Objective: To explore the network structure of anxiety and depressive symptoms, and psychotic like experiences in junior and senior high school students with different sleep qualities, and to provide a reference for improving sleep quality in the population. Methods: A cross sectional online survey was conducted among 22 997 junior and senior high school students from seven junior and senior high schools in Luzhou City, Sichuan Province, using convenience sampling. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7), Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), and the 16item Prodromal Questionnaire (PQ-16) were administered. Independent sample t-test was used to compare mental health status between adolescents with and without sleep problems. Network analysis was applied to examine the symptom association patterns across gender and school stage subgroups. Results: The prevalence of sleep problems among junior and senior high school students was 22.58%. The total anxiety symptom score (8.92± 4.02 ), total depressive symptom score (13.35±5.66), and scores for each factor of PQ-16 (perceptual and sensory abnormalities, thinking abnormalities, negative symptoms, and specific perceptual and sensory abnormalities) (3.32±3.32, 2.08±2.36, 3.36± 2.74 , 1.44±1.86) in the group with sleep problems were all significantly higher than those in the group without sleep problems ( 3.43 ±3.33, 5.03±4.73; 0.63±1.52, 0.47±1.11, 0.77±1.48, 0.25±0.79), with statistically significant differences ( t =99.60, 106.54, 82.49, 68.51, 89.09, 67.30, all P <0.01). In females with sleep problems, the anxiety-depressive symptoms edge weight was the highest (0.44). In males with sleep problems, the "sleep latency-sleep efficiency" edge weight was the highest (0.43), and the strength centrality values of "perceptual abnormalities" "medication factor" and "sleep latency" ranked the higher (1.32, 1.31 and 1.25). The network connectivity strength of the sleep problem group was higher in senior high school students than in junior high school students, and the strength centrality (1.12) and betweenness centrality (0.12) of negative symptoms were higher than those in junior high school students (1.02 and 0.11). Conclusions The network associations between sleep problems and psychological symptoms in junior and senior high school students exhibit gender and school stage specific characteristics. Differentiated intervention strategies should be tailored to specific subgroups.

Spine fracture and dislocation are common traumatic spinal conditions that often require surgical intervention due to compromised spinal stability. Surgical approaches include anterior, posterior, and combined anterior-posterior spinal procedures. According to the specific surgical requirements, patients may be placed in the prone position or repositioned between prone and supine positions during surgery. Intraoperative repositioning has become an essential step in patient positioning. However, during repositioning, patients with spinal fracture and dislocation are at increased risk for complications such as hemodynamic instability, nerve injury, and pressure injuries to the skin and soft tissue. Notably, due to the instability of the spinal cord, even minor manipulations can further exacerbate the damage, potentially leading to severe outcomes like paraplegia. Although the current clinical guidelines provide instructive recommendations for standard position, there remains no specific protocols for intraoperative repositioning in patients with spine fracture and dislocation. With a concern for the lack of clinical studies on positioning techniques, risk prevention, and operational norms for special patients, no applicable guidelines or standards are available. A consensus was required to provide clinical reference, meet the requirements of surgical treatment, and minimize the safety risks of patients caused by improper placement of positions. Professional Committee of Operating Room Nursing of Shaanxi Nursing Association organized experts in nursing management and operating room nursing from major hospitals across China to formulate Expert consensus on intraoperative repositioning for patients with spinal fracture and dislocation ( version 2025). The consensus provides 11 recommendations covering pre-repositioning preparation, intraoperative maneuvers, and post-repositioning observation, aiming to provide references for clinical standardization of the intraoperative repositioning process and protection of patients′ safety.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of 4 novel inflammatory markers related to routine blood tests,namely neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR),red blood cell distribution width(RDW),hemoglobin-to-RDW ratio(HRR)and systemic immune-inflammation index(SII),in elderly patients with chronic cardiovascular disease(CVD)complicated with frailty.Methods Retrospectively analyze 110 patients with chronic stable CVD who were hospitalized in the cadre ward of cardiovascular medicine at the Air Force Characteristic Medical Center from January 2022 to June 2023.According to the assessment results of the Fried scale,they were divided into three groups:non-frailty group(Fried score=0,n=30),the pre-frailty group(Fried score 1 or 2,n=40)and frailty group(Fried score≥3,n=40).The differences in general information,the impairment rate of daily living activities,miniature nutritional assessment-short form(MNA-SF)scores,mini-mental state examination(MMSE)scores,and the indicators such as NLR,RDW,HRR,and SII among the three groups were compared.Spearman rank correlation was used to analyze the correlation between NLR,RDW,HRR,SII and frailty scores as well as each frailty indicator.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the independent risk factors for frailty in elderly patients with chronic CVD,and the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to assess the clinical diagnostic value of NLR and HRR in elderly patients with chronic CVD complicated with frailty.Results Compared with non-frailty group and pre-frailty group,patients in frailty group were older,with higher impaired rates of daily living activities,NLR,RDW,and SII,and lower MNA-SF scores,MMSE scores,and HRR,and differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Spearman rank correlation analysis showed that the frailty score was positively correlated with NLR(rs=0.354,P<0.001),and RDW(rs=0.448,P<0.001),negatively correlated with HRR(rs=-0.232,P=0.024),and had no significant correlation with SII(rs=0.144,P=0.167).Further analysis of the correlation between the above novel inflammatory markers and the 5 components of frailty showed that NLR was positively correlated with fatigue(rs=0.228,P=0.017),slowed walking speed(rs=0.299,P<0.001),and low physical function(rs=0.319,P<0.001);RDW was positively correlated with decreased grip strength(rs=0.321,P<0.001),slowed walking speed(rs=0.422,P<0.001),and low physical function(rs=0.246,P=0.001);and HRR was negatively correlated with slowed walking speed(rs=-0.230,P=0.025),and low physical function(rs=-0.299,P=0.003).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that MNA-SF score(OR=0.577,95%CI 0.342-0.973)was an independent protective factor for pre-frailty in elderly patients with chronic CVD(P<0.05);NLR(OR=7.866,95%CI 1.101-56.185)was an independent risk factor for frailty,while HRR(OR=0.344,95%CI 0.120-0.983)and MNA-SF score(OR=0.292,95%CI 0.146-0.580)were independent protective factors for frailty in elderly CVD patients(P<0.05).The area under the ROC curve of NLR and HRR for diagnosing frailty in elderly patients with chronic CVD were 0.778 and 0.749,respectively.Conclusion NLR and HRR have high clinical diagnostic value for frailty in elderly patients with chronic CVD,and are expected to become effective inflammatory markers for screening elderly patients with chronic CVD complicated with frailty.

Objective To establish a rapid,sensitive,and specific multiplex PCR detection method for the simultaneous detection of Cryptosporidium,Eimeria,and bovine parvovirus.Methods Specific primers targeting the SSU rRNA genes of Cryptosporidium and Eimeria,as well as the VP2 gene of bovine parvovirus were designed and the corresponding recombinant plasmid standards were constructed.To establish the multiplex PCR method,the reaction conditions were optimized using temperature gradient PCR and single-variable control methods.The sensitivity,specificity,reproducibility,and clinical application of the protocol were evaluated.Results The optimal annealing temperature was found to be 60.5℃,and the forward and reverse primer concentrations were determined to be 0.2 μmol/L for Eimeria,and 0.4 μmol/L for Cryptosporidium and bovine parvovirus.The assay demonstrated high sensitivity,with detection limits of 243,260,and 3 110 copies for the recombinant plasmid standards of Cryptosporidium,Eimeria,and bovine parvovirus,respectively.Specificity testing showed no cross-reactivity with ten common bovine pathogens,including Salmonella,bovine viral diarrhea virus,and bovine rotavirus.Consistent intra-and inter-batch results confirmed the strong reproducibility of the method.Clinical application to 81 diarrhea samples from various regions in the Ganzi Prefecture,Sichuan,revealed positivity rates of 18.52%(15/81)for Cryptosporidium,34.57%(28/81)for Eimeria,and 18.52%(15/81)forbovineparvovirus,withamixedinfectionrateof3.7%(3/81).Conclusions Themultiplex PCR method established in this study offers a reliable tool for differential diagnosis and epidemiological investigation of the three common diarrheal pathogens in yaks.

Objective:To establish a mouse model of liver cancer resistant to PD-1 monoclonal antibody and analyze the changes in its metabolomics to explore the potential mechanism of drug resistance.Methods:BALB/c mice were randomly divided into control and treatment groups after being loaded with tumor,and a normal group was additionally set up.The normal and control groups were injected with saline,and the treatment group was injected with PD-1 monoclonal antibody,after which the mice in the treatment group were screened for drug resistant and response groups.Observed the drug-resistant situation,body mass,tumor growth and survival rate of mice in each group,calculate the spleen index.The pathological features of tumor tissues were observed by HE staining method.Serum metabolites were detected by non-targeted metabolomics.Finally,a bivariate Pearson correlation analysis was conducted between the differential serum metabolites and tumor size.Results:The tumor-bearing mouse model with PD-1 monoclonal antibody resistance was successfully established,and the drug resistance rate of the mice was 50％.Compared with the normal and response groups,mice in the resistant group showed an increase in body weight,a significant increase in tumor volume,a decrease in survival rate,and a significant increase in splenic index.There was less lymphocyte infiltration in the tumor tissue.Metabolomics analysis showed that the serum levels of glutamic acid and aspartic acid increased and malic acid decreased in the resistant mice compared with the response group,and these changes were closely related to the arginine biosynthesis pathway.Conclusions:The tumor-bearing mouse model with PD-1 monoclonal antibody resistance was successfully established.The changes in its peripheral serum metabolomics mainly involve arginine metabolism and the related changes of aspartate,malate and glutamate.

Objective:To explore the effect of Shenxianling granules on the pharmacokinetics of ondansetron. Methods:A method for detecting the plasma concentration of ondansetron using highperformance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was established. The reliability of the method was validated through specificity, linear relationship, precision, stability, repeated experiments, and sample recovery rate testing. Thirty six healthy male New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into 2 groups, with 18 rabbits in each group. Rabbits in the single ondansetron group (single drug group) received intravenous injection of ondansetron 0.92 mg/kg through the ear vein. Rabbits in the Shenxianling granules combined with ondansetron group (combination drug group) were firstly given 575 mg/kg of Shenxianling granules by gavage continuously for 10 days, and on the morning of the 11th day, ondansetron 0.92 mg/kg was intravenously injected. Blood samples were collected before administration and at 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 5 hours, 6 hours, 7 hours, 8 hours, 10 hours and 24 hours after administration of ondansetron. The blood concentration of ondansetron was detected using HPLC method and pharmacokinetic parameters were calculate. Results:Two New Zealand rabbits in the combination drug group developed agitation and cough, and then died on the second and fifth day of gavage, respectively. Therefore a total of 18 and 16 rabbits in the single drug group and the combination drug group completed the experiment, respectively. After ondansetron administration, the plasma concentration of ondansetron increased rapidly in the single drug group and remained at low levels in the combination drug group. From 5 minutes to 10 hours after administration, the plasma concentration of ondansetron at the 13 blood sampling time points in the combination drug group was significantly lower than that in the single drug group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.001). Compared with the single drug group, the plasma clearance half-life of ondansetron in the combination drug group was significantly prolonged, the peak time, peak concentration, concentration at the last time and area under the curve (AUC) were all significantly reduced, and the percen- tage of residual or extrapolated area to the overall AUC, apparent volume of distribution, and clearance/bioavailability ratio were significantly increased; the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.001). Conclusions:There is a significant interaction between Shenxianling granules and ondansetron, leading to a decreased plasma concentration of ondansetron. The mechanism may be related to Shenxianling granules altering the tissue distribution of ondansetron within the body.

Objective To investigate the differential expression genes(DEGs)related to angiogenesis in rosacea(RA)by utilizing bioinformatics analysis in order to screen the key genes and verify their mRNA expression levels.Methods The gene microarray dataset GSE65914 was retrieved from the Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)repository.Analyzed by R programming,the dataset was refined to identify DEGs related to RA,and then cross-referenced with angiogenesis-related genes from the GeneCards database to get a subset specific to RA angiogenesis.The process of identifying key genes was augmented by employing protein-protein interaction(PPI)network analysis and Cytoscape-based computational algorithms.The mRNA expression levels of the aforementioned pivotal genes were detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative reverse transcription PCR(RT-qPCR).Results A total of 947 RA-associated DEGs were identified from GEO dataset,and then 202 genes related to RA angiogenesis were further delineated.PPI network analysis and Cytoscape algorithm finally identified 3 key genes,that is,CXCL8,IL-1B,and STAT1.The results of RT-qPCR showed that the mRNA expression levels of MIP-2,GCP-2,IL-1B and STAT1 in RA lesions were significantly higher than those in normal controls(P<0.05).Conclusion With aid of bioinformatics analysis,our study has screened and validated key genes associated with angiogenesis in RA,namely CXCL8,IL-1B,and STAT1,which providing a theoretical basis for elucidating the potential mechanisms underlying RA-induced angiogenesis and developing targeted therapeutic strategies.

OBJECTIVE: Several epidemiological observational studies have related particulate matter (PM) exposure to Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), but many confounding factors make it difficult to draw causal links from observational studies. The objective of this study was to explore the causal association between PM _2.5 exposure, its absorbance, and IBD. METHODS: We assessed the association of PM _2.5 and PM _2.5 absorbance with the two primary forms of IBD (Crohn's disease [CD] and ulcerative colitis [UC]) using Mendelian randomization (MR) to explore the causal relationship. We conducted two-sample MR analyses with aggregated data from the UK Biobank genome-wide association study. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms linked with PM _2.5 concentrations or their absorbance were used as instrumental variables (IVs). We used inverse variance weighting (IVW) as the primary analytical approach and four other standard methods as supplementary analyses for quality control. RESULTS: The results of MR demonstrated that PM _2.5 had an adverse influence on UC risk (odds ratio [ OR] = 1.010; 95% confidence interval [ CI] = 1.001-1.019, P = 0.020). Meanwhile, the results of IVW showed that PM _2.5 absorbance was also causally associated with UC ( OR = 1.012; 95% CI = 1.004-1.019, P = 0.002). We observed no causal relationship between PM _2.5, PM _2.5 absorbance, and CD. The results of sensitivity analysis indicated the absence of heterogeneity or pleiotropy, ensuring the reliability of MR results. CONCLUSION Based on two-sample MR analyses, there are potential positive causal relationships between PM _2.5, PM _2.5 absorbance, and UC.

Objective:To investigate the clinical application effects of free transplantation of lobulated inguinal flaps.Methods:This study was a retrospective observational study. From July 2019 to April 2024, 34 patients with skin defect wounds whose wounds in one part met the inclusion criteria were admitted to Tongren Hospital of Wuhan University & Wuhan Third Hospital, including 28 males and 6 females, aged 26 to 59 years. The wound area in the recipient area ranged from 3.0 cm×2.0 cm to 25.0 cm×20.0 cm. The lobulated inguinal flap pedicled with the branch of the superficial circumflex iliac artery were obtained in 19 patients, and the lobulated inguinal flap pedicled with the main artery of the superficial circumflex iliac artery and the superficial inferior epigastric artery were obtained in 15 patients. The total area of the flaps ranged from 6.0 cm×2.2 cm to 27.0 cm×23.0 cm. The flaps were divided into 2 to 4 lobes, and the area of each lobe ranged from 2.0 cm×1.0 cm to 17.0 cm×12.0 cm. Each lobe of the flaps was reassembled, spliced, or directly transplanted onto the wounds, and the donor wounds were sutured in layers. The survival of each lobe of the flaps and wound healing in the recipient and donor areas were observed, and the wound recovery in the recipient and donor areas were followed up. At the last follow-up, the patient's satisfaction with the efficacy was assessed by 5-grade Likert scale.Results:A small amount of necrosis appeared in the tip of one lobe of the flaps in 4 patients after surgery, which healed after trimming. The flaps of the remaining 30 patients survived. The wounds in the recipient areas healed smoothly. There was a small amount of necrosis at the suture edge of the donor areas in 3 patients, which healed after local trimming and dressing change. The donor wounds healed well in the remaining 31 patients. During the follow-up of 6 to 42 months, all the recipient wounds were well repaired, and the shape of the donor areas was good. At the last follow-up, 15 patients were very satisfied with the efficacy, 15 were relatively satisfied, and 4 were generally satisfied.Conclusions:Through preoperative ultrasonic examination and positioning, the inguinal flap is designed according to the course of blood vessels and lobulated with the branch of the superficial circumflex iliac artery or the main artery of the superficial circumflex iliac artery and the superficial inferior epigastric artery as the pedicles. The anatomical process is reliable and the blood flow of the flap after being lobulated is rich, which can meet the repair needs of various skin defect wounds. The repair effect is good, and the damage in the donor area is small, which is worthy of promotion.
