ObjectiveTo observe the prevention and control effect of processed Polygonatum cyrtonema on depression induced by chronic unpredictable mild stress （CUMS） in female rats. MethodsForty rats were assigned into control， model， and low-， medium-， and high-dose processed P. cyrtonema groups according to the random number table method， with 8 rats in each group. The rat model of depression was established with the CUMS method. The body mass， open field test， forced swimming test， Morris water maze test， levels of neurotransmitters ［dopamine （DA）， 5-hydroxytryptamine （5-TH）， and acetylcholine （ACh）］， serum levels of sex hormones ［gonadotropin-releasing hormone（GnRH）， testosterone （T）， and estradiol （E₂）］ and inflammatory factors ［tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin （IL）-6， and IL-10］， and mRNA and protein levels of factors in the brain-derived neurotrophic factor （BDNF）/tyrosine kinase receptor B （TRKB）/cAMP-response element binding protein （CREB） pathway were employed to evaluate the effect of processed P. cyrtonema on the CUMS-induced depression in female rats. ResultsThe body mass， open field test results， and forced swimming test results showed that the rat model of depression was successfully established. The comparison of behaviors， neurotransmitters， sex hormones， inflammatory factors， and neural pathways among groups showed that processed P. cyrtonema had different effects of preventing the development of depression in female rats. SPSS 25 was used for statistical analysis of error and significance. T test was conducted between groups. Each treatment group showed significant therapeutic effect compared with the model group （P<0.05）. Processed P. cyrtonema elevated the level of 5-TH （P<0.01） and lowered the levels of DA and ACh （P<0.01） in the brain tissue of female rats. In addition， it reduced the serum levels of GnRH， T， E₂， TNF-α， and IL-6 （P<0.05） and up-regulated the mRNA levels of BDNF and TRKB in the rat brain. ConclusionProcessed P. cyrtonema has a non-hyperactive preventive effect on CUMS-induced depression in rats， which provides a theoretical basis for the development of processed P. cyrtonema as a functional food product.

Objective: To analyze the change trends in the body shape indicators and proportions of students in Harbin from 2010 to 2024, and to investigate ergonomic compatibility of functional dimensions of school desks and chairs with current student shape indicators, so as to provide a reference for revising furniture standards of desks and chairs. Methods: Between September and November of both 2010 and 2024, a combination of convenience sampling and stratified cluster random sampling was conducted across three districts in Harbin, yielding samples of 6 590 and 6 252 students, respectively. Anthropometric shape indicators cluding height, sitting height, crus length, and thigh length-and their proportional changes were compared over the 15-year period. The 2024 data were compared with current standard functional dimensions of school furniture. The statistical analysis incorporated t-test and Mann-Whitney U- test. Results: From 2010 to 2024, average height increased by 1.8 cm for boys and 1.5 cm for girls; sitting height increased by 1.5 cm for both genders; crus length increased by 0.3 cm for boys and 0.4 cm for girls; and thigh length increased by 0.5 cm for both genders. The ratios of sitting height to height, and sitting height to leg length increased by less than 0.1 . The difference between desk chair height and 1/3 sitting height ranged from 0.4-0.8 cm. Among students matched with size 0 desks and chairs, 22.0% had a desk to chair height difference less than 0, indicating that the desk to chair height difference might be insufficient for taller students. The differences between seat height and fibular height ranged from -1.4 to 1.1 cm; and the differences between seat depth and buttock popliteal length ranged from -9.8 to 3.4 cm. Among obese students, the differences between seat width and 1/2 hip circumference ranged from -20.5 to -8.7 cm, while it ranged from -12.2 to -3.8 cm among non obese students. Conclusion Current furniture standards basically satisfy hygienic requirements; however, in the case of exceptionally tall and obese students, ergonomic accommodations such as adaptive seating allocation or personalized adjustments are recommended to meet hygienic requirements.

Objective: To construct prediction models of female stress urinary incontinence (SUI), and evaluate the efficacy of each model, so as to provide reference for the early diagnosis of SUI. Methods: Female SUI patients treated in our hospital during Oct. 2019 and Oct. 2023 and healthy women undergoing physical examination during the same period were involved. Women 42 days after delivery were included in the postpartum group (n=611), and perimenopausal and postmenopausal women were included in the non-postpartum group (n=409). The number of random seeds was set and the participants were divided into the training and verification sets in a ratio of 7∶3. Relevant clinical data were collected, and meaningful variables were screened using single factor and Lasso regression, which were then incorporated into the K-nearest neighbor method (KNN), support vector machine (SVM)，decision tree (DT) and random forest (RF) algorithms. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of the models were calculated to screen out the optimal model. Results: There were 352 SUI patients (57.6%) in the postpartum group. According to single factor and Lasso regression, significant variables included age, body mass index (BMI), maximum rapid muscle stage, parity, bladder neck mobility (BND), urethral rotation angle (URA), lateral perineal incision, past incontinence, and constipation. In the verification set, the AUC of KNN，SVM，DT and RF models were 0.881，0.878，0.750 and 0.905,respectively; the AUC, accuracy, F1 index and Kappa value of RF model were the largest. In the non-postpartum group, there were 260 SUI patients, accounting for 63.6%. The significant variables were age，BMI, maximum value and recovery time of fast muscle stage, mean value of slow muscle stage, post-resting stage variability, vaginal delivery, past incontinence, and constipation. In the verification set, the AUC of KNN,SVM，DT and RF models were 0.819,0.805，0.603 and 0.830, respectively; the AUC, accuracy, Kappa value of the RF model were the largest. Conclusion: This study successfully established 4 prediction models for the incidence of SUI in women at 42 days postpartum, perimenopausal and postmenopausal women based on machine learning. Among them, the model adopting the RF algorithm had the best prediction efficiency.

Objective To compare the effects of ginsenosides Rg1 and Rb1 on depression-and anxiety-like behaviors in chronic unpredictable stress-induced rats.Methods Seventy male SPF grade SD rats were tested for sugar and water preference after 5 days of adaptation and divided into seven groups according to their preference index:a control group,model group,fluoxetine hydrochloride group,ginsenoside Rg1 24 mg/kg group,ginsenoside Rg1 48 mg/kg group,ginsenoside Rb1 33 mg/kg group,and ginsenoside Rb1 67 mg/kg group.All rats,except for the control group,were subjected randomly to one or two different stimulating factors every day for a total of 35 days.On the 36th day,behavioral experiments including sugar and water preference,open field,novel environment feeding inhibition,elevated cross maze,and forced swimming experiments were conducted to investigate the anti-depression and anti-anxiety effects of the treatments.Serum and hippocampal levels of interleukin(IL)-1β,IL-6,tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α and serum corticosterone were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Results Compared with the model group,ginsenoside Rg1 and Rb1 significantly increased sucrose consumption in the sucrose preference test and decreased immobility in the forced swimming test.Ginsenoside Rg1(48 mg/kg)significantly reduced the latency to eat in the novelty-suppressed feeding test,and ginsenoside Rg1(24 and 48 mg/kg)significantly increased the percentage of open arm entries and time in the elevated cross maze test.Serum corticosterone levels were significantly decreased in the ginsenoside Rg1 and Rb1 groups,serum IL-1β and IL-6 levels were significantly decreased in the ginsenoside Rg1(48 mg/kg)group,serum TNF-α and IL-6 levels were significantly decreased in the ginsenoside Rb1(33 mg/kg)group,and IL-1β,IL-6,and TNF-α levels in the hippocampus were significantly decreased in the ginsenoside Rg1(48 mg/kg)and Rb1(67 mg/kg)groups.Conclusions Both ginsenosides can regulate the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and inhibit neuroinflammation,improving depression-and anxiety-like behaviors in rats induced by chronic unpredictable stress.Ginsenoside Rg1 has a significantly better anti-anxiety effect than Rb1.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common chronic inflammatory disease that often coexists with atopic diseases such as asthma, allergic rhinitis, and food allergies. In recent years, more and more studies have shown that AD is associated with various diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, autoimmune diseases, and mental disorders, which exacerbate the disease burden on patients with AD and severely affect their quality of life. This review summarizes AD-associated comorbidities reported in previous literature, analyzes their possible common pathogenesis, and explores potential treatments.

Objective:To evaluate the role of histogram analysis based on amide proton transfer weighted (APTw) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) imaging in predicting alpha-thalassemia/mental retardation syndrome X-linked ( ATRX) mutation in isocitrate dehydrogenase ( IDH)-mutant WHO grading 2/3 gliomas. Methods:Seventy-eight patients with IDH-mutant WHO grading 2/3 gliomas, admitted to and confirmed by surgical pathology in Department of Functional Neurosurgery, Neurosurgery Center, Zhujiang Hospital, Southern Medical University from June 2017 to October 2023, including 52 with ATRX wild and 26 with ATRX mutant-type, were selected. Preoperative 3D-APTw and ADC imaging data were collected; after post-processing, the lesions were segmented using lesion outlining method based on inclusion of peri-tumor edema and lesion outlining method based on tumor entity, respectively; after that, the histogram features (the 10 th percentile, 90 th percentile, maximum, mean, median, minimum, skewness, kurtosis, entropy, range, uniformity, and variance) were extracted from 3D-APTw and ADC imaging, respectively. Univariate Logistic regression was used to compare the differences in histogram features between patients in the ATRX mutant group and ATRX wild-type group, and multivariate Logistic regression was used to screen the independent predictors for ATRX mutation (a Logistic regression prediction model was constructed). Predictive values of independent predictors and Logistic regression prediction models in ATRX mutation were evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results:(1) With lesion outlining method based on inclusion of peri-tumor edema, univariate analysis indicated significant difference between ATRX mutant group and ATRX wild-type group in 9 histogram features: relative 3D-APTw minimum, 3D-APTw skewness, relative ADC 90 th percentile, relative ADC mean, relative ADC median, ADC kurtosis, ADC skewness, ADC uniformity, and ADC entropy ( P<0.05). With lesion outlining method based on tumor entity, univariate analysis indicated significant difference between ATRX mutant group and ATRX wild-type group in 9 histogram features: relative 3D-APTw 90 th percentile, 3D-APTw skewness, relative ADC 90 th percentile, relative ADC mean, relative ADC median, ADC kurtosis, ADC skewness, ADC uniformity and ADC entropy ( P<0.05). (2) With lesion outlining method based on inclusion of peri-tumor edema, multivariate Logistic regression showed that 3D-APTw skewness and ADC kurtosis were the independent predictor for ATRX mutation in IDH mutant WHO grading 2/3 glioma patients ( OR=0.168, 95% CI: 0.034-0.800, P=0.025; OR=0.508, 95% CI: 0.319-0.807, P=0.004). The constructed Logistic regression prediction model was P(Y=1|X)=1/1+e -(1.827-1.785×3D-APTw skewness-0.678×ADC kurtosis). With lesion outlining method based on tumor entity, multivariate Logistic regression showed that 3D-APTw skewness and ADC kurtosis were independent predictors for ATRX mutation in IDH mutant WHO grading 2/3 glioma patients ( OR=0.164, 95% CI: 0.034-0.791, P=0.024; OR=0.496, 95% CI: 0.312-0.788, P=0.003); the constructed Logistic regression prediction model was P(Y=1|X)=1/1+e -(1.585-1.810×3D-APTw skewness-0.702×ADC kurtosis). (3) ROC curve analysis showed that, with lesion outlining method based on inclusion of peri-tumor edema, area under ROC curve (AUC) of 3D-APTw skewness and ADC kurtosis was 0.725 (95% CI: 0.608-0.842, P=0.001) and 0.794 (95% CI: 0.685-0.904), respectively ( P<0.001); AUC of Logistic regression prediction model was 0.836 (95% CI: 0.729-0.942, P<0.001), and its sensitivity and specificity were 73.10% and 90.40% when the best threshold was 0.505. ROC curve showed that, with lesion outlining method based on tumor entity, AUC of 3D-APTw skewness and ADC kurtosis was 0.705 (95% CI: 0.587-0.823, P=0.003) and 0.808 (95% CI: 0.704-0.913), respectively ( P<0.001); AUC of Logistic regression prediction model was 0.844 (95% CI: 0.739-0.949, P<0.001), and its sensitivity and specificity were 84.60% and 80.80% when the best threshold was 0.399. Conclusion:Histogram analysis based on 3D-APTw and ADC imaging can predict ATRX mutation in IDH mutant WHO grading 2/3 gliomas to a certain extent.
