Objective:
To explore the experiences of obesity among junior high school students, and reveal its core themes and essential features, so as to provide evidence for health promotion.
Methods:
From March to August 2025, semi structured in depth interviews were conducted with 22 obese junior high school students (15 boys,7 girls) aged 13-16 years from two junior high schools in Beijing and one junior high school in Shenyang.Each interview lasted about 40 minutes, and the outline of the interview mainly involved three dimensions: obesity experience, obesity life experience, suggestions and future expectations. Data were analyzed using Moustakas phenomenological method.
Results:
A total of 4 core themes and 13 sub themes were identified: health experiences (external discipline, health conflicts, perceptual tension), exercise experiences (restricted activity, weight loss expectations, psychological catharsis, physical education test pressure), emotional experiences (appearance anxiety, self soothing, generalized impact), and social experiences (social devaluation, external support, covert suppression).
Conclusions
Obesity is a complex experience co-constructed by body awareness, physiological indicators, and sociocultural factors. Interventions should enhance students’ body awareness, facilitate a shift from external discipline to internal motivation, and form a collaborative health promotion pathway involving families, schools, and society.

To investigate the genetic relatedness between carbapenem-resistant A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data from patients screened for carbapenem-resistant Among 12 878 patients screened for CRE, 60 (0.47%) were identified with intestinal CRKP colonization. Of these, 6 (10.0%) developed bloodstream infections, with an all-cause mortality rate of 66.7% (4/6) during hospitalization. The predominant strain type among paired isolates was ST11-KL64 producing KPC-2, accounting for 91.7%(11/12) of cases. Except for one patient(with a categorical agreement of 82.6%), colonizing and bloodstream isolates from the same patient showed complete agreement (100% categorical agreement) in antimicrobial susceptibility profiles for all antibiotics except tigecycline. Intraclass correlation coefficients for biofilm formation and siderophore production were both > 0.75 of all paired strains, indicating high phenotypic consistency. Except for one patient, core genome single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis and phylogenetic reconstruction revealed high genetic homology between colonizing and bloodstream isolates from the same patient (SNP difference < 10). Clonal relatedness was also observed among colonizing strains from different departments (SNP difference < 120). Although the intestinal colonization rate of CRKP is low, it poses a high mortality risk once bloodstream infection occurs. The high consistency in antimicrobial resistance profiles, biofilm formation, siderophore production, and genomic homology between colonizing and bloodstream isolates suggests that intestinal colonization is the direct source of subsequent invasive infection. Enhanced early screening, dynamic monitoring, risk-stratified prevention, and optimized intervention strategies are recommended to reduce the risk of CRKP infection and mortality.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of Yifei Jianpi prescription on the of signal transducer and activator of transcription protein 1 (STAT1)/interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) signaling pathway in a pneumonia model induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and to explore the mechanism of Yifei Jianpi prescription in improving lung immune and inflammatory responses. MethodsSixty male SPF SD rats were used in this study. Ten rats were randomly assigned to the normal control group, and the remaining 50 were instilled with LPS in the trachea to establish a pneumonia model. After successful modeling, the rats were randomly divided into the model group, dexamethasone group (0.5 mg·kg-1), and Yifei Jianpi prescription high-dose (12 mg·kg-1), medium-dose (6 mg·kg-1), and low-dose (3 mg·kg-1) groups, with 10 rats in each group. Treatment was administered once daily, and the normal control and model groups received the same volume of normal saline. After 14 days, flow cytometry was used to detect the classification of whole blood lymphocytes. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to measure serum levels of immunoglobulin G (IgG), immunoglobulin A (IgA), immunoglobulin M (IgM), and the content of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-8 (IL-8), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and interleukin-10 (IL-10) in alveolar lavage fluid (BALF). Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to observe lung tissue pathology and score the damage. Thymus weight, spleen weight, and wet-to-dry weight ratio (W/D) were recorded. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) was used to detect the mRNA expression of STAT1, IRF3, IL-6, and interferon-alpha (IFN-α) in lung tissues, while Western blot was performed to assess the protein expression of STAT1, IRF3, IL-6, and IFN-α. ResultsCompared with the normal control group, the model group showed significantly increased proportion of B lymphocytes in peripheral blood, decreased proportions of NK cells and CD4+/CD8+ (P<0.05, P<0.01), decreased serum levels of IgG and IgA, significantly increased IgM levels (P<0.01), significantly elevated content of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-8 in BALF, and significantly decreased IL-10 levels (P<0.01). Lung tissue damage was evident, with significant increases in thymus and spleen weights and a higher W/D ratio (P<0.01). The mRNA and protein expression of STAT1, IRF3, IFN-α, and IL-6 in lung tissues was significantly upregulated (P<0.05,P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the Yifei Jianpi prescription groups showed significantly reduced proportions of B lymphocytes in peripheral blood, increased proportions of NK cells and CD4+/CD8+ ratios (P<0.05, P<0.01), significantly increased serum levels of IgG and IgA, significantly decreased IgM levels (P<0.05, P<0.01), significantly reduced levels of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-8 in BALF, and significantly increased IL-10 levels (P<0.01). Lung tissue damage was alleviated, thymus and spleen weights were significantly reduced, and the W/D ratio was markedly decreased (P<0.01). The mRNA and protein expression of STAT1, IRF3, IFN-α, and IL-6 in lung tissues was significantly downregulated (P<0.05, P<0.01). ConclusionYifei Jianpi prescription can alleviate lung tissue damage and improve immune and inflammatory responses in LPS-induced pneumonia rats. The mechanism may be related to the inhibition of STAT1/IRF3 signaling pathway activation.
