enrichment and purification.Subsequently,the target compounds were transferred to the analytical column via valve switching for separation and analysis.The chromatographic separation was performed on a Thermo Acclaim RSLC C18 column(100 mm×2.1 mm,2.2 μm),using a mobile phase composed of 5 mmol/L ammonium fluoride aqueous solution and acetonitrile.Mass spectrometric detection was conducted in positive ion mode,utilizing multiple reaction monitoring(MRM)with quantification achieved by the internal standard method.The method validation demonstrated that the limits of detection(LOD)for the 50 kinds of steroid hormones ranged from 0.02 to 0.50 ng/L,while the limits of quantification(LOQ)were between 0.08 and 1.67 ng/L.The average recoveries in surface water samples at spiked concentrations of 5,20 and 200 ng/L were between 74.1％and 119％,with relative standard deviations(RSDs)of 0.2％to 9.9％.This method was applied to analyze 11 surface water samples collected from sites surrounding a pharmaceutical and chemical industrial park.A total of 44 kinds of steroid hormones were detected,with concentrations ranging from 0.11 to 88.6 ng/L,revealing the presence of hormone contamination in the environmental waters surrounding industrial areas.Compared with the traditional offline SPE methods,the proposed online SPE technique significantly reduced sample volume requirements and pretreatment time,while minimizing the loss of target compounds during the pretreatment process.Moreover,compared to reported online SPE techniques,this method achieved high-throughput analysis of multiple classes of steroid hormones,with lower detection limits and higher recoveries.Overall,this method provided rapid sample preparation,high sensitivity,and excellent stability,making it suitable for the direct analysis of trace steroid hormones in surface water.

BACKGROUND: Quantitative flow ratio (QFR) holds significant value in guiding drug-coated balloon (DCB) treatment and enhancing outcomes. However, the predictive capability of post-angioplasty QFR for long-term clinical events in patients with de novo lesions who receive DCB treatment remains uncertain. The aim of this study was to explore the potential significance of post-angioplasty QFR measurements in predicting clinical outcomes in patients underwent DCB treatment for de novo lesions. METHODS: Patients who underwent DCB-only intervention for de novo lesions were enrolled. QFR was conducted after DCB treatment. The patients were then categorized based on post-angioplasty QFR. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac events (MACE), encompassing all-cause death, cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, stroke, and target vessel revascularization. RESULTS: A total of 553 patients with 561 lesions were included. The median follow-up period was 505 days, during which 66 (11.8%) MACEs occurred. Based on post-procedural QFR grouping, there were 259 cases in the high QFR group (QFR > 0.93) and 302 cases in the low QFR group (QFR ≤ 0.93). Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed a significantly higher cumulative incidence of MACE in the low QFR group (log-rank P = 0.004). The multivariate Cox proportional hazards model demonstrated a significant inverse correlation between QFR and the occurrence of MACEs (HR = 0.522, 95%CI: 0.289-0.942, P = 0.031). Landmark analysis indicated that high QFR had a significant reducing effect on the cumulative incidence of MACEs within 1 year (log-rank P = 0.016) and 1-5 years (log-rank P = 0.026). CONCLUSIONS In patients who underwent DCB-only treatment for de novo lesions, higher post-procedural QFR values (> 0.93) were identified as an independent protective factor against adverse prognosis.

Ovarian tumor (OT) is the most lethal form of gynecologic malignancy, with minimal improvements in patient outcomes over the past several decades. Metastasis is the leading cause of ovarian cancer-related deaths, yet the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Psychological stress is known to activate the glucocorticoid receptor (NR3C1), a factor associated with poor prognosis in OT patients. However, the precise mechanisms linking NR3C1 signaling and metastasis have yet to be fully elucidated. In this study, we demonstrate that chronic restraint stress accelerates epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and metastasis in OT through an NR3C1-dependent mechanism involving nuclear protein 1 (NUPR1). Mechanistically, NR3C1 directly regulates the transcription of NUPR1, which in turn increases the expression of snail family transcriptional repressor 2 (SNAI2), a key driver of EMT. Clinically, elevated NR3C1 positively correlates with NUPR1 expression in OT patients, and both are positively associated with poorer prognosis. Overall, our study identified the NR3C1/NUPR1 axis as a critical regulatory pathway in psychological stress-induced OT metastasis, suggesting a potential therapeutic target for intervention in OT metastasis.

Loss-of-function variants in CSDE1 have been strongly linked to neuropsychiatric disorders, yet the precise role of CSDE1 in neurogenesis remains elusive. In this study, we demonstrate that knockout of Csde1 during cortical development in mice results in impaired neural progenitor proliferation, leading to abnormal cortical lamination and embryonic lethality. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that Csde1 upregulates the transcription of genes involved in the cell cycle network. Applying a dual thymidine-labelling approach, we further revealed prolonged cell cycle durations of neuronal progenitors in Csde1-knockout mice, with a notable extension of the G1 phase. Intersection with CLIP-seq data demonstrated that Csde1 binds to the 3' untranslated region (UTR) of mRNA transcripts encoding cell cycle genes. Particularly, we uncovered that Csde1 directly binds to the 3' UTR of mRNA transcripts encoding Cdk6, a pivotal gene in regulating the transition from the G1 to S phases of the cell cycle, thereby maintaining its stability. Collectively, this study elucidates Csde1 as a novel regulator of Cdk6, sheds new light on its critical roles in orchestrating brain development, and underscores how mutations in Csde1 may contribute to the pathogenesis of neuropsychiatric disorders.
