Objective: To explore the association between parent-child connectedness and romantic relationships of secondary vocational school students and the moderating effect of peers romantic behavior, providing scientific basis for family and school health education. Methods: From March to April 2021，2 426 students from six secondary vocational and technical schools in Shanghai and Shaanxi Province were selected to conduct the survey by combining convenience sampling and cluster sampling.Electronic questionnaires were used to collect data on students family characteristics,oneself and peer romantic behaviors, and parent-child bonding. The t-test was employed for inter group comparisons, and binary Logistic regression analysis was conducted to examine the relationship between parent-child bonding levels, peer romantic behavior, and the romantic behavior of secondary vocational students. Results: The mother-child connection (2.63±0.77) was higher than that of father-child connection (2.48±0.78), with statistically significant difference ( t =6.83, P <0.01). Multivariable Logistic regression showed that overall father-child connectedness was negatively associated with students romantic relationships( OR =0.86，95% CI =0.76-0.97， P =0.02)and was only associated to girls romantic relationships when stratified by gender( OR =0.79，95% CI =0.66-0.93， P =0.01). Peers romantic relationships were positively associated with students romantic relationships ( OR =3.19-5.12, all P <0.01), and there was a moderating effect of the association between maternal connectedness and boys romantic relationships ( OR =1.67, 95% CI =1.05-2.66, P =0.03). Among boys without romantic peers, mother-child connectedness was negatively associated with their romantic relationships ( OR = 0.60 , 95% CI =0.36-0.99, P <0.05). In the total sample of Shanghai and girls of Shaanxi, father-child connectedness was negatively correlated with the romantic relationships of secondary vocational school students ( OR =0.84,0.65,95% CI =0.71-1.00,0.50-0.85,both P <0.05). Peer romantic relationships exhibited a negative moderating effect on the influence of mother-child connectedness on the romantic relationships of males in Shanghai ( OR =1.91, 95% CI =1.03-3.57, P <0.05). Conclusions The father-daughter connectedness is negatively correlated with girls romantic behavior, and peer romantic behavior weakens the correlation between mother-child connectedness and boys romantic behavior. Efforts should be made to enhance the parent-child connectedness of secondary vocational students and their ability to cope with peer influence, providing proper guidance for adolescents heterosexual interactions.

Fritillariae Cirrhosae Bulbus is the dried bulb of perennial herbaceous plants in the Fritillaria genus(Liliaceae family) and is a representative traditional Chinese medicinal material with distinctive regional characteristics. Clinically, it is widely used in the treatment of dry cough, bronchial asthma, and other respiratory diseases, possessing significant medicinal and economic value and being highly esteemed in TCM. Currently, Fritillariae Cirrhosae Bulbus primarily relies on wild harvesting. However, due to excessive collection, its wild resources have drastically declined, and all source species have been classified as category Ⅱ in the List of National Key Protected Wild Plants, exacerbating the supply-demand imbalance in the market. To mitigate this issue, large-scale cultivation through the domestication of wild Fritillariae Cirrhosae Bulbus has become an inevitable trend. However, its strict environmental requirements, low propagation efficiency, high seedling mortality, and immature cultivation techniques have severely hindered industrialization. This study investigates the domestication process of Fritillariae Cirrhosae Bulbus, focusing on seed propagation, seedling cultivation, and medicinal material production. It also reviews the species and distribution of wild resources, their endangered status, market supply-demand dynamics, and the historical and current development of domestication. The findings indicate that enhancing propagation efficiency, optimizing cultivation models, and distinguishing between seed propagation and medicinal material production are key measures to accelerate the industrialization of domesticated Fritillariae Cirrhosae Bulbus. This research aims to promote the industrialization of Fritillariae Cirrhosae Bulbus domestication and provide a reference model for the conservation and sustainable utilization of rare and endangered medicinal plant resources.

italic>Platycodon grandiflorum (Jacq.) A. DC is one of the most commonly used bulk medicinal herbs. It has important value in the fields of medicine, food and cosmetics, and its market demand is increasing year by year, and it has a good development prospect. In this study, based on 403 distribution records and 8 environmental variables, we used Maxent model to predict the potential distribution of P. grandiflorum under climate change. The results showed that the model simulation effect was the best when the Maxent parameter was FC (feature combination) = LQPH (L: linear features; Q: quadratic features; P: product features; H: hinge features) and RM (regularization multiplier) = 2.1, AUC (area under curve) = 0.901, and the model prediction showed that P. grandiflorum was widely distributed in 28 provinces of China under the current climate conditions, with a suitable area of 2 337 419.98 km². Under the influence of climate change in the future, the area of suitable habitat of P. grandiflorum showed a decreasing trend, and the distribution center as a whole showed a trend of northward and eastward shift. The distribution area of P. grandiflorum in the three main producing areas is affected by climate change, and the overall trend is that the future suitable distribution area of Chifeng in Inner Mongolia increases, while the future suitable distribution area of Zibo in Shandong and Taihe, Bozhou in Anhui decreases or even disappears under the SSP5-8.5 scenario (shared socioeconomic pathways). It is suggested to maintain and protect the ecological environment and germplasm resources of the reserved area suitable for the growth of P. grandiflorum, and increase the cultivation research in the expansion area of P. grandiflorum, so as to lay a foundation for the subsequent expansion of P. grandiflorum planting and to promote the protection and sustainable development of P. grandiflorum resources.

An integrated evaluation model based on the combination of traditional trait identification and modern chemical analysis was used for the identification of key indexes of grade classification and the establishment of grade quality standard of Lycium barbarum fruits (LBF) from Ningxia genuine producing area. Under the guidance of herbal examination and market survey, particle size, skin color and imperfection were taken as the external trait indicators; focusing on the comprehensiveness and validity of the quality evaluation, 2-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-L-ascorbic acid (AA-2βG), zeaxanthin dipalmitate (ZD) and volatile ether extractives were used as important parameters involving in quality evaluation in addition to the pharmacopoeia test items and determination indicators such as moisture, ash, water-soluble extractives, Lycium barbarum polysaccharide (LBP) and betaine. The quality differences between different traits and grades of LBF as well as the relevance between character and quality were further investigated by mathematical and statistical means such as t-test analysis, correlation analysis and principal component analysis (PCA). Furthermore, the activities of extractives from different grades of LBF were compared at cellular level. The results showed that LBF were mainly preferred for large and red ones; except for betaine, the other index components were relatively high (moisture and ash were low) in the first-grade and samples with bright-red skin color. Besides, there was a significant correlation between skin color and moisture, water-soluble extractives, LBP, AA-2βG and ZD contents. Considering the results of the study and the market situation, the present study took the grain size and skin color of LBF as the core of evaluation, and at the same time introduced the multi-indicator components including LBP, AA-2βG, ZD, water-soluble extractives and moisture to further guide the grading, and established the quality standard of LBF grades combining the trait indexes and the chemical composition. More importantly, in vitro cell models both preliminarily confirmed that the first-grade LBF played a more significant "nourishing liver and kidney" effect, which provided an experimental basis for the quality control of LBF and promoted the realization of high quality and good price.

Immunotherapy is an important breakthrough in canc-er treatment.Unfortunately,low drug concentration in tumor sites almost ineffectively initiates immune responses and thereby severely limits immune therapy applications in clinics.Nanoma-terials are well-recognized drug delivery system in cancer thera-py.Nanographene oxide(NGO)have shown immense perti-nence for anti-cancer drug delivery owing to their ultra-high sur-face area,chemical stability,good biocompatibility and excel-lent photosensitivity.In addition,functionalized modifications on the surface of NGO increase tumor targeting and minimize cy-totoxicity.This study focuses on reviewing the literature and up-dates on NGO in drug delivery and discussing the possibilities and challenges of NGO in cancer synergetic therapy.

Objective To explore clinical effect of different intervertebral fusion devices(cage)in treating postoperative recurrent lumbar disc herniation(LDH).Methods One hundred and forty-two LDH patients with recurrence after simple in-tervertebral disc nucleus pulpoideectomy from January 2019 to January 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.All patients were treated with combined underchannel fixation and interbody fusion and divided into a single anatomical group,two-anatomical group and a single banana group according to types and numbers of implanted cage.There were 51 patients in a single anatom-ical group,included 29 males and 22 females,aged from 39 to 65 years old with an average of(53.74±5.68)years old;body mass index(BMI)ranged from 18.62 to 28.13 kg·m-2 with an average of(22.08±2.15)kg·m-2;the interval between operation and recurrence ranged from 0.5 to 4.0 years with an average of(2.7±0.8)years;5 patients with L3,4,35 patients with L4,5 and 11 patients with L5S1;a single anatomical cage was implanted.There were 46 patients in two-anatomical group,included 25 males and 21 females,aged from 37 to 66 years old with an average of(54.52±6.02)years old;BMI ranged from 18.25 to 28.44 kg· m-2 with an average of(21.74±1.83)kg·m-2;the interval between operation and recurrence ranged from 0.5 to 5.0 years with an average of(2.7±0.9)years;4 patients with L3,4,32 patients with L4,5 and 10 patients with L5S1;two-anatomical cages were im-planted.There were 45 patients in a single banana group,included 22 males and 23 females,aged from 38 to 65 years old with an average of(54.49±6.45)years old;BMI ranged from 18.85 to 28.20 kg·m-2with an average of(21.63±1.59)kg·m-2;the interval between operation and recurrence ranged from 0.5 to 5.0 years with an average of(2.6±1.0)years;3 patients with L3,4,36 patients with L4,5 and 16 patients with L5S1;a single banana cage was implanted.Operation time,intraoperative blood loss,incision length,postoperative incision drainage volume,hospital stay and complications among 3 groups were observed and compared.The height of intervertebral space before and after operation,curvature of lordosis and the postoperative interverte-bral fusion were compared.Visual analogue scale(VAS)and Oswestry disability index(ODI)were used to evaluate degree of lumbar pain and lumbar function before operation,1 and 6 months after operation,respectively.Results All patients among 3 groups were followed up at least 6 months,and no cases were fell out.There were no significant difference in operation time,in-traoperative blood loss,incision length,postoperative incision drainage volume and hospital stay among 3 groups(P＞0.05).At 6 months after operation,the height of intervertebral space in two-anatomical group and a single group were[(11.08±1.78)mm,(10.95±1.62)mm],curvature of lordosis were[(12.05±1.86)°,(11.63±1.57)°],which were higher than those in a sin-gle dissection group(10.14±1.54)mm,(10.92±1.45)°,and the difference were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The inter-body fusion rate between two-anatomical and a banana group(95.65％,95.56％)were higher than that in a single anatomical group(78.43％)at 6 months after operation(P＜0.05).VAS and ODI of lumbar among 3 groups were decreased at 1 and 6 months after operation(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in complications among 3 groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion The three fusion devices could achieve significant results in treating postoperative recurrence of LDH,but the implantation of two-anatomical cage and a single banana cage are more helpful to maintain the height of intervertebral space and lordosis cur-vature of patients with postoperative recurrence of LDH,and obtain good intervertebral fusion results.

Osteoporosis is an important cause of internal fixation loosening after spinal surgery.Cement-augmented pedicle screw instru-mentation(CAPSI)technique is the most widely used technique in clinical practice to improve the stability of pedicle screw,mainly applied in osteoporosis and revision surgery,which included conventional solid pedicles crews and fenestrated/cannulated pedicle screws technique.CAPSI technique may cause cement leakage and pulmonary embolism,and there is no consensus on its indications or technical points.Therefore,this article reviews the research progress of CAPSI,in order to provide relevant reference for clinical practice.

This study was aimed at understanding the serotypes,virulence,drug resistance,and genetics of the pathogenic genes from 29 strains of foodborne Listeria monocytogenes in Guizhou Province in 2022.The minimum inhibitory concentration(MIC)values against eight antibiotics were determined with the microbroth dilution method,and whole genome sequencing was performed on 29 L.monocytogenes strains isolated from food microbiology and foodborne disease surveillance efforts in the province in 2022.The genome sequences were assembled,and bioinformatics analyses were conducted to examine genealogy,serogroups,sequence analysis(ST type),clonal groups(CC type),resistance genes,and virulence genes.A total of 29 strains of L.monocytogenes had resistance to zero to eight antibiotics,and carried six resistance genes.All strains of L.monocytogenes carried fosX,mprF,Lin,and norB.The 29 strains of L.monocytogenes belonged to 2 lineages(Ⅰ and Ⅱ):17 strains belonged to lineage Ⅱ,which was the dominant strain,and 12 strains belonged to lineage Ⅰ.The strains were classified into 13 ST types,among which ST8 was dominant,accounting for 31.03％(9/29 strains),and was followed by ST619 and ST121,accounting for three strains each.The strains were di-vided into four serogroups,with 15 strains in serogroups 1/2a and 3a;11 strains in serogroups 1/2b,3b,and 7;2 strains in serogroups 1/2c and 3c;and 1 strain in serogroups 4b,4d,and 4e.The strains were divided into 12 CC types,and one unsub-divided CC type,ST2348,among which CC8 was dominant,accounting for 27.59％(nine strains).A total of 25 virulence genes were found,which belonged to three virulence islands(LIPI-1,LIPI-2,and LIPI-3)and 23 CL types,including one or two strains each,and three CL types including two strains each.Foodborne L.monocytogenes in Guizhou Province has a low level of drug resistance,carries a high number of virulence genes,and shows genetic diversity in serogroups and molecular phe-notypes.These findings should strengthen the continuous surveillance efforts for Listeria monocytogenes.

Intracranial seminoma is a rare malignant tumor originating from the germ cells,usually occurring in the pineal gland or pituitary gland.In June 2020,the Department of Endocrinology at the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Military Medical University admitted a 20-year-old male patient with an intracranial germ cell tumor and spinal metastases.The patient presented with headache,dizziness,and visual impairment.Enhanced magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)of the head indicated thickening of the pituitary stalk.After multidisciplinary consultation,the patient underwent endonasal transsphenoidal resection of the tumor,with the pathological diagnosis confirming germ cell tumor.The patient received regular radiotherapy postoperatively.One year later,the tumor recurred and metastasized,leading to a second surgery for tumor resection in the thoracic spinal canal,followed by continued chemotherapy.The patient's clinical symptoms,such as headache and visual disturbances,improved,but he continued to experience panhypopituitarism and required long-term hormone replacement therapy.Early diagnosis of intracranial germ cell tumors is challenging,and they are prone to metastasis and highly sensitive to radiotherapy and chemotherapy.Early diagnosis and multidisciplinary comprehensive treatment can help improve the quality of life and prognosis for patients.
