Abstract Adolescents are a high risk group for non suicidal self injury (NSSI), and the severity of the issue has been increasing. However, stigma originating from self perceptions, the public, and healthcare professionals poses significant barriers to help seeking and recovery among adolescents with NSSI. The paper systematically reviews the main intervention strategies targeting NSSI related stigma in adolescents, along with their effectiveness, from three perspectives: educational approaches, contact based interventions, and public advocacy against stigma, aiming to inform the development of a scientific, effective, and multi stakeholder collaborative integrated intervention framework to provide a basis for reducing and ultimately eliminating stigma associated with adolescent NSSI.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors of single-cigarette use and dual cigarette-cigar use in China.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study that selected 85 638 urban and rural residents who met the inclusion criteria from the 2018 China Health Literacy Survey as research subjects. An analysis was conducted on 21 849 users of cigarettes and cigars among them. Due to the small number of individuals who exclusively used cigars (247 cases), the research subjects were divided into two categories: exclusive cigarette users and dual users of cigarettes and cigars. The groups were categorized by age (18-34 years, 35-54 years, ≥55 years), gender (male, female), education level (primary school and below, junior high school and high school, university and above) and annual household income (<20 000 yuan, 20 000-<80 000 yuan, ≥80 000 yuan) to compare the tobacco usage rate and conduct subgroup analyses for each subgroup. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was employed, incorporating general demographic characteristic information to explore the influencing factors of exclusive cigarette use and dual use of cigarettes and cigars, respectively.Results:The rate of exclusive cigarette use in our country was 24.3%, while the dual use rate of cigarettes and cigars was 0.9%. The exclusive cigarette use rate and the dual use rate of cigarettes and cigars among males were significantly higher than those among females (48.25% vs 2.48%, and 1.84% vs 0.06%) (both P<0.001). For males, the high-risk factors for exclusive cigarette use included living in urban areas ( OR: 1.37, 95% CI: 1.23-1.54), being Han ethnicity ( OR: 1.73, 95% CI: 1.51-1.98), and having an annual household income ≥20 000 yuan ( OR: 1.54, 95% CI: 1.38-1.82) while having a junior high school education or higher was a protective factor ( OR: 0.68, 95% CI: 0.52-0.90). Age≥35 years ( OR: 3.36, 95% CI: 2.62-4.32) and having a junior high school education or higher ( OR: 1.30, 95% CI: 1.02-1.67) were risk factors for dual use of cigarettes and cigars in males. Among females, living in urban areas ( OR: 1.53, 95% CI: 1.19-1.97) and being Han ethnicity ( OR: 5.96, 95% CI: 4.47-7.96) were risk factors for exclusive cigarette use, while having a university education or higher was a protective factor ( OR: 0.28, 95% CI: 0.18-0.42). However, for female dual use of cigarettes and cigars, no significant effects were observed for any demographic characteristics. Conclusions:The use rate of cigarettes alone in China is significantly higher than that of cigarette-cigar dual use, and the rates of cigarette use alone and cigarette-cigar dual use in men are significantly higher than those in women. Tobacco use is being affected by sociodemographic factors, among which place of residence, ethnicity and education level are the main influencing factors of cigarette use alone, and gender, age and education level are the main influencing factors of cigarette-cigar dual use.

The transmission electron microscope was used to observe ultrastructure of podocytes. Immunofluorescence was used to detect the protein expression of H3K27me3 and nephrin in podocytes. The whole genome sequence of podocytes was obtained, the differentially expressed genes were screened, and Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) were used for enrichment analysis. Real time-quantitative PCR and Western blotting were used to detect the gene and protein expression of JAK2-STAT3 signaling pathway in podocytes respectively. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect interleukin 6 (IL-6), monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (MCP-1), α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1). (2) Animal experiments: EZH2 gene knock out ( EZH2podKo)-FSGS (tail vein injection of ADR) mouse models were established, and divided into EZH2ctrl+control group ( n=20), EZH2ctrl+FSGS ( n=20), EZH2podKo+control group ( n=30) and EZH2podKo+FSGS group ( n=30). HE staining was used to observe the morphology of kidney tissues. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the H3K27me3 protein expression in podocytes. Real time-quantitative PCR and Western blotting were used to verify the gene and protein expression of JAK2-STAT3 signaling pathway respectively. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect IL-6, MCP-1, α-SMA and TGF-β1 of kidney tissues. Results:(1) Cell experiments: Compared with control group, the nucleus shrank and ruptured, the cytoplasm showed vacuole, and mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum swelled in ADR group, which verified that the podocyte injury model of ADR nephropathy was successfully established. Compared with control group, the protein expression level of H3K27me3 in ADR group was significantly lower ( P<0.05). Compared with ADR group, the protein expression level of H3K27me3 in podocytes in ADR+GSK-J4 group was significantly higher ( P<0.05), and there were 502 increased genes and 443 decreased genes. GO enrichment analysis showed that the differentially enriched peaks were mainly in ribonucleoprotein complex biogenesis, ribosome biogenesis, establishment of protein localization to organelle, and involved in regulation of receptor signaling pathway via JAK-STAT and receptor signaling pathway via JAK-STAT. Differential expressed genes were Irf1, Tnfrsf1a, S ocs1, Notch1, Gadd45a, Hes1 and Socs3, involving in the regulation of JAK-STAT signaling pathway. KEGG enrichment analysis showed that the differentially enriched peaks were mainly in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and the target genes were Mcl1, Egfr, Socs1, Cdkn1a, Pdgfa and Socs3, involving in the regulation of JAK-STAT signaling pathway. Compared with ADR group, the mRNA and protein expression levels of JAK2 and STAT3 in the ADR+GSK-J4 group were significantly lower, and the downstream inflammatory factors of IL-6, MCP-1 and α-SMA were significantly higher (all P<0.05). Compared with ADR group, the protein expression level of nephrin in ADR+GSK-J4 group was higher ( P<0.05), and the protein expression level of nephrin in ADR+C-A1 group was lower ( P<0.05). Compared with ADR+GSK-J4 group, the protein expression level of nephrin in ADR+GSK-J4+C-A1 group was lower ( P<0.05). (2) Animal experiments: Compared with EZH2ctrl+FSGS group, EZH2podKo+FSGS group showed obvious renal tissue damage, matrix hyperplasia in mesangial area with massive homogeneous substance deposition, apoptosis and necrosis of renal tubular epithelial cells, obvious thickening and extensive fusion of glomerular epithelial cells, basement membrane collapse, and compression and narrowing of capillary structure. Compared with EZH2ctrl+FSGS group, the protein expression level of H3K27me3 in EZH2podKo+FSGS group was significantly lower, and the mRNA and protein expression levels of JAK2 and STAT3, and the levels of IL-6, MCP-1, α-SMA and TGF-β1 were higher (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Abnormal methylation modification of H3K27 leads to change of target gene expression, activation of JAK2-STAT3 signaling pathway, podocyte injury, glomerulosclerosis and renal tubular injury, participating in the development of FSGS.
