The mental health management of laboratory animals is a critical factor in ensuring the reliability of scientific research data. However, due to the subtle nature of mental state alterations and the limitations of current assessment methods, the mental health of laboratory animals is often overlooked by researchers. Therefore, there is an urgent need to explore a new, objective, simple, and practical method for evaluating mental health. Stress, as a primary factor inducing alterations in the mental state of animals, can influence experimental results across multiple research fields through the neuroendocrine-immune network. This paper first elucidates the necessity of mental health management in laboratory animals from three perspectives: factors contributing to stress, neural mechanisms of stress, and research areas affected by stress. It highlights that excluding animals with abnormal mental states before experiments can enhance the efficiency and reproducibility of biomedical studies. Second, this paper briefly summarizes existing methods for assessing the health of laboratory animals, pointing out that approaches such as behavioral tests and metabolomics have many limitations in evaluating stress responses. Existing methods struggle to meet the demand for simple, objective, and non-invasive assessment methods in animal management. Therefore, this paper focuses on hair, a biological sample with the advantages of cumulative information and non-invasive collection, and systematically describes the theoretical basis and technological advances in using hair characteristics as indicators of stress responses from three perspectives: hair traits, the levels of substances in hair, and artificial intelligence (AI). It proposes and supports an innovative technical pathway that combines hair traits with AI-based image analysis, with the aim of offering an improved solution for non-invasive and objective stress assessment, while providing theoretical support for improving the health management system of laboratory animals.

ObjectiveTo compare the Children's Hepatic tumors International Collaboration （CHIC） and the new Chinese Children's Cancer Group （CCCG） hepatoblastoma （HB） risk stratification systems in terms of their prognostic prediction efficacy and chemotherapy guidance value for Chinese children with HB， aiming to identify the risk stratification system more suitable for Chinese HB patients. MethodsThis retrospective study analyzed the clinical data of 403 pediatric patients with HB aged ＜ 18 years who were initially diagnosed at The First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University between February 2010 and September 2023. The prognostic predictive efficacy and chemotherapy-guided value of the CHIC and CCCG risk stratification systems was compared. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 27.0. Results①Using the new CCCG risk stratification， the 5-year event-free survival （EFS） rates for children who received versus did not receive risk-stratified chemotherapy according to the CCCG-HB-2016 protocol were 82.5% and 67.7% （P=0.002）， respectively， and the 5-year overall survival （OS） rates were 91.5% and 85.1% （P=0.038）. Using CHIC risk stratification， the corresponding 5-year EFS rates for children who received versus did not receive risk-stratified chemotherapy according to the CCCG-HB-2016 protocol were 80.3% and 68.5% （P=0.030）， and the 5-year OS rates were 90.9% and 85.8% （P=0.151）. ②Among children treated with the CCCG-HB-2016 protocol stratified by the new CCCG system， the 5-year EFS rates for the very low-risk （6 cases）， low-risk （20 cases）， intermediate-risk （61 cases）， and high-risk （69 cases） groups were 100%， 94.1%， 94.7%， and 66.2% （P＜0.001）， respectively， and the 5-year OS rates were 100%， 100%， 96.5%， and 82.0% （P=0.017）. Among children treated with the CCCG-HB-2016 protocol stratified by the CHIC system， the 5-year EFS rates for the very low-risk （32 cases）， low-risk （22 cases）， intermediate-risk （37 cases）， and high-risk （54 cases） groups were 93.8%， 95.2%， 76.1%， and 66.8% （P=0.003）， respectively， and the 5-year OS rates were 93.1%， 100%， 89.5%， and 85.6% （P=0.190）. ③For patients receiving CCCG-HB-2016 risk-stratified chemotherapy， the P-values for EFS comparisons between the CHIC and new CCCG systems within the very low-risk， low-risk， intermediate-risk， and high-risk groups were 0.537， 0.879， 0.023， and 0.934， respectively. Among patients who received stratified chemotherapy according to the CCCG-HB-2016 regimen， the intermediate-risk group in the new CCCG risk stratification system exhibited a significant advantage in 5-year event-free survival （EFS） compared with the intermediate-risk group in the CHIC risk stratification system （94.7% vs. 76.1%）. ConclusionCompared to the CHIC risk stratification， the new CCCG stratification may offer better prognostic prediction and guidance value for chemotherapy in Chinese HB patients， with the intermediate-risk group showing superior outcomes.

Purpose To investigate the role of combined immunohistochemical expression of SATB2 and p16 and pathological histomorphological features in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of atypical polypoid adenomyoma(APAM),myometrial infiltrating endometrioid carcinoma(MIEC)and interstitial fibrotic endometrial polyps(IFEP).Methods A total of 32 cases of APAM,20 cases of MIEC and 25 cases of IFEP were collected.The expression of SATB2 and p16 in the stromal cells of the three groups of cases was detected by immunohistochemical EnVision two-step method.Four morphological features were evaluated in the three groups:complex glandular structure,squamous and mulberry metaplasia,fibromuscular stroma and cellular atypia.Results The expression of SATB2 in the stroma of APAM(31/32)was significantly higher than that of MIEC(1/20)and IFEP(0/25),and the difference was statisti-cally significant.The expression of p16 in APAM(32/32)stroma was significantly higher than that in MIEC(3/20),and the difference was statistically significant,while compared with IFEP(21/25),the difference was not statistically significant.Histomorphological characteristics:compared with the MIEC group,APAM had obvious squamous and mul-berry metaplasia(APAM group 31/32,MIEC group 4/20),and the difference was statistically significant;However,there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of complex glandular structure(APAM group 22/32,MIEC group 20/20),fibromuscular stroma(APAM group 32/32,MIEC group 20/20),and cellular at-ypia(APAM group 32/32,MIEC group 20/20).Compared with the IFEP group,APAM had typical complex glandu-lar structure(APAM group 20/32,IFEP group 0/25),squamous and mulberry metaplasia(APAM group 32/32,IF-EP group 2/25),and cellular atypia(APAM group 32/32,IFEP group 0/25),and the difference was statistically sig-nificant.However,there was no statistically significant difference in fibromuscular stroma(APAM group 32/32,IFEP group 25/25)between the two groups.Conclusion The combined immunohistochemical analysis of SATB2 and p16 and histomorphological features is helpful for the diagnosis of APAM and the differential diagnosis of MIEC and IFEP.

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) refers to acute diffuse lung injury caused by a variety of intrapulmonary and/or extrapulmonary factors such as infection and trauma. Uncontrolled inflammatory response is the main pathological feature. Different functional states of alveolar macrophages have different effects on inflammatory response. Transcription activating factor 3 (ATF3) is a fast response gene in the early stage of stress. In recent years, it has been found that ATF3 plays an important role in regulating the inflammatory response of ARDS by regulating the function of macrophages. This paper reviews the regulatory effects of ATF3 on alveolar macrophage polarization, autophagy and endoplasmic reticulum stress and its effects on the inflammatory process of ARDS, aiming to provide a new research direction for the prevention and treatment of ARDS.

The satisfaction of "scientificity", "comprehensiveness", "internal coordination" and "hierarchy" at the content level, "systematic thinking" and "quality education" at the thinking level, "deepening the understanding and application of relevant knowledge in the field of chronic disease prevention and control" and "the content is convenient for self-study and helps guide the construction of new knowledge" at the motivation level, and "accurate words, fluent language and easy to read and understand" and "firm binding, good paper quality and clear printing" at the arrangement level of the teaching material was more than 90.00%. Only the satisfaction of "the critical thinking" at the thinking level and "stimulating learning enthusiasm" at the motivation level was less than 85.00%.Conclusion:The teaching material of The prevention and control of chronic non- communicable disease meets the learning needs of postgraduates majoring in public health, and students have high overall satisfaction evaluation on the teaching material. It is necessary to further optimize the two aspects of "the critical thinking" and "stimulating learning enthusiasm" in the revision of the teaching material.

High mobility group protein B1 (HMGB1), a highly conversed non-histone nucleoproteins with strong pro-inflammatory property, is one of the inflammatory mediator of the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Numerous studies have confirmed that HMGB1 regulates ARDS by binding to receptor for advanced glycation end product (RAGE), Toll-like receptor (TLR) and etc. And it can significantly increase the mortality of ARDS. But the mechanism of HMGB1 release is still unclear. This study focuses on the HMGB1 release progress, which connected with Janus kinases/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT), nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), Notch, inflammasome, tumor necrosis factor (TNF), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), reactive oxygen species (ROS), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) and other signaling or dependent pathways in ARDS.

OBJECTIVE：To investigate th e stabilities of antitumor candid ate Gedatolisib in plasma in vitro and simulated gastric/intestinal fluids ，and to analyze the possible catabolites in plasma. METHODS ：HPLC method was adopted. Using indometacin as internal standard ，the contents of Gedatolisib incubated in plasma of SD rats （male）for 0，0.5，1.0，1.5，2.0，3.0 h and blank simulated gastric fluid （pH 1.3，no enzyme ），blank simulated intestinal fluid （pH 6.8，no enzyme ），simulated gastric fluid（pH 1.3，containing pepsin ）and simulated intestinal fluid （pH 6.8，containing trypsin ）for 0，0.5，1.0，2.0，3.0，4.0，6.0 h were determined. The remaining percentage of Gedatolisib was calculated. UPLC-Q-TOF/MS was used to analyze the TIC of blank plasma and incubated samples. The differential peaks were compared， and catabolites were inferred by MS 1Z073）.gzwjkj2019-1- chromatograms. RESULTS ： The remaining percentage in plasma of rats for 2.0 h was about 63％，and there was nosignificant change after continued incubation. The remaining percentage of Gedatolisib incubated in blank simulated intestinal fluid for different time ranged （99.18 ± 2.15）％ -（103.20 ± 3.41）％ . The remaining percentage in simulated com intestinal fluids for 2.0 h ranged （88.76 ± 1.53）％ . The remaining percentage in blank simulated gastric fluids for 2.0 h was ranged （85.63±1.55）％，and there was no significant change after continued incubation. The remaining percentage in simulated gastric fluid was from （94.94±3.52）％（0 h）to（16.19±1.17）％ （6.0 h）. TIC of UPLC-Q-TOF/MS showed that the differential peaks of incubated samples and blank plasma was 6.42 min under positive mode scanning ，molecular ion peak of m/z 616.335 1，simulated 632.327 7，630.317 0，602.278 6 [M+H]+ could be found in scanning channel. It was speculated that Gedatolisib could generate 1-（4-（3-（4，6-dimorpholino-1，3，5-triazin-2-yl）phenyl）urea） benzoyl）-N，N-dimethylpiperidin-4-amine oxide ，1-（4-（4-（dimethylamino）piperidine-1-carbonyl）phenyl）-3-（4-（4-morpholino-6- （3-oxomorpholino）-1，3，5-triazin-2-yl）phenyl）urea and 1-（4-（3-（4-（4，6-dimorpholino-1，3，5-triazin-2-yl）phenyl）urea） benzoyl）-N-methylpiperidine. CONCLUSIONS ：Gedatolisib is not stable in rat plasma ，and it may undergo terminal N oxidation， morpholine ring oxidation and terminal N demethylation. Gedatolisib is stable in artificial intestinal fluid and blank artificial gastric/ intestinal fluid ，and degrades obviously in the presence of pepsin.

China has entered an aging society since 1999. By the end of 2017, the number of persons aged ≥60 years had increased to 240.90 million. At present, the average life expectancy of China’s population is 76.4 years, and the healthy life expectancy is around 68.7 years, which means that the elderly will be accompanied by disease for about 8 years. The main health problems of the elderly in China include increased prevalence of chronic diseases, increased prevalence of disability, insufficient attention to older persons’ mental health and area specific differences in the health level of the elderly. The disease status of the elderly cannot be ignored. Strengthening the medical services in western and rural areas, emphasizing the psychological and mental concern for the elderly, formulating unified health evaluation criteria, promoting a new model of medical and nursing care combination, establishing an elderly security system with equal responsibilities and rights, jointly managing under the cooperation of whole society and multi-dimensions to protect the health of the elderly are essential to the construction of an active ageing society in China and the realization of the strategic goal of healthy China.
