Objective: To study the effect of nano hemoglobin-based oxygen carrier (nano-HBOC) on radiosensitivity of lung cancer H385 cells. Methods: Using 95% N
and 5% CO
, a lung cancer cell line was constructed in a hypoxic environment, and H385 cells were treated with different concentrations of nano-HBOC and irradiated (4Gy) by an irradiator, and the IC50 concentration was calculated. The cells were detected by flow cytometry (reactive oxygen species, ROS) ROS test. Using GEO database, KEGG pathway enrichment analysis was carried out to predict possible pathways. The levels of lipid peroxidation and Fe
were observed by fluorescence microscope, and the proteins related to iron death pathway were detected by Western-blot. Results: Compared with the control cells, the activity and density of the cells were significantly decreased by nano-HBOC combined with radiotherapy, with a notable proportion of cells exhibiting deteriorated status. There is a positive correlation between ROS level and nano-HBOC concentration, especially after radiotherapy. Radiotherapy combined with nano-HBOC significantly increased the levels of lipid peroxidation and Fe
in H385 cells, while decreasing the levels of iron death pathway proteins slc7a11 and GPX4, and increasing the level of ACSL4. Conclusion: Nano-HBOC enhances the radiosensitivity of lung cancer H385 cells.

Objective:To explore the role and molecular mechanisms of S100A6 protein in neonatal meningitis caused by Streptococcus agalactiae. Methods:Human brain microvascular endothelial cells (HBMECs) were used as an in vitro experimental model, and siRNA was employed to construct S100A6 gene knockdown HBMECs strain. The S100A6 gene overexpression cell line was established by lentiviral transfection method. Western blot was used to detect the expression level of S100A6 protein in HBMECs after Streptococcus agalactiae infection, and the change in intracellular inflammatory cytokine protein levels after S100A6 gene knockdown or overexpression. A neonatal bacterial meningitis model was established by injecting Streptococcus agalactiae suspension into the cisterna magna of neonatal Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. HE staining was used to observe pathological changes in brain tissue; immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression and distribution of S100A6 protein in brain tissue; Western blot and ELISA were used to measure S100A6 protein levels in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Results:Compared with the control group, the intracellular S100A6 protein level in HBMECs increased significantly following Streptococcus cgalactiae infection. After S100A6 gene knockdown, the invasion rate of Streptococcus agalactiae into the HBMECs was significantly reduced ( P<0.01), while intracellular TNF-α and IL-6 protein levels were elevated markedly ( P<0.01). In contrast, overexpression of S100A6 gene increased the invasion rate ( P<0.01) and notably decreased TNF-α and IL-6 protein levels ( P<0.001). In the neonatal SD rat bacterial meningitis model, HE staining revealed substantial neutrophil infiltration in brain tissue after Streptococcus agalactiae infection. Immunohistochemistry showed extensive deposition of S100A6 protein around the meninges, and significant expression of S100A6 protein was also detected in CSF. Conclusions:S100A6 protein is crucial in mediating neonatal meningitis caused by Streptococcus agalactiae infection. S100A6 gene knockdown promotes the production of intracellular inflammatory cytokines and reduces Streptococcus agalactiae invasion into cells, thereby alleviating bacteria-induced cellular damage. Additionally, the increased expression of S100A6 protein in brain tissue and CSF after Streptococcus agalactiae infection suggests its potential as a diagnostic biomarker for bacterial meningitis.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(9):1232-1236
Objective:
To explore the association between mental health and muscle strength among Chinese adolescents aged 13- 18, providing a theoretical foundation and intervention strategies for mental health promotion.
Methods:
Data were obtained from the 2019 Chinese National Survey on Students Constitution and Health, including 98 631 Chinese adolescents aged 13- 18. Psychological distress was assessed by using the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10), and mental well being was measured with the Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well being Scale (WEMWBS). Based on the gender and age specific Z scores of various test items [grip strength, standing long jump, pull ups (for males), and sit ups (for females)], muscle strength index (MSI) was constructed to evaluate the comprehensive level of muscle strength in adolescents. According to the Dual factor Model (DFM) of mental health, participants were categorized into four groups:troubled, symptomatic but content, vulnerable, and complete mental health. Gender differences were analyzed by using Chi-square tests, trends were tested with Cochran-Armitage tests, and multinomial Logistic regression models were applied to assess associations between muscle strength and mental health among adolescents.
Results:
In 2019, 37.4% of Chinese adolescents aged 13-18 were reported of high mental distress, and 59.9% were reported of low mental well being. Boys had significantly lower rates of high mental distress (35.3%) and low mental well being (55.6%) compared to girls (39.4%, 64.3%), and the differences were of statistical significance ( χ 2=176.13, 780.42, both P <0.05). In 2019, the rate of complete mental health among adolescents showed a downward trend with increasing age ( χ 2 trend = 258.47) and a gradual upward trend with increasing muscle strength levels ( χ 2 trend =123.14),and both boys and girls exhibited similar trends ( χ 2 trend =103.83, 168.46; 57.00 , 67.34) (all P <0.05). The results of the unordered multiclass Logistic regression model showed that after controlling for confounding factors such as age and gender, when the completely pathological group as a reference, for every 1 unit increase in MSI in adolescents, the likelihood of being in a completely mental health state increased by 29% ( OR = 1.29); for every unit increase in the Z-score for pull ups, the likelihood of being in a completely mental health state increased by 6% ( OR =1.06) among boys; for every 1 unit increase in sit up Z score, the likelihood of being in a completely mental health state increased by 19% ( OR =1.19) among girls (all P <0.05).
Conclusions
The mental health status of Chinese adolescents is not good enough. Muscle strength is positively associated with mental health.
6.Evolution and development of mental health policies for children and adolescents in China
Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(9):1246-1251
Objective:
To systematically review the development and changes in mental health policies within the National Outline for Children s Development in China from 1992 to 2030, providing a reference basis for future formulation of mental health policies among children and adolescent in China.
Methods:
Based on the four editions of the National Outline for Children s Development in China across different periods from 1992 to 2030, word frequency analysis was used to reveal shifts in policy priorities, and an internationally recognized framework for adolescent health policy analysis was applied to conduct a textual review.
Results:
Word frequency analysis revealed that the term "psychological" appeared 6 times in the National Outline for Children s Development in China (2001-2010) but increased to 20 times in the National Outline for Children s Development in China (2021-2030) (abbreviated as the National Outline of 2021), while the term "health" rose from 4 times in the National Outline for Children s Development Plan in China in the 1990s to 68 times in the National Outline of 2021. The scope of mental health policy interventions expanded to encompass five key areas:health, safety, education, welfare and legal protection. Textual analysis highlighted that the policies of the National Outline for Children s Development in China were demand driven, prioritized vulnerable groups and continuously broadened their coverage, emphasizing sustainability and appropriateness, and monitoring/evaluation mechanisms. By 2023, 42.3% of primary schools and 64.8% of secondary schools employed full time mental health education teachers. However, the National Outline for Children s Development in China lacked direct evidence of children and adolescents participation in policy formulation, and publicly available mental health data disaggregated by age and gender remained limited.
Conclusion
Mental health policies of children and adolescents in China have evolved from nonexistence to gradual refinement, yet institutionalized channels for youth involvement in policy development and evaluation remain insufficient, and transparency in age and gender specific mental health data needs improvement.

Acute Gelsemium poisoning is a systemic disease primarily affecting the central nervous system and respiratory symptoms caused by the ingestion of a substantial amount of Gelsemium within a short period. It manifests as sudden onset and rapid progression, primarily caused by accidental ingestion due to misidentification, and posing significant health risks. The compilation of the Technical Plan for Emergency Health Response to Acute Gelsemium Poisoning describes in detail the specialized practice and technical requirements in the process of handling acute Gelsemium poisoning, including accident investigation and management, laboratory testing and identification, in-hospital treatment, and health monitoring. The guidelines clarify key procedures and requirements such as personal protection, investigation elements, etiology determination, medical rescue, and health education. The key to acute Gelsemium poisoning investigation lies in promptly identifying the toxin through exposure history, clinical manifestations, and sample testing. Because there is no specific antidote for Gelsemium poisoning, immediate removal from exposure, rapid elimination of the toxin, and respiratory monitoring are critical on-site rescue measures. Visual identification of food or herbal materials, followed by laboratory testing to determine Gelsemium alkaloids in samples is a rapid effective screening method. These guidelines offer a scientific, objective, and practical framework to support effective emergency responses to acute Gelsemium poisoning incidences.
