Objective: To explore the effects of sleep on subsequent day physical activity (PA) in children and adolescents, so as to provide a reference for refining PA intervention strategies and further investigating their underlying mechanisms. Methods: Through searching databases including Web of Science Core Collection, PubMed, EBSCOhost, ScienceDirect, Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang and VIP cross sectional, cohort and experimental studies on sleep and subsequent day PA among children and adolescents were identified, with the searching period spanning from database inception to June, 2025. Based on the characteristics of the included literature, two sleep variables[sleep duration (SD) and sleep efficiency (SE)] and three physical activity variables[moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA), light physical activity (LPA), and total physical activity (TPA)] were selected. The relationship between these two types of variables was analyzed for pooled effect sizes using Stata 17.0. Results: A total of 14 studies were included, with 64.3% published in 2018 or later, involving 11 361 children and adolescents from 17 countries. Meta analysis results showed that both SD ( ES=0.04, 95%CI =0.01-0.07) and SE ( ES=0.24, 95%CI =0.01-0.47) were positively correlated with subsequent day MVPA (both P <0.05). However, no statistically significant associations were found with LPA ( ES=-0.04, 95%CI =-0.13 to 0.06; ES=-0.02, 95%CI =-0.15 to 0.11) or TPA( ES=0.09, 95%CI =-0.02 to 0.20; ES=0.02, 95%CI = -0.03 to 0.06)(all P >0.05). Subgroup analysis revealed that in the "≤6 years" subgroup, SD and SE were positively correlated with TPA ( ES=0.22, 95%CI =0.09-0.35) and MVPA ( ES=1.19, 95%CI =1.06-1.32), respectively; in the "6-12 years" subgroup, SD was positively correlated with MVPA ( ES=0.05, 95%CI =0.02-0.08); in the "≥12 years" subgroup, SE was positively correlated with LPA ( ES=0.08, 95%CI =0.00-0.16), while SD was negatively correlated with LPA ( ES=-0.23, 95%CI = -0.31 to -0.16) (all P <0.05). Conclusion Adequate SD and good SE can effectively enhance subsequent day MVPA among children and adolescents, although these sleep effects vary by age group.

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase(G6PD)deficiency is one of the most common monogenic genetic diseases in the world.China is the high incidence area of this disease.G6PD heterozygote is the main form of G6PD deficiency in females,which belongs to X-linked incomplete dominant inheritance.Therefore,the enzyme activities of female heterozygotes vary widely,showing normal to mild to moderate enzyme activi-ties.There is no unified calibrators for G6PD enzymatic detection reagents commonly used in clinical practice,and the results of the same sample detected by different kits from different manufacturers are different,so there is a phenomenon of missed detection in clinical screening of female G6PD heterozygotes.Although G6PD gene detection can effectively improve the detection rate of female heterozygotes,its clinical application is lim-ited due to cost and other reasons.Therefore,the development of detection methods that can improve the de-tection rate of female heterozygotes and are suitable for large-scale screening and clinical application will be an urgent need to be solved in clinical practice.This article reviews the epidemiology of G6PD deficiency,genetic characteristics of female G6PD gene,clinical manifestations and detection methods of G6PD female heterozy-gotes.

Objective To investigate the mediating role of anxiety and depression in social sup-port and burnout among primary caregivers of stroke patients.Methods A convenience sampling method was employed to select 506 primary caregivers of stroke patients as research subjects.The Gen-eral Information Questionnaire,Caregiver Burnout Inventory for Stroke Patients,Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support,and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale were used for data col-lection.Results The total scores for caregiver burnout,social support,anxiety,and depression a-mong primarycaregivers of stroke patients were(72.83±14.32),(47.79±7.74),(10.49±3.00),and(10.45±3.06),respectively.Correlation analysis revealed a negative correlation between caregiver burnout and social support(r=-0.245,P＜0.001),and positive correlations with anxiety and depression(r=0.178,0.216,P＜0.001).Anxiety and depression partially media-ted the relationship between social support and caregiver burnout,accounting for 7.9％and 10.7％of the total effect,respectively.Conclusion Social support,anxiety,depression,and burnout are closely interrelated.Social support can directly or indirectly influence the occurrence of burnoutthrough anxiety and depression.Medical staff should pay attention to the anxiety and depression status of primary caregivers of stroke patients and enhance social support levels to reduce the incidence of burnout by alleviating anxiety and depression.

ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy and safety of cinobufagin tablets combined with thalidomide/dexamethasone （TD） regimen in the treatment of newly diagnosed multiple myeloma （NDMM） with phlegm and stasis obstruction. MethodsThe clinical data of 50 patients with NDMM of phlegm and stasis obstruction who were hospitalized at the Jiangsu Province Hospital of Chinese Medicine from June 1st， 2015 to July 31th， 2019 were retrospectively analyzed， and they were divided into a control group （bortezomib/dexamethasone-containing regimen， 27 cases） and an observation group （cinobufagin tablets combined with TD regimen， 23 cases）. The clinical efficacy and safety were compared between the two groups after two or three courses of treatment. The primary outcomes were clinical remission rate including overall response rate and deep remission rate， one-year and two-year overall survival rate， and adverse effects. The secondary outcomes were the proportion of plasma cells in bone marrow， hemoglobin， β2-microglobulin， lactate dehydrogenase， serum creatinine， blood urea nitrogen， bone pain score， and KPS functional status score （KPS score） before and after treatment. ResultsIn terms of clinical efficacy， there was no statistically significant difference （P＞0.05） in the overall response rate ［the observation group 69.57%（16/23） vs the control group 70.37% （19/27）］ and deep remission rate ［the observation group 56.52% （13/23） vs the control group 55.56% （15/27）］ between groups after the treatment. The one-year overall survival rates of the observation group and the control group were 90.9% and 92.4%， and the two-year overall survival rates were 81.8% and 80.9% respectively， with no statistically significant differences between groups （P＞0.05）. During the treatment， no renal function injury occurred in both groups. The incidence of peripheral nerve injury in the observation group was 8.70%， which was lower than 48.15% in the control group （P＜0.01）. After the treatment， the proportion of myeloma plasma cells， β2-microglobulin， serum creatinine level， and bone pain score decreased， while the hemoglobin level and KPS score increased in both groups （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared between groups after treatment， the bone pain score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group， while the KPS score was higher than that of the control group （P＜0.05）. ConclusionThe clinical efficacy of cinobufagin tablets combined with TD in the treatment of NDMM is equivalent to bortezomib/dexamethasone-containing regimen， but the former is more helpful in relieving the pain and improving the quality of life， and has better safety.

The clinical data of a patient with Klinefelter syndrome (KS) complicated by partial androgen insensitivity syndrome (PAIS) was retrospectively analyzed.The patient, a 2-month-and-22-day-old baby, was admitted to Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University due to abnormal external genitalia in October 2021.Upon birth, the patient exhibited abnormal external genitalia, manifested as clitoral hypertrophy.Hormonal examinations were consistent with those of peers, while chromosomal analysis revealed 47, XXY.Due to the severe undermasculinization, whole exome sequencing was conducted, indicating a heterozygous variant of the AR gene (c.1847G>A, p.Arg616His). The patient was diagnosed with PAIS, and her elder sister was diagnosed with complete androgen insensitivity syndrome.For further treatment, a multidisciplinary comprehensive evaluation is needed.This is a rare case of KS combined with PAIS, suggesting the possibility of AR gene mutations in KS children with severe undermasculinization.

Objective:To analyze the status quo of type D personality, intolerance of uncertainty and family support in first-episode stroke patients, and to explore the mediating role of family support between type D personality and intolerance of uncertainty in first-episode stroke patients, in order to provide reference for formulating relevant clinical intervention measures to promote the physical and mental health of first-episode stroke patients.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional investigation. A total of 300 patients with acute first-episode stroke who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria in the Department of Neurology of the General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University and the First People′s Hospital of Yinchuan from May 2023 to September 2023 were selected as the study objects by convenience sampling method. The general data questionnaire, Type D personality Scale-14, Family Caring Index Scale and the Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale were used to investigate them. Pearson correlation analysis was used to test the correlation between variables, and SPSS plug-in PROCESS 3.5 was used to test the mediation effect.Results:Finally, 300 questionnaires were effectively collected, including 228 males and 72 females. Patients aged ≥ 60 years old were the majority, accounting for 49.3% (148/300). The detection rate of type D personality in the first stroke patients was 37.3% (112/300), and the total score of Type D personality inventory, family support and intolerance of uncertainty of type D personality in the first stroke patients were (22.16 ± 9.95), (6.40 ± 2.23), (27.82 ± 7.93) points. The correlation analysis results showed that the intolerance of uncertainty of type D personality in the first stroke patients was positively correlated with type D personality scores ( r=0.675, P<0.001). There was a negative correlation with family support score ( r=-0.644, P<0.001). The results of mediating effect analysis showed that family support played a partial mediating role in the relationship between type D personality and intolerability of uncertainty in first-stroke patients, and the mediating effect accounted for 34.94% of the total effect. Conclusions:The mediating role of family support between type D personality and intolerability of uncertainty in first-stroke patients is established. In the future, the level of family support of patients can be continuously improved to reduce their intolerability of uncertainty, so as to promote the physical and mental health of patients and improve their quality of life.

Objective:To investigate the effects of Porphyromonas gingivalis derived outer membrane vesicles (Pg OMV) on osteoclast differentiation of macrophages and its underlying mechanisms. Methods:The morphology and the size distribution of Pg OMV were analyzed by transmission electron microscopy and nanoparticle tracing analysis, respectively. The osteoclast precursors were treated with 1, 3 and 10 mg/L Pg OMV (1, 3 and 10 mg/L OMV treatment group) or phosphate buffer solution (PBS)(control group). The formation of osteoclasts was analyzed by tartrate-resistant acid phosphase (TRAP) staining and F-actin staining and real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) were used to detect the expression of Fos and matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP9). Polymyxin B (PMB) was used to block lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and then Pg OMV was used to treat osteoclast precursor (PMB-OMV treatment group), and OMV treatment group was used as control. TRAP and F-actin staining were used to observe the formation of osteoclasts and actin rings. The effect of Pg OMV on the expression of Toll-like receptor (TLR) 2 and TLR4 in preosteoclasts was detected by Western blotting. The osteoclast precursors were pretreated with 10, 50, 100 and 200 μmol/L C29, an inhibitor of TLR2, and then treated with Pg OMV(OMV+10, 50, 100 and 200 μmol/L C29 treatment group) and OMV treatment group without C29 pretreatment was control. TRAP and F-actin staining were used to observe the formation of osteoclasts and actin rings. The osteoclast precursor cells were treated with OMV (OMV treatment group) and OMV incubated with PMB (PMB-OMV treatment group) and the expression of TLR2 in osteoclast precursor was detected by Western blotting.Results:Pg OMV showed classical vesicular structures, and the average particle size of Pg OMV were 179.2 nm. A large number of actin rings were observed in the 3 and 10 mg/L OMV treatment groups. The percentages of TRAP-positive osteoclast area in 3 mg/L OMV treatment group [(22.6±2.1)%] and 10 mg/L OMV treatment group [(32.0±2.3)%] were significantly increased compared with control group [(4.9±0.5)%] ( P<0.001). Compared with the control group (1.000±0.029), the mRNA relative expression of Fos in 3 mg/L OMV treatment group (1.491±0.114) and 10 mg/L OMV treatment group (1.726±0.254) was significantly increased ( P=0.013, P=0.001). Compared with the control group (1.007±0.148), the mRNA relative expression of MMP9 in the group of 10 mg/L OMV (2.232±0.097) was significantly increased ( P<0.001). Actin ring formation was less in PMB-OMV treatment groups than in OMV treatment groups. The proportion of TRAP-positive osteoclasts area [(14.8±3.8)%] in PMB-OMV treatment group was significantly lower than OMV treatment group [(31.5±6.7) %] ( P=0.004). The relative expression of TLR2 in OMV treatment group (1.359±0.134) was significantly higher than that in the control group (1.000±0.000) ( t=4.62, P=0.044). Compared with the OMV treatment group [(29.4±1.7)%], 50, 100 and 200 μmol/L C29 significantly decreased the formation of osteoclasts [(24.0±1.7)%, (18.5±2.1)%, (9.1±1.3) %] ( P=0.026, P<0.001, P<0.001). TLR2 protein expression in PMB-OMV group (0.780±0.046) was significantly lower than that in OMV group (1.000±0.000)( t=8.32, P=0.001). Conclusions:Pg OMV can promote osteoclast differentiation by carrying LPS, TLR2 plays an important role in Pg OMV mediated osteoclast differentiation.

Objective:To retrospectively analyze a pediatric case of X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets treated with Burosumab and improve clinicians′ awareness of the safety and effectiveness of the drug.Methods:Clinical data of the child were collected. Whole-exon genetic testing after parental consent confirmed X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets. During 18 months of Burosumab treatment, fasting blood phosphorus, alkaline phosphate, calcium, and calcium phosphate product were monitored every 11-14 days. Parathyroid hormone and 25 hydroxyvitamin D were checked every 2-6 weeks, while knee spacing, liver and kidney function, urinary calcium creatinine ratio, electrocardiogram were assessed every 3 months. Radiological imaging was performed every 6 months, with continuous follow-up of the child.Results:Whole-exon sequencing results showed a c. 1080_1081insCAATGTTA(p.T361Qfs*3) spontaneous heterozygous frameshift mutation in the PHEX gene in the child, which has not been reported previously. After the patient was treated with Burosumab for 18 months, the biochemical indexes were significantly improved, and the rickets score was reduced, without gingival abscess or other adverse events.Conclusion:The variant c. 1080_1081insCAATGTTA(p.T361Qfs*3) in the PHEX gene was identified as the cause of the patient′s condition. Burosumab, as a targeted therapeutic agent for X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets, showed significant treatment efficacy.

Objective:To explore the clinical and genetic characteristics of three children with Leguis syndrome.Methods:Three children suspected as Legius syndrome at the Henan Children′s Hospital for precocious puberty or short stature from June 6, 2019 to August 25, 2022 were selected as the study subjects. Clinical data of the children were collected. All children were subjected to whole exome sequencing, and candidate variants were verified by Sanger sequencing.Results:All of the children (including 2 females and 1 male, and aged 4 years and 6 months, 8 years, and 14 years and 8 months, respectively) had typical café de lait spots. Child 1 also had precocious puberty, and children 2 and 3 had short statures. Genetic testing revealed that all of them had harbored heterozygous variants of the SPRED1 gene, including c. 751C>T (p.Arg251Ter194) in child 1, c. 229A>T (p.Lys77Ter368) in child 2, and c. 1044_1046delinsC (p.R349fs *11) in child 3. Based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), the c. 751C>T (p.Arg251Ter194) variant was predicted to be likely pathogenic, whilst the other two were known pathogenic variants. Conclusion:All of the three children were diagnosed with Leguis syndrome due to variants of the SPRED1 gene, which had manifested as multiple café de lait spots in conjunct with precocious puberty or short statures.

Objective To analyze the influencing factors of poor anal function after laparoscopic intersphincteric resection(Lap-ISR)for extremely low rectal cancer,and to construct and verify a prediction model based on this model,in order to provide guidance for improving the anal function of patients with extremely low rectal cancer after Lap-ISR.Method A total of 127 patients with extremely low rectal cancer who underwent Lap-ISR in Taizhou People's Hospital from June 2020 to June 2022 were retrospectively selected.Patients were followed up for 12 months after surgery,and postoperative anal function was evaluated by the anal incontinence score(Wexner).According to Wexner score,the patients were divided into good anal function group(106 cases)and poor anal function group(21 cases).The clinical data of patients were collected and the risk factors affecting postoperative poor anal dysfunction were analyzed,and a Nomogram model was constructed to predict the risk of postoperative anal dysfunction in patients after Lap-ISR,and the receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)was drawn.The area under the curve(AUC)was used to analyze the predictive efficacy of the prediction model for poor anal dysfunction after Lap-ISR.Result The incidence of anal dysfunction after Lap-ISR in patients with extremely low rectal cancer was 16.54％(21/127).Univariate analysis showed that there was no significant difference in gender,age,body mass index,clinical stage,combined underlying diseases,operation time,intraoperative blood loss,anastomosis method,and the distance from the lower edge of the tumor to the dentate line between the two groups(P＞0.05).The proportion of tumor diameter≥5 cm,the proportion of neoadjuvant chemotherapy,the distance between anastomosis and anal verge＜2 cm,and the proportion of anastomotic leakage in the anal dysfunction group were higher than those in the good anal function group(P＜0.05).Cox multivariate regression analysis showed that tumor diameter≥5 cm(OR=5.124),neoadjuvant chemotherapy(OR=5.761)and anastomotic leakage(OR=6.881)were risk factors for postoperative anal function(P＜0.05).Wexner score of patients with tumor diameter ≥5 cm was higher than that of patients with tumor diameter＜5 cm,Wexner score of patients with neoadjuvant chemotherapy was higher than that of patients without neoadjuvant chemotherapy,and Wexner score of patients with anastomotic leakage was higher than that of patients without anastomotic leakage(P＜0.05).Internal validation of Bootstrap method showed that the C-index was 0.785(95％CI:0.692-0.851).The results of ROC curve showed that the sensitivity and specificity of the nomogram model in predicting postoperative poor anal function of patients were 85.70％and 88.70％,respectively,and the AUC was 0.895(95％CI:0.795-0.984).Conclusion Tumor diameter,neoadjuvant chemotherapy and anastomotic leakage are risk factors for poor anal function after Lap-ISR in patients with extremely low rectal cancer.The nomogram risk prediction model based on the above risk factors has a good risk efficiency in evaluating the risk of postoperative anal dysfunction in patients.
