Objective:
To understand the moderating effect of cohabitation with parents on the association between peer dating behavior and sexual behaviors among secondary vocational school students, so as to provide a scientific basis for preventing sexual behaviors among secondary vocational school students.
Methods:
From March to April 2021, an electronic questionnaire survey was conducted among 3 180 students from 6 vocational schools in Shanghai (urban, suburban, exurban) and Shaanxi (Shangluo, Ankang, Baoji) using cluster sampling. Spearman correlation analysis was used to investigate the relationship of cohabitation with parents, peer dating behavior and sexual behaviors among secondary vocational school students. Binary Logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate the role of cohabitation with parents on peer dating behavior and sexual behaviors among secondary vocational students.
Results:
There was a significant negative between cohabitation with parents and sexual ( r =-0.04); and there was a positive correlation between peer dating behavior and sexual behaviors ( r =0.24), as well as cohabitation with parents and peer dating behavior ( r =0.04)( P <0.05). Multivariable Logistic regression analysis showed an association between peer dating behavior and the occurrence of sexual behaviors ( OR=2.79-12.95, P <0.05). Cohabitation with parents played a moderating role in the association between peer dating behavior and sexual behaviors, and a signification interaction was found between cohabitation with parents and reporting that a small part or about half of their peers had dating behavior ( OR =0.48, P <0.05).
Conclusions
The more peers dating behavior are associated with a higher risk of sexual behaviors among secondary vocational school students, and cohabitation with parents can partly reduce this risk. School and family sexuality education for secondary vocational students should be strengthened to improve their interpersonal skills and decision-making, and ability to resist peer pressure, so as to reduce their risk of sexual behaviors.

ObjectiveTo establish a rat model of osteoarthritis and study the anti-inflammatory effects and mechanisms of fraxetin. MethodsEighteen 8-week-old male SPF-grade SD rats were randomly divided into three groups: Rats in the blank group received a right articular cavity injection of 50 μL of normal saline for 1 week; the model and intervention groups were injected with monosodium iodoacetate (MIA) into the right joint cavity to induce osteoarthritis, while the intervention group subsequently received fraxetin (5 mg·kg-1·d-1) for 1 week. Four weeks after drug intervention, abdominal aortic blood was collected. The animals were then euthanized, and knee joint cartilage were collected. The cartilage samples were stained with hematoxylin-eosin, safranin O-fast green, and toluidine blue for histopathological examination and scoring using the Mankin and OARSI scoring systems. The trabecular bone volume/total volume (Tb.BV/TV), trabecular bone surface density/total volume (Tb.BS/TV), and trabecular number (Tb.N) of each group were compared and analyzed using a micro-CT scanning system. The expression levels of various inflammatory factors [tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6)], and cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The expression levels of mitogen-activated protein kinase p38 (p38 MAPK), phosphorylation-p38 MAPK (p-p38 MAPK), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), and phosphorylation-JNK (p-JNK) were measured by western blotting. ResultsThe staining of cartilage sections of rat knee joints showed that the articular surface defects in the model group were severe, while the cartilage destruction in the intervention group was relatively reduced. Micro-CT results showed that Tb.BV/TV, Tb.BS/TV and Tb.N in the intervention group were significantly higher than those in the model group (P < 0.05); the Mankin score in the model group was significantly higher than that in the blank group (P < 0.05), the Mankin score in the intervention group was significantly lower than that in the model group (P < 0.05); while the OARSI score in the intervention group was significantly lower than that in the model group (P < 0.05). The results of the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay showed that the serum levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and COMP in the model group were significantly higher than those in the blank group (all P < 0.05), while those in the intervention group were significantly lower than in the model group (P < 0.05). Western blot results showed that the expression levels of p-p38 MAPK and p-JNK in the knee cartilage tissue were significantly lower in the intervention group than in the model group (both P < 0.05), and significantly higher in the model group than in the blank group (both P < 0.05). ConclusionFraxetin may play a therapeutic role in a monosodium iodoacetate-induced rat model of osteoarthritis through the p38 MAPK pathway.

Aim To explore the effect and mechanism of the artesunate(ART)on hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods The cell lines MHCC-97H and HCC-LM3 were used to be detected.MTT and clone formation were used to determine the cell proliferation;Wound healing was used to detect the cell migration;Transwell was used to test the cell invasion.Flow-cy-tometry was used to detect cell apoptosis and cell cy-cle.RNA-seq and qRT-PCR was used to detect the genes expression.Results The proliferation,migra-tion and invasion of treated cells were obviously inhibi-ted(P<0.01).Moreover,the apoptosis rate in-creased significantly,so did the proportion of G2/M cells.Transcriptomic analysis identified GADD45A as a potential target of ART through RNA-sequencing da-ta,and suggested that ART might induce apoptosis and cell cycle arrest through regulating the expression of GADD45A.In addition,the results of mechanism studies and signaling analysis suggested that GADD45A had interaction with its upstream gene NACC1(nucle-us accumbens associated 1).Moreover,after ART treatment,the expressions of GADD45A and NACC1 were changed significantly.Conclusion ART may be a potential drug to resist HCC by affecting the expres-sion of GADD45A and its upstream gene NACC1,which provides a new drug,a new direction and a new method for the clinical treatment of HCC.

Objective:To study the serological characteristics of ABO*A2.08 subtype and explore its genetic molecular mechanism.Methods:ABO blood group identification was performed on proband and her family members by routine serological methods.ABO genotyping and sequence analysis were performed by polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific primer(PCR-SSP),and direct sequencing of PCR products from exons 6 and 7 of ABO gene were directly sequenced and analyzed.The effect of gene mutation in A2.08 subtype on structural stability of GTA protein was investigated by homologous protein conserved analysis,3D molecular modeling and protein stability prediction.Results:The proband's serological test results showed subtype Ax,and ABO genotyping confirmed that the proband's genotype was ABO*A207/08.Gene sequencing of the proband's father confirmed the characteristic variation of c.539G>C in the 7th exon of ABO gene,leading to the replacement of polypeptide chain p.Arg180Pro(R180P).3D protein molecular modeling and analysis suggested that the number of hydrogen bonds of local amino acids in the protein structure was changed after the mutation,and protein stability prediction showed that the mutation had a great influence on the protein structure stability.Conclusion:The mutation of the 7th exon c.539G>C of ABO gene leads to the substitution of polypeptide chain amino acid,which affects the structural stability of GTA protein and leads to the change of enzyme activity,resulting in the A2.08 phenotype.The mutated gene can be stably inherited.

Objectives:We aimed to compare the impact of dissection and re-entry(DR)recanalizing pattern with non-DR on the in-hospital results and prognostic outcomes of patients treated successfully by percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)of chronic total occlusion(CTO)and examine the benefit of DR in CTO PCI. Methods:A total of 815 consecutive patients with CTO meeting the inclusion criteria in the Department of Cardiology of the First Affiliated Hospital of PLA Air Force Military Medical University from January 2018 to December 2020 were enrolled and divided into DR group(n=239)and non-DR group(n=576)according to whether DR recanalizing pattern was used in the procedure.The clinical characteristics,coronary angiographic characteristics,procedure results,and complications were collected,and the prognostic outcomes within one year after the procedure were observed.Propensity score matching by the clinical and coronary angiographic characteristics was performed and results were compared with 208 matched patients in each group.The endpoints were the major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)consisting of all-cause death and myocardial infarction,clinically driven target vessel revascularization(TVR)one year after the procedure,and in-hospital outcomes. Results:The mean age of all patients was(60.9±10.9)years old,and 87.4%were male.As compared with the non-DR group,the proportion of blunt cap,ambiguous,calcification,angle>45°,and diseased landing zone,as well as mean J-CTO score was higher in the DR group(all P<0.05).The mean stent length and median procedure time were longer in the DR group,median guidewires and consumed contrast volume was also higher in the DR group(all P<0.001).Incidence of in-hospital death,myocardial infarction,perforation,side branch loss,bleeding of BARC 3rd grade and above,and contrast-related impairment of renal function were similar between the two groups(all P>0.05).However,peripheral vascular complications occurred more frequently in the DR group(P=0.007).One year after the procedure,the incidence of MACE(2.9%vs.2.4%,log-rank P=0.750)and clinically driven TVR(5.8%vs.3.9%,log-rank P=0.365)as well as all-cause death(2.9%vs.1.0%,log-rank P=0.154)and myocardial infarction(0.5%vs.1.9%,log-rank P=0.184)were similar between the two matched groups.Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed no significant association between DR and MACE(HR=1.129,95%CI:0.427-2.979,P=0.807)and TVR(HR=0.606,95%CI:0.213-1.722,P=0.347).LVEF≤40%(HR=2.775,95%CI:1.137-6.774,P=0.025)and elevated residual SYNTAX score(HR=1.089,95%CI:1.032-1.150,P=0.002)were risk factors for MACE,and diseased landing zone(HR=2.144,95%CI:1.019-4.513,P=0.045),rescued ADR(HR=3.479,95%CI:1.109-10.919,P=0.033),and prolonged procedure time(HR=1.007,95%CI:1.002-1.013,P=0.007)were risk factors for TVR. Conclusions:CTO lesion recanalized with PCI utilizing DR operation pattern was associated with more complex characteristics,more devices and time consumed,and longer stent length,while no significant association was observed between DR operation pattern and MACE and TVR one year after the procedure,as well as in-hospital complication..

Objective To analyze the status of occupational hazards in key positions of the small and micro book and newspaper printing enterprises in Beijing City. Methods A total of 16 small and micro printing enterprises in Beijing City were selected as the research subjects using the judgment sampling method. The status of occupational hazard was assessed using on-site occupational health investigations. The volatile chemical components in organic solvents such as inks and cleaning agents used in the workplace, the level of chemical hazardous agents in the air, and noise intensity were detected and analyzed. Results A total of 1 105 workers from 16 small and micro printing enterprises were included. The occupational hazard exposure rate was 22.2% (245/1 105), with chemical hazardous agents and noise exposure rates of 13.5% and 22.2%, respectively. The rate of compliance with occupational health training among the head of the enterprise and the occupational health management personnel, the regular detection rate of occupational hazards in last year, and the rate for the occupational health examination in last year were both 100.0%. The rate for annual update of occupational hazard project reporting was 93.8% (15/16). The usage rates of gas mask and noise-proof earplug were 68.8% (11/16) and 50.0% (8/16), respectively. The effectiveness rates of anti-toxic and noise-reduction facilities were 87.5% (14/16) and 62.5% (10/16). The sign setting rates of chemical hazardous agents and noise warning were 93.8% (15/16). Acetone and isopropanol were found in ink and cleaning agents in 15 printing enterprises, while toluene, xylene, and ethylbenzene were found in three, two, and one enterprise, respectively. Benzene, 1,2-dichloroethane, n-hexane, and trichloroethylene were not found in all 16 enterprises. Both the exposure concentration of short term and exposure concentration of time weighted average of the above chemical hazards were lower than the lower limit of quantitation of the detection method in the workplace and work site air among the 16 printing enterprises, and none of concentration was exceeded the national standard. A total of 240 noise work sites were detected, and the national noise-exceeding rate was 11.2%(27/240). Conclusion Noise hazards are prominent in the small and micro printing enterprises in Beijing City, and attention should be paid to the prevention and protection of noise-exposure. The usage rate of personal protective equipment is not high, and the training and on-site supervision management of protective equipment wearing in workers should be strengthened.
