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.

Rare tumors pose significant challenges to clinical research, diagnosis, and therapy due to their low incidence, high molecular heterogeneity, and the lack of preclinical models.Conventional patient-derived cell lines and patient-derived tumor xenografts have significant limitations in recapitulating the characteristics of rare tumors. As an emerging in vitro biological model, organoids preserve the molecular characteristics of original tumors and possess high biological relevance, efficient amplification capabilities, and potential for personalized medicine applications. They have currently been applied in the research of various rare tumors. This review summarizes current research on organoid models of rare tumors derived from different tissue origins, and outlines current challenges and future development directions.

Objective To analyze the predictive value of microRNA-34a-5p(miR-34a-5p)expression in pancreatic cancer tissue on postoperative poor prognosis.Methods The surgically resected pancreatic cancer tissues and normal tissues adjacent to cancer from 123 patients with pancreatic cancer were collected to detect the expression of miR-34a-5p.The expression of miR-34a-5p in pancreatic cancer tissues for patients with different clinicopathological characteristics were compared.The patients were divided into the poor prognosis group and the good prognosis group according to their prognosis,and the clinical data of patients between the two groups was compared.The risk factors of poor prognosis for patients with pancreatic cancer were analyzed by Cox regression model,and the predictive value of miR-34a-5p expression in pancreatic cancer tissues on poor prognosis of patients was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results The expression of miR-34a-5p in pancreatic cancer tissues was lower than that in normal tissues adjacent to cancer(P<0.05).There were statistically significant differences in the expression of miR-34a-5p in pancreatic cancer tissues of patients with different differentiation degrees,TNM stages,and lymph node metastasis(P<0.05).The proportions of low differentiation,TNM stage for stage Ⅲ,lymph node metastasis and incisal margin of R1,and levels of carbohydrate antigen 199(CA199),neutrophils/lymphocytes ratio(NLR)and platelet/lymphocyte ratio(PLR)for patients in the poor prognosis group were higher than those in the good prognosis group(P<0.05),while miR-34a-5p expression was lower than that in the good prognosis group(P<0.05).Cox regression analysis showed that low differentiation,TNM stage for stage Ⅲ,lymph node metastasis,incisal margin of R1,decreased expression of miR-34a-5p and increased levels of CA199,NLR and PLR were risk factors of poor prognosis for patients with pancreatic cancer(P<0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that the optimal cut-off value of miR-34a-5p expression in pancreatic cancer tissue for predicting poor prognosis of patients was 0.48,the sensitivity was 78.82%,the specificity was 89.47%and the area under the curve was 0.855,with good predictive value.Conclusion The expression of miR-34a-5p in pancreatic cancer tissue is lower than that in normal tissue adjacent to cancer,and its expression is related to the differentiation degree,TNM stage and lymph node metastasis,which is also a risk factor and predictor of poor prognosis for patients with pancreatic cancer.

Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is an inherited disease caused by a deficiency of the enzyme arylsulfatase A (ARSA). Lentivirus-modified autologous hematopoietic stem cell gene therapy (HSCGT) has recently been approved for clinical use in pre and early symptomatic children with MLD to increase ARSA activity. Unfortunately, this advanced therapy is not available for most patients with MLD who have progressed to more advanced symptomatic stages at diagnosis. Patients with late-onset juvenile MLD typically present with a slower neurological progression of symptoms and represent a significant burden to the economy and healthcare system, whereas those with early onset infantile MLD die within a few years of symptom onset. We conducted a pilot study to determine the safety and benefit of HSCGT in patients with postsymptomatic juvenile MLD and report preliminary results. The safety profile of HSCGT was favorable in this long-term follow-up over 9 years. The most common adverse events (AEs) within 2 months of HSCGT were related to busulfan conditioning, and all AEs resolved. No HSCGT-related AEs and no evidence of distorted hematopoietic differentiation during long-term follow-up for up to 9.6 years. Importantly, to date, patients have maintained remarkably improved ARSA activity with a stable disease state, including increased Functional Independence Measure (FIM) score and decreased magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) lesion score. This long-term follow-up pilot study suggests that HSCGT is safe and provides clinical benefit to patients with postsymptomatic juvenile MLD.

The endoplasmic reticulum is an important organelle responsible for the synthesis,folding and processing of proteins.When the endoplasmic reticulum protein folding ability is affect-ed,internal unfolded proteins or misfolded proteins accumulate in the endoplasmic reticulum accumulation,leading to endoplasmic reticulum structural dysfunction resulting in endoplasmic reticu-lum stress.Autophagy is the process by which cells selectively remove stress endoplasmic reticulum and error proteins.Under stress,the endoplasmic reticulum can maintain normal physiolog-ical functions through unfolded protein responses and autophagy.Postmenopausal osteoporosis is mainly due to an imbalance be-tween bone resorption by osteoclasts and bone formation by oste-oblasts.Endoplasmic reticulum stress and autophagy both modu-late bone cells status with consequences for bone homeostasis.This article provides a review of the progress of research on en-doplasmic reticulum stress and autophagy interaction in the path-ogenesis of postmenopausal osteoporosis.

Turning to critical illness is a common stage of various diseases and injuries before death. Patients usually have complex health conditions, while the treatment process involves a wide range of content, along with high requirements for doctor′s professionalism and multi-specialty teamwork, as well as a great demand for time-sensitive treatments. However, this is not matched with critical care professionals and the current state of medical care in China. Telemedicine, which shortens the distance of medical professionals and the gap of disease diagnosis and treatments in various regions through electronic information, can effectively solve the current problem. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a standardized, high-quality visualization telemedicine round system .Therefore, experts have been organized to search domestic and foreign literature on telemedicine round for critically ill patients and to form this consensus based on clinical experiences so as to further improve the level of critical care treatments in regions.
