Objective: To explore the relationship between social jetlag and depressive symptoms in junior high school students, as well as the potential gender differences, so as to provide a reference for developing effective interventions for depressive symptoms and promoting adolescents mental health. Methods: In October 2024, a total of 3 516 students from grades 7 to 9 were recruited from 4 junior high schools in Chongqing Municipality using a combination of cluster sampling and convenience sampling. A questionnaire survey was conducted using the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) and the Munich Chronotype Questionnaire (MCTQ). Statistical analyses included the χ 2 test, binary Logistic regression analysis, and stratified Logistic regression analysis. Results: The detection rate of depressive symptoms among the junior high school students was 34.3%. The number of students with social jetlag >2 h was 714 (20.3%), >1-2 h was 1 455(41.4%), and ≤1 h was 1 347(38.3%). Results from the binary Logistic regression analysis showed that compared to the group with social jetlag ≤1 h, the risk of depressive symptoms in the group with social jetlag >2 h was higher ( OR=1.59, 95%CI=1.28-1.98, P <0.01). Gender stratified analysis revealed that among females, the risk of depressive symptoms was higher in the groups with social jetlag of >1-2 h and >2 h compared to the ≤1 h group ( OR = 1.34 and 2.05, 95% CI =1.03-1.75 and 1.48-2.83, both P <0.05). However, among males, the associations were not statistically significant ( OR =1.11 and 1.29, 95% CI =0.86-1.43 and 0.95-1.77, both P >0.05). Conclusions Social jetlag is positively associated with depressive symptoms in junior high school students, demonstrating a threshold effect and gender differences. The findings suggest that reducing social jetlag may decrease the risk of depressive symptoms in adolescents, and targeted intervention measures should be developed considering different gender characteristics.

Childhood simple obesity has become a significant public health issue in China. Modern medicine primarily relies on lifestyle interventions and often suffers from poor long-term compliance， while pharmacological options are limited and associated with potential adverse effects. Traditional Chinese Medicine （TCM） has a long history in the prevention and management of this condition， demonstrating eight distinct advantages， including systematic theoretical foundation， diversified therapeutic approaches， definite therapeutic efficacy， high safety profile， good patient compliance， comprehensive intervention strategies， emphasis on prevention， and stepwise treatment protocols. Additionally， TCM is characterized by six distinctive features： the use of natural medicinal substances， non-invasive external therapies， integration of medicinal dietetics， simple exercise regimens， precise syndrome differentiation， and diverse dosage forms. By combining internal and external treatments， TCM facilitates individualized regimen adjustment and holistic regulation， demonstrating remarkable effects in improving obesity-related metabolic indicators， regulating constitutional imbalance， and promoting healthy behaviors. However， challenges remain， such as inconsistent operational standards， insufficient high-quality clinical evidence， and a gap between basic research and clinical application. Future efforts should focus on accelerating the standardization of TCM diagnosis and treatment， conducting multicenter randomized controlled trials， and fostering interdisciplinary integration， so as to enhance the scientific validity and international recognition of TCM in the prevention and treatment of childhood obesity.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of Zuoguiwan on osteoclast activation induced by breast cancer and its mechanism. MethodsTo simulate breast cancer-induced osteoclastic bone metastasis， RAW264.7 cells were cultured in conditioned medium containing 50% supernatant of MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells. The dosages of Zuoguiwan used in the experiment were sera containing 5% and 10% Zuoguiwan. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase （TRAP） staining was used to detect osteoclast activation. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to measure Cathepsin K secretion from RAW264.7 cells. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （PCR） was used to detect the mRNA expression levels of osteocalcin （OCN） and bone sialoprotein （BSP）. Immunoprecipitation was employed to detect the interaction between Runt-related transcription factor 2 （Runx2） and core binding factor β subunit （CBF-β）. Western blot was used to assess the protein expression of Runx2， phosphorylated Runx2 （p-Runx2）， extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1/2 （ERK1/2）， p-ERK1/2， p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK）， p-p38 MAPK， and CBF-β. ResultsCompared with the blank group， the MDA-MB-231 cell supernatant group showed a significant increase in TRAP-positive cell counts and Cathepsin K secretion. Meanwhile， the expression levels of p-Runx2， Runx2-CBF-β interaction， BSP and OCN mRNA， p-p38 MAPK， and p-ERK1/2 proteins were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. Compared with the MDA-MB-231 cell supernatant group， Zuoguiwan-containing sera significantly reduced TRAP-positive cell counts and Cathepsin K secretion （P<0.01）， significantly increased p-Runx2， BSP and OCN mRNA expression， as well as p-p38 MAPK and p-ERK1/2 protein levels， and promoted the interaction between Runx2 and CBF-β （P<0.01）. No significant change in Runx2 expression was observed. Compared to the blank group， the BVD-523 group showed significantly lower expression of p-p38 MAPK and p-ERK1/2 proteins （P<0.01）. Compared with the BVD-523 group， both low and high concentration Zuoguiwan-containing sera groups showed significantly higher p-p38 MAPK expression （P<0.01）， and the high concentration Zuoguiwan group also exhibited a significant increase in p-ERK1/2 expression （P<0.01）， while no statistical difference was found in the low-dose group. ConclusionZuoguiwan inhibits osteoclast activation by inducing phosphorylation of the key transcriptional regulator Runx2 in intra-osteoclast bone formation， and this process is closely associated with the activation of the p38 MAPK/ERK signaling pathway.

Aim To explore the action mechanism of isoquercitrin(IQ)in ameliorating anxiety based on network pharmacology,cellular transcriptomics,molecu-lar docking and animal experiments.Methods The common targets of anxiety disorders and IQ were ob-tained by using relevant databases.The protein-protein interaction network,the biological function and signa-ling pathway enrichment analysis were conducted by u-sing the common targets.Primary hippocampal neurons were cultured in vitro,and corticosterone was added to induce neurons to establish a corticosterone injury mod-el.IQ treatment was added to the culture system,and transcriptomics was used to screen for differentially ex-pressed genes and enrich for differentially expressed pathways.Subsequently,the results were validated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR).Possible targets and signaling pathways for IQ treatment on anxiety were speculated and screened u-sing network pharmacology,transcriptomics and molec-ular docking.The anxiety rat model was constructed,and the anxiety state of rats was evaluated after IQ in-tervention,and the protein expression level of hippo-campus was detected to verify the relevant mechanism.Results Network pharmacology,cellular transcrip-tome,and molecular docking analyses revealed that the key mechanism of IQ for anxiety may be related to the BDKRB2/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.Animal exper-iments showed that IQ was effective in improving anxie-ty behaviour and learning memory ability in rats.IQ increased the movement distance and residence time in the central area of the open field,the time and number percentage of entries into the open arm in the elevated plus maze,and the spontaneous alternations score in the Y maze in rats,and significantly elevated protein expression of BDKRB2,PI3K,Akt and decreased pro-tein expression of NF-κB in the hippocampus.Conclu-sions Isoquercitrin can effectively treat anxiety,and the mechanism of action may be related to the regula-tion of BDKRB2/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway in hip-pocampus.

Objective To explore the effects of different concentrations of simvastatin on nerve regeneration after sciatic nerve injury.Methods Rats were randomly divided into the normal group,the control group,the low-dose group and the high-dose group,with 3 rats in each group.Except for the normal group,adult rat sciatic nerve crush injury models were established in the other groups.Rats in the normal group and the control group were orally administered with water,while those in the low-dose group and high-dose group were orally administered with 98%simvastatin at dosages of 4 mg/mL and 40 mg/mL,respectively.The sciatic nerve regeneration in rats was evaluated by sciatic function index(SFI),HE staining,luxol fast blue(LFB)staining and immunofluorescence staining,etc.Results The SFI of rats in the high-dose group 7 days and 14 days after surgery were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05);there was no significant difference in SFI of rats between the low-dose group and the control group 7 days and 14 days after surgery(P>0.05).HE staining and LFB staining results showed that compared with the control group,the number of neurons of rats in the high-dose group increased,the nerve fibers and myelin were clearer and denser,and the nerve function was significantly restored;while no significant improvement was observed in the sciatic nerve of rats in the low-dose group.The immunofluorescence staining results showed that compared with the control group,the immunofluorescence intensity in the high-dose group increased,while that in the low-dose group decreased,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion High-dose simvastatin can promote peripheral nerve regeneration by regulating the expression of M2 macrophages.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of combined cricopharyngeal myotomy (CPM) and autologous fat injection laryngoplasty (AFIL) in the management of dysphagia secondary to glossopharyngeal and vagal nerve injury.Methods:This retrospective cohort study collected the clinical data of 18 patients with persistent dysphagia due to glossopharyngeal and vagus nerve injuries, who underwent concurrent cricopharyngeal myotomy (CPM) and autologous fat injection laryngoplasty (AFIL) at the Department of Otolaryngology, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, from January 2017 to December 2024. Pre-and postoperative assessments included electronic flexible laryngoscope, the Chinese version of Swallow Quality-of-Life Questionnaire (CSWAL-QOL), videofluoroscopic swallowing study (VFSS), body weight changes, and nasogastric tube (NGT) removal status with routine follow-up. The comparison of swallowing function before and after surgery was conducted using paired samples t-test and χ2 test. Results:The study cohort comprised 10 male and 8 female patients, with ages ranging from 33 to 70 years (mean±SD: 53.8±10.5). All surgical procedures were completed successfully without complications. During the 6-to 24-month follow-up period, 10 of the 13 patients who were initially nasogastric tube-dependent achieved successful decannulation. Compared with preoperative values, postoperative measurements demonstrated statistically significant improvements across all parameters: mean body weight increased from (56.95±9.14) kg to (59.22±8.72) kg ( t=3.689 , P<0.01), CSWAL-QOL scores improved from 91.89±17.81 to 130.83±25.42 ( t=6.921 , P<0.01), while, both VFSS scales showed marked reductions (VFSS-SWAL: 6.78±1.40 to 3.39±1.61, t=-8.001, P<0.01; PAS: 6.56±1.15 to 2.94±1.26, t=-10.114, P<0.01). Conclusions:Combined CPM and AFIL represents an effective surgical approach for dysphagia following glossopharyngeal and vagal nerve injury, thereby demonstrating significant improvements in both swallowing function and quality of life.
