Objective: To explore the relationship between snack consumption and depressive symptoms in first year junior high school students with different left behind experiences in Yunnan Province, so as to provide a basis for improving depressive symptoms among first year junior high school students with different left behind experiences. Methods: From October to December 2022,a cluster random sampling method was used to select 8 500 first year junior high school students from 11 ethnic minority areas (Fugong County, Longling County, Longyang District, Luchun County, Mojiang County, Nanjian County, Qiaojia County, Shuangjiang County, Tengchong City, Yuanmou County, Zhenyuan County) in Yunnan Province for a questionnaire survey. The Chinese version of Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 was applied to assess depressive symptoms in first year junior high school students, and snack consumption was collected by employing food frequency questionnaire. The generalized linear model was used to analyze the association between first year junior high school students snack consumption and depressive symptoms, and the analysis was stratified according to left behind experience. Results: The detection rates of depressive symptoms among firstyear junior high school students with and without left behind experience were 36.25% and 26.91%, respectively. After controlling for confounding variables, the generalized linear model analysis showed that sweet snacks ( β=0.16, 95%CI =0.07-0.25), fast food ( β=0.14, 95%CI =0.04-0.23) and carbonated drinks ( β=0.09, 95%CI =0.01-0.17) of first year junior high school students with left behind experience (all P <0.05). Compared with those without such behavior, the risk of depressive symptoms was higher in consumption of fast food ( β=0.13, 95%CI =0.07-0.18) and carbonated drinks ( β=0.10, 95%CI =0.06-0.15)among first year junior high school students without left behind experience (both P <0.05). Conclusion Snack consumption among first year junior high school students in Yunnan may increase the risk of developing depressive symptoms, while first year junior high school students with left behind experience may have a greater risk of developing depressive symptoms.

ObjectiveTo explore the role of the histone deacetylase Sirtuin-1 （SIRT1）/p53 signaling pathway in promoting apoptosis of non-small cell lung cancer cells （NSCLC） induced by the co-stimulatory molecule B7 homolog 3 （B7-H3）. MethodsThe GEPIA 2 platform was used for survival analysis of NSCLC patients based on B7⁃H3 gene expression levels. The Gene Enrichment Analysis （GSEA） method was used to analyze the enrichment characteristics of B7⁃H3 molecules in the gene set of cell apoptosis. In the non-small cell lung cancer A549 cell line， B7⁃H3 was knocked down， and the protein expression levels of SIRT1 and p53 were detected by Western blot. B7⁃H3 was overexpressed in A549 cells and the apoptosis rate was analyzed by flow cytometry after Annexin V/PI double staining. Overexpression of B7⁃H3 and knockdown of SIRT1 were performed in A549 cell line. The expression levels of p53 and apoptosis-related proteins B-cell lymphoma/leukemia-2 （Bcl-2） and Bcl-2-associated X protein （Bax） were detected respectively by Western blot. Cell apoptosis rate was analyzed by flow cytometry after Annexin V/PI double staining. ResultsThe overall survival of the B7-H3 high-expression group was significantly lower than that of the low-expression group （P<0.01）. B7-H3 was significantly enriched in the cell apoptosis signaling pathway and the p53 signaling pathway （P<0.05）. Compared with the control group， the expression of SIRT1 was significantly downregulated， and p53 was significantly upregulated in the B7⁃H3 knockdown group （both P<0.001）. Overexpression of B7-H3 significantly up-regulated SIRT1 protein expression （P<0.05）， down-regulated p53 expression （P<0.01）， and markedly increased the Bcl-2/Bax ratio of apoptosis-related proteins （P<0.001）. The results of Annexin V/PI double staining showed that the apoptosis rate of A549 cells with overexpressed B7⁃H3 decreased （the apoptosis rate of the control group was 26.72%±4.13%， while that of the B7⁃H3 overexpression group was 13.87%±0.82%； P<0.01）. In B7-H3-overexpressing cell lines， SIRT1 knockdown significantly reversed apoptosis （P<0.05）， up-regulated p53 protein expression （P<0.001）， and markedly reduced the Bcl-2/Bax ratio （P<0.001）. ConclusionB7-H3 molecule inhibits the apoptosis of non-small cell lung cancer cells via the SIRT1/p53 signaling pathway.

Objective:To analyze the prevalence and risk factors of blindness and moderate to severe visual impairment among Han and Kazakh residents aged 50 years and older in Tacheng City, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.Methods:This study is a cross-sectional survey conducted using cluster random sampling from October 2015 to June 2018 in Emin County, Tacheng City, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. The study included individuals aged 50 years and older to survey blindness and moderate to severe visual impairment. Ophthalmological examinations combined with questionnaires were conducted to gather basic information. The data collected from the questionnaires included general demographic information and health conditions. The results of the eye examinations were used to diagnose a total of 12 risk factors including cataracts, glaucoma, pterygium, suspected glaucoma, glaucoma, and refractive errors. These risk factors were analyzed in relation to blindness and moderate to severe visual impairment. Univariate analysis was conducted first, followed by logistic regression to identify the significant factors.Results:A total of 2 114 patients were included in the final analysis, among which the prevalence of moderate to severe visual impairment was 18.54% (392/2 114), and the prevalence of blindness was 2.74% (58/2 114). Univariate analysis showed that blindness and moderate to severe visual impairment were associated with age ( χ2 = 32.97, P < 0.05), hypertension ( χ2 = 3.48, P < 0.05), age-related cataract ( χ2 = 17.43, P < 0.05), glaucoma ( χ2 = 3.90, P < 0.05), macular degeneration ( χ2 = 16.04, P < 0.05), diabetes ( χ2 = 3.09, P < 0.05), pterygium ( χ2 = 2.57, P < 0.05), and fundus arteriosclerosis ( χ2 = 2.31, P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that moderate to severe visual impairment was correlated with age (50 to < 60 years: OR = 2.91, 95% CI: 0.44-13.45; 60 to < 70 years: OR = 3.52, 95% CI: 0.73-8.77; 70 to < 80 years: OR = 4.31, 95% CI: 0.85-8.96), ethnicity ( OR = 4.45, 95% CI: 0.56-5.95), sex ( OR = 0.47, 95% CI: 0.34-0.64), age-related cataract ( OR = 1.67, 95% CI: 1.05-2.65), glaucoma ( OR = 2.97, 95% CI: 1.67-5.30), and coronary heart disease ( OR = 2.56, P < 0.05). Blindness was correlated with age (70-79 years: OR = 1.54, 95% CI: 1.12-2.11), sex ( OR = 0.67, 95% CI: 0.34-0.64), glaucoma ( OR = 1.65, 95% CI: 0.42-6.49), diabetes ( OR = 2.05, 95% CI: 1.35-3.09), and coronary heart disease ( OR = 1.92, 95% CI: 1.07-3.43). Among these, age (70-79 years), glaucoma, diabetes, and coronary heart disease were identified as risk factors for blindness, while sex was observed as a protective factor against blindness in this region. Based on univariate and multivariate analyses as well as clinical practice, it was concluded that age (50 to < 60 years: OR = 4.42, 95% CI: 1.31-14.92; 60 to < 70 years: OR = 4.49, 95% CI: 1.70-11.84; 70 to < 80 years: OR = 3.19, 95% CI: 1.29-7.87), age-related cataract ( OR = 1.67, 95% CI: 1.05-2.65), and glaucoma ( OR = 2.97, 95% CI: 1.67-5.30) were identified as significant risk factors for moderate to severe visual impairment. Glaucoma ( OR = 1.65, 95% CI: 0.42-6.49) and diabetes ( OR = 2.05, 95% CI: 1.35-3.09) were identified as the main risk factors for blindness in this region (both P < 0.05). Conclusions:In Tacheng City, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, the prevalence rates of moderate to severe visual impairment and blindness among Han and Kazakh residents are relatively high. Age-related cataracts and glaucoma are the primary causes, while age and diabetes are the main risk factors.

Epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitor (EGFRI) -related paronychia is a condition clearly related to EGFRI therapy, characterized by periungual erythema, edema, purulent exudates, periungual or subungual granulomatous lesions, and sometimes accompanied by thinning, fragility or even splitting and seperation of nail plates. Inhibition of epidermal function, inflammation and secondary infections, as well as angiogenesis are the core processes in the occurrence and development of EGFRI-related paronychia. This review summarizes epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, prevention and treatment of EGFRI-related paronychia.

Objective:To explore the clinical application value of serum N-glycan profiles for evaluating the severity of liver tissue inflammation in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB).Methods:A total of 221 CHB patients who underwent liver biopsy at Mengchao Hepatobiliary Hospital of Fujian Medical University from January 2018 to December 2020 were retrospectively enrolled. The Scheuer scoring system was used to assess the histological inflammation grade of the liver tissue. Serum N-glycan levels were measured using DNA sequencer-assisted N-glycan fingerprinting (NGFP). Using the upper limit of the alanine aminotransferase (ALT) reference value (40 U/L) as a cutoff, logistic regression models were developed to construct diagnostic models under two scenarios: normal ALT or abnormal ALT. Models based on serum N-glycan levels and serum N-glycan levels combined with routine laboratory indicators, were used to non-invasively evaluation of various pathological grades of liver tissue inflammation in CHB patients. The DeLong test was used to compare the diagnostic efficacy of the models by analyzing the areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Glycosylation-related gene expression differences associated with varying degrees of liver inflammation were analyzed using the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database.Results:In CHB patients with normal ALT level, the relative abundances of N-glycan structure peak 1 (NGA2F) and peak 2 (NGA2FB) increased with higher liver inflammation grades, while the relative abundance of peak 5 (NA2) decreased ( P<0.05). The AUCs of the HIS-G model (HIS-G A) and its enhanced version (HIS-G A Plus) for identifying significant inflammation and necrosis (≥G2, indicating the initiation of antiviral therapy) were 0.805 (95% CI 0.690-0.899) and 0.904 (95% CI 0.821-0.960), respectively. In CHB patients with ALT>40 U/L, the relative abundances of peaks 1 (NGA2F), 2 (NGA2FB), and 3 (NG1A2F) increased with higher liver inflammation grades, while the relative abundances of peaks 8 (NA3) and 11 (NA4) decreased ( P<0.05). The AUCs of the HIS-G model (HIS-G B) and its enhanced version (HIS-G B Plus) for identifying significant inflammation (≥G2) were 0.810 (95% CI 0.727-0.889) and 0.838 (95% CI 0.754-0.901), respectively. With increasing liver inflammation grades, the expression levels of four glycosyltransferase genes (CHST4, FUT8, SLC51B, and ST8SIA4) were significantly upregulated ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Serum N-glycan biomarker models can be used to assist in evaluating the severity of liver tissue inflammation in CHB patients with both normal and abnormal ALT levels.
