Objective: To explore the association of vegetables and fruits intake with depressive symptoms among multi ethnic first year junior high school students in Yunnan Province, so as to provide data support for preventing and reducing depressive symptoms among first year junior high school students. Methods: From October to December 2022, a cluster random sampling method was used to select 8 500 first year junior high school students from 11 ethnic minority areas in Yunnan Province (Fugong County, Longling County, Longyang District, Luchun County, Mojiang County, Nanjian County, Qiaojia County, Shuangjiang County, Tengchong City, Yuanmou County, Zhenyuan County), to investigate with a questionnaire. The Dietary Frequency Questionnaire was used to collect dietary behavior datas, and the Chinese version of Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21) was used to assess depressive symptoms. The generalized linear model was used to analyze the association of vegetable and fruit intake with depressive symptoms in students, and stratified analysis was performed according to ethnicity. Results: The detection rate of depressive symptoms among first year junior high school students in Yunnan Province was 29.5%. The detection rates of depressive symptoms in Han and minority first year junior high school students were 26.9% and 31.6%. After controlling for demographic variables such as gender, age, family residence and other confounding factors, the generalized linear model analysis results showed that the intake of leafy vegetables ( β= -0.07 , 95%CI =-0.12 to -0.01), flat fruits ( β=-0.06, 95%CI =-0.12 to -0.00) and hot natured fruits ( β=0.11, 95%CI = 0.04- 0.17) were associated with depressive symptoms in Han first year junior high school students (all P <0.05). The intake of melon and fruit vegetables ( β=-0.06, 95%CI =-0.11 to -0.01) and hot natured fruits ( β=0.06, 95%CI =0.01-0.12) were associated with depressive symptoms in ethnic minority first year junior high school students (both P <0.05). Conclusions The intake of vegetables and fruits among multi ethnic first year junior high school students in Yunnan Province is related to the risk of depressive symptoms. It is suggested to strengthen the consumption guidance and education of vegetables and fruits to prevent depressive symptoms among first year junior high school students.

Objective To investigate the relationship between sleep disorders and coronary heart disease through big data combined with Mendelian randomization analysis.Methods Data from 2005 to 2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in the United States were utilized.Logistic regression analysis was employed to evaluate the association between sleep disorders and coronary heart disease,while analyzing relevant influencing factors.A two-sample Mendelian randomization approach was implemented using Genome-Wide Association Studies to establish causal relationships.Results Logistic regression analysis demonstrated a significant association between sleep disorders and coronary heart disease(P＜0.001),with the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio serving as a mediating factor in this relationship(P＜0.001).Mendelian randomization analysis revealed a positive correlation between sleep disorders and coronary heart disease(OR=1.030,95％CI:1.01-1.04).Conclusion Sleep disorders can increase the risk of coronary heart disease by activating inflammatory factors.

Objective:To develop a treatment-related quality of life scale for Chinese patients with multiple myeloma (MM) and to test its reliability and validity.Methods:The initial scale was constructed through a literature search, Delphi expert correspondence, and cognitive testing. This study conducted a preliminary survey of 379 patients with MM and a formal survey of 865 patients from the hematology departments of 155 hospitals nationwide from February 2024 to March 2024. The final scale was obtained after conducting item analysis and reliability and validity tests on the initial scale.Results:The constructed scale contains 36 items covering six domains: physiological, psychological, social, treatment side effects, general health, and others. In the preliminary survey, the Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of each item ranged from 0.597 to 0.939, and the test-retest reliability was 0.747 ( P<0.001). Exploratory factor analysis extracted eight common factors with a cumulative variance contribution of 60.058%. In the formal survey, the Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of each item ranged from 0.484 to 0.930, and the test-retest reliability was 0.835 ( P<0.001). Confirmatory factor analysis revealed a comparative fit index of 0.750, a root-mean-square error of approximation of 0.090, and a root-mean-square residual of 0.067. Conclusion:The treatment-related quality of life scale for Chinese patients with MM designed in this study exhibited good reliability and validity, reflecting the impact of treatment on the quality of life of patients. This scale can provide a reference to clinicians for assessing the disease status of patients.

Cardioembolic stroke is a special type of ischemic stroke caused by cardiac diseases， and its development is closely associated with the structural and functional abnormalities of the heart. The pathophysiological mechanisms of this type of stroke are complex. It is often induced by thrombosis due to cardiac diseases， followed by thrombus detachment and entry into cerebral vessels， leading to ischemic injury and subsequent cascade reactions. Inflammatory response plays a crucial role in the development and progression of cardioembolic stroke， being involved in processes ranging from thrombosis to acute-phase brain injury after embolism， short-term neurological recovery， and long-term prognosis prediction， and can also be used as a biomarker and diagnostic factor. This article summarizes the mechanism by which inflammation contributes to the development and progression of cardioembolic stroke， as well as the current research advances in the etiology of cardioembolic stroke， the recovery of neurological function after stroke， and personalized treatment strategies.

OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy and safety of different daily doses of aspirin in the prevention of preeclampsia （PE）. METHODS The case-control studies and prospective randomized controlled trials on aspirin with daily dose ≥ 100 mg （trial group） vs. ＜100 mg （control group） in the prevention of PE were retrieved from PubMed， Medline， Embase， the Cochrane Library， CNKI， China Biomedical Literatue Database and Wanfang Data from base-building to January 2025. After literature screening， data extraction and quality evaluation， meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software. RESULTS A total of 11 literatures were included， involving 3 052 pregnant women. Meta-analysis showed the incidence of PE [RR＝0.63， 95%CI （0.53，0.76）， P＜0.000 01]， gestational hypertension [RR＝0.69， 95%CI （0.50，0.94），P＝0.02]， preterm birth [RR＝0.56， 95%CI （0.47，0.66）， P＜0.000 01]， and intrauterine growth retardation [RR＝0.73，95%CI （0.61，0.87），P＝0.000 5] in trial groups were significantly lower than control group. The incidence of postpartum hemorrhage between the two groups had no statistically significant difference [RR＝1.17， 95%CI （0.90，1.53），P＝0.25]. Subgroup analysis showed that the incidence of PE in Chinese pregnant women taking 150 mg of aspirin was significantly higher than taking 100 mg of aspirin [RR＝3.40， 95%CI （1.29， 8.93）， P＝0.01]； but there was no significant difference between the two groups in the incidences of postpartum hemorrhage， preterm birth （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Aspirin with daily dose ≥100 mg is more effective in preventing PE than daily dose ＜100 mg， with lower rates of gestational hypertension， preterm birth， and intrauterine growth retardation. It does not increase the risk of postpartum hemorrhage. For pregnant women in China， daily dose 100 mg of aspirin may be more effective in preventing PE than 150 mg.

Objective:We summarize the clinical characteristics of surgeries in which the thyroid lobe is used as a transfer flap to treat early pharyngeal fistula following total laryngectomy.We also provide useful data for improving the diagnosis and management of this condition.Methods:Retrospective analysis was conducted on data from 8 patients with pharyngocutaneous fistulas after total laryngectomy for laryn-geal and pharyngeal cancer patients admitted to Hunan Provincial People's Hospital(The First Hospital Affiliated to Hunan Normal University)between October 2016 and October 2023.The surgeons performed a double-layer repair technique that included local inversion and a purse-string suture of the fistula using the thyroid lobe as a transfer flap.Clinical data were collected to analyze postoperative outcomes.Results:All eight patients experienced successful pharyngeal fistula repair.Postoperatively,these patients were managed with nasogastric tube feed-ing,liquid diet,and prophylactic antibiotics to prevent infection.After 10 days,their diet was changed to oral liquids,and their nasogastric tubes were removed.All patients were discharged after complete recovery.Conclusions:Use of the thyroid lobe as a transfer flap in a double-layer repair technique involving local inversion of the fistula is an effective method for repairing early pharyngeal fistula after total laryngectomy.This approach offers several advantages,including ease of flap harvesting,shortened operation time,reduced patient discom-fort,high transfer flap survival rate,and rapid postoperative recovery.The clinical efficacy of this technique is well-supported,making it a re-liable option for the management of early pharyngeal leaks.

AIM:To investigated the mechanism of action of Yiqi tongfu xiere prescription(YTX)in treating mice with lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-in-duced acute lung injury(ALI).METHODS:According to the random number table,24 C57BL/6 mice were divided into 4 groups:control group(Control),model group(LPS),low dose group(YTX-L)and high dose group(YTX-H).Except for the control group,the mice models of acute lung injury were established by intratracheal instillation of LPS solu-tion(5 mg/kg).The low and high dose treatment groups were given intragastric administration con-tinuously for 14 days.After 24 hours,the lung tis-sue,bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)and serum of the four groups were taken for follow-up detec-tion.The degree of pulmonary edema was evaluat-ed by wet weight coefficient(wet to dry ratio,W/D)of lung tissue.The degree of alveolar inflamma-tion and pulmonary fibrosis were evaluated by HE and Masson staining,and the contents of BALF and serum inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and IL-6 were detected by ELISA.The protein expressions of α-SMA,FN,Col-Ⅰ and Col-Ⅲ were measured by West-ern blot.Determination of α-SMA,FN,Col-Ⅰ,MAPK,NF-κB mRNA expression by RT-PCR method.RE-SULTS:Compared with LPS group,the contents of BALF,IL-1β and IL-6 in serum,Wmax D ratio,lung pathology,serum α-SMA,FN,Col-Ⅰ,Col-Ⅲ protein expression and α-SMA,FN,Col-Ⅰ,MAPK,NF-κB mRNA expression in treatment group were signifi-cantly lower than those in control group.CONCLU-SION:YTX can significantly reduce the levels of pul-monary fibrosis markers such as α-SMA,FN,Col-Ⅰand Col-Ⅲ by inhibiting the activation of MAPK/NF-κB signal pathway,and improve alveolar inflamma-tion and pulmonary fibrosis in mice with lung inju-ry,suggesting that YTX can treat acute lung injury and provide a theoretical basis for the clinical use of YTX.

Isavuconazole represents a novel gen-eration of triazole antifungal agents for the treat-ment of invasive trichothecenes in adults.The phar-macokinetic profile of isavuconazole differs in spe-cial populations,including children,patients with ex-tracorporeal membrane oxygenation,those with he-patic or renal injury,patients undergoing blood puri-fication,and critically ill individuals and solid organ transplant recipients.These differences impact the safety and efficacy of patient treatment.This article presents the latest progress in the pharmacokinetic study of isavuconazole in these special populations.

Through molecular docking and experimental validation,24 SPF male KM mice were ran-domly divided into four groups:the control group(CON),model group(LPS),high-dose Yang Shuhua group(YSH-H),which was gavaged with drug solution containing 1 g/mL crude Yang Shuhua,and the low-dose Yang Shuhua group(YSH-L),which was gavaged with drug solution containing 0.5 g/mL crude Yang Shuhua for a 17-day experimental period.Mouse body weight was recorded during the experiment,and fecal scoring was done 1 h after intraperitoneal injection of LPS.At the end of the experiment,histopathological changes in the jejunum tissue were examined,and the expression of tight junction protein-related genes was detected.Compared to the CON group,mice in the LPS group showed significant decreases in villus height,villus height/crypt depth(V/C)ratio(P＜0.01),and significant increase in crypt depth(P＜0.01).The mRNA ex-pression levels of ZO-1 and claudin-1 were significantly decreased(P＜0.01).Compared to the LPS group,mice in the YSH-H group showed significant decrease in crypt depth(P＜0.05),significant increase in villus height(P＜0.05),and significant increase in V/C ratio(P＜0.01).The YSH-L group showed a significant increase in V/C ratio(P＜0.05),a trend of decreased crypt depth,and an increasing trend of villus height.The mRNA expression of ZO-1 in the YSH-H group showed a significant increase(P＜0.05)and claudin-1 showed an increasing trend.Luteolin,quercetin,kaempferol,eriodictyol,and the top 5 potential key targets TP53,IL-1β,TNF,AKT1,and IL-10 exhibited molecular docking scores less than-20.95 kJ/mol,indicating strong activity.GO and KEGG enrichment analysis suggested that Yang Shuhua compounds might act on enteritis through the TNF signaling pathway,IL-17 signaling pathway,and PI3K-Akt signaling pathway.The qPCR results showed an upward trend in the mRNA expression levels of TLR4 and AKT1,significant in-crease in Caspase-1 and ASC(P＜0.05),and significantly increased expression of NF-κB and NL-RP3(P＜0.01).The mRNA expression level of AKT1,TLR4,NLRP3,ASC,Caspase-1,and NF-κB decreased compared to the LPS group,with significant differences in Caspase-1 and NF-κB(P＜0.05).This study suggests that Yang Shuhua exerts anti-enteritis effects through multiple compo-nents and pathways,with blockade of the TLR4-AKT-NF-κB pathway possibly being a key thera-peutic mechanism for treating enteritis.
